Royal West Indies - Turks and Caicos Islands

May 26th, 2010

Royal West Indies is on the East side of Grace Bay Beach and within walking distance to some shops and restaurants. It is very quaint and has beautiful landscaping. It’s quite small compared to other resorts so has a good amount of people staying at anyone time, not too busy. The rooms are slightly outdated [...]

Villa Renaissance - Turks and Caicos Islands

May 13th, 2010

As the sister property of the Regent Grand many things are similar here at Villa Renaissance from the exceptional service, amenities and location.

Turks and Caicos Trip Part 1

Turks and Caicos Islands #1 in Conde Nast Survey

November 28th, 2008

The Turks and Caicos Islands have taken the #1 spot in the Caribbean’s most popular destination pole from Conde Nast Travel. Sitting at the #10 position last year makes this quite a leap and a well-deserved one at that for a chain of less than 40 small islands and cays just south of the Bahamas.

The Turks and Caicos Islands are known for their celebrity sightings, luxurious resorts and gourmet restaurants, but above all, Grace Bay Beach, which has been voted the #1 Beach in the World. It is honestly the nicest beach you will ever touch down on, curling your toes into the smooth warm white sand, free of shells and other beach debris gives you a sense of eternal peace and not a care in the world. Beach umbrellas and loungers scattered along the 12-mile stretch of beach play host to affluent travelers, business moguls and many famous names who all know this is THE place to come for the ultimate pampering experience.
