Ocean Palms Villa. Pool view overlooking the Caribbean sea in Turtle Tail
Location: Turtle Tail, Providenciales, Turks & Caicos Islands, Caribbean
Accommodations: Villa, 4 Bedrooms + No additional sleeping rooms avail, 4 Baths (Sleeps 8)
Keywords: Villa
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.

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!

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!" Edith and Hans Peter Hartmann

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.

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!

A wonderful stay at Ocean Palms

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.

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!

The Perfect Vacation

This was my first time staying at a villa listed on VRBO. The pictures on the website looked beautiful, but sometimes you just never know if the pictures are reflective. When I walked into the villa, all I can say is "breathtaking". The villa is absolutely amazing, as advertised. The rest of the reviewers were accurate in their assessment of Seafeathers (the management team). Sally and Peter were extremely helpful in every aspect (from recommendations to letting us park our jet skis on their private beach!) We knew that they were just a phone call away if we needed anything. I only needed to call on one issue (the blender was broken! Which would have been a tragedy!), but within 2 minutes Peter was at the door with a new one (not kidding!). In our party, we had two families, ranging from a 3 year old, pre-teens to 40 somethings (8 of us total), and we never felt crowded. The villa offered us all the luxuries we could need, wireless internet, flat screen tv's, dvd player, and an assortment of dvds, and books to read. Most of the time though, we found ourselves playing on this beautiful island. We were on jet skis one day, and another we were having a bonfire on the beach. We played in our pool and on the beach, we snorkeled (literally you can snorkel right in back of the villa - many great conch there!), and kayaked many times to the beach and for morning "strolls" (The villa was equipped with 1 kayak, so we requested an add'l one). We enjoyed a conch tour, and many hours just relaxing in the backyard oasis. I've been to many Carib. islands, and so far this is my favorite. The natives here are genuinely nice people. My jaunts on the island showed nothing but beautiful land and amazing turquoise waters. Some tips when you come to Provo: Grace Bay is around the corner, we were surprised at all of the American items they carry - wonderful! Don't forget water and ice. When using the kayak, you'll need two strong people to lift it out of the water when you return to the villa. You'll need a car. Other than that, all of the recommendations for island "things to do" Peter and Sally can help with. What an amazing time we had! Looking forward to returning!!!

The Best Vacaton We've Ever Had

A wise older friend once told me to save, invest, and don't be wasteful....but when it comes to family vacations, splurge a bit if you can. After all, you're creating memories that will last a lifetime. When we returned home from the Ocean Palms Villa on Provo our family of four agreed it was our best vacation yet. Ocean Palms was nicer than even the pictures that we looked at on the Sea Feathers web site. Our boys stayed in the main house and my wife and I enjoyed the large and private master suite. We had planned on doing more activities, but after seeing the villa we ended up spending most of our time right there. We loved the private pool and easy access to the ocean. We especially appreciated the kindness and hospitality of Peter and Sally Collier. While respecting our privacy, they made themselves available when we needed some help or guidance, and though we were just on the island for a week, we feel we have new friends in the Turks and Caicos Islands. We should have tried more restaurants, but we went to Da Conch Shack 4 times. My wife and I also had a very nice private dinner at Hemingways. I'd recommend the Colliers and specifically Ocean Palms to everyone. Mike/ in Alabama

Ocean Palms is a beautiful place, far enough away from everything that its quiet, peaceful and private, but close enough that its not a hassle to pick up groceries or drinks. The pictures you see are exactly what you get, the house is well maintained, clean and well stocked. As people who like to cook, we really appreciated the new Weber BBQ grill. What really distinguishes Ocean Palms from some of the other nicer homes, is the attention from Peter and Sally. Always there to help and offer advice, they are invaluable, like a great concierge team. Any concerns, questions or issues are immediately dealt with in a friendly and efficient manner.

We spent our perfect 1 week honeymoon at Ocean Palms. The property is exactly as pictured. Very private and peaceful. Very clean. Kitchen and BBQ were great- cooked most meals at home since the villa had everything we were looking for. We rented a vehicle to tour around. The villa was central to everything on this little island! Access to the kayak was great- even snorkeled off the stairs of our villa! Peter and Sally were very helpful, picked us up, brought us to our car rental and were a great source of information for restaurants and activities on the island. Would definitely recommend this villa to everyone!
