A Palm Tree Paradise at This Wonderful Oceanfront Villa
- Minimum stay:N/A
- Internet:Yes
- Pets allowed:No
- Wheel chair accessible:No
The wide variety of luscious palms surrounding this custom built home is just one of the things that makes Ocean Palms so special. The villa is set in over an acre of private land, with its own kayak and hammocks for exclusive guest use, unique murals and mosaics by local artisans and boasts up to the minute furnishings and décor.
The step entry into the pool is shaded which is ideal for children or adults who need a break from the sun. The main house has 3 bedrooms: 1 king with doors opening out to the pool and Caribbean Sea, 1 queen and 1 set of twin beds. The recently completed master suite with Jacuzzi tub is located just steps away from the main house and has its own gazebo with swing so you can sip a cocktail, watch the sun go down and be lulled by the gentle sounds of the ocean.
A dock with stairs down to the water affords instant access to the Caribbean Sea with its firm, sandy bottom. Keep an eye out for schools of dolphins. Snorkel to the sunken Haitian wreck close by and enjoy the variety of sea life in these tropical turquoise waters.
Ocean Palms is a versatile home away from home, which is perfectly suited to either couples or families. You probably won’t want to leave this villa once you arrive but you will probably have to eat! Luckily, you are barely 10 minutes away from Grace Bay, a good supermarket, and a wide selection of restaurants and bars.

Outstanding Stay at Ocean Palms Villa

We spent a week at Ocean Palms Villa including over Xmas 2012 and it was one of the best Caribbean vacations we have had. There were 6 adults (2 parents and 4 adult children in their 20s) traveling as a family and the villa provided a great layout and plenty of room for everyone. All BRs had their own bath and water was not an issue unlike other Villas we have rented. The Villa is on the Turtle Tail Peninsula which is in a quiet and safe area. The Villa sits on a very private lot and is right on the ocean. So with a pool, walk down steps to the ocean for swimming and snorkeling, and the comforts of the villa it was hard to drag people to the people. A kayak allowed access to a small beach and the road by the Villa was a quiet area for jogging in the AM. The villa is even nicer than in the pictures. It is a breathtaking location. Peter and Sally were a phone call away to answer any questions and Peter stopped in a couple of times to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. Peter also met us at the airport and helped to point things out and get us situated which was excellent. We had a great stay and would not hesitate to rent from Seafeathers again.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We really enjoyed a wonderful week at this villa. The view was amazing and the property was as wonderful as it looks in the photo's. Sally, Peter and Faith couldn't have been more helpful. We would definitely recommend this villa to anyone wishing to escape and relax. We could have stayed in all week and not left the villa had it not been for our two children wanting to explore the island. We loved the kayak and the water was breath taking. We would visit again and are missing the peaceful lifestyle. Ten out of Ten!!!!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We are a group of four couples and stayed at Ocean Palms for ten days from March 1st to March 10th 2012. This review should really start with the property manager, Peter Collier. He met us at the airport and helped shuttle our luggage to the villa, showed us every feature the villa had to offer and took care of equipping it with things that it did not have. Peter also suggested using Grace Bay Car Rental, using his name they gave us a 10% break on the two vehicles we rented which was a nice surprise. The villa was not lacking a thing. We only stayed at the villa one day and were out exploring TCI the rest of the time. After coming home late afternoons we would jump in the pool and bask in the sun until going to dinner. Ocean Palms is right on the water and has a staircase down to the ocean that several times we were able to go in for a dip and take the kayak out once or twice.I can't say enough about Ocean Palms, Peter Collier from Seafeathers, Todd and Leslie Foss from Grace Bay Car Rentals. If you should be looking for a private beautiful villa that offers all the amenities and is well maintained, then look no further.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, sightseeing.

We had a great stay at Ocean Palms. We have stayed in a number of villas in a number of islands and this was among the best. The location is amazing. The water, the sunrises, the sunsets, it even has it's own little reef to snorkel around right at the bottom of the stairs. Our kids (13 and 10) saw lobster, pufferfish, lionfish, squid and tons of beautiful tropical fish. The house is perfect. Everyone has their own little retreat when they need it but most of the time can be spent outside enjoying the view, the water and the sun. Turtle Tail is very convenient to the grocery store, all of the shops/restaurants. You enjoy all of the great aspects of the island but have privacy. Peter was very helpful and made everything easy and stress free. We had a great stay and look forward to coming back.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, girls getaway.

Words cannot do justice to our Ocean Palms Villa vacation. Peter and Sally were most helpful before our arrival answering all of our questions. Peter met us at the airport where we picked up our rental car and then followed him to the villa. We were impressed with the house as we made our way to the front doors - but when Peter opened the doors and we saw the house and the view to pool and ocean it took our breath away. We had arrived in paradise! Ocean Palms is beautiful and is laid out so that everyone has their privacy. The kitchen has all that you need to prepare and enjoy meals if you decide not to visit one of the many wonderful restaurants on the island. A trip to Da Conch Shack is a must. There are plenty of floats and the kayak made for great fun. The location of the villa provides beautiful sunrises and sunsets. But it is the view of the ocean that we could not get over. The water colors are amazing. Ocean Palms has televisions and wi-fi if you must have them. We enjoyed the peace, quiet and relaxation we had for the week we were there. Peter and Sally were just a phone call away if we had any questions or needed anything. We drove to both ends of the island and found some pretty beaches. All of the people on the island were very friendly. If you are an animal lover be sure to stop by the TCASPCA and learn about the island Potcakes. Besides our conch shells our Turks and Caicos vacation souvenir is a precious potcake that will be arriving to us in a couple of weeks. The one question we asked when arriving back in the real world was "Why did we leave?". Vacations don't get any better than this!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Our stay lasted 2 weeks and it was simply great. The villa exceeded our expectations by far and we found everything exactly as the homepage suggests. The house is at a wonderful location, we enjoyed its comfort, the beauty of the scenery, the privacy – and the friendly helpfulness of our hosts Peter and Maggie, who made us feel welcome from day one to the last minute! We can truly recommend the villa for a great, relaxing vacation!!! Or, as we Swiss would say in our Swiss-German dialect: "Äs isch wunderschön gsi! Merci viumau!"

Ocean Palms is the perfect house for just the right amount of privacy. The house was great for our family of five with plenty of room. There is a pool, the sea right off the dock, and a kayak to paddle out to the cays and the beach. We've stayed at Taylor Bay in the past and loved the beach. However, for the privacy, Turtle Tail is much preferred. We stayed for 10 days and never shared the beach with another soul. The proximity to the IGA was a plus, as well. Our family would recommend this house for anyone wanting to spend quality time together, away from the distractions of the resorts. We enjoyed every second of our vacation thanks to Sea Feathers accurate descriptions and availability to answer any questions.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

My husband and I just returned from our honeymoon a few days ago and are already planning our return to Ocean Palms! This was our first foray away from a traditional resort setting, and frankly, we are converts. The villa is extraordinary! It's a multi-million dollar property and it shows! The craftsmanship is meticulous, the villa and it's landscaping are maintained beautifully...but the VIEW is the real star!! The ocean views surprised me every time I looked out the window (almost all the windows face water!) or lifted my eyes from the book I was reading beside our PRIVATE pool. The colors of the water simply cannot be taken for granted. We thoroughly enjoyed the full kitchen where we made breakfast and grilled a dinner or two and dined outside (marveling at the view, of course!) The master suite was beautiful and separate from the main house. It had an impressive bathroom and closet space for hiding luggage so we could pretend Ocean Palms was our home! The porch swing outside the master suite was a favorite spot for drinking tea (or homemade margaritas...) and watching the colors of the water change. The property manager, Peter, was a highlight of our stay. He picked us up at the airport and had us follow him in our rental car to the villa and then spent time with us, helping us orient ourselves in the property and recommending favorite local spots to visit. While we fantasize about owning a property like Ocean Palms, I think we've contented ourselves with returning to this villa every few years with family and friends! Turks and Caicos is a very special place and Ocean Palms gave us the feeling that we were a part of the local community. Highly Recommended!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Trying to find the perfect travel accommodations to satisfy the varied needs of an extended family, including some adults accustomed to 5-star resorts as well as a special needs child, was not going to be easy, but we happily landed at Ocean Palms for our most recent holiday. A lovely, comfortable and secluded property which, once you relax on the loggia and enjoy the ocean view, you are quite reluctant to leave. Happily, after we stocked up with anything we needed from the IGA close by, we found that we only ventured out to eat the occasional meal or try a new beach. Laziness took on a new dimension here! Questions answered/needs met in a snap by Peter & Sally of Seafeathers, who went above & beyond to ensure our vacation was peaceful, hassle-free and a respite from everyday life, from start to finish.Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway.

We have been renting homes around the world through vrbo for several years now and with Ocean Palms, have found our new favorite! The villa has a wonderful layout that invites you to take in the incredible views of the bay from practically every room and seemed perfectly situated to shield you from the occasional tradewinds. As others have noted, the covered outdoor area was wonderful! We also appreciated that the shallow "kiddie" section of the pool was shaded, allowing the little ones to stay outside longer. There are also two wood-covered decks with comfy lounge chairs - one prime for the morning sun and one for the afternoon rays. In our opinion, the villa is located on the perfect part of the island: an easy 15 minute drive from the airport, close to the well-stocked IGA, on a calm and shallow bay, quite close to a 5 star PADI dive center, and on the quiet side of the island with homes on spacious lots and without the crowded high-rise condos. Sally and Peter of Seafeathers spoiled us... Whenever we needed anything - advice, directions, a gas can for the waverunner we rented, etc., they were right on it and truly made our vacation to a new place easy and welcoming! It seemed like we had our own private concierge, which was quite the value-added perk. We will definitely be coming back!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.
