Rent it today for your next vacation. Book now and receive every 7th night free!
At 1,486 square feet, the three-level English Cottage 1A features a breezy floorplan that combines true Caribbean style with English elegance and refinement.
On the ground level, a spacious veranda overlooks the island's only croquet lawn, an expansive grassy area punctuated with towering palm trees. A quaint sitting area makes the veranda an ideal place to greet the morning sun. Inside, on Egyptian tile floors under soaring cathedral ceilings, is an elegantly cozy living and dining area, furnished with fine decor hand-selected by Keith Baltimore's highly acclaimed Baltimore Design Center in New York, with prime pieces by Bassett, Palliser, Monaco, Batavia, and Jeffan.
Upstairs, the gourmet loft kitchen, perched above the living and dining areas below, features the finest in stainless-steel appliances by Viking, Italian granite countertops, and solid cherry-wood cabinetry. Down the hall, past the second bath for guests, is the private master bedroom with king-sized bed, walk-in closet, en suite bath, and flat-screen TV.
Downstairs, the secluded second master bedroom boasts a queen-sized poster bed and cozy sitting area. Nestled on the white powdery sand of Grace Bay, the 5-star Somerset was built in 2006 and named one of the select Small Luxury Hotels of the World in 2007. Its restaurant, O’Soliel, is quite simply the finest on the island.
By day, lose yourself in the crystal white sand of world-famous Grace Bay Beach, or glide through the glistening reverse-current lap pool or the vast infinity-edge pool overlooking the turquoise sea. Treat yourself to a cocktail or casual local lunch at poolside restaurant and bar LunaSea.
Following an unforgettable sunset, indulge yourself with the gourmet cuisine of O’Soleil, the resort's fine-dining destination. After a perfect day, retreat to the luxurious comfort of your home away from home, English Cottage 1A, a triplex 2-bedroom villa finished with the finest furnishings available anywhere.
Located 575 miles southeast of Miami, below the Bahamas and at the northern tip of the Caribbean, Turks & Caicos is as close to paradise as you will find on Earth.
Providenciales, or "Provo," offers the best of what the tropics have to offer: powdery white-sand beaches, the third-largest coral reef system in the world, and a seemingly endless supply of clear, turquoise water. Grace Bay Beach, a 12-mile stretch of pristine, flour-like sand, was recently voted Best Beach of All Tropical Islands in the World by Conde Nast.
The island was also highlighted in the premiere issue of Exotic Places To Retire magazine, which describes Provo as “a paradise of opportunity for relaxation and enjoyment mixed with an easy calm of security and safety.”
Good Housekeeping magazine touts the serenity of Provo: “There may be times on these white beaches when you wonder if the rest of the world has disappeared.”
Provo is no deserted isle, however. The luxury destination offers all modern life's conveniences, including a casino, 75 restaurants, numerous spas, and an 18-hole golf course Tiger Woods has challenged.
It's natural beauty is what lures vacationers, however. The scuba, snorkeling, sailing, fishing, horseback-riding, whale-watching and general R&R are second to none.
