Villa Tropica - Near Grace Bay Beach - Newly Remodelled

Welcome to a place where you can truly leave your troubles behind. There is no shortage of beaches to choose from. Grace Bay, Pelican, Emerald or Long Bay beach are minutes away from the villa and safe for jogging, walking, cycling.

Villa Tropica has been fully remodeled in the fall of 2022 : All Windows, inside/outside floor, Kitchen, all bedrooms/Bathrooms and all furniture are brand new.

Villa Tropica is a vacationer's Paradise, nestled in the upscale villa community of Leeward which borders Grace Bay shopping and restaurant district, and surrounded by 4 great beaches, a Casino and a Golf course.

Visit our website for further details : www.villatropica.net

Home to the Best Beach in the World, breathtaking hues from inviting waters, and legendary diving, snorkeling and fishing, the Turks & Caicos Islands beckon you to an undiscovered Caribbean.

The Villa will boast 4500 sq-ft of living space surrounded by half an acre of tropical landscaping. The lush tropical garden and the pergola provides cooling shade after a day playing at the beach.

This luxury villa features five spacious, well-appointed bedroom suites, a gourmet kitchen, large living and formal dining room, secondary living room, game room, laundry room, 30 feet chromatic private pool, and lots of outdoor dining and lounging space in a lush garden. Relax yourself in the hammock surrounded by Palms !

Beautiful powdery white sand and gin-clear waters of Pelican Beach, a mere 2 minutes walk away from the villa and spans over 3.5 mi into Grace Bay Beach which is another 12.5 mi stretch. Anyone for beach walking?

The calm waters provide crystal clear visibility and only a foot or two deep out to about 15 feet from shore, great for small kids as well as areas for diving.

Pelican Beach is known as 'the best-kept secret' as its unspoiled nature lends to photographers seeking to capture the heart of the islands.

Grace Bay area is 2 miles away where you can find a large and quality supermarket, stores and restaurants. There is also a convenience store within a mile from the villa at Bleu Haven. Meals can be ordered and picked up for breakfast, lunch and dinner from Fresh Bakery at the Atrium (0.3 mi). There is also a Pergola for alfresco dining with an outdoor gas BBQ grill and dining table in the gardens.

In the living room are plush sofas sufficient for 10 persons to sit comfortably while watching television on the big flat-screen Smart TV with cable service.

Kids will enjoy the pool and the pool toys. Use provided beach chairs and umbrellas to fully enjoy your day at the beach. The island is safe for jogging, walking, and cycling.

The master bedroom features a walk-in shower, walk-in closets, King Bed, air conditioning with a relaxing view of the palm gardens. Bedroom 3 has a walk-in shower, Queen Bed, air conditioning, ceiling fan, door leading out to the pool area. Bedrooms 1 & 2 share a jack and Jill Bathroom with a walk-in shower. Both have Queen Bed, air conditioning, ceiling fan and garden views. All bedrooms are equipped with Plush Egyptian cotton linens.

The suite is open for large group or when a fifth bedroom is required. The suite features an ensuite powder room, King Bed, private living room with a sofa bed, LCD television, air conditioning and two ceiling fans.

The villa is located in the upscale, safe neighbourhood and security patrolled of Leeward. In addition, guests can feel more secure in using the room safe. Guests are welcome to use the unlimited Wi-Fi .

Our property manager will do a brief orientation of the Villa upon arrival. He will be available to you throughout your stay to answer questions, make recommendations on dining and activities, and address any problems that may arise. We want our guests to have a truly fantastic vacation, and we are here to assist you with both your vacation planning and on-island needs !

We can get you a Hyundai Santa FE Hybrid for $115 extra per day plus a $30 cleaning fee. The car is located at the villa, so you only have to secure a taxi back and forth from the airport.

Just a short flight from the east coast of the US, our islands are a tropical classic, a throwback in time where relaxation is unavoidable and rejuvenation ensured.

Great location and property amenities
I stayed with 7 other adult friends for a couple of days and thoroughly enjoyed being in a well furnished property within a safe and clean neighborhood. Being able to walk to a beach within 5 minutes was also very convenient. The location was great too - just a quick 10 mins drive or moderate walk to the part of town with nice restaurants and shops. The property manager and his staff were always accesible and provided many tips to improve our stay in the island.

Amazing Getaway
The newly renovated Villa Tropica provided everything we’d hoped for and more for our month long vacation! Bob, the host, could not have been more accommodating to our needs and responded so quickly. Villa Tropica, particularly the backyard pool area, provides a real private oasis . We all loved it!!

Great House and Safe Location
The house is large and perfect for families. The AC blows cold and the kitchen is large and modern. The backyard is very nice and has a nice pool to cool off in. The neighborhood is very safe and is about a 5 minute drive to Grace Bay. The country club is also very close if you want to play golf or tennis. We had a great time and highly recommend it.

Amazing Villa
Communication with property manager was excellent! The home was absolutely incredible. We had a group of five couples. The layout of the home fit our group perfectly. The pool area was amazing. House was stocked with essentials that lasted us the week. Need towel racks or hooks in the upstairs bathroom. No place to hang wet towels. Other than that, no complaints. Highly recommend this home!!

Family vaca in Turks
We had a wonderful stay in Turks. Bob, the owner was very attentive to all of our needs. He gave us information about the island, restaurants etc. He even brought us sandwiches for our flight back home!!! After we left the property, my nephew realized that he left an air pod in the house. Bob plans to mail it to him soon!!! Thanks Bob!!!

Lovely location with lots of room
Just returned from a first time trip to Turks & Caicos with family of 7 (parents and 5 teen/young twenty something kids). Villa Tropica is in a wonderful location...easy driving and a short walk to a pretty little beach. Beach chairs, beach towels, pool toys and all the kitchen tools needed were there (and a great blender for tropical drinks). The garden is lovely but it does come with some mosquitos so bring a bit of bug spray. The owner and property manager were very responsive and easy to work with.

Lovely spacious home with amazing pool
The property is better than the photos! Brand new tile, kitchen and bath remodels all new furniture. All bedrooms had access to their own bathrooms. Truly a beautiful home. The pool is very large and perfect underneath the Palm trees. Outdoor dining area and grill were also highlights. Bob, the owner was beyond exceptional, a wonderful human and immediately responded with all communication. Even brought us pastries one morning and set us up with reservations at his favorite sushi place. A fabulous stay in a very safe and upscale neighborhood. We can’t wait to go back!

Great time in TCI!
We had a wonderful stay at Villa Tropica in TCI last week! The weather was awesome and the beaches were amazing. The house was just what we needed, and any issues that came up, Bob and his team handled immediately. It fit our two families (9 people all together) just fine and the pool was so fun for everyone! The beach equipment was perfect for our needs - chairs, umbrella, cooler, and some toys! Master bedrooms king beds were comfy. And the cars rented with the house were definitely a plus, and Bob helped us with transportation to/from the airport, which was much appreciated. Highlights were snorkeling at Coral Gardens, Sapodilla Bay jet skiing, and a private boat tour that was loads of fun! Thanks Bob, Graham, Dany and everyone who made our stay at TCI a memorable one!

Family Vacation
Villa Tropica exceeded our expectations! Beautiful home, well stocked gourmet kitchen. The pool and patio area was awesome with pool toys for the children. Plenty of space for 5 adults and 2 children to have private time, when needed. Only a 5 minute walk to beautiful beaches. Robert, the property manager, was great. He was very attentive and available when needed.. The only downside to the whole vacation was the power outage on the island that lasted 24 hours, which was out of the control of the owners or property manager. We will definitely book this home again. We had an amazing vacation!

AMAZING!!
This property was absolutely gorgeous! Robert greeted us when we arrived, and was very helpful with information. The house is perfect for several couples to have privacy wherever you go! The saltwater pool was great for cooling off. The hammock in the garden was perfection! We ate most meals at the villa, and spent a lot of time at the outdoor seating area. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need...although the one thing we couldn't find was a pizza cutter! lol. Very close to the beach....but we spent most of our time at the house and pool! There is nothing about this house we would change! Very relaxing, perfect vacation.

Beautiful Home in a Great Location
We absolutely loved the home and the location. About a three block walk to the closest beach or you could make the short drive if you preferred. Bob the owner lives right around the corner so he is close if anything goes wrong. He met us at check-in and showed us around. He was fantastic to work with and there if we needed anything (for instance several remote TV and fan batteries were dead and he brought out new ones in no time at all). The house does have a car you can rent. It was not big enough for what we needed but if you need a car for five people or less it is so much nicer than the rental cars at the airports and it has the driver stuff on the left side like the US unlike the rental cars which had the driver on the right side. We can't wait for our next trip to Turks and would stay hear again 100% if available when we go.

This Villa has it all!
Villa Tropica was an amazing vacation rental. Located just minutes from a beautiful beach that was almost private, it provided us with everything we needed for a great family vacation. We had 7 travelers from ages 4-88 and everyone was pleased with this well equipped house. The bedrooms are large and most offer private bathrooms (2 bedrooms share a jack and Jill bathroom). The kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed to cook many meals in. In addition, the patio has a great Weber grill that we used often. The patio, gardens and outside pool area were amazing! The kids and adults alike loved the lighted pool and pool deck. This house is gated and provides a security system. There is even a game room with a Foosball table and everything you need to enjoy the beach ( chairs, umbrellas, coolers, beach toys). We could not have asked for a better beach rental and look forward to returning!

Villa Tropica Magnificent Home
Villa Tropica was a wonderful home with high end furnishings and a great layout. We were an extended family of 11, to include 6 adults 2 teens and 3 kids age 8-12 years. We all had a wonderful time with plenty of space to spread out. The grounds were well maintained with plenty of space with sun and shade areas and a lot of privacy. The boys especially liked the game room and swimming in the chromatic pool at night. The beach is within walking distance and the home supplied enough chairs, coolers and umbrellas to accommodate everyone. We often loaded one car with all supplies, then walked down. I would recommend a car to get to/ from restaurants grocery, shopping, snorkeling reefs and just for exploring the island. All in all a wonderful home and vacation island I would recommend to anyone.

Nice house close to the beach.
AC not included in charges they will be extra between $400-600. You are limited to 2000 gallons of water so with a large group we had to be careful with showers. Gate code didn’t work for us for two days and was annoying, last full day the Internet didn’t work. Shows 4 bikes and they only had two adult bikes and Robert found one more. All in all we were happy just some things could have been spelled out and ran a little smoother. For what you pay you should be VIP and Robert was busy checking someone else in so it was a while before we could even get the 5th bedroom opened.

Problems at Villa Tropica
The property description on VRBO included a vehicle (Santa Fe SUV). After making the initial payment, Dany informed me that the vehicle was no longer available, although it remained on the VRBO posting. Upon check-in, we were told that the front gate key pad didn’t work, but would be fixed - it wasn’t fixed. The master bedroom shower did not have 2 of the 3 shower heads operable. The Jack and Jill bathroom shower flooded the two bedrooms, because the tile floor is too flat (this was pointed out by the maintenance man). The air conditioner in the upstairs bedroom did not operate properly because of a missing remote (also pointed out by the maintenance man). Air conditioning in the villa’s center rooms did not operate for several days. The pool water was dirty, requiring regular skimming, because the water level was too low for the filtering system. The toilet in the kitchen bathroom did not work for the final 4 days of our stay. The gas grill had so much grease buildup that when we turned it on, it caught fire - both on the grilling surface and below. The rear property, surrounding the pool, was overgrown and dirty. We have submitted photos of these conditions to the owner and property manager, requesting a rebate for part of our stay. In talking with neighbors, we wondered how this property received so many 5 star ratings, their response was that those ratings were “bought by the owner”.

Absolutely Fantastic!!
My wife and I frequent the Turks and Caicos islands and just love them. This year we decided to bring a few other couples with us to experience the same joy we do. We found Villa Tropica after searching online for some time and decided to stay there. I am glad we did. From the warm welcome we received upon arrival to the friendship we created during our stay, Villa Tropica did not disappoint. The villa is absolutely gorgeous and wonderfully decorated along with plenty of space in all rooms. Ample space around the pool is suitable for multiple guest, large eating area outside is great for morning breakfast and a hammock round out this beautifully landscaped property. The manager was always very pleasant and addressed every request we had-even at a moments notice. We booked a couple of excursions through Caicos Adventures and enjoyed a fair discount as well-this was very nice. The villa was a true hit. When asked by others if we would recommend, our response has always been and always will be 'In a Heartbeat!'. Now if I can only get them to hire me as the Pool Boy, I could be there all the time! Thank you for helping us create a memory of a lifetime. Thank you Robert, thank you Dany and thank you Villa Tropica!

Paradise at the Villa
Our two families celebrated Senior Spring break with our boys and a niece. There were 8 of us.The house was beautiful and very spacious. The furniture and decor were unbelievable knowing that everything had to be shipped to the Island. I have stayed at other homes listed on VRBO where the furniture, decor, and appliances were very outdated. Almost every room had it's own bathroom so the house was set up like individual suites. Backyard with the pool and dining area was also very spacious. Great place to spend time when we weren't at the beach. The house was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Kitchen fully equipped and separate laundry with washer and dryer. Air conditioning units cooled rooms down really quickly. Pelican beach very private and really only a 5 minute walk from the house. Everything provided at the house, you only really needed your bathing suits and clothes. Robert very friendly and helpful. Restaurants can be on the expensive side and if you cook meals food and drink at the grocery stores can also get pricey. Stick with the local beer. Excursions are wonderful but also were expensive. We did ATV with Froggy's, Sail Beluga with Captain Nick, Eco Kayak tour with Big Blue Unlimited, Kitesurfing with TCK Kitesurfing and an all day boat snorkeling conch cruise with Caico Dream tours. The beaches and water are like no other in the world. People are extremely friendly. I would return to T & C and definitely stay at Villa Tropica again. Owner Dany always answered my e-mails within 24 hours and price point for this house compared to other properties on the island very reasonable. I felt my money was well spent. Wonderful vacation for our families! So glad we did not do an all inclusive with multiple families.

Heaven on the island
We spent 6 amazing nights in this beautiful villa. It was everything I expected and more. The house is very spacious and we never felt cramped. The rooms are comfortable and the dining room was used daily for family dinners. My favorite part of the home was the backyard. It truly is dreamy and makes you feel as if you are in your own personal resort. I can't begin to tell you the times I spent laying out in the hammock and hanging out by the pool, it's just amazing back there. The beautiful beach is just a short bike ride away and the lounge chairs provided by the villa are backpacks and very easy to carry. The entire trip was planned a year ahead and Dany was so helpful during the process. It is always a little stressful trying to plan a trip hundreds of miles away but everything went smoothly and was very responsive to all my emails. Once you check-in you will meet Robert! He is so awesome and will ALWAYS be available if anything goes wrong. With a family of 10, the coffee maker decided to stop working one morning and Robert came over in 15 minutes with not only 1 but 2 new coffee makers!! Here are some helpful tips: 1. Rent a car, it is going to be very useful when you are exploring the island and the villa is VERY close to a supermarket. 2. Bring a lot of bug spray. I'm not kidding, no matter where you go at night, you are going to need this. For example, we went through 12 bottles :) 3. The neighborhood the villa is located at is very safe. I know this is one of the things that always worries me when I travel but I felt safe during those late night walks. 4. Soak in the sun and have FUN I can't wait to book this villa again! I'm already dreaming of the outdoor space and beach....

Great - I am coming back ASAP
WOW! What an excellent experience. We rented the house with 5 couples. House is amazing and a perfect fit for us with 5 large bedrooms with plenty of space. The kitchen and outdoor space was heavily used by all of our guests. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. In our group, we a culinary genius in the group so the kitchen was used 5 of the 7 nights we were there. Grocery store was not a problem to get to. A rental car is a must! Most of our days started with a cup of coffee and then a short walk to our almost private beach. I have traveled to many islands in my vacationing career and I have to say, the beach was the best beach I have ever been too. Water is crystal clear and the sand is pillow soft (I know… I took a few afternoon naps on it). Only thing I would change is the duration of my stay. It went way too quick. Don’t make a mistake rental anything else in the leeward area. This house has everything you need and more. Dany was a top-notch in handling the reservation, questions, and superb service. Robert was fantastic throughout the whole trip. We had a few issues where we needed his help and he was there in the blink of an eye. He went above and beyond his call of duty. Welcomed us with beers on our arrival! The uncontrollable negatives but important to note: • The airline lost 3 of our bags and we did not receive them for over 24 hours. We can thank Newark International Airport for that one. • The first few nights of the trip, the mosquitoes in the private garden took a toll on a few guest legs. Bug spray is a must if you often get bit. • We had trouble keeping the fridge and freeze cold – with 10 people going in and out of it.

Fantastic Property
We really enjoyed our stay. Our group included 2 families of 4 (siblings) and our parents. Our children's ages were 6, 4, 3 & 1. Our trip started off great, the property manager had an escort at the airport for us to follow to the property. We rented a car, which I recommend, the property is not within quick walking distance to any stores. We were very impressed upon arrival. The house is beautiful, the yard is great. There is so much space for large groups/families. The kids had a blast in the pool and the yard, the yard appears to be the best in the area, it is completely landscaped and mature and secure. The pool is clean and larger that I expected, the owner had gates installed prior to our arrival which was great for us since we had small children. We found the bed and bedding to be very comfortable, the kitchen is very well stocked, the furniture is beautiful and comfortable. The bikes are great for cruising. There are beach chairs, umbrellas, beach toys (we left more behind as well), pool toys, comfortable out door furniture. The beach was a short walk and very beautiful of course. If you have small children I recommend going to Sapodilla Bay, it is so beautiful, shallow and quiet, really worth the time to go. We also took in the Thursday night fish fry, we really enjoyed the food, it gets busy so I recommend to go early! We found groceries very expensive, we are Canadian and used to spending $ on groceries and alcohol but it was a significant amount more than we are used to. I recommend taking advantage of duty free if you drink! We also left behind a placement drink menu that one of us made so if its still there try some of the drinks, Margaritas always make it more fun!! The only draw back, which is not property specific, is the bug bites we received in the evening, our family is prone to getting bit, they like us. We didn't see many bugs so it wasn't irritating but we got silently bit! If you choose this property I don't think you will be disappointed, we have done a significant amount of travel and we would return.

AMAZING VACATION IN A BEAUTIFUL VILLA
We had a wonderful vacation and our family of 7 ranging from age 3 – 73 loved this villa. We had everything we needed to make this an amazing vacation. By far our favorite “go to” place out of the entire property was the backyard, it was so private and comfortable that it was an amazing gathering spot for everyone. There are so many amazing things posted about this villa that I will share some different info about the island that might help you decide to book this listing. T&C is a great island and we realized that food would be a bit expensive, our group consisted of some very good/creative cooks so we enjoyed the challenge of having most meals at the villa. Close to the airport is a very small chicken place called Sweet Ts and it is very popular with the locals. You can get 2 styrofoam containers of good fried chicken for $10 we added sides. Just make sure you read the reviews on TripAdvisor for details on ordering. Also close to the airport you will find a little red pickup truck that sells seafood, we made sure that we visited the island during lobster season and we ate lobster almost every day. During one trip to the truck we bought 18 tails for $90, yum. Turks Head beer is cheaper by the case if you purchase at the brewery. The IGA was a great place to do the initial shopping and can find some good deals if you are with some creative cooks (ex. package of two very thick bone in pork chops was about $6.00) these were amazing on the grill and actually we had to go back for more. TCI food tour was a wonderful way to spend 3 hours getting history of the island and sampling some amazing island food, just schedule your tour before you leave home so that it is early in your trip and have time to revisit your favorite places. Snorkeling at Coral Gardens was great, a few people had to get gear and at Dive Provo it was only $15.00 for a 24 hour timeframe for a full set. Honestly between the pool, the amazing beaches, great food, great drink…… we were happy happy! Robert was wonderful to work with, when you meet him on your first day be prepared with a map from the airport and a list of things you might want to check out, he will mark them off on your map (which is lacking a lot of detail including street names). This was a huge help and saved us a ton of time. A couple housekeeping suggestions might be to update the bed pillows and replace/sharpen the kitchen knives, either way I would not hesitate to visit again!

Dream House!
Where to start?! This house was absolutely perfect for our group of 5 couples! We could have gone with a cheaper house closer to the beach, but I have NO regrets about going with Villa Tropica. What I specifically LOVED about this house: -All the rooms were spacious, tastefully decorated and immaculately clean. -AMAZING outdoor area with an equally amazing pool. When I wasn't floating in the nearby ocean, I spent my time floating in the pool (day and night!) Tons of toys/rafts/tubes available. Yes, there are bugs, but my trick was to spend as much time in the water as possible. And used Saywer's lotion bug dope..seemed to work the best. Oh, and we left behind oil for the tiki torches which seemed to also help with the bugs. -Near the beach. Yes, it's a short (5-10min) walk but there are bikes available and let's be real...walking to the beach was our only form of exercise on this trip so it was probably a good thing. -THE BEACH! We ventured out one day to explore the island and couldn't wait to get back to our beach. The other (shallower) beaches might be better for families with kids, but we LOVED only having to walk out a few meters to be up to our chests. -Well stocked pantry full of spices. We brought a bunch of our own food essentials since we knew they would expensive. We mostly drank local beer and rum and hit up duty-free on the way down. -Fully equipped kitchen to meet all of our cooking needs -Washer/Dryer available for salty and sweaty clothes (bring detergent!) -Totally safe. The island seemed a bit seedy driving beyond the airport, but once we got to Leeward, it was a totally different feel. The house is equipped with a safe and an alarm system. We never once felt unsafe. Wait...except riding in a car on the wrong side of the road...that took some time to get used to! -Wifi worked perfectly, with no issues of being slow -Nearby stores, restaurants and touristy areas. We did, however, end up renting a car just because we were on vacation and feeling lazy. We probably could have done without it, but taxis would have cost just as much ($20 per person from the airport to leeward) and the walk to the grocery store would have been a BIT too far in 85 degree/95% humidity weather. -Dany was great to work with. I was super nervous about sending a HUGE payment off to someone I had never met, but I called him and I can assure you that he's a real person :) Overall, I HIGHLY recommend this house and would be happy to give a referral!
