Beach House Turks & Caicos
The ultimate resort for seclusion and privacy during your stay at Turks and Caicos is Beach House. Beach House has only 21 suites, which are spacious apartment-style pads. Since Beach House is located on its own quiet stretch of white sand, you won’t find the party scene here and that is exactly how guests at Beach House like it. Enjoy the onsite restaurant where the menu is ever-changing and dishes are made with fresh herbs from the on-site herb garden. Beach House also offers a number of great activities for guests from paddleboarding to snorkeling.

You don’t even need to leave the resort to have a great time, as Villa de Mar is home to two swimming pools and a hot tub.
Windsong Resort
Many travelers to Turks and Caicos head to the islands to do one thing: snorkel. If you’re looking to explore the reefs here, then book a room at Windsong Resort. Windsong Resort is right on the beach, and only feet away from some of the best snorkeling in the area along Bight Reef. If this snorkeling spot doesn’t convince you to stay at Windsong, then maybe the accommodations will. The oceanfront suites at Windsong Resort feature pillow-top beds, ten-foot ceilings, custom wood cabinetry, equipped full kitchens, laundry rooms, travertine marble flooring and full marble baths.
