If you are looking for a comfortable place to relax, quality amenities and a convenient location to beach and town RENT THIS HOUSE. My wife I stayed here for eight nights and it was perfect for us. You will see breathtaking beaches, enjoy delicious local cuisine and meet some of the kindest people (if you can break yourself away from the incredible screened-in porch). The house is a few blocks north of the center of town, an easy walk or bike ride. You can be on the beach in two minutes by walking across the street.

The porch has a double hammock, a table and four comfortable chairs. It was the perfect place to enjoy our morning coffee and evening drinks while watching the world go by. Friendly people walk up and down the street and always return a hello and a wave. When the cruise ships are in, the porch is a fun place to observe the cruise passengers come to town on their segways, ATV’s and tour buses. You will be glad you are spending 7 days instead of 7 hours on Grand Turk!

The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking. It has heavy duty pots and pans, nice dishes and glassware, a gas range and a new fridge with icemaker. Coffee lovers will enjoy the burr grinder, nice coffee maker and brand new espresso machine. A grocery store is right around the corner, and the fish market is across the street. Reserve one night to purchase fresh fish. The boats come in around 6 and the local friends we met helped us purchase two beautiful fish. They were filleted right in front of us and cooked to perfection on our new gas grill- heaven! The bed, linens, pillows and towels were top-notch. We let in the tropical breeze during the day by opening the heavy wooden doors in the front and back, then turned on the air conditioning in the bedroom for a cool, quiet night’s sleep.

We did a lot of exploring via foot, and made good use of the brand new bikes provided with this house. A 2 day golf cart rental was handy for exploring the lighthouse to the far north and Governor’s beach to the far south. If you like to gather sea glass, the beach near the ship wreck on Governor’s beach is paradise! You may find other objects washed into the tide from the hurricane. We brought water shoes and wore them while walking on the beach and wading in the water.

The owner, Eric, and local house manager, Lisa, are very responsive to any questions you have about the house, town or island. We are already looking forward to our next visit.
