Location: Grand Turk, Turks & Caicos Islands, Caribbean (4 Miles from Airport. We Meet Your Flight.)
Accommodations: Guest House, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 3-6)
Bryan's Beach House is a brand-new, gorgeous property in Grand Turk, just-up from the beach on a little, breezy hill. There is a private boardwalk down to our private beach. No beach by law, is totally private, but this one is as close to it as you're ever going to get!
It's 3 miles from town, there are no other guest facilities around here, and you could sunbathe here for hours, and never see another soul! The upstairs master suite, and downstairs apartment, are totally secure, with attractive bars on the windows, and iron gates on the doors, so you could sleep soundly and securely, and leave the doors and windows open, for the constant breeze.
The downstairs apartment is for the exclusive use of extras in your party, although there is an additional charge. No one, not known by you, will be rented the downstairs apartment.
There is an interesting art collection on the walls, and all-tile floors with Navajo rugs.
Scuba diving and snorkeling are the big things in Grand Turk, so don't come for the golf and tennis, or if you like crowds!
The 5,000 or so natives here are extraordinarily friendly, helpful and nice. My wife and I have lived here since building our house in 1980, and found it to be the safest and most hospitable island in the Caribbean. The island is 6 miles long, and only a mile wide, and was the original landing site of Christopher Columbus in the New World ... now scientifically proven beyond a doubt.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2009
I'm 70 years old, my wife is 61, and we're retired here from New York. The climate is extraordinary, with winter temps. in the 80's, summer in the 90's. It rarely rains, and we're enjoying our sunny retirement. I just finished writing my memoirs, and am now looking for an Agent & Publisher ...They're really funny! Any help, anyone?
Why the Owner Chose Grand Turk
The climate is great, the people are wonderful, and Grand Turk is very safe. There's nice shopping, with plenty of regular and gourmet food available. I always say, if you can't find it in Grand Turk, you probably don't need it! There also are several nice, reasonably-priced restaurants, and on the south end of the island (we're on the north end) is the Carnival Cruise port (the most popular in the Caribbean) with fun shopping, and Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Restaurant, bars, and free-form pool ... home of the wet bikini contest!
The Unique Benefits of this Guest House
Sun, sand, swimming, diving, and fun! And the free use of my nice pickup truck. Just buy the gas... Also free bikes. Good fishing off our beach ... the natives use handlines, thinking rods & reels are for sissies! So bring your own. Or I have have two spinning rigs. You can get tackle here. Last week they caught tissick (mutton snapper), a bone fish, and a tarpon right off our beach.
