Blue Breeze on Grand Turk - Classic Beach House, Modern Space

If you are looking for a small, intimate island with awesome diving and a beautiful relaxed atmosphere, come to the tiny beautiful island of Grand Turk.

The pure white beach is just a few barefoot steps away and a mindblowing sunset visits every day.

Some people come to Grand Turk for the world-class SCUBA diving (I did), others for the superb fishing, others just to relax and enjoy the island life, untroubled in the sun.

Blue Breeze was built as both a vacation rental and a permanent residence, so it has a full kitchen and all the conveniences you would expect in a home. It was built new from the ground up in 2014, but the architecture owes much to the traditional architecture of the Islands.

The wraparound porch is fully screened from the front to the back, so dinner or an evening cocktail outdoors can be fully enjoyed.

A cooling breeze keeps the house very comfortable most of the time, but there are ceiling fans and air conditioning throughout, so there is always refuge from the afternoon heat.

The master bedroom has a king bed, and the living room has a futon couch, which folds out to a queen size bed. The house sleeps four people comfortably.

Two bikes are available to explore this wonderful small island.

Coffee is available 3 ways - drip, french press, and espresso.

TO GET HERE:
Grand Turk is small and precious, and it is a very different place from Providenciales. You need to take a short local flight (about 20 minutes) to get here.

Take a major air carrier to get to Providenciales (PLS) from North America. Then take a local airline to get from PLS to Grand Turk (GDT). The local airlines are Intercaribbean Airways and Caicos Express Airways. The local flights are booked directly through the airline websites.

The property was great, it had everything we needed. Bikes, beach chairs, water, etc. Beach was just steps away. Close to the fish market where local fishermen brought their catch. I highly recommend this property, great communication and even helped with a taxi to and from the airport. One thing I will mention is that the property next door has several dogs that barked a lot and we heard that they were getting more dogs.

Enjoyed Our Stay
The house is exactly as the pictures showcase which was great. Very easy to communicate with both Eric and Lisa (house manager) and they both were extremely helpful with general information about the island. My husband and I celebrated our anniversary and it was an extremely tranquil vacation. We loved the easy access to the beach, riding the bikes from the house daily, and eating good while enjoying each other’s company. Just as many stated in their reviews, the porch is the absolute best part of the house. The view of the beach and sunset from the porch was so beautiful and serene that while at the house, we spent majority of our time on the porch catching the views, sunrise, and/or sunset. The hammock was a true added bonus. Please note: this is an EXTREMELY small island with not much to do outside of relax, eat, and enjoy the beautiful beach that is a short 30 minute plane ride from Turks & Caicos. Also, if you do not like dogs or donkeys, this is NOT the island for you. There were ALOT of donkeys and stray dogs (easily ten plus) that roam freely, bark often, and many times follow you around! If animals are your thing, particularly dogs, you will not have a problem but if you have any ounce of fear of dogs, then you should reconsider visiting this island.

Perfect relaxing stay
We absolutely loved our stay at Blue Breeze. Both Eric and Lisa were incredibly helpful every step of the way. The views of the water are incredible from the porch. The pictures really don't do it justice! We spent days lazily reading, cooking, and spending time on the beach with the stray pups by our side. The kitchen is very well stocked and the grocery store is a very short walk. You can walk to a few restaurants but the bikes help open up more options. We rented a golf cart 1 day to explore the island. The bed is extremely comfortable and we had no issues with hearing the noises of the dogs and donkeys from the bedroom at night. From the bedroom w/closed doors and the air conditioning you don't hear a thing. If you are looking for something where you can completely chill out this is definitely the place!

Absolutely loved Grand Turk!
We had a great time on our recent trip to Grand Turk. The house is beautiful, and it was easy to walk to the nearby shops, restaurants, and beaches. Be prepared for some noise, however, because there were quite a few early morning shenanigans from the local dogs and donkeys. 😂 Pack your ear plugs just in case and you’ll be set! We rented a golf cart to make getting around the island possible. Thank you for the great visit!

Wonderful Spot
Blue Breeze was an amazing place. The wrap around screened in deck made the place an amazing open air experience. Breakfasts overlooking the ocean and wonderful sunset dinners. We kept the doors open and let the breeze blow through the house. Close to restaurants, the beach was accessable 50 yards from the property. All-round amazing.

A paradise in pristine nature
My husband and I had a wonderful 4-day vacation in Grand Turk. Blue Breeze, the house was absolutely wonderful, modern, airy with everything one would want: very comfortable furniture including patio chairs and hammock, kitchen with anything you would want, great bathroom with luxury towels, and screened porch all around the house. The house has lots of light and is so airy. We did not have to use the AC. You sit on the top floor, on the screened porch, with beautiful views of the turquoise water. What we loved, absolutely loved, was the quietness and authenticity (not touristy) location, close to supermarket, fish market and restaurants. It came with four bikes so unless you want to go around the island, there is no need to rent a golf cart. Eric, the host, made our stay most comfortable, always responding to questions before we got there, organized transport from the airport to the villa, and making sure we were all fine once we arrived. Lisa, the Manager, was there on arrival and made us feel at home right away, sharing some ideas and advice. Our stay surpassed all of our expectations and we want to come back! Besides the wonderful house, we loved sitting on the beautiful beach-totally deserted and swimming in the clear turquoise waters; snorkeling with the sting rays at Gibbs Key with B&R Watersports-Franky; snorkeling with Blue Water Divers; visiting the museum (a must to learn a bit the history of the island); having a rum punch at the Sand Bar; dinner at Bohio Resort; biking around the salt flats, watching the flamingoes and other birds...and having a great massage (above the Blue Water Divers). We needed a break...Blue Breeze was our paradise. It was hard to leave. We are coming back. Thank you Eric for sharing your home and making us so welcome.

Perfect intro to Grand Turk
Comfortable and centrally located, the house is perfect for someone exploring Grand Turk for the first time. It is well appointed with most anything you would need, and if it's not there, Lisa will help you get it. Very easy beach access, and breathtaking sunsets from the front porch. Would definitely stay here again.

Whale of a Stay
Due to COVID we had to move our trip from January to March and Eric was accommodating and easy to work with. The house had everything we needed for the week. We especially liked the screened porches and open doors. We did not use the bikes but the beach chairs, towels and umbrella were great. In Canada we live in a rural setting so staying in the house in town was noisier than we are accustom to. The donkeys and dogs woke us up a couple of nights. Being able to see the whales from a boat tour, the beach and at the lighthouse was exciting. We rented a car but could walk to restaurants, grocery store and shops. We had a great week based out of Eric’s house.

Cockburn Island (GDT) is simply fabulous and so is Eric's property! We rented a golf cart for the 8 days we were there and toured around. Everyone is so friendly! The property is just as described. We absolutely loved it! Thank you to Lisa who greeted us and made sure we were taken care of. We loved the fish market was right there, my husband loved to chat with them all. And the grocery store was right around the corner. We found there was better "deals" at that one closet to the house. Just amazing! Thanks again Eric, for sharing your diamond of a property with us. We would come back in a heart beat.

A Slice of Heaven with a Hammock
My husband and I just returned from 6 nights (Dec. 20-26) at Blue Breeze and I couldn't have found a more perfect home for our peaceful Christmas for two. I do a great deal of research on various travel sites and forums so we are usually pleased with my selection but my husband and I both agree that I hit this one out of the park by selecting Blue Breeze! Perfection. The location was perfect and convenient to everywhere we went on the island. The view was stellar. Oh, those sunsets! The house was such a great size and design layout, All the furnishings are comfortable and in perfect condition. I have never (66yrs old) rented a home that so completely and thoughtfully equipped and supplied- from 3 types of coffee makers, plenty of fluffy bath towels, beach towels, beach chairs/umbrellas, 4 bicycles and every little thing that one never knows might or might not be there (dishwasher soap, laundry soap/softener, plentiful bars of soap, toilet paper, paper towels, great cookware/dishes/utensils, etc). I was amazed- from Kleenex to safety pins to q-tips, spices, OFF spray, and first aid supplies- Eric thought of everything to make a guest comfortable ! The appliances were new and high end (Bosch dishwasher) with a great gas range. We did not grill but the gas grill was conveniently located on the back deck. We spent many hours on the front porch just enjoying the view, the breeze, and the beautiful flowers surrounding the property. Lisa, the property manager, was so friendly and informative- she even wrapped some Christmas lights around the porch rail and put a small tabletop lit tree in the living area for us- such a sweet and festive touch! We needed for NOTHING but another week to spend at this fantastic island paradise home. Thank you, Eric, for sharing! PS Covid comment- Like us, I know everyone is apprehensive about travel during these last long 10 months but we felt so safe in Grand Turk. Everything was sparkling clean and all of the islanders were very mindful of keeping things beyond sanitary. Eric's house had large (new, sealed) bottles of hand sanitizer, cleaner, wipes, plentiful soap and a baggie full of masks. Every grocery market or restaurant had someone outside the door with a spray bottle of cleaner to insist on cleaning everyone's hands before they entered- every person had on a mask- it was so much more aware and careful than our own home town. GO-TRAVEL to GT!

If I could give this a rating of 10 stars, I would! We had the best time at Blue Breeze. The house was open and airy. It was clean and updated and had everything we needed for a great stay. Lisa the manager was extremely helpful and tended to our every need. Eric, the owner was absolutely amazing! They helped us with renting a golf cart for the week and with airport pickup and dropoff. We had to extend our stay due to the Corvid-19 virus and they were more than accommodating. We loved everything about this house and would not hesitate about returning.

Wow!!! This home has EVERYTHING you need and more.
Eric and Lisa are a pleasure to work with. From the moment I inquired about this home until the very end when I had to leave, they were gracious hosts. They have a taxi waiting for you at the airport but we decided to rent a golf cart for the week instead so I let them know so they wouldn’t send a taxi. Boogie met us at the airport and gave us the golf cart. At first I was like, “I don’t know where I’m going?!?” He gave us directions and it was a right and then a left by the gas station and then stay on that road until we got to the house. It was very easy to get there. Lisa was at the home as soon as we arrived and gave us a tour and told us about the island. She lives across the street and is readily available for anything you might need. There is a folder full of information about anything and everything you might need or want. She and Eric both checked in on us by email to make sure we didn’t need anything, which was super nice. The views are exactly what you would expect for Turks and Caicos. BEAUTIFUL! The water is so clear and clean. We decided to go to the cruise center to do some shopping and it’s like a little town; we loved it! The locals are all so friendly and helpful. We explored everywhere on the island from the lighthouse to the cruise center and everywhere in between. This island is GORGEOUS and safe! You can tell they are poor by their homes but not by their attitude! Everyone has a smile on their face and wave as you go by. Every single beach here is public so you can access any of them for free. It was not crowded at all, even when the cruise ships came in. We saw very few people so we were able to relax and unwind. I was initially worried about the donkeys and dogs from previous reviews but it wasn’t anything like I expected. We saw a few donkeys on the road but never on the beach. There were a couple dogs that walked the beach but they never bothered us. One laid behind our chairs for a few minutes and then she was on her way. The barn doors on both sides of the home was genius! It allows such a nice breeze to come through the home. The screened in porch was a wonderful touch as well. The bed is VERY comfortable. I am very picky about my vacations and this was the first time I didn’t do an all inclusive out of the country and it was still perfect! The grocery stores are very close by and the three we went to all had different things so you can get a variety. I can’t wait to bring my daughter. I will definitely be back!

Relaxation, beach and diving
Blue Breeze is tremendous, and the breeze that blows through the property when you open the massive doors is awesome. We loved our stay, waking up to that view is something to see. We used the bikes Eric has everyday, felt like kids again riding all over the island and it connects you with the island in a different way. Would highly recommend staying here, everything you need is there, check in is great, the fish market is 30 yards down the street ( this is where local fisherman come each day with fresh caught lobster, conch, snapper, grouper etc ) grocery store is one block over. Fun place.

Just breathe... Enjoy your perfect stay.
This was a perfect location. We came here for beach, scuba diving "the Wall", and possibly whale watching (we opted out of this based on the rough ride and no breaching/ no whale tails experienced by another group). We enjoyed our days being out and about, using the bikes, and watching the sunset from the patio. We really appreciated the upgraded front-loading washer and dryer, the well stocked kitchen, the fluffy towels, the beach chairs, and the bikes. Lots of thoughtful amenities to make us comfortable. The best design feature though... The cross-breeze you get when you open up the back and front doors and enjoy it bug-free thanks to the screens. Whoa. Just book it. You're welcome.

Beautiful inside and out
Like many other reviews, the screened in porch with an incredible view was the highlight of this home. I spent literally every moment I wasn't sleeping or exploring on this porch. I never needed AC because the breeze running from front to back was fantastic. Inside, the home had everything I needed, especially the washer and dryer. The bed was very comfy, the kitchen had everything required to cook meals. The 2 stores are within walking distance. I did rent a golf cart for one day to snorkel at places other than near the house. Lisa (house mgr) was amazing, friendly and very helpful. The only downside I had was how loud it could be, but that's because I did have windows and doors opened. If you're not an early riser, you will be here. Then again, that gave me more daylight to stare at the gorgeous blue water across the street. The street is a major thruway on the island which I was a bit surprised by. Lots of cruise ship traffic when they're in port. Overall, I felt like this could be my home if I could get Eric to give it to me.

Wrap Around Deck a Delight
The property manager, Lisa was excellent and responded very quickly to any concerns we had. Eric, the property owner was very good at answering emails and checked on us. We loved using the bikes provided and rode around the entire island. The kitchen had everything we needed to make our meals. The bed was softer than we are used to, but still comfortable. Linens are excellent. The dishwasher was not working, but not a concern to us. The new washer and dryer were appreciated. Mostly we just used the overhead fans and only turned on the air conditioning twice for a short time. The house is designed to allow the breezes to flow through. The only drawback to this central location and no fault of the owner, was the noise from a local neighborhood bar. The music was loud and even with earplugs a bit disturbing. It wouldn't bother many people, but we are light sleepers and come from a quiet neighborhood. The occasional dog barking or mule braying did not bother us nearly as much. The property is close to grocery stores and restaurants. We loved having our meals on the deck. The view was amazing. The house is situated a few steps from one of the nicest beaches on the island. We felt safe at this location.

Beautiful, relaxing stay on Grand Turk
We spent a week at Blue Breeze and absolutely enjoyed our time on the island. Eric's place is spacious and comfortable for three of us. The wrap around porch house makes an extra living space with nice sea breeze. The porch is where we spent a lot of time looking out at the blue ocean. Fish market is conveniently located just a few steps from the house, where we picked up catch of the day daily. It's a unique experience to even just go and watch! We often met friendly dogs and donkeys on our strolls adding to the island charm. Overall, we had a wonderful time here and hope to return!
