46 Best Hotels in Turks and Caicos Islands

Built into the side of Blue Mountain, Rock House epitomizes luxury with its unobstructed views of the island's north shore, its secluded bluff-bordered beach, and its dramatic infinity pool. All of the flora at Rock House is local to the island, and blends perfectly with the modern and neutral design. All studios, suites, and villas have cream-and-white color schemes, contemporary light-wood furnishings, and floor-to-ceiling windows or sliding doors that showcase the views. Some units have limestone walls, as well as terraces with private pools; a few multibedroom units are on two levels. The impressive pool area is complete with daybeds, cabanas, a stone lounge overlooking the water, and food and beverage service. The beach that the property is located on is especially impressive for guests who enjoy snorkeling. The hilltop Vita Restaurant serves Italian-inspired cuisine, while the Cave bar offers a variety of cocktails—the latter has a DJ in the evenings. Additional amenities include a fitness center, tennis court, yoga pavilion, and boutique.

With the ultimate zenlike atmosphere, this breathtaking luxury resort with 38 timber-shingled guest pavilions and 20 villas harmoniously blends with the indigenous vegetation and is the place for peace and quiet in a remote waterfront setting. On the island's northwest point, this exclusive hideaway's accommodations are minimalistic yet luxuriously appointed, with stand-alone tubs and rain showers, private bar area, surround-sound systems, 12-meter private pools, natural gardens, and reflection pond or ocean vistas. The two- to six-bedroom Aman Villas offer the ultimate in personal space, with Asian-influenced, understated elegance—each has its own personal chef and housekeeping staff. In the common areas each element has been carefully situated to take full advantage of large pools catching reflections of treetops and magical starlit nights, or sweeping shoreline views. The two restaurants have live music on weekends, an incredible bar pavilion (where you must try the champagne mojitos), an infinity-edge, lava-rock-lined swimming pool, movie room, and well-stocked library. Amanyara’s Nature Discovery Centre offers daily activities for guests older than 5. The resort’s location adjacent to Northwest Point Marine National Park offers wonderful diving and snorkeling.

Beaches is the largest resort in the Turks and Caicos Islands, and it offers more than 20 dining options, a full-service spa, and myriad water sports and activities. The 93-acre resort comprises four villages, each with distinct architecture and ambience: Italy, France, the Caribbean, and Key West. Accommodation is hotel-style throughout, with the exception of the Key West Village, where you'll find luxurious multi-bedroom condo-style lodgings. Kids, tweens, and teens enjoy the children's park, water slides, swim-up soda bar, and even an amazing teen-and-tween disco called Club Liquid. Note that nonguests can, pending occupancy levels, buy day passes good for 10 am to 6 pm and night passes covering 6 pm to 2 am for access to all facilities, restaurants, and the water park. 

This private paradise, on its own island, pairs tranquility with stellar service and features exquisite oceanfront villas along the beach, with an Asian-inspired look that contrasts with the simple hillside terra-cotta and stucco building that houses the rooms and spacious suites. Rooms are minimalist, with a sumptuous mix of cool-white interiors, Indonesian furnishings, and four-poster beds. Expect sorbet, cold bottled water, and cold, lemon-scented refreshment towels around the beach and pool. The villas are the ultimate indulgence, with heated lap pools, hot tubs, and butler service. The resort has two restaurants: The Terrace, featuring modern Mediterranean for dinner, and the more relaxed Caribbean-inspired Lotus, located poolside for daytime dining. The magnificent Como Shambhala Spa features expert Indonesian and Balinese therapists. Guests are greeted by a Parrot Cay representative upon arrival on Provo, transferred from the airport to a private dock, and then whisked off to Parrot Cay on a private shuttle.

On one of the most beautiful beaches in Turks and Caicos, the Meridian Club is the place to de-stress—guest rooms lack phones and TVs (even cell-phone use is frowned upon, though there is Wi-Fi throughout the resort), and the simple beachfront rooms and cottages, most of the staff, and what is perhaps the world's smallest airport (in truth, a gazebo with thatched roof) have all stayed pretty much the same over the years. Choose from the 12 oceanfront rooms, two cottages, or one of the private homes around the island. The 2½-mile (4-km) stretch of beach is deserted, and instead of roads, you find nature trails and sun-dappled paths that crisscross the island, which can be explored by bike or on foot. Here you'll feel not isolated, but part of a small community. There’s a dining hall next to the pool where guests meet at mealtime—or at the bar. The food is excellent, with fresh seafood and delicious sweets served at lunch, dinner, and afternoon tea. Guests are mostly overstressed executives, mature couples, and honeymooners; a large percentage are repeat visitors. Children over 12 are always welcome, but those between 6 and 12 are allowed only in June and July and over the Christmas and New Year's holiday period.

Fronting gorgeous Grace Bay Beach, the tallest property on the island also sets a high mark for luxury within its three buildings, a magnificent heated saltwater pool, full-service spa, tennis courts, and large in-room bathrooms. The four-poster beds and elegant furnishings, both inside and on the terraces, add plenty of comfort in the studio through five-bedroom suites. A water-sports center provides complimentary kayaks, Hobie Cats, paddleboards, and snorkeling equipment. The Deck Bar and dining by the beach—with its couches, fire pits, tiki torches, and social atmosphere set to live music—is the place to be on starlit nights. There's also superb dining at the Terrace and Seven restaurants.

On a gorgeous beach lined with spectacular ocean views, Windsong makes you feel right at home with its friendly and efficient reception and huge rooms outfitted with oversize bathrooms, stainless-steel appliances, marble floors, and dark woods and whites contrasted with warm golden tones. The unique pool has an overhead bridge and small cascading waterfalls set just behind the dunes. The penthouse suite features a glass-wall shower overlooking Grace Bay, enormous walk-in closets, and a private rooftop deck complete with loungers, hot tub, entertainment bar, and full dining table. The resort has that fun-and-friendly feel balanced perfectly with total comfort and style. And if you’re thinking of getting married while on island, Windsong has the option of a private manicured lawn or gazebo for your nuptials. Additionally, there are The Bungalows at Windsong on the Reef that is set behind Windsong Resort in its own little oasis. It is all within two floors creatively thought through so that guests enjoy privacy. The amenities in each bungalow include a full-sized kitchen, washer and dryer, and separate dining and living areas, plus you have full access to the main resort's amenities as well.

South Beach Miami meets island time at this gorgeous resort with modern, chic furnishings, a minimalistic vibe, and bathrooms like no others on the island, complete with waterfalls cascading into tubs from the ceiling and huge rain showers. Guests can choose from a lovely garden studio right up to a three-bedroom, 3,700-square-foot penthouse. Crisp, clean white interiors are complemented by a splash of color and warm-wood accents, and every room has floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall windows. With room service, beach and pool service, and a beautiful spa on-site, you don't have to go far for pampering—the two restaurants are excellent, and Pink Bar serves fine rosé wines and blush Champagnes with a seasonal menu of small bites. As the last resort on the west end of the bay, it offers miles of beach to wander with few to share it with.

At this property, dramatic cliffs skirt one of the most beautiful beaches in the Turks and Caicos, while turquoise-roofed cottages dot the hillside, all with outstanding views of the coastline and reef beyond. The small, self-contained open-plan cottages—perfect for a honeymoon or anniversary stay—have all been updated, keeping the island feel with soft blues and greens to meld with the beauty of the outdoors. All accommodations have screened-in porches and careful positioning to ensure that all have unobstructed views out to sea and take advantage of ocean breezes. Although it's secluded, it doesn't lack amenities. The concierge can arrange everything, including groceries, excursions to East Caicos and Joe Grants Cay, kayaks, snorkeling trips, and bonefishing. In the restaurant, floor-to-ceiling windows give the most amazing views—perhaps the best of all of the islands. Be sure to plan well in advance, as the resort books up fast.

With 7 miles (11 km) of secluded beach and few others to share it with, this property with four upscale and tastefully furnished three-bedroom units is utterly simple and relaxing—each has a master bedroom with king-size bed; an open-concept kitchen, living room, and dining room; and a large screened-in sunroom with dining and lounging possibilities. There's no cable, but there are TVs. Guests also have two bikes and a pay-as-you-go phone dedicated to each unit, plus access to kayaks, snorkeling equipment, and an outdoor commercial-grade Weber grill. Sunsets may be enjoyed on the wooden terrace overlooking the beach or from one of the oceanside hammocks. Although there is no restaurant on-site, you can order fresh, tasty homemade dinners to be delivered to your suite, including chicken, ribs, conch, snapper, and spiny lobster, or have fresh fish for the grill dropped by. The island's best snorkeling is nearby at Three Mary Cays, and you may also choose to throw anchor on your kayak and snorkel the many coral heads directly in front of the complex.

Consistently ranked among the world's top luxury beach resorts, this swanky spread on the Grace Bay waterfront boasts a supremely inviting 25,000-square-foot spa with a central reflection pool, several shops, two restaurants, and stylishly appointed rooms with an enchanting old-world-meets-modern-Caribbean feel. One big plus for families is a washer and dryer in all suites. Accommodations are set along three sides of the central pool—one of the chicest in the Caribbean, with sun pods, a restaurant, and a swim-up bar. 

This resort's goal is to provide “barefoot luxury” and every detail has been carefully thought through. The villas offer complete privacy (some are more than a mile away from the Great House lobby and come with a rental car) plus elements of old-world charm mixed with comfort and convenience. Open-plan living spaces—where the warmth of wood and neutrals blend to create uniquely designed furnishings—include full, modern kitchens. Bedrooms have en suites with coral stone showers, and large terraces with private pools command views of the deep blues beyond. Room packages include a greeter at Provo airport who will assist with your transfer to the included domestic flight and pickup and ground transfer once you're on the ground in South Caicos. The property owns 700 acres on the island and maximum capacity is less than 100 guests. If you are staying on Provo, consider booking a day pass to visit Sailrock. With pickup and drop-off at your Provo hotel, round-trip flights on interCaribbean, ground transfer to and from Sailrock and use of all amenities and water-sports equipment and, of course, those unequaled views, it's a $175 per person well spent.

This luxury resort offers a laid-back unpretentiousness, meaning you don't have to dress up to go to the pool—an infinity-edge dipping zone at the end of a 138-foot reverse-current lap pool with underwater speakers. Spanish turquoise tiles make it a centerpiece that sparkles; at night it looks as if it's lit by stars. From studios to five-bedroom suites and villas, all accommodations are equipped with such extras as Xbox, wine chillers, and Viking appliances, including a washer and dryer. The Estate Villas are the most stunning, with cathedral ceilings and private hot tubs outside on the balconies. The beachfront is one of the best in Grace Bay. Other top draws include complimentary kids' club activities; two excellent restaurants, Barbetta House and the more casual Pool Bar; and Spa Tropique, with a romantic couple's massage room.

This all-inclusive beachfront resort on Grace Bay Beach offers spacious accommodations with large decks or balconies and kitchens or kitchenettes, plus amenities that include a lagoon-style pool, tennis courts, water-sports equipment, and other perks that appeal to families as well as couples. You can cook if you'd like, but rates include all meals, snacks, and drinks at two different resorts—a free shuttle service is offered to the sister property. The Alexandra is within walking distance of shops, snorkeling, and several other excellent restaurants.

This resort offers modern luxury with upscale furnishings, only a 10-minute walk from the far eastern end of Grace Bay. With resort beach chairs and umbrellas set up on a secluded beachfront, it’s a bargain at a fraction of the price compared with staying in the hub. The rooms at the Atrium feature travertine tiles, granite countertops in the well-appointed kitchens, and flat-screen TVs. The spacious accommodations include pullout sleeper sofas, a convenience for those traveling together. The gorgeous pool, complete with shallow wading areas, bridges, and kids' toys, make it a difficult choice for families to leave the property to head to the beach—although the hotel offers a funny little extended golf cart tram to get folks to and from the oceanside without breaking a sweat. In addition, there's a fitness facility on-site. It's in the upscale residential neighborhood of Leeward, and you can take advantage of nearby Blue Haven Resort with its restaurants, spa, and café/grocery store. Note that monthly rentals are available, making it possible for those dreaming of an extended stay to do so without breaking the bank.

Luxurious Blue Haven is the only resort on the far eastern end of the island, overlooking the beauty of au naturel Mangrove Cay and the mega-yachts moored dockside. This 51-suite all-inclusive condo hotel is directly on Leeward Channel, an active waterway between Provo and the string of little cays to the island’s east. With a hint of the Dutch Antilles in its exterior ambience, Blue Haven is a full-service resort: two restaurants on-site, Fire & Ice and the Salt Bar and Grill; The Market, offering groceries and other sundries plus a wonderful little café; excursion companies and water-sports operators; two bars; a fitness facility; and beach volleyball. The free-form infinity pool allows for minimal distinction between the creature comforts of such a refined resort and the wild side of what lies beyond Provo. In addition, Big Blue Unlimited—the island’s premier diving and ecoadventure company—is conveniently located adjacent to the resort. The luxuriously appointed suites all offer full kitchens and balconies overlooking the water, and the more economical premier guest rooms include a microwave and bar fridge, but no balcony. It's perfect for individuals, couples, or families wishing to stay at a location that offers easy access to all types of water sports—in style.

In contrast to the other, more tranquil Grace Bay resorts, this property has a vibrant party atmosphere with nightly entertainment and even a flying trapeze—it caters to fun-loving singles and couples, as it has a no-child policy. That said, the resort attracts a diverse crowd, including longtime Club Med aficionados who fly in from North America and Europe for the “club” that started it all; water sports has always been the draw in what was the area's first major resort, but many now come to “join the circus." The resort had a major much needed overhaul recently. Standard Club rooms in the village are basic, but the Deluxe rooms offer a slightly nicer decor and in-room amenities; both are set in small, colorful bungalows dotted close to the widest stretch of Grace Bay Beach. Note that individuals wishing to join in on the fun may do so through a day pass or a dinner pass, which takes in all evening entertainment, for $89 each, or you can spend all day and night there (no room included) for $149 and enjoy all the food, drink, and amenities.

The best off-the-beach snorkeling directly in front of Coral Gardens makes this resort and its large condo units a very popular spot. Each suite has floor-to-ceiling sliding windows, some with full sweeping views of the entire bay. Be sure to check their site plan when booking, as the on-site restaurant, Somewhere, partially blocks the view of several units, and late-night gatherings can create a less-than-peaceful atmosphere. With its close proximity to the ocean’s edge, it is amazing that the gardens and property have continued to look manicured and well taken care of over the years. All one- to three-bedroom condo-style rooms have bamboo-and-wicker furnishings with tropical prints; couches and beds are chosen for comfort. Throughout the resort, bathrooms include spacious showers, and the Ocean Club Grand suites have soaker tubs. There are two pools on the property, and guests have access to the fitness center and spa at the associated resort, the Reef Residences. It is worth noting that the two resorts share facilities, even though there are separate websites and check-in receptions; be sure you know what you are booking when contacting reservations. There's a seven-night minimum during peak season, and a three-night minimum at other times. Book for a week and your rate includes two 20-minute de-stress massages.

On their own secluded stretch of beach, these three two-bedroom apartments make a quiet getaway that is far enough from the cruise-ship port to give you some peace and quiet but still within walking distance of Duke and Front streets. The apartments are decorated with wicker and colorful Haitian paintings; there are overstuffed chairs on the covered patio. The beach has its own secluded cove, so you'll definitely feel out of the fray. Grand Turk is quiet and laid-back, with plenty of Old Caribbean charm, just like this complex.

The stylish Grace Bay Club has always been a number-one choice on Providenciales, constantly meeting the demands of the discerning visitor and staying consistently ahead of all expectations, and the helpful, attentive staff and unpretentious elegance have helped it to retain a loyal following. The architecture is reminiscent of Florence, with terra-cotta rooftops, shaded courtyards, and garden fountains. The resort is defined by three distinct sections: The Hotel, an adults-only accommodation; The Villas Suites, a spacious family-friendly slice; and The Estate, a family-friendly “über-luxe” experience that's a separate entity within the resort. Each has its own pool. Grace Bay Club has four dining options, from intimately elegant to casual. Families staying at The Hotel enjoy not only a large pool plus a bar and grill, but also an impressive range of children's activities through Kids Town: water sports on-site, kayaking trips, and all sorts of "edutainment" to keep even teenagers occupied. At the exclusive Estate, ground-floor suites are extra spacious, and some have plunge pools.

Although not on the beach, this small complex of six one-bedroom cottages along a ridge overlooking the Caicos Banks and inland Flamingo Lake is right by the marina, making it a good base for scuba diving, bonefishing, or a quieter vacation. Lovingly maintained, each unit is simple and clean, bursting with Caribbean color, and featuring a kitchen, sitting room, and bathroom, plus a pullout sofa bed. The hosts go out of their way to please, providing complimentary services like booking car rentals and stocking the fridge. In the evening, divers and fishing enthusiasts gather by the pool to share a meal after barbecuing. You may start off as a guest, but you're likely to leave as a friend and feel like family. Harbour Club is also perfect for family reunions or intimate weddings.

You can save money by staying slightly away from the beach without giving up comfort or location at these condos overlooking Turtle Cove, which you can rent via Airbnb and VRBO. Rooms have sweeping views all the way down to Grace Bay over the marina. The red-tile roof contrasts with the turquoise water, and the two matching pools have sweeping views as well. The rooms are modern and more than comfortable, with upscale furnishings, fully equipped kitchens, and travertine floors. Even the smallest studios are spacious, starting at 700 square feet. The resort is within walking distance of numerous restaurants and some of the island's best off-the-beach snorkeling.

This resort in the middle of the hub offers easy access to nearby shops and restaurants, and is within close walking distance of Grace Bay Beach. It consists of 12 one-bedroom apartment-style lodgings, all with views of the lushly landscaped pool. Rooms are simple, but have a light and breezy Caribbean feel. A full kitchen and en-suite washer/dryer offers money-saving convenience that allows the more budget-conscious traveler a way to enjoy Grace Bay, which is just steps away. There's no need for a rental car if you stay here because the resort is so centrally located.

This small, reasonably priced condo complex right next door to Saltmills Plaza and within walking distance of many restaurants and Graceway IGA, is in the heart of it all—and within only a few minutes' walk of the beach. The spacious two- and three-bedroom townhouses are decorated with an island vibe, each with a full kitchen. The club provides beach towels and will lend you umbrellas to take to the beach. 

Modern and chic, this Italian-influenced condo complex with its minimalistic lines reminds one of a Miami South Beach hotel, minus the crowds. Le Vele is centrally located on Grace Bay Beach and consists of 22 ultra-spacious one-, two-, and three-bedroom condominiums to choose from. Each unit, decorated in tropical hues with rich dark-wood accents, has an oversize balcony or patio to take ultimate advantage of phenomenal ocean views. 

Although not on the beach, this wonderful complex of villas is the only resort-style accommodation on the magical waters of Chalk Sound National Park, with nearby Sapodilla and Taylor Bays. Neptune Villas consists of two-bedroom, two-bath vaulted-ceiling cottages with either Chalk Sound or garden views. The owners have taken this older property that once consisted of long-term rentals and lovingly refurbished it into luxurious accommodations featuring full glass and stainless kitchens, high-end furnishings including poster beds, rich wood cabinetry, and marble bathrooms—one with shower and the other with tub. Each unit has three private balconies to take in a variety of views; some have a fourth with a hammock to while away a lazy afternoon. Jalousie windows allow fresh ocean breezes through to cool, and there are fans and AC as alternatives. The resort also offers a superb restaurant, Las Brisas, overlooking the sound, and a sunset pontoon boat excursion to get you out on the water. With midweek maid service, this little gem is perfect for two couples or a family traveling together.

Miles from nowhere, this resort should be your destination if you need complete solitude. In fact, it is so isolated that the paved road ends before you reach the front gates (it continues as packed sand). The Spanish-style resort itself is quite nice, with white walls and arches, red-tile roofs, and lovely landscaping. Rooms are spacious, with full kitchens and large balconies, many with amazing ocean views. Because it's condo-style, all units are individually owned and decorated. The pool is centrally located—oceanside—and there's even a hot tub. The beach here is natural and wild, but the resort staff rakes it daily. Although this is not Grace Bay, it is the westernmost extension of Provo’s beautiful north shore. Its long, uninterrupted stretch of sand goes for miles, with a wonderful little grassy vehicle track that parallels the shoreline, both great for nature walks. You definitely need a car if you stay here; there is no restaurant, and the nearest grocery store is a 20-minute drive away. You are truly totally isolated, with no services for miles and miles.

Enormous, locally painted pictures of hibiscus make a striking first impression as you enter the reception area at one of the island's most well-established condominium resorts, which enjoys a quiet location away from busier developments. Regular shuttles run along the ½-mile (1-km) stretch of Grace Bay Beach between two artfully landscaped sister properties, Ocean Club (popularly known as Ocean Club East) and Ocean Club West. Plenty of beach and pool toys make Ocean Club a great family option.

Its central location and large, affordable, comfortable rooms make this resort popular with vacationers. Regular shuttles run along the 1/2-mile (1-km) stretch of Grace Bay Beach between two artfully landscaped sister properties, Ocean Club (popularly known as Ocean Club "East") and Ocean Club West, from 6 am to 10:30 pm. Ocean Club West has a larger pool than Ocean Club, as well as a swim-up bar. Management and service are superb. Newer rooms than its sister property make this a more upgraded choice.

You can't get any closer to the water's edge than this two-story oceanfront hotel and the adjacent guesthouse-style Atrium overlooking a tropical courtyard. Palms, fragrant frangipani, and brilliant bougainvillea framed archways, adding stunning contrast to the old white stone walls that separate the hotel from the narrow laneway. Rooms upstairs feature vaulted ceilings and spectacular views, while ground-level guests enjoy direct beach access through their own garden. Some of the rooms have kitchenettes, so if you want to prepare some of your own meals, be sure to request upon booking. There's a full-service restaurant and bar and spa services, and you're steps away from all three dive shops on the island.
