Grace Bay Club

My husband and I visited Turks and Caicos for the first time to celebrate a big milestone birthday. The Grace Bay Club was a perfect place to do so. We stayed on the residence side which is very quiet (actually the entire resort was quiet) but given it was the first week of January it was quite quiet. Leaving two very high-stressed jobs back home my husband I spent the first two days staring at the water. Not reading, not talking, hardly eating. Our souls needed time for silence and restoration. This was achieved. The water color cannot be explained. It is the most beautiful array of blues I’ve ever witnessed. Pictures will never show its true majesty. The sound of the waves makes you fall asleep. I was greeted one night in my room with birthday balloons, delicious cake and champagne and a bottle of wine. I also received free dessert at dinner the first two nights to celebrate. Thanks to Fredna and Fritz for making me feel special. Fritz and Fredna were our personal Concierges and they made sure we had everything we needed. My husband became very ill and they got us in touch with the on call physician for the resort and to a clinic the next day along with a ride there. The GM called us to make sure he was OK. Everyone was so kind and concerned. All fake? Nope. Not for a minute. This IS Grace Bay Club. It’s a community of guests and staff and if you can get yourself to slow down and join in, you find yourself being swept up into island time and feeling like you are living in a small quaint town where you know everyone. You will not be able to push your frantic stressed out lifestyle on these people. Instead, they will slow you down so your soul can be restored. Which leads me to the reviews I’ve read and caused me concern before I got there. Regarding service. How do I say this without offending anyone. If you think you are going to make them move faster, bring your drink sooner, deliver perfection to you at the snap of your fingers, then you are missing out on the whole point of being there. You are bringing your high stressed life to a place that refuses to buy into that way of thinking. And if they DID it would ruin your stay. So all the complaining about waiting - that’s on you. I feel bad that you couldn’t (yes couldn’t - it’s a choice) get to enjoy the greatest gift of all - no time constraints. To Amado & Jim on the beach, we will miss you most of all. Thank you for helping us decompress. For excellent margaritas and good conversation. For caring about my husband when he was sick. Garth, for finding those diet cokes when we needed them so badly. For Sonny and Stanley at breakfast, we enjoyed getting to know you both. Your smiles always brightened our days. I know I’m forgetting names but thank you to all the staff. We noticed. To all the beautiful young families that played on the beach and made me smile thinking of my children when they were younger. To the beautiful grounds and the good mornings from staff. To housekeeping th

WE had an amazing experience at GBC! The people were fabulous. The room was gorgeous and the food was excellent. Many thanks goes out to our concierge team, Patrick and Tiffany. Kudos to Franklyn for managing a sticky situation. The fun trophies go to Amanda, Sweet Fred and Melissa as well as the sweet girl who waited on us at the Infiniti bar twice and shame on us, we did not get her name, but her smile is oh so memorable!! If you need a car and driver to take you dinner or provide airport service,ask for Demon from Island Buzz. He was on time and delightful.

Been going to TCI for about 17 years. Stayed at Grace Bay Club the last 8 years. We love GBC. They have 3 sections to this resort. While it sounds big, it really isn’t. They have an Estate section, secluded and exclusive to the guest staying there. The Hotel section, adult only with an adult only pool. And the Villas section, family friendly with a family pool. This resort is 100% ocean facing units. Personal concierge service if you choose to use them. They help you with anything you should need. I used them as well as my husband. They set up balloons ,cake and champagne for my daughters graduation from graduate school and a whole shindig for my 60th bday (thank you Patrick and Austen for this) GBC has an inclusive delicious breakfast with made to order any kind eggs. The breakfast staff is always lively. Junie, Christopher, Sonny, Rachael , Beatrice and everyone that works there! The beach is always quiet. The pools are wonderful with pool and beach attendants, Yeves, Moses, Jerry, Fitz and others. Infiniti Bar was our go to place for lunch most days! Pauline is a GEM. Thank you Pauline for always taking care of us. It’s much appreciated!!! Making my bday very special and my daughters graduation too. Daily and evening houskeeping always a good experience. Stocking fridge with water on a daily basis. Making sure our unit is cleaned and stocked. . Champagne and wine that GBC leaves is a plus. Highly recommend GBC. What I love the most about GBC is even at capacity, it does not feel crowded at all. Very quiet resort. In the evening we love Infiniti bar. It’s a beautiful laid back spot to just hang and have a drink. Included are non motorized water sports. Hobie Cat, kayaks, and SUPboards. Kids and Teen Club available for children looking for a break from parents;)

An absolutely beautiful resort with top notch service. Our concierge team of Trey and Antonio took care of anything and everything we needed, checked in with us regularly and were so incredibly nice. The location of the hotel is perfect. Walking distance to town and many great restaurants. The renovated hotel rooms are beautiful. So many nice touches too like complimentary ice cream every afternoon and tea service. The beach and the sunsets are stunning! Highly recommend! We will be back!!

Had a wonderful mother-daughter trip and we're already looking forward to coming back next year. Antonio and Trey were incredibly responsive and helpful, and Moses and the team at the adult pool provided impeccable service all week—we spent nearly every day poolside and absolutely loved it. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable!
