Bahia Tortuga Restaurant - Bar

I've been to BT several times over the past few years. Unfortunately on our recent visit, we found that it is closed for renovation, under new ownership. It appears to have been closed for many months, and it appears that it will open under a new name and look.

What a fun spot on our private bar crawl! We had taken a taxi to Soggy Peso, had plenty of drinks there, and decided to walk back to Centro but just a few minutes down the road was Bahia Tortuga, and since it was just a little before sunset we decided to pop in! In my trip notes I wrote that we were greeted and supplied menus immediately upon sitting at the bar and had our drinks back in two minutes. I was hungry after drinking all afternoon so I ordered a grilled cheese - great comfort food! We walked around their private dock area a little, looking at boats and watching the sunset. We also enjoyed the dachshunds running around because we were desperately missing our two dogs at home. They had super clean, modern bathrooms here and it was much more chill when we went compared to Soggy Peso. We walked back to Centro, it was about 10-12 minutes for us to get back to our hotel (Casa El Pio), and it was a really doable walk after sunset when it was a littler cooler. Our bill was $160 peso for our two cheladas and my grilled cheese, so very good value! I would go again.

De este sitio me gusto la ubicación y el salón , tan bien decorado, es un lugar para ir con amigos a tomar unos tragos y pasar un momento divertido

Grouper sandwich is wonderful. Atmosphere very inviting. Closes around 8-9 PM out of respect for the guests who stay there. Good to see Danny again. We missed seeing Rhonda!

This was our second time visiting Bahia Tortuga and both times were great. Grouper sandwiches, cold beers, strong mojitos, wonderful conch fritters and cooling off in their pool is a perfect afternoon after riding around the island.
