Over deze accommodatie

Vermijd de drukte - afgelegen huis aan het strand, pittoreske Turks strandbungalow

  • Geen hoogbouw of grote ontwikkelingen, alleen jij en je geliefde op het strand.
    Ons huis ligt direct aan het mooiste ontwikkelde strand van het hele eiland (Pillory Beach), en de stranden van de Turks & Caicos-eilanden zijn jaar na jaar consequent de beste ter wereld.

    Daarnaast staat Grand Turk jaar na jaar ook in de top 10 van SCUBA-duiklocaties ter wereld.

    De Turks BeachsideBungalow duplex is uitgebreid gerenoveerd en een enorme achterporch is toegevoegd in 2013, nu na de orkaan Irma in 2017 zijn we terug gegaan en hebben AIRCONDITIONING toegevoegd aan het hele huis, (niet alleen de slaapkamers) nieuwe koelkasten, nieuwe douchetegels en armaturen , nieuwe kingsize bedden en matrassen, een nieuwe slaapbank voor 6 personen aan de grote kant, nieuw interieur en overal nieuwe verf. En nu.... FIBER OPTIC internet WiFi - het is sneller dan we hebben in Memphis!

    2 slaapkamers, elk met een eigen badkamer. (2 slaapkamers, 2 badkamers) Master heeft een zeer luxe kingsize bed en slaapkamer aan de voorzijde heeft 2 tweelingen die ook kunnen worden omgezet in een koning. Gloednieuwe slaapbank in de Seagull-kant zorgt voor slapen 6.

    Ons huis heeft ook het geluk dat het op minder dan 100 meter van de supermarkt met de grootste selectie op het eiland en 300 meter in de tegenovergestelde richting ligt, het mooiste restaurant op het hele eiland in Bohio resort. Bohio is ook waar u een Hobie Cat, paddleboards, kajaks, en extra fietsen kunt huren. Ze hebben ook snorkel trips, duiken trips, en walvissen kijken excursies. Dit alles op slechts een korte wandeling naar het strand net ten noorden van onze bungalow. 'S Avonds zullen we ons aankleden, langs het strand naar Bohio lopen, zonsondergangfoto's maken, een fantastische maaltijd bereiden, en dan terug naar onze rustige kleine BeachsideBungalow onder de sterren lopen.

    Nog 4 favoriete restaurants op het eiland zijn in de richting van het centrum, 15 minuten lopen of 5 minuten fietsen. Tal van restaurant en de bar opties op het eiland.

    Twee fietsen per Bungalow kant zijn nu gratis beschikbaar voor cruise het eiland.

    Grand Turk is een bijzonder rustige kleine eiland, die nog moet worden ontdekt door de ontwikkelaars en toeristen. We kunnen op het strand voor uren en soms dagen (niet cruiseschip dagen) zitten zonder het zien van een enkele persoon. Heel Bijzonder!
    Echter, op cruiseschip dagen zal er een beetje meer activiteit op het eiland en in de buurt van ons strand zijn. De kruisers zijn meestal op het eiland voor ongeveer 5 tot 6 uur gedurende de dag, zodat hun effect is vrij beperkt. Een late boot zal inpakken vóór 5, zodat onze zonsondergangen zijn altijd afgelegen en prive!

    Het hele jaar door temperaturen van 75-85 zorgen voor een ideale winter of zomer vakantie. We snorkelen in december!

    Getting hier is vrij eenvoudig, maar vereist een extra vlucht om over naar Grand Turk. We meestal vliegen American Airlines naar Providenciales, Turks & Caicos, (luchthaven code PLS) en vervolgens Inter Caribbean Air of Caicos Express Airlines naar Grand Turk. (Ongeveer $ 70 terugreis voor de plas jumper). Kijk deze tot los kopen bij uw belangrijkste vlucht vanuit de VS. Het vinden van instructies en hot-links naar luchtvaartmaatschappijen is te vinden op onze hoofdwebsite - samen met nog veel meer foto's en dingen om info te geven.

    Bedankt voor het kijken, Drew Renshaw uit Memphis, TN.

    Er is nog steeds één plek in de wereld waar je kunt wandelen over een verlaten strand, hand in hand met je geliefde, en de enige zielen in het zand kunt zijn. -
     BeachsideBungalow- Er is nog steeds een kleine, Caribische bestemming waar u de wereld kunt uitschakelen, ontspannen en volledig kunt opladen. Er is nog steeds een paradijselijk eiland dat de toeristische drukte is ontsnapt - een plek die doet denken aan Hemingway's uiterst romantische en heerlijk charmant Caribisch gebied. Dit is een oceaan paradijs van een lange traditie, waar de vissers havik vangst van de dag aan het strand en verse kreeft en schelp hebben altijd een plek op de tafel. Dit is een plaats van ongerepte, natuurlijke schoonheid - aquamarijn surfen en fijn zand dat zo ver als het oog kan zien rekken. Dit is een romantische terugkeer naar ouderwetse eiland glamour, waar de open-air cafes langs de straten en witte peperkoek portieken frame pastel geverfde clapboard. Welkom op de Caribische van 40 jaar geleden - een afgelegen en rustige eiland omrand door gouden stranden en turquoise zee. Welkom bij poederachtige duinen en smalle, geplaveide straatjes die ooit de voetstappen van de Taíno-indianen en de Spaanse veroveraars getuige. Welkom bij kobalt hemel die nachtelijke bloeden in tinten van vurig oranje, zomer-rijpe kersen, en duister rose - en af ​​en toe (maar altijd magische) groene flits van een Caribische zonsondergang.

    De plaats is Grand Turk. De bestemming is Schandpaal Beach. En het paradijs aan de oceaan is BeachsideBungalow. Grand Turk is het Caribisch gebied, dat weinig toeristen ooit zal zien - een plaats van enkele afleiding en zelfs minder drukte. Het is spectaculair mooi. Het is er heerlijk rustig. Het is volledig paradijs.

    En het is aan jou om te verkennen.

    Welkom bij BeachsideBungalow, een duplex aan de oceaan en uw Grand Turk huurwoning, gelegen op een semi-privéstrand grenzend aan de exotische Caribische Zee. Neem uw keuze van Sea Gull, ons grotere huis voor 6 personen, bied twee slaapkamers, twee badkamers en een luchtige, zonovergoten strand-casual inrichting - welke luchtige vakantie past het beste bij u? Wat u ook kiest, één ding is zeker: u drinkt snel uw ochtendkoffie met uw tenen badend in gin helder water ...

Amazing Beach.....

My husband and I stayed at the Beachside Bungalow for 12 nights in early January to celebrate our anniversary. We did a lot of research before deciding on Grand Turk and this property. I have made a list of pros and cons. Pros: The beach, water and weather were fabulous. There were very few people on the beach even though a cruise center beach area is just a short distance down the beach. There is a Smart grocery store within 5 minutes from the house and has a good selection and very friendly staff. The Bohio Dive Shop has a very nice open-air beachside bar and restaurant and is within walking distance on the beach or a short golf cart ride. The Arches on the Ridge is a short 10-15 minute golf cart ride and is by far the best restaurant on the island. Amanda and Chef Ed are great! I would highly recommend everything on their menu. Cons: All of the nonstick pans were very scratched. The dishes in the drawers had food and grease on them. All of the drink ware and all of the other dishes were plastic with the exception of a few plates, bowls and coffee cups and many of the dishes had decorative plastic coating that was peeling off. I ended up hand washing all of the dishes as there isn’t a dishwasher. Not a great start to what was supposed to be a relaxing vacation! The next morning we went to the DoIT Center and bought 2 new nonstick pans. The property manager did reimburse us for those before we left. We learned after we complained that there were new plastic dishes and pots and pans in the owner's storage area?! The floors weren’t clean. There appeared to be a pile of sweepings just swept next to the garbage can and left there. Also, there was dust and dust bunnies around the baseboards and toilets and pedestal sinks. The bikes weren't in good working order. They were very rusty and all had flat tires and handlebars and seats that were loose. Ironically, there was a brand new bike that needed to be put together hanging in the shed. The property manager came out to pump tires and try to tighten seats/handlebars but we felt they weren't safe. The pictures on the website appear to be from when the property was first listed. The grounds need some TLC. The stone path leading from the house to the beach are very hard on the feet and require some sort of footwear be worn. This property has an amazing location, but I can't give a higher rating based on the items listed.

Spectacular week away from the crowds!

My husband and I were trying to figure out where to spend a week off in October and we came across this house in Grand Turk. Although it takes an extra short, inexpensive plane flight from Providenciales, it is well worth it! What was not worth it were the extra fees we paid to VRBO by not renting it directly from Drew on his web page beachsidebungalow. The house has everything you would need plus more you didn't think of. It is beautifully decorated and very comfortable...not to mention your own private beach with nightly sunsets right out your door. Also, a short walk down the beach takes you to a great bar and restaurant at the Bohio Dive Resort. The water at the beach, outside the house, is like swimming in a pool with an amazing snorkeling and diving spot accessible from the beach. Drew, the owner, has plenty of snorkeling equipment for all to use and his bikes are all in good repair. We rode everywhere on the bikes all around the island and we got to meet many of the locals. Drew is very well respected and known on the island, and you are immediately embraced as a "local" with this connection. One day, invest in a golf cart and go to the north part of the island to see the lighthouse and end up in the Carnival Cruise Center in the south when the boats are in for the day .Also, there is a very small grocery store that is walking distance from the house, so food is always available in any direction and easily made in the well stocked kitchen. Be sure to book a fishing charter from Kel at Deep Blue Charters, who lives next door and book an intro to SCUBA experience at Grand Turk Diving with Jason and you will have a week you will never forget. We will for sure book this house again, It is a gem. This will be a week of living outside the box and experiencing all the amazing opportunities that this island offers, topped by this amazing house, it is a week you will never forget. Janice Dixon

Slice of paradise❤️

I don’t even know where to start. From how adorable the home is, to where it is located. The the owners that give you all the info that you need to know, best places to go, instruction that are detailed. This home is truly a slice of paradise. The beach located in front of the home is magnificent you don’t even need to leave to visit anywhere else. Will recommend to anyone that want to get away from all the hustle, to truly relax and enjoy, even if it is for a stay. From a family of 5, 2 adults 3 teens

Perfect Couples Getaway!

The Beachside Bungalow was everything it claimed to be and more! Private, quiet, clean and perfectly located. The white sand beach was amazing and secluded (even on Cruise ship days). The host provided organized details regarding check in procedures and was easy to reach and quick to respond to questions. This property is absolutely the BEST spot on Grand Turk!

Nicest and cleanest vacation rental on the island!

We had a great stay at Drew's Beachsidebungalow. At first wondered if it would be too quiet but by the end of the week we were completely chilled which is just what we were looking for. The bungalow is super very spacious and well nicely furnished. Loved reading in the hammock and tumbling out on to the beach, so close! We rode the bikes provided everywhere and enjoyed the exercise up to the lighthouse and down to the cruise centre. Bohio is a great resort to chill at and had some great meals the creamy lobster and key lime at Grand Turk Inn where fantastic. Loved the Sandbar as a great local beach bar. Drew has a fantastic website with tons more info also. If you want and anti-resort destination then this is the place!!

Pure Heaven!!

My husband and I stayed at the Beachside Bungalow on our Honeymoon. This place was wonderful! The beach, the house, the town...WOW!! Everyone is so nice on Grand Turk. We were lucky enough to meet the owners, Drew and Joanie, during our stay. Great people! Went snorkeling at the Wall and it was amazing. The water is so clear you feel like your in a pool, not the ocean! The house was a perfect size for us two. Very clean and well-maintained. The breezes when you have the front and back door open are absolutely wonderful...no AC required!! Most of the time we had the whole beach to ourselves which is exactly what I was looking for...couldn't have picked a better place. We had a such a good time on our honeymoon!! I would recommend to anyone!

Traumhaftes und ruhiges Strandhaus

Wir waren Anfang Mai für 10 Nächte im "Sea Gull" (die größere Wohnung) des Beachside Bungalows. Von Anfang an haben wir uns wohl gefühlt, super ausgestattet, gemütlich und sauber. Vom großen Schlafzimmer aus hat man schon im Bett liegend einen tollen Meerblick und nach dem Aufstehen Frühstück auf der Terrasse ..... Wie schon von Drew (der Vermieterin) erwähnt, ist der lokale Fischmarkt, also wo die zwei oder drei Fischer gegen 17.00 Uhr mit ihrem Tagesfang ankommen, nur 200m den Strand in südliche Richtung. Dort bekommt man für 10 Dollar einen ausgenommenen Fisch, den man sich dann schön auf dem Grill im Garten am Abend zubereiten kann. Das ganze mit Sundowner in der Hand und mit etwas Glück keine Wolken am Horizont und einem gigantischen Sonnenuntergang. Wir haben uns in Miami im Duty Free gleich mit 3 Flaschen Gin bzw. Wodka versorgt für 40 Dollar (Offer) - und das war absolut sinnvoll, da es auf der Insel ja doch etwas teuerer ist. Bier kostet ca. 1,50 US per 0,33ml bei Abnahme von 36 Dosen. Ebenfalls sinnvoll ist es gleich bei der Ankunft Jack oder wer auch immer euch abholt, nach einem Stop im Liqueur shop und Supermarkt zu fragen, und schnell die wichtigsten und vor allem schwersten Sachen zu kaufen. Mit dem Fahrrad ist das dann etwas schwerer ... Tauchen waren wir im Bohio - 3 Minuten mit dem Fahrrad nach Norden. Tauchgang 70 US oder 2 für 130 US. Alles sehr easy und ohne Stress. Sehr empfehlenswert. Auf jeden Fall mit Kreditkarte zahlen und nicht vor Ort tauschen, auch nicht in Miami, die Rate ist viel zu schlecht. Die Touris vom Cruiseship haben wir kaum gemerkt, auch wenn zwei Grundstücke weiter eine Bar mit Liegen ist, wo man die Cruiser hinkarrt und abfüllt. Musik ist nicht laut und meistens Bob Marley - und damit konnten wir guuuuut leben. Wir haben die Ruhe als absolutes Plus empfunden. Waschmaschine und Trockner funktionieren auch super - also nicht so viele Sachen mitnehmen, die braucht man auf der Insel nicht. Badesachen sind das Wichtigste!!! Direkt vorm Haus ist der Eingang ins Meer nicht der Beste (Seegras / Riff), aber links und rechts (20 m) kann man gut reingehen und rumdümpeln. Leider gibt es viel Müll auf der Insel, alle Glasflaschen werden weggeschmissen und es gibt kein Pfandsystem - entsprechend sieht es an manchen Stellen aus. Aber alles in allem ist es eine kleine Trauminsel, verschlafen und nicht überlaufen wie manch andere. Wir hatten jedenfalls eine tolle Zeit und würden jederzeit wieder zurück wollen .....!!!!!

Would come back again and again...

We stayed on the large side of the bungalow for one week, just my Wife and I for a very low key anniversary vacation. The accommodations are as pictured. The home is well maintained and has all the things you need. As many mentioned, the beach is steps from your back door and is wonderfully quiet (even when cruise ships are in). The water is very clear and has every shade of blue you want to see in the Turks and Caicos water. The location is great for the best of both worlds for a meal; head north about 400 yards to the Bohio and have a very nice meal at their restaurant or head south maybe 200 yards to where the fisherman come in and buy freshly caught fish (we did both!) and cook in either the fully stocked kitchen or on the charcoal grill. We were lucky enough to not have anyone staying on the other side of the unit, so we really had a private stay – but I don’t think it would have bothered us one bit if another family was next door the way the back porch is separated. We always felt safe on the island and in the house. We would bring our young children here without question. We highly recommend Grand Turk and The Beachside Bungalow – we can’t wait to go back!

W.O.W

The perfect secluded getaway. We totally enjoyed the quiet, relaxing and beautiful white sandy beach. If you are looking to kick back and enjoy the beach, this is the place to be. For some entertainment we went to Margarittaville when the cruise ships were in port. First time we rode bicycles, OMG it was a far, exhausting ride. However, GOOD exercise which was needed! The next trip to Margaritaville was by GOLF cart. Lots of fun and visited Governer's beach - what could we say, AWESOME. We purchased food to cook at the bungalow and enjoyed a dinner at Bohio. The water is gorgeous and since we are much the beachgoer, the bungalow was a perfect place to be. The town of Grand Turk is not a big resort style atmosphere but a small island with its own charm. I believe the only thing we could say to improve our stay would be that the beach, since close to a cruise ship destination stop, there was a lot of broken glass bottles and wandering cruise people roaming around. We love the donkeys, they did open the front gate (pretty funny); and the homeless dogs are well behaved (we are animal lovers)..... Thanks Drew for letting us spend our pre-Xmas vacation at your place. Miri, Jennifer and Brenda

Lovely villa in a beautiful setting

My daughter and I shared the smaller property during a week's dive trip. The villa was lovely, cooled by fresh sea breezes during the day and a/c during sleeping. The villa has a distinct charm and a stupendous view of sunset from the back deck. Each night was spectacular.

Worth The Money

My family stayed a week in December 2015 and had a blast. The bungalow is steps from the Pillory Beach. The beach was beautiful and the texture of the sand was incredible. The color of the water was also unbelievable--many variations of blue and green. The bungalow was nicely appointed and if you choose to eat a few meals in, there are nice utensils and pots and pans to accommodate. Restaurants are walking distance or there are bikes to ease the travel. There is a washer and dryer on site so don't overpack. Steps off the beach there's an incredible coral reef teeming with plants, fish and other animal life that are astounding. Only beef was Wifi was spotty but I think it's an island thing and nothing unique to the bungalow.

with no doubts, the best place in grand turks

We just got back from an amazing week in Grand Turks. We are a family from Italy with two jung children age 3 and 5. We all love it. First of all the beach bungalow is very stylish, super equipped and on a great beach. The beach was always empty, basically all for us. Even when the cruises where in, no one was coming in front of our house and we almost didn't notice them on the beach. Grand Turk is a funny place... we didn't want to get in the crowd, and here you definitely stay out of it, but when the Cruises are in, the island from a remote place became a little amusement park. All local people are very nice and helpful. We took a boat trip (the one recommended by Drew and was awesome. The water is crystal clear, you swim with stings ray and had beautiful snorkelling! I have to say that it took a little way to get used to the island pace and to the "non touristic" attitude (except for cruises) but we had wonderful dinners at both hotels in the island. I recommend to rent a golf cart and explore. It is very tempting to stay just on your great beach, but, exploring the island is worth it. Governor beach for example has great water... we discovered it just the last day and regretted not to have been there before. Also the lighthouse is very nice and I recommend to go once with the cruise and after without, at sunset... I have to say that at the beginning we had expectation of a more "resort" style island, and it took a little bit to understand the island, so I recommend to come with the right attitude, don't be scared by local houses that are not always "brand new" and don't expect to have a whole food as a supermarket, but just enjoy this little paradise where the see has colours that only a painter can immagine!

Perfect Escape!

My boyfriend and I just came back from our 8 night stay at the bungalow...we could not come up with enough good things to say about it!! Wow...that view!! Perfect way to escape from real life stress and just relax. The bungalow has everything you could possibly need. Make sure you bring water shoes, sea urchins on beach right behind the house. Make sure you explore the island! All the locals we came in contact with were friendly and helpful if you needed anything. Make sure you check out the fish market! Great food at the Sandbar and The Salt Raker Inn. We will definitely be back!! Best vacation we have been on yet...and not just because we got engaged on our last night!! We loved the bungalow.

great place, but not as private as it could be

We stayed in the smaller of the 2 bungalows which was plenty of room for the 2 of us. The bungalow is fantastic with 2 bdrm, 2 bthrm and great back porch with outdoor lounges & hammock. A great breeze comes through the place if you open the front door and back doors, as the owners ask you to only use the bedroom aircon for sleeping, which we were fine with. The bikes were fantastic and the best way to get around the island. Looking at the roads I was a bit concerned for the welfare of my behind riding on the bikes, but they have surprisingly great suspension. You are located within walking distance to restaurants and grocery stores and to where the local fishermen come in between 4/5 pm with their catch. Barbies is a must, especially for the fried conch and peas and rice. The bungalow also provides you with snorkling gear and you can go straight out from the back of the house, or turn right and walk up the beach to the resort with the red umbrellas and there is great snorkling there. The only negative is the cruise ship bar party venue next door. The cruise ship patrons and the staff were fine. Yes, caribbean party music plays all day long, and fairly loud, but we didn't mind so much as we would get out and explore the island a lot. If you plan on staying at the bungalow all day and just relaxing this might be an issue for you. My issue was with the local boys ( 6 of them) who would sit between our private beach and the cruise centre with their horses and try to sell horse rides up and down the beach to the cruise patrons. We were the only 2 people at both bungalows for the entire week we were there and thought we would have total use of the beach and 2 huts in the back yard, but the local boys would use one to sit under and drink and to tie the horses under. One day I came home from a bike ride and both huts were occupied with 2 horses seeking shelter under each hut, so I couldn't use them. Also, the horses would relieve themselves under the huts and leave a great mess for me to have to scoop up with the shovel from the shed in the mornings. I didn't feel comfortable sunning myself with these boys hanging around so close & with a horse 3m away from me, plus they would stay for the entire time the centre was open (8 am -4pm). Without these local boys, it would feel alot more private & secluded and I would have felt comfortable sunning myself at the beach right our the back of the bungalows. Such a shame as this really is a great place

Wonderful Experience

Beachside Bungalow is the perfect place for a relaxing vacation to get away from the real world. There were 8 of us in our group, and I couldn’t imagine a better housing setup for 4 couples. It provided the perfect week-long summer getaway for us all. Below are some tips/recommendations/observations. - Beachside Bungalow provides the best of both worlds on the island, as it’s a very private location that’s within distance of a lot of the local people and sights. - The water was perfect during our late-June stay. - The washer/dryer is extremely handy - Take advantage of Beachside Bungalow’s back porch in the evenings – the sunset view is spectacular! - Rent a golf cart. - The Bungalow is within walking distance of our favorite restaurant for dinner (Bohio). It takes atleast an hour for the food to arrive at the table, but the music, outdoor setting, and drinks provide relief – we didn’t mind the wait at all. You can either walk up the beach to Bohio or take a golf cart. - A great lunch spot call Konky Joe’s is also within a street walk or golf cart ride. The conch fritters and conch bites are VERY good and the entire menu is very inexpensive. I wish we would have tried Konky Joe’s early in the week. - Highly recommend water shoes for the beach. The Sea Urchins and Coral will cut up your feet if you aren’t careful. - Locals bars and beer/liquor stores are willing to give you a little wiggle room on the prices most of the time. It’s pretty easy to bargain down to $2.50 for a beer that is advertised as $3.50. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with our experience at Beachside Bungalow and hope to return some day!

Kick your feet up and relax!

The Bungaloo was a great place for a getaway from the daily grind of everyday life! The home had everything we needed to be able to take our minds and live on island time! The location is perfect! You can watch the sunrise and sunset everyday off the back porch. Also, there are nearby restaurants an easy walk down the beach. The home was well equipped with everything you need to relax including an outside porch, large couches, and a dinner table for a night if you want to stay in. The home also has cable in case you just "have to" watch the US Open on vacation :).

Fabulous week with friends!

My husband and I joint three of my college friends and their husbands/boyfriends for a week in Grand Turk. The bungalow was the perfect location and layout for our couples' retreat! The home is spacious and gave each couple their own bedroom and bathroom. However, we spent most of our time on the back porch and at the beach. (We rented both sides to comfortably accommodate 8 adults.) The bungalow is located near all of the grocery stores on the island making cooking at home easy. It's also near several restaurants which was convenient because we ate out most of our meals. Bikes are available with the house and perfect for daytime touring, but I recommend renting a golf cart for your stay. You can easily pile groceries on the cart and use this at night when returning from dinner. The only time we used a car service was going to and from the airport. Additionally, there are several snorkeling and deep sear fishing options on the island. We booked both through Crystal Seas Adventures. They pick you up on the water very near the bungalow making it very convenient. It was a fabulous weekend full of relaxation, adventure, and memorable moments!

The MOST Relaxing Week for a Couple's Retreat

Our week in Grand Turks can only be described as one of the most relaxing, enjoyable and best experiences I have ever had. First off, we were greeted at the airport by Jack who Drew had prearranged to pick us up. He was so nice, and made our arrival very pleasant. On the way to the Bungalow, his son (who drove us) told us all about the island, and the do's and dont's for the week. The locals are so nice, love their island as well as enjoy telling you the history and nobody every bothered us during our stay. In fact, the local property caretaker checked on us during the week via the house cell phone to make sure we had everything we needed, after we called her upon our arrival to ask a question about grocery store hours. This was very pleasant as she and her husband were so helpful in answering our questions, but were not overbearing or invading our privacy. We ate out every night except for the night after we went fishing with Tim of Crystal Seas Adventures. We caught 2 Blackfin Tuna and cooked them on the Bungalow grill. The restaurants the owner provided on his list were perfect as we tried and different one each night. The Bohio was by far our favorite place to eat, but we also enjoyed Konky Joe's, The Osprey, and the new Pizza & Beer garden at the Turks Head Inn & Mansion. The AC in each bedroom was so nice for sleeping, and the constant easterly breeze through the house made the entire bungalow so pleasant. The amenities both sides offer are perfect for a relaxing week. Mr. Drew has done an exceptional job providing things to his guest. The beach chairs are very nice, the snorkeling gear was fun to have, and the bikes were fun for exploring close to the house. We rented a golf cart from Nathan and got a great price. We explored the island almost every day and highly recommend the golf cart. After reading reviews on here, water shoes (chaco's) are a must because the sea urchins and rocks can cut your feet. The beach is so relaxing that you can always find a spot to set up the chairs and avoid sea weed, urchins, and the rocks. This is a vacation I will never forget and cannot wait to book our next trip to Beachside Bungalow again soon. Also, we had some concerns before booking our vacation, and Drew the owner could not have been any more helpful. He took his time answering all of our questions, and making sure we were ready for our trip of a lifetime.

A vacation that we will always remember as an adventure

My Wife and two college age daughters stayed in the large side of the Bungalow in June of 2015. We researched VRBO for a family beach getaway off the beaten path. This certainly filled the bill. The Bungalow, as it is known by the locals, is very nice and comfortable, not a resort, but certainly well equipped. The AC in the bedrooms was nice for sleeping, however the breezes on the beach, the Tee Key huts, the front porch and the back porch were medicinal. The beach is white powder sand and the beach combing was incomparable to anything we have experiences anywhere in the US. We found 5 or more conch shells every morning along with hundreds of other shells! The water is gin clear. Water shoes are a must as the coral will cut your feet and there are a lot of sea urchins. The ride to the bungalow reveals a quite little island that is laid back and slow paced. The ride takes you through the poorer part of the island that is somewhat alarming, but every capitalist society will have this and it helps you to put life in perspective. We rented a golf cart from Nathan - You must negotiate with him to get a good price. We explored the island thoroughly. Everyone waves and says Hello. The people of GT are so kind and friendly and love to talk to visitors. On "Ship days", there were some people on the beach and roads and some Caribbean music in the air. A few tourist would walk the beach and the boats were steady taking snorkelers to the wall. On "no ship" days, we had one of the best beaches in the world completely to ourselves. The house faces west, so the sunset's were awe inspiring. We chartered a fishing trip with Screaming Reels charter for a morning an caught a 45 lb yellow fin that we ate on for three days cooked on Drew's new grill. We visited the island monuments and ate out at the sandbar, Irv's and Bohio's - all were fantastic. This is a special place that will most likely develop some over the next few years. We will never forget it.

Relaxing

We had the best most relaxing time. The belongers( locals) were great, I felt safe to get out on the golf cart by myself as a woman. Great house, Great location, Great owners. Sunset off the back porch. Booking through here was a breeze. If i had any questions, Drew was there to answer them. The island is laid back, the "potcakes" dogs bread on Turk are the best. The house was upscale and has everything you need. The only draw back was the back porch needs fans. Looks like there are wires. So this may be a work in progress. We had a group of 4 and had a fantastic time. The water was so clear, snorkeling is right there. We brought two round tubes to float with. I would recommend that you bring something so that you can float. Lots of local restaurants to eat at and the local fish guys comes in every day with grouper, red snapper between two and Three. I would recommend this site, this owner to anyone wanting to get a way to a beach Island. Away from the the fast pace of of everyday life.

Sooo Relaxing!

We stayed at the Beachside Bungalow for a week at the end of January 2015. It was amazing! It's a very slow paced relaxing island which is just what we were searching for. The bungalow was great. The only slight downside was the internet does not perform very well at all. But honestly, that wasn't a big issue. It's fast enough to upload photos which is about all I wanted to do. The rest was just perfect. We stayed on the larger side. It had plenty of room. We really didn't spend much time inside. It's so beautiful outside and on the island as a whole we were only inside to fix meals and sleep. The time we were at the bungalow besides sleeping we either spent on the porch or the beach out front. And as we were leaving they were adding palm top shade out on the beachfront. A nice addition for our next trip! The use of the bikes were a HUGE addition. We used them every day and rode all over the island. We had the good fortune of meeting a couple that lived on the island our first day in and so we learned a little about the island real quick and really got to take advantage of our week there. I just can't say enough positive things about it. I hope that we can visit time and time again. It was a wonderful experience. Go and enjoy it!
