202783 - Bright Idea - Chalk Sound waterfront rental
A beautiful villa, safe for young children, Basia the manager ensured groceries were pre ordered and delivered, items I had sent over arrived on time, house had everything that was needed and more. Nothing was too much trouble. We asked if we could get some lights for the beach and the following day 6 lights were put up! The location on the Island suited us as a family from grandparent to grandchild and all in between . Taylor bay was beautiful and across the road and the private beach with the villa was perfect and a luxury! Taxis were expensive so whilst we did eat out we preferred to eat in and make the most of the views!! Highly recommended.

Time of our lives
We had the most wonderful time at Bright Idea! We had a larger group, so the two guest houses were a perfect amenity for those who would like some privacy if traveling with a group. Both the main house and guest houses are beautifully decorated and updated. The views are outstanding and the private lagoon in front of the house overlooking the Sound is one of the most peaceful places I have ever relaxed. Just across the street is beautiful Taylor Bay with the clearest water and whitest sand I have ever seen. The house also comes with two kayaks which were perfect for going out and exploring. Simply put, I would highly recommend Bright Idea for groups of any size. Thank you for opening your home to us and allowing us to experience true paradise!
Great Villa - but watch out for the overcharged metered electrical usage!!!
The Bright Idea House was enjoyed by our family of six this past March, 2015. Location is great as well as the view of Chalk Sound. The rooms are a little smaller than pictured and the main house kitchen table can only seat four. Just outside is a table for eight.
Everyone is informed that the electricity is metered ... what one cannot get a straight answer on is HOW the electricity is figured. We rented through Travel Keys Luxury rental company which is represented on the island by Tranquility Property Management. For the past few months, since our rental I've tried to procure a credit for the electricity overcharge, but to no avail. Travel Keys HAS forwarded my messages to Tranquility Management but has been no further assistance. Since Travel Keys uses this management company - it should behoove them to be willing to do whatever to assist with the appropriate refund for the overcharge.
Just make sure you know the ACTUAL rate charged for per kilowatt hourly usage BEFORE you leave the island. The local electric company has it posted on their website (March was 0.1396 per kilowatt hour), but Tranquility Management (Basia) sent a message (finally) to Travel Keys June 4, 2015 that they charge USA .55 cents per hour! Beware!!!
Just what we needed!
We felt very fortunate to have such a wonderful villa. Our dive group of 4 couples travel together once every year and this year it was The Bright Idea Villa. It was our first visit to the island and Basia, the property manager, gave us so much information in advance, it made planning a trip the piece of cake!
The home is just as the pictures show, spacious and beautifully decorated. The layout is perfect for families as well as traveling couples, as everyone was able to have either a wonderful upstairs room, or pool cabana, all with their own bathrooms! The quality of linens, pillows, cushions and other décor are all wonderful and add to the ambience. We had plenty of space to hang out either together or privately. The living room is cozy with the built in couch - brilliant! - and you could always find one of us hanging out there reading or getting on the internet.
Basia's staff are all wonderful, very polite, Mi-Tuh was always checking on us and making sure we had anything we needed. We had a slight snafu with the new alarm system, and Basia went over and above in making sure we were not inconvenienced in any way (it was really no problem!).
Thank you for the many evenings we had enjoying the pool, beach and bbq while staring out at the gorgeous Chalk Sound. Yes, the property is outside of town - we wanted it that way! Just make sure you have a car so you can head into town for activities (Basia recommended Grace Bay Car Rentals and they were excellent).
We typically ate one meal at home and one meal out every day, either in Grace Bay, or nearby Las Brisas restaurant.
We also used Flamingo Divers and felt they were our favorite dive operations ever - that is saying a lot since our group consists of very experienced divers including two instructors.
No negatives here, just go and enjoy the lovely villa!
outstanfidi vacation
Basis, so glad you invited me to share. Bright Idea is a fabulous house. We were 8 family members and we all agree that we need to come back to this place. First time in the Turks. Weather was picture perfect the entire week. Loved that we had our own beach on Chalk Sound. Loved the kyacks and the serenity. Plenty of night life too. Good restaurants everywhere but make sure you rent a car if you come. Loved to explore. Basia, the only recommendation I would make is not to recommend Caico's Wheels. They don't have a spot at the airport and their cars are junk. They did try to make up for this with good
service but they need to update their inventory. Otherwise, a fabulous week wad had by all. Thank you
TCI gem
Basia and her crew were so professional and nice to work with. When an appliance needed repair, they addressed this immediately. Bright Idea is beautiful and quiet and chalk sound was so calm. Thank you for a terrific stay.
Delighted get away retreat
We were so pleasantly surprised by the privacy, tranquility and ease of our stay at Bright! No crowded beaches, quiet chalk sound surf lapping our private beach morning, noon and night. We enjoyed the comfort and simplicity of this villa. Felt so 'at home' every convenience we needed, excellent value, and lovely concierge service. Trouble free - the tennis courts and nearby Las Brisas restaurant (excellent fresh fish) very convenient. And the new living room was breezy (and cozy after dark) for family Movie viewing! Great convenience having the kitchen-pool-and beach- all within steps from one another. And one last comment- since my last visit- the upgrades - living room, beach chaises, extra air conditioners and washer dryer- all made our stay - once again- memorable. We will be back again as long as we can book our dates- in advance!!
