4 old college friends / spouses gathered in Turks and Caicos for a week of fun and catching up. Katherine's home allowed us to do exactly what we were hoping for.
Even before we arrived on island, Katherine was welcoming and informative. She was in contact with us via email and text before we arrived, and stayed in contact with us via WhatsApp once we were on the island.
The 2 bedrooms in the house were very nice, and it was nice to be able to walk out to the poolwithout accessing any steps. There is a view of the ocean from the one side of the pool, and the beach is a short drive down the road. We were going to go the first public beach on Lower Bight Road, but then Katherine suggested we go a little further down to the slighly hidden public access beach at Coral Gardens Hotel (which also has a very nice reef for snorkling.
We rented the Honda CRV that Katherine offered, which served its purpose. It's a 4 door automatic hatchback, perfect for short drives to he beach with all the equipment in the back. Katherine had a supply of chairs, floaties, nice snorkel equipment as well as some standup boards (which can latch on top of the car).
The house was quiet as far as neighbors go. It is not right on the beach, nor is the beach very walkable from here. That was offset by the pool, the privacy, and the location close to Grace Bay Beach,Turtle Cove (with a 2nd very nice snorkeling area, famous for its sea turtles & rays), as well as an easy drive to the IGA store
