There's nothing wrong with picking your warm weather escape hotel purely by its cute name, is there? Luckily the  Green Turtle Club and Resort in Green Turtle Cay, Bahamas also comes highly recommended as the top pick of hotels in the Great Abaco Island area.

The Green Turtle Club is one of those romantically exotic places that can only be reached by boat, and the resort is housed on an island just three miles long, so you can quickly become familiar with the whole place. We like that, when we're trying to relax.

In fact the place has been there since 1964 so it's no new-fangled tourist resort, but a well established spot that many consider their favorite Bahamas getaway.

There is a mix of accommodation at the Green Turtle Club, including club rooms, waterfront rooms, villas and apartments, so whether you're making it a romantic getaway for two or a group vacation, you'll find the right kind of place to stay.

Daily rates are pretty reasonable: in peak winter a standard waterfront villa goes for $245 a night, and a three bedroom villa (sleeps up to eight people) for $635. Whichever room type you choose, they have a seven nights for the price of six deal.

The only thing we find a bit odd is their breakfast and dinner supplement, called the Modified American Plan, which means that for $48 you get two meals a day as well. We're not sure if they've modified the plan or the Americans ...

And finally, the question that was the first to come to our lips: are there green turtles at the Green Turtle Club? Well, we're still not sure.

They do rave about scuba divers being able to see an "abundance of sea life", so we're just hoping that includes some cute green turtles. Otherwise we'll want our money back.
