Villa Azul provided the perfect backdrop for a truly wonderful family vacation!
We were two adults and two teenagers (15 and 18) and stayed 3/24/2018 through 3/31-2018. Villa Azul provided literally everything we needed for a terrific vacation. We had a wonderful time at the villa--snorkeling, swimming, playing in the pool, long walks on the gorgeous and quiet beach, whale watching, shell collecting, watching movies, playing cards, etc. There are also are bicycles, kayaks, a paddle board, etc. The setting is perfection--crystal clear turquoise water all day followed by spectacular sunsets every evening and gorgeous starry skies at night--pictures simply can't convey the beauty and the relaxed nature of Villa Azul!
Friendliest of all Grand Turk residents are EG and Colin, who own the villa. They were both so welcoming and generous during our entire stay. EG met us at the airport with a big hug and gave us an orientation to the island on the way to the villa--grocery stores, shops, restaurant recommendations, historical spots, secret beach spots, etc. When we arrived at the villa, we fell in love with the contemporary island decor and they even had champagne waiting for us! EG and Colin were wonderful hosts!
The island of Grand Turk is so beautiful and relaxed---very low key. Don't be worried about the impact of the 2017 hurricanes---it's not an issue at all. You may walk on the beach for hours and see absolutely no one else. We enjoyed seeing most of island--went to the light house, walked through town, explored some other beaches, our daughter got PADI open water certified, we took a snorkeling excursion out to the shelf (loved the site called The Library!) and enjoyed some wonderful meals at various restaurants recommended by EG and Colin. Bohio had live music and a great BBQ on Saturday, Jack Shack is a fun place with delicious jerk chicken and conch, Osprey Beach is relaxed with great food and Sandbar has a beautiful location and fresh seafood right on the water in Cockburn Town. We also loved carryout pizza from Nanette at Berry's Too--delicious! We also cooked in at the villa, which has a beautiful, fully equipped kitchen and it's a pleasure to dine outside on the deck overlooking the ocean or in the breezy screened veranda. Grand Turk is just wonderful!
Book your stay at Villa Azul right now---you won't be disappointed! And thanks again to EG and Colin for all that you did to make our stay on Grand Turk so special. We'll be back!
