Turtle Inn Resort, a beach resort owned by Film Director/Producer Francis Ford Coppola, consists of 25 cottages, a family pavilion, a large beach house and another cottage called the Star Fish Cottage.

The resort is located between  between Seine Bight and Placencia, a vibrant little town with reggae bars, resorts,  and eateries. So, if you want to stay at a resort that is totally relaxing, yet not too far away from town (4 minutes away by car), Turtle Inn is the luxury resort for you. Be forewarned that Placencia has the smallest main street in the world, according to the Guinness Book of World Records.

Francis’ Family Pavilion is a luxurious dwelling in Turtle Inn. It has two bedrooms with a third bedroom loft. This is one of the most private options at Turtle Inn. Francis’ Family Pavilion is surrounded by a wall and it has pool access.

Beyond the pool is a dining terrace with a fabulous view of the sea. Guests who choose Francis’ Family Pavilion have a full-time butler and other comforts from a luxury Belize resort. For example, they are treated to comfortable robes, organic bath products, and an intercom system that links to the front desk of the resort.

If you happen to be a fan of the  TV show the Shahs of Sunset, the Ka’ana Resort and Spa might look familiar to you. The popular Shahs of Sunset reality TV show was filmed at the Ka’ana, and the show aired in the summer of 2016.  Located  in San Ignacio, the Ka’ana offers guest suites (Master suite, Casita suite, Balam suite) and villas in one and two bedroom configurations.  One important difference between the the villas and the suites is that the villas have private pools. Ka’ana Resort’s decor is minimalist, yet luxurious.

What Can You Do at the Ka’ana Resort?

Well, there’s a two-acre organic garden, so you can look forward to fresh, organic vegetables for your meals. Other amenities include free morning yoga classes twice a week and a spa. The resort has its own space for yoga, open daily. Private classes can be arranged.

The Ka’ana Resort’s San Ignacio location places the resort near Mayan Ruins and a nature trail. So, it’s convenient to go horseback riding, have a jungle stay, experience history and culture during a tour of the ruins. You can also go zip lining, taking a helicopter ride or do some exploring underwater.

What’s So Special About Mahogany Bay?

The Secrets Wild Orchid Montego Bay in Jamaica provided the exotic filming location for the Love and Hip Hop Atlanta cast in Season 6 Episode 12. See the pictures below of where the cast stayed at the Secrets resort in Jamaica. Yes. There was the typical negative drama while the crew stayed at the resort. Yung Joc showed up with Treasure, trying to make Karlie Redd jealous. Then Treasure had something to say about Rasheeda’s relationship woes, which made everyone angry. We all love Rasheeda Frost. So, WHAM, Jessica Dime took a swing at Treasure to silence her, right there at Secrets Wild Orchid, which is a four diamond establishment, by the way.

Check availability and get the lowest rates for the Secrets Wild Orchid.

We saw Karlie Redd turn it up at one of Spice’s shows. Rasheeda had a heart to heart talk with (again) with Kirk Frost, but this time he agreed to get the DNA test that would tell if he’s Jasmine’s baby daddy. The group went on a yacht ride, where Jessica Dime’s boyfriend joined them. Waka, Kirk and Yung Jock had already crashed the girls’ only weekend, of course.

But the biggest surprise was when Jessica’s love, NBA Player, Shawne Williams proposed to her in Jamaica. As far as the drama on the show is concerned, we didn’t even know that they were headed in that direction! Wow, the secret was revealed at Secrets, wasn’t it?

If you watched the first episode of  Love and Hip Hop Atlanta in Jamaica, you saw a commercial for a contest to win a trip to Secrets Wild Orchid in Montego Bay (THE CONTEST HAS ENDED). Even if you are not the lucky winner of a trip for two to Montego Bay, you can plan your own trip to Jamaica and have a wild time like the cast of LHH Atlanta at Secrets Wild Orchid.

Secrets Wild Orchid is an adults-only all inclusive resort with another resort, Secrets St. James, right next door. Food, beverages, 24-hour concierge and room service, a slew of daytime activities and nightly parties, a mini bar, that’s restocked daily, pool and beach wait service, and Wi-Fi are included in your stay at the resort.

Accommodations at the Secrets Wild Orchid Montego Bay

The luxurious accommodations are what sets this inclusive resort apart from some of the others. All of the suites have a whirlpool tub, either a king-sized bed or two queen beds, a balcony, and of course that free mini bar, the one that’s restocked daily. For even more luxury, the preferred club master’s suite and the preferred club presidential suite have their own Jacuzzis for two or four people (and the rooms are much larger than the traditional suites).
