Grace Bay Beach Ocean Villas, Gardenia Villa. Rated #1 On Trip Advisor.

GARDENIA VILLA is a large one room 1000 square feet 1 bedroom villa located at Grace Bay Beach Ocean Villas (formerly Atlantic Ocean Beach Villas).

Grace Bay Beach Ocean Villas (formerly Atlantic Ocean Beach Villas) has held the # 1 Spot on Trip Advisor for many years thanks to our unique beautiful villas, friendly staff, idyllic location and unparalleled service. We provide 5 Star service, for a fraction of the cost!

Gardenia Villa is a stand alone villa with a master bedroom, two sleeper sofas in the living room (so will accommodate up to six guests), a full kitchen, private bathroom and fully screened in porch. There is also a lovely deck over looking the canal off the master bedroom.

There is also a beautiful French balcony which overlooks the canal and our lush tropical gardens off the Master Bedroom too. Gardenia Villa is ideal for family's and is great value, making for an ideal choice.

Air conditioning, unlimited wireless internet access, local calls, daily fresh towels and trash removal with midweek full cleaning service is provided at no extra charge.

Gardenia Villa is located amongst tropical, landscaped gardens overlooking the canal and is very close to both our centrally located swimming pools.

There is beach access from the villa, which is just a few steps away to our private beach on the Atlantic Ocean.

Our street is a quiet residential road. It is not a busy or thorough fare road and dead ends into a cul-de-sac. There are only 7 other residential houses on it.

You simply cross the narrow road to go "through our own direct beachfront property". An exclusive stone walkway and path has been built for you to walk along that takes you through our properties lush Caribbean vegetation. The walk along this pathway is a short leisurely 150 feet and leads you directly to our beautiful beach and Atlantic Ocean.

Once you arrive, you will find sun loungers, chairs and tables overlooking the beach and ocean for you to use as you please.

Sarah and I live on island full time. We're always here to help and answer any questions you may have.

Our on site team will take wonderful care of you, but if for any reason they are unable to help - we're just a phone call away.

We provide you with a local cell phone so you can reach out to us whenever you need, or indeed make local calls to make dinner reservations etc.

We can assist with securing dinner reservations, booking excursions etc.

Our villas are just a short ride away from Providenciales International Airport.

If you decide to hire a car we can provide you with simple driving directions. It will not take more than 10 minutes from leaving the airport to reach our villas. You'll be on the beach in no time!

Alternatively you can catch a taxi from the airport to the villas. We recommend Glorias taxi and you can pre book your transfer with them prior to your arrival. We will provide you all the necessary details upon making are reservation with us.

Turtle Cove is a quiet residential area - with all the amenities of the busier Grace Bay area.

We are located on the western end of Grace Bay Beach - you can walk from our villas all the way through Grace Bay to Leeward. You get the luxury of the most beautiful beach in the world...without any crowds!

Located within walking distance the is the Turtle Cove Marina which is home to many of the water sports providers (we recommend Islands Vibes), a car rental company (Scooter Bobs) and several restaurants (Mango Reef, Sharkbite, The Naughty Gull, Simones, Tiki Hut, Magnolia & More).

Nothing is very far in Providenciales! Its very easy to get around.

Please remember that we drive on the left!

If you need direction to anywhere in particular - just ask, we pretty much know every last inch of the island and can ensure you get to your destination with ease.

The property manager rushed us on the way out on check out. We were moving as fast as we could and she rushed us. Bombarded into the house to start cleaning while all my clothes and items were still inside and was only 11:05. Checkout was at 11!! I did not like that! She also turned off the blow dryer that i was using to dry my wet swimsuit before i packed it up in my suitcase….

Great experience!
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Villas at Grace Bay. Everything was as advertised and the on-site attendant, Luze, was amazing. She was responsive, charismatic and very helpful. Although we did rent a car to see other beaches, our "private" beach was rarely crowded, picturesque, and provided relaxing time both in and out of the water. We felt secluded, safe and in our own private paradise. We rarely ran into the other groups that rented the other villas, but when we did everyone was good spirited. We highly recommend this rental for a couple or even a small family of 3-4. Paul and Carey

Wonderful day in Turtle Cove!
We very much enjoyed our 9-day stay! Very quick 5-minute walk to the beach, w/ dedicated beach chairs and umbrellas, though we ended up driving up the coast to Grace Bay (public access area next to the Sands resort) for most of our beach days because we preferred the calmer water there. It would've been wonderful (and saved us $) if they'd had portable beach chairs/umbrella/wagon for exploring the other beaches. Luce, the head housekeeper, was warm, friendly & very helpful. We appreciated the daily swap of towels and taking out of trash. The cleaning crew wiped down the kitchen and made our bed everyday, which was above & beyond. We ate breakfast almost everyday on the screened in porch. We were there for our honeymoon and they surprised us with a cute towel-swan arrangement on the bed with a bottle prosecco - very nice touch! Unfortunately, the bed itself was terrible - it was shored up underneath with two-by-fours which made it so loud that we were afraid turning over would wake the other person. The property is beautiful w lots of flowering shrubs and trees, two pools, and a crew maintaining it all daily. The provided cooler was handy & we enjoyed the upstairs porch. It took 20 minutes to get to either end of the island from Turtle Cove. We enjoyed dinner at the nearby Hideaway Grill & Chill and The Marine Room. Check out Facebook Groups for helpful communities that share their tips & experiences in Turks and Caicos - super valuable.

Relaxing quaint bungalow
House is just as pictured. You are on the canal and they do provide kayaks which is nice. It is a spacious unit but I would not put 6 people in here. One of the couches was broken and the one that did work was very uncomfortable per my son. The only TV in the living room looks to have had a rough life. There isn't a washer and dryer in the unit. The laundry is located under the house for housekeeping. Make sure you read the warning about creepy crawlies they will come out and eat your left overs. The beach is across the street you can't see it like the pictures insinuate. The grounds are beautiful with all the foliage. Id only recommend this location for couples or a family with small children.

Couples Getaway
Luze was waiting for us when we arrived. She walked us through the property and made us feel very welcome. We stayed in Gardenia and it was identical to the photos and more than we could ask for. The beach is so close and was so nice to have chairs set up and available every day. The place is beautiful and lush with trees and other flowers. It’s is a bit off the beaten path, but there are a couple restaurants and bars close by. The neighborhood itself is not in the best part of town but we felt completely safe on the property. You will absolutely need a car unless you never plan to leave the complex. The screened in porch was awesome, but I would highly recommend a ceiling fan (or two) out there! And the bathroom gets uncomfortably hot and humid. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend the property to anyone looking for a laid back relaxing vacation.

This villa was perfect for my husband and I during our week long stay. It had everything we needed and was in a perfect spot. Short walk to the beach and we were the only ones there. The pool was nice each afternoon. I would recommend renting a car if you stay here. I would highly recommend this villa!

We really loved the villa and the property and was so close to the beautiful beach! Everything was as expected as I had read the earlier reviews. Excellent place to stay, the only issues were the stove not really working well and there was no cell phone provided (that should probably be updated in the description.)

Can't wait to go back
The property was nice, well maintained and clean. Had everything we needed and is a short walk to nearby restaurants and marina. Kitchen had everything we needed to make meals, coffee and blended favorites. Short walk to semi private beach with loungers and umbrellas. Pools were nice. Has pools toys, larger ice chest, and kayaks for canal that leads to the ocean if you're up for it. Felt secluded, safe and quiet. Staff and housekeeping were fantastic. A short drive (or really long walk on the beach) to Grace Bay. Car is helpful if you want to venture out (groceries, shopping, finer dining, outings, etc). Would recommend.

The check-in process was super easy easier than anywhere I’ve ever gone. The person in charge of the property was easy to get a hold of very helpful place was very clean. The staff was wonderful very helpful. They’re always on top of the property I don’t have anything really bad to say the only thing that I felt that might be something that I didn’t feel so comfortable with was the fact that the staff can have access to your place when you’re not there to restore towels I would prefer that not being able to happen with the staff, but other than that they were still friendly nothing came up missing they took very good care of the cleaning while I was gone. The place was amazing and I would definitely love to stay here at this Villa again when I return. Very sweet people I loved Turks and Caicos

Great location for snorkeling
Comfortable villa steps away to a beautiful quiet beach with chairs and umbrellas. One reef within swimming distance and Smith’s reef a quick walk down the beach to see colorful fish, turtles and rays. The villa has two great outdoor areas for meals and happy hour overlooking the canal. Luz was there daily to answer questions and light housekeeping. 5 restaurants are within walking distance. Overall, a great villa and everything we needed for an amazing vacation.

Honest Review
This place hit all the high marks for a laid back beach vacation. Kitchen had everything you could want. Villa was clean, well maintained and great quality for the price and the proper was like a botanical garden with beautiful foliage and flowers. Approx 100 yd walk to one of the best beaches in the world. Very few people on the section where the villas are located. Great kayaking in Turtle Cove. New bikes at the facility. Snorkeling gear. Two minor negatives - personnel weren’t prepared for our arrival and oven did not heat up well; however Luz was helpful meeting our needs. Would definitely recommend and would go back without hesitation.

Beautiful Place
I stayed with my partner for a week, and in general, the villa was clean, short walk to the beach (across the road, well-lit path at night), and an overall relaxing place to stay. Everyone in charge of running the villa was extremely quick to respond to questions or requests (we asked to borrow snorkels and received two pairs within the hour). Only two small complaints, not worth docking a full star over: Location (not the villa’s fault): - a few miles away from the downtown area, you really need to rent a car. We tried renting bikes, but to get to the grocery store you need to cross a highway. Ended up trading in the bikes for a car after a day. - most of the restaurants and all of the shops are about 3-4 miles away. There’s a handful of restaurants within walking distance, but not enough to last a week. Kitchen - we weren’t expecting to make extravagant meals, but we thought there would be more kitchen staples provided than there was (e.g., salt, pepper, olive oil, etc.). - there were a handful of other spices that we believe other guests probably purchased and left there
