Budget-Friendly Grace Bay Beach Vacation
Affordable Holidays on Providenciales Easier Than You Might Expect
A budget-friendly Grace Bay Beach vacation is easier than you think. A good place to start is with your choice of accommodation, and then you can enjoy the paradise of Providenciales (Provo) in a setting that can be described with 3 “A+”.
A+ Accommodations
This unique boutique hotel is steps away from the world famous Grace Bay Beach and offers the kind of personal service that brings guests back time and time again. Villa del Mar provides one, two and three bedroom suites with Tommy Bahama furnishings, beautiful linens, and king or queen beds.
“This resort is significantly cheaper than the others in the same area,” said a recent review on TripAdvisor who traveled with her family.
Each suite features contemporary kitchens fully outfitted with high end appliances, cutlery, and dishes. To stretch out your dollars, you can prepare meals at home tailored to your personal tastes, schedule and travel budget. Shopping is made easy as there are grocery stores close by such as Graceway IGA or Graceway Gourmet IGA which stocks ready to go meal items, special deli items and pizzas. And, start the day the easy way with a complimentary breakfast offered every morning.
A+ Amenities
While you have free access to all the spectacular beaches of Providenciales, as a guest of Villa del Mar you’ll enjoy premier beach service on Grace Bay Beach.
There is an area on Grace Bay Beach exclusively for the use of resort guests where attendants provide fresh towels, cold beverages and can help with arranging water tours, excursions and meal delivery.
“Personally, I came for the infamous Grace Bay, which VDM has its own stretch of beach chairs, loungers and umbrellas on, virtually across the street. Kerone will greet you with a big smile and ask where you want to park for the day – he’ll take care of you well!” wrote a recent reviewer on TripAdvisor.
There are cozy lounge chairs and umbrellas to laze under, a storage rack to stow away your shoes and sandals, and an assortment of sand and beach floats and toys for the kids.
If you prefer to stay close to home, the resort boasts an intimate, immaculately maintained property featuring two pools, and a hot tub.
Join in with other Villa del Mar guests at the weekly Manager’s Cocktail Reception. Feel free to come straight from the pool and enjoy a taste of the islands with locally brewed Turk’s Head beer or delicious fruit punch made with world famous Bambarra Rum. The food, festivities and fun take place from 5:00 to 6:00 each Friday night.
A+ Activities
You’re on vacation and there’s plenty of fun to be had that won’t hit you in your wallet.
And what better way to economize than to start with something that’s both fun and free. Visit the weekly Island Fish Fry at Bight Children’s Park on Lower Bight Road. Festivities kicks off at 5:30 pm and feature authentic Turks and Caicos cuisine and a crazy assortment of Caribbean music and dance.
With its easterly trade winds, Providenciales is an ideal place to fly a kite. If you’re visiting in April, be sure to check out the annual Kite Flying Competition at Bight Beach Children’s Park. The event features an Easter egg hunt, games, face painting, clowns and musical entertainment.
Provo is the perfect place to explore. Check out the marvels of Mother Nature at no charge. You can beachcomb at spots like Coral Gardens or Turtle Cove. The water is pristine, and you never know what treasures might show up in the sugary sands.
Resort Specials
Villa del Mar is an even more affordable option for travelers to the Turks and Caicos who take advantage of regularly offered special rates as well as early booking bonuses which are offered from time to time.
