Large bodies of turquoise water so clear you can see the fish, sand so smooth it's like walking on clouds. Turks and Caicos is the absolute place for complete relaxation.
On vacation, I love a mix of fun, food, & relaxation. This destination was all of them perfectly combined.

Where to Stay in Turks & Caicos
Turks & Caicos has so many options. Villas, resorts, hotels, beach houses, condos anything to fit your budget.
We stayed at the Neptune Villas which was such an amazing experience they had villas ranging from 1bedroom to 3 bedrooms. Equipped with a full kitchen, washer, and dryer, wrapped porch, walking distance to a small area of the beach, and the famous LaBrissa restaurant which has great food. We canoed and kayaked on the villa grounds.
If you want to be closer to the bulk of entertainment in Turk and Caicos, I recommend staying closer to the Grace Bay area. They have ocean-front resorts and boutique hotels that are quite the sight.

How to get around
Public transportation is not readily available here. However, people do walk and bike a lot. Taxis are available but are quite pricey. For those visiting that plan to travel to different areas of the island, I would strongly recommend renting a car from either the airport or a trusted local company. A local company was suggested by our villas staff. The car was dropped off to us for a total of $56.00 a day. (Keep in mind our 12 min taxi from the airport to our villas was $40.00 one-way per person). In Providencia, you drive on the left side of the road. Takes a little adjusting but after a minute in the car, you are bound to get the hang of things.
