About this property
OCEANFRONT - PALM SUITE AT DRIFT VILLA
For the perfect Grand Turk adventure Drift Villa is located less than 100 feet from beautiful Pillory beach. The property was completed in 2019 with high-end finishes, original artwork and modern amenities and features a swimming pool out back surrounded by a large patio with modern lounge chairs plus an outdoor dining area with a gazebo and gas grill..
The Palm is 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 Chicago artist Brad Gibbs, 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.
The suite’s bedroom includes a queen-size St. Lucia bed, ceiling fans and beautiful porcelain tile floors. Palm also includes a built in washer & dryer. The living area and the bedroom can either be opened up to the ocean breezes or air conditioned.
The reef just offshore is a protected underwater National Marine Park with abundant sea life and an incredible 7000 foot drop off out at the “wall” which is a few hundred yards offshore. The beach is ideal for swimming and snorkeling and of course the island has world class scuba diving out on the reef.
Your hosts, Marc and Patsy, have been Grand Turk regulars for over twenty years and recently made the move permanently immediately expanding their family by adopting some 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.
Palm and its sister suite, Turtle, are available as an ensemble at a reduced rate. Please see Drift Villa’s individual listing for details:

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.
