We just got back from TCI. Our stay at this condo at The Grandview on Grace Bay was awesome. The condo was well appointed and exceeded our expectations. It was beautifully decorated .We ate all our meals on the screened porch. My son fell asleep several times in the comfortable red chairs on the deck. The view was spectacular. The kayaks were a plus! Thanks Vanessa for a wonderful week and for the Champagne!

Owner response:Delighted to hear you had such a nice time and the red chairs served their purpose well! Take care and I hope you have a wonderful summer!

My wife and I along with our son, daughter-in-law and their wonderful daughters aged 5 and 3 stayed a week. I would pick this accommodation over anything I saw while in Turks and Caicos. We could not have been more pleased. The condo was exactly as described. The photos were perfect. The owner had the place in tip-top condition. It was a true pleasure working with owner. I would not only recommend but I hope to go back soon and to stay here!

Owner response:Thank you Reagan for your very kind words. Vanessa

We just returned home from an INCREDIBLE week at the Grandview on Grace Bay. When we arrived, we were greeted with a huge fruit basket...delicious. Suite 301 is a marvelous 3 bedroom, 3 bath suite overlooking the pool and ocean. It was PERFECT for our family. We have a 3 year old girl and 4 month old boy. We took along a friend to help with the children and she stayed in the master suite upstairs. Having two master suites (1 upstairs & 1 downstairs) is wonderful and each bedroom had it's own bathroom. The photos provided are true to the condo and the living room/dining room are even bigger in person. We loved the open concept and high ceilings, the screened in porch, and outdoor balcony. The red chairs overlooking the ocean are amazing & a great fit. We loved the privacy and seclusion of the pool and beach. We felt like it was all ours for the entire week. The water was AMAZING, crystal clear, and the temperature was just perfect. We have found paradise and can't wait to book our next stay. I don't think we could find a better place to stay on Grace Beach...this place has it ALL...beautiful, stylish, and up to date furnishings and decor, everything you could want or need in the kitchen, brand new flatscreen tv's & dvd's in all bedrooms & living room, baby gear (high chair, pack-n-play crib, pool/beach toys, books), privacy as there are only 18 units, the wonderful ocean breezes, sunrises & sunsets making our stay marvelous. Thank you, Vanessa & family!

We just got back from a fantastic stay at the Grandview. They had a huge fruit basket greeting us on arrival at the unit and we never did make it through the whole thing - yummy. Grandview is sooo quiet and we felt like we had the place to ourselves. Our little ones (ages 3.5 and 16mos) loved the unit and going to the pool after the beach. We always had the pool all to ourselves and often times the beach to ourselves. The unit has great equipment for families with kids (high chair, pack n play, swim rafts/toys, kid plates and utensils, gate). There are new flat screen TVs in all the rooms and we were able to hook up the laptop to the TV to watch movies off harddrive (easier than packing DVDs - just watch out for DRM restrictions on movies). Grandparents down to kids were happy. The screened in porch was a definite plus and the only one there out of the top floor units. We could eat outside and not have to worry about flies or bugs annoying us in the evening/dusk. It also let the little ones wander out but we wouldn't have to worry about them edging too close to the balcony. Also, having wifi was a definite plus - never had any problems with it. It's a corner unit looking out on the public beach access lot and over to Royal West Indies. It might get a little bit more noise but wasn't really too distracting especially if the windows are closed, AC is on and TV running in the afternoons. Had a small glitch with the AC the first 2 days but they had it fixed within 30hrs of notice and all was glorious. Not sure if we opened and closed the fridge too often in a short period of time, so we would to reset it a few times because the temp would increase/warm up. We would definitely rent this place again if we came back with the full family. The location is between Royal West Indies and Grace Bay Club about 1km from the Graceway Gourmet grocery (which has awesome chocolate croissants). There is also a bakery right at the end/up the road from the Grandview. Would highly recommend getting a car to get about the island and to get to snorkeling at the Bight Reef (by Coral Gardens and Windsong) - it's very easy to drive around the island. Grace Bay Car rentals had the car waiting for us at the Grandview and they took the whole family in a shuttle van to the Grandview so we wouldn't have to worry about driving ourselves there while still getting familiar with the area. Drive out to Taylor Bay/Sapodilla Bay if you can - gorgeous and great for small kids.

We loved our stay at this Grandview penthouse condo. The view from the two larger bedrooms and the screened in porch was spectacular. In fact, you can wake up to the sights and sounds of Grace Bay without even lifting your head from your pillow. The unit is an end unit and gets a nice breeze so we never used air conditioning. The condo was spacious, clean and stocked with everything we could possibly want. I am on VRBO now booking another trip to Provo - this time for just two of us - and I'd book this property again if it came in a one-bedroom version.

Owner response:Thanks Susan! You are awesome!

This is the most beautiful location I have ever visited. The water is the brightest turquois I have ever seen and the beaches are white and fluffy! I would highly recommend T&C and this Grandview condo to anyone. We were there May 8-15, 2010 and we practically had the place to ourselves. The weather couldn't have been more perfect, 80+ degrees with a slight breeze every day. We were able to easily purchase things to cook on the way to the condo from the airport (just ask and they will stop and wait for you). We could walk to a number of decent restaurants close by. The West Indies is right next door and served reasonably priced meals and drinks. We did the conch/snorkling tour mid-week and they picked us up in the boat right at our beach. Never thought I would try conch salad! The condo was well appointed and met all of our needs. The views and sunsets were wonderful and we never had to share our beach with anyone else, and there were still enough people walking the beach to "people watch." There really isn't much of a nightlife, but we had a much needed quiet and relaxing time.

Owner response:Glad you had such a good time!!! V

A most comfortable, lovely and spacious 3-bedroom condo equipped with 2 full baths and 1 half bath, including a perfectly sized kitchen equipped with all the cooking amenities for a home away from home. A grand dining room table to seat many that flows into a very comfortable living room arrangement, with views off the back balcony of the amazing Grace Bay turquoise waters. Bedrooms are modern, comfortable and bright, 2 with spectacular views of the bay. Washer/dryer setup for optimal convenience. The luxury of a screened in porch with outdoor dining furniture and an open air balcony just beyond that, both situated with that amazing view again! A beautifully landscaped spacious pool and hot tub easily accessed from the condo, with a relaxing outdoor purgola structure with hammock and outdoor living furniture. A short boardwalk-like bridge leading from pool area right onto amazing soft sandy beach of Grace Bay. Beach lounge chairs and umbrellas at the ready for your use.

Your unit is really spectacular. The views were really unbelievable. The beds were so comfortable and everything was perfect. I could have stayed a month. I will send you some family photo's from your balcony. My cousins had the time of their life. It was perfect. I can't thank you enough for everything you did for us. Silver Deep was perfect. Banana boat was a blast. Unfortunately, the parasail boat broke down and needed to order a new part. I love the new supermarket! It is so clean and convenient.

We had a FABULOUS time. The condo AND the island itself was everything you promised and more. We were all very comfortable and had a very relaxing trip. I cannot believe how white and soft the sand was, how turquoise and warm the water was, how gorgeous that view from the balcony was, and how well the weather cooperated!!
