About this property

New Oceanfront Villa! Twin Suites

Drift Villa:
Featuring two suites (Palm & Turtle) for complete privacy for a couple with kids or two couples sharing a beachfront vacation:

Drift Villa is located less than 100 feet from Pillory beach. The property was completed in 2019 with high-end finishes, original artwork and modern amenities.

Located between the aqua blue waters of the Caribbean Sea and the West Road Salina, Drift Villa features a swimming pool surrounded by a large patio with modern lounge chairs and an outdoor dining area with gazebo and gas grill. The prevailing easterly breezes ensure comfort for evening meals on the patio of your individual oasis.

From the sugary sands across the street at the beach to the refreshing rear patio swimming pool, Drift Villa offers convenience, comfort and luxury for your perfect Grand Turk tropical vacation.

Further Detials:

Palm suite is a spacious open concept one-bedroom with direct access to the patio and pool area. Appointed with original artwork by Chicago artist Brad Gibbs as well as local artists. Along with a dining area, washer/dryer and virtually everything else, the kitchen features new stainless steel appliances, including an in-unit ice maker for unlimited ice on a warm Caribbean day.

The suite offers a new, twin-size pull-out air bed. The living area and the bedroom are open to the ocean breeze and equipped with air conditioners.
The view from the suite takes in Pillory Beach's tropical waters with vibrant shades of aqua to deep blue--famous in the Turks and Caicos Islands.

Turtle Suites is also a spacious open-concept, one-bedroom suite with direct, walkout access to the patio and pool.  The living quarters are appointed with original artwork by Patty Vineyard, as well as local artists from the islands. The suite includes virtually everything to make your stay comfortable, with a kitchen featuring new stainless steel appliances and an in-unit ice maker for unlimited ice on warm Caribbean days.
The suite’s bedroom includes a queen-size St. Lucia bed, ceiling fan and beautiful porcelain tile floors. Palm also features a builtin washer & dryer with a stand-alone airbed available on request. The living area and the bedroom are open to the ocean breeze and equipped with air conditioners.

Located in a protected marine park with stunning ocean views and abundant sea life along the reef just offshore, the area is ideal for swimming and snorkeling. If scuba diving is your thing, the deep blue waters along the 7,000-foot, infamous “Wall" are not to be missed.

Your hosts, Marc and Patsy, have been Grand Turk regulars for over twenty years and finally made the move permanently this past year, immediately expanding their family by adopting three very sweet local “potcake” pups. Marc and Patsy live on the property and are generally available to help with suggestions and recommendations. They look forward to welcoming you and making your stay memorable.

Amazing stay
Drift was beautiful, comfortable and relaxing. Marc and Patsy took great care of us before and during our stay. The personal touches were evident on several occasions. The property is a relaxing oasis on a relaxing unhurried island. Sunsets from the porch were awesome, the pool was inviting and we loved the outdoor kitchen. The villas were well equipped and the beds were comfortable. Marc and Patsy were great hosts. We didn’t feel like they lived right above us, but they were always available when we had a need, a question or just wanted to talk. We learned a lot about the island from them. Grand Turk is great. Rent a golf cart and explore. We loved Governors Beach, especially on no cruise ship days; a stunning beach to ourselves. Blue Water Diving: snorkel and Gibbs Cay trip is recommended. We ate well at Hakuna Matata, loved the local hospitality at Barbie’s on Christmas night, and had some laughs and cold beverages at Bohio. A sunset at the Sandbar is a must and the jerk chicken at Jacks was so good. Back to Drift: the dogs were so sweet and well behaved. Bring Greenies and they will be your best friends. Marc and Patsy are the best hosts we have ever had the pleasure of staying with; it felt like we were staying at a friend’s place. We would go back tomorrow if we could.

Why they chose this property

We have been traveling to Grand Turk for nearly twenty years and always dreamt of someday living here. When the time was right, we started looking at property on Grand Turk and fell in love with this location because of the fabulous ocean views and proximity, the easy access to restaurants and grocery stores and the neighborhood. We were lucky enough to pick a building site that allowed us to build the home of our dreams with unobstructed views of the ocean and the island.

What makes this property unique

Unobstructed ocean views Beach access Beautiful patio with 5' deep plunge pool, gazebo and dining area Very clean and modern design Well appointed living space Professional landscaping
