Turks and Caicos IslanderTurks & Caicos Property Management and Vacation Villa Rentals

Voted one of “The World’s Top Ten Beaches” by Conde Nast Traveler, Grace Bay Beach lines the north shore of Providenciales in the Turks and Caicos Islands. The 12-mile long beach area is known for excellent restaurants, charming accommodations and one of the finest tropical beaches on the planet. Snorkel in the turquoise waters or head off the white sand beaches into one of Grace Bay’s two shopping areas for a day full of exciting activities.

Stunning Beaches and Endless Activities

Vacation is all about wasting your days in the Caribbean sun, and the lengthy beach at Grace Bay provides plenty of room to do just that. If you’re looking for something more adventurous, the island is bursting with water sports, site seeing cruises, and parasailing. Visit Princess Alexandra National Park to see marine life and explore Bight Reef, a great snorkeling location.

When you’ve had your fill of sun, take a break from the beach and explore Grace Bay shopping. Saltmills and the Regent Village, located right in the heart of Grace Bay, are home to all of your favorite souvenir shops, island décor items, artwork and a multitude of restaurants.

The warms waters of Turks and Caicos offer some of the best fishing in the Caribbean. There are numerous boat rental places across the island, whether you want to self-pilot or find a captain to explore with. Enjoy deep-sea fishing, the traditional bone fishing, or shark fishing.

When the sun goes down.

After a day of sunbathing or fun-filled outdoor activities, spend your evening enjoying the best of Provo cuisine. Caicos Café is a tried and true favorite for everything seafood. If you’re looking for an upscale, spectacular dining experience, visit Coco Bistro. For something more relaxed atmosphere, try Hemingway’s On the Beach. Another great dining location is Lemon Café, which provides an exotic menu and chic seating area.

After an exhausting day, have your meal brought to you. Arrange for an expert chef to come to your Grace Bay villa and prepare a meal there. No need to get dressed up for dinner when your living space can be transformed into a 5 star restaurant.

After dinner, take a long walk down the beach or continue your evening with some of Grace Bay’s nightlife locations. Many resorts offer nightly entertainment and on site bars. There is also the opportunity to mingle with the locals at bars.

Memories for a lifetime

Grace Bay is also an ideal place to celebrate your special day. Destination weddings, anniversaries and birthdays can all be celebrated on the sandy beaches of Provo. Newlyweds can enjoy the gorgeous Villa De Sol, a three-bedroom paradise characterized by exclusivity. A private swimming pool and beachfront location are just some of the luxuries associated with Villa De Sol.

Staying in a villa is an ideal opportunity to experience everything that Grace Bay has to offer. The many private villas in the Turks and Caicos are undeniably beautiful and located within walking distance of the area’s major attractions.
