Have a rum punch or eat lunch on the upper deck of Somewhere Cafe, which overlooks the ocean, the coral reef and the beach of Grace Bay.
A coral reef is located just off the beach, right in the front of the property. This is where Coral Gardens gets its name from. Make sure to take a snorkeling lap around the reef to see all-sorts of Caribbean sea life including eagle ray's, sea turtles, lion fish and more. Please make sure to stay outside of the rope around the reef to keep it protected. If you are feeling brave, take an underwater flashlight and take a snorkeling lap around the reef just after sunset to see other amazing sea creatures including octopus, moray eels and more.
Sometime between 6:00 and 7:30 pm (depending on the time of year) you must watch the most beautiful show on Earth, a Caribbean sunset, right from your very own private balcony.

Consider a day of reef or bone fishing with Captain Barr Gardiner... the best on the island. Don't forget the unexpected meeting you might encounter with Jo-Jo, Turks and Caicos most famous, friendly dolphin. With so many options, you'll have to come back.
Taste the many flavors of the Island. Enjoy a fresh conch salad or grilled cracked conch at Da Conch Shack in Blue Hills, where they catch the conch on-site daily. Or treat yourself to an elegant meal at one of the many outstanding restaurants on Provo. Coco Bistro, a gourmet restaurant where you can enjoy candle-lit romantic ambiance, some of the best food on the island and an extensive wine list.

outstanding property, quiet and away from
crazy hustle of the massive resorts. it’s a beautiful area that the pictures could never do it justice. would recommend and stay here again in a heart beat

Place was amazing and right on the water. Amazing balcony great background noise with the restaurant right next door. Umbrellas on the beaches.

Check in was super quick and easy. Super nice staff in the front office… Scott, Jessica and Claude were always so nice if we ever had a question or needed anything.
The condo was perfect! Just as described. Great view from your oversized balcony with sliding doors that open all the way up. Which we did a couple times when it rained and cooled off during the day. We just turned off the a/c. The mosquitoes were usually pesky in the early morning and in the evening so we are glad we brought bug spray. We always seemed to forget to bring it with us anytime we would go out to dinner. It was nice having Somewhere cafe/bar just next to the pool to grab a quick bite for lunch or a rum punch. Somewhere had music playing but it wasn’t overly loud. The beach was less than a 2 minute walk from the room. There was always beach chairs and loungers available which are for residents of the condo and guests staying at Coral Gardens. Jerome is always there to help get you set up or anything you need just ask Jerome. Snorkeling is right in front… just take a few steps in the water and you will start seeing different colored fish. Go a little further out and you might see a sea turtle or two.
For dinner we went to Mango Reef, Omar’s, Mr. Grouper’s, Hemingway’s, Castaway’s and drinks at Danny Buoy’s.
Taxi service we used Earl Jennings. The front desk should have his number.

Our stay was amazing. The location and views are absolute paradise! We will 100% go back to this property without looking elsewhere. The condo is very clean and exactly as pictured. We had four adults staying in the condo, and really appreciated the "Two Master Bedroom" setup, both with king sized beds and private bathrooms. The reef is directly in front of the condo unit and is perfect for snorkeling. The bar/restaurant next door was convenient. The host was very responsive with car rental, activities, and dinner options. Thank you for an awesome stay, highly recommend!

Beautiful views, friendly and helpful staff and clean and well-appointed condo made our stay just perfect. Loved having Somewhere right next door for quick meals and delicious drinks.
Perfect quick vacation for us!

The unit is just as advertised. We opened our living area to the beautiful view & amazing weather. The apartment was very clean & had everything we needed. The kitchen was well appointed. The privacy for 2 couples was great, each having private bedrooms with attached baths. The staff at Coral Gardens was very polite & helpful. Somewhere bar & restaurant was super fun & convenient. Great staff, food & music. We highly recommend staying at this VRBO, as we hope to go again! Cheers!

The condo unit location is wonderful, well kept and beach front. The location is ideal, close to many restaurants, and grocery store. The reef was directly in front of our condo unit and perfect for snorkeling. The staff at Coral Gardens is very attentive, service oriented and helpful. Having the bar/restaurant next door was convenient and had great food. The host Mike was responsive, very helpful with car rental, activities and dinner options. Thank you for an awesome stay, we would highly recommend! :)

Awesome visit! Property is well maintained! Love the Balcony! Pool is Great!
4.9
Condo was well-appointed, equipped and clean. The view was amazing and we particularly enjoyed opening the patio doors and enjoying the tropical breezes. Somewhere Lounge is a convenient little restaurant on site which offered music a couple nights a week. A coral reef is literally steps outside of the condo and can be enjoyed from the private beach. The staff was responsive and helpful to ensure we had beach chairs and towels at the ready.
4.9
The view from the opening of the door was amazing. So close to the ocean and a huge deck. Pictures are accurate. Pools are very small and not used at all which is fine because you're so close to the ocean. Beach staff was great especially Jerome. Somewhere bar basically acts as their bar/restaurant but separate and their staff was great. Beach great. Small resort as expected/desired and I don't think you could beat this room as one of the best in the resort.

Our stay was amazing! The pictures don’t do it justice.

I'm sure this would have been paradise if the weather had cooperated. Out of the eight days there, we only had one full day that was beautiful and a couple of others with a few hours of sunshine. We had extremely high winds, choppy waters and one full day of rain which canceled our deep sea fishing and snorkeling. But as far as the property is concerned, it is beautiful and a fabulous location. It was plenty spacious for the four of us and opening the windows wide open and seeing that view is incredible. We certainly hope we get a do over!
4.9
An incredible location and apartment. The pictures actually don't do it justice - it is even nicer in person and the views are even better. The grounds are lovely and the staff is excellent. The food at the Somewhere cafe is excellent. All in all a great stay. Highly recommend.

Loved our time at coral gardens! Great location and everything we needed for the week.
4.9
Everything about the property was super nice. The staff were friendly and helpful. We had a great time and will probably come back next year.
4.9
Highly recommend this condo and complex. It is not in the strip of activity to the north but easy access to all of island. Reef right in front so snorkeling any time you want.
4.9
What can I say……it’s amazing! The condo itself is very clean and exactly as pictured. The furniture is comfy and the kitchen is well equipped. The staff at the complex were very nice. We really enjoyed the snorkeling reef and the music from the Somewhere cafe. TCI is a small island and is easy to navigate…..we went to every beach and ate in lots of restaurants because the food was delicious. Thanks for a wonderful week❤️

I thought this place was very good but not perfect there is room for improvement.

This property is just as shown. However, what you can't see is how absolutely perfect it is! The location to the beach and pool was just what we were looking as we booked our second stay in Provo. Gerome at the beach was helpful everyday. Being welcomed with a big smile was heartwarming. We loved being close to Somewhere Cafe and sitting on our patio and listening to the music. We appreciated having housekeeping. We have already booked out trip for 2024. John and Jessica were great hosts, and quickly answered any questions. The office staff was very accommodating. We rented a car which was helpful getting provisions. Taxi Service was available and prompt. I have not one complaint. We can't wait until next year!

Could not have been happier with our stay. The condo was perfect and just steps from the world's greatest beach. We will definitely be back next year!!!

Was great, cental location.
Nice size.
Sunday night band was a train wreck.
So for 3 hours sunday night, was tuff.

My husband, sister and her husband decided on Turks and Caicos for our annual winter get away. The condo location was amazing, and the condo itself was great…..but had a few drawbacks. There was extremely loud music Sunday, Wednesday and Friday right next doors at Somewhere Cafe, which was not divulged to us prior to our arrival. The TV in one of the bedrooms didn’t work, and the office attendant didn’t seem very interested in getting that taken care of, so we went the week without that TV. Regardless of the little issues, we loved the place and would go again! The beach and snorkeling right out front offset the little things that were wrong. It was awesome!
4.9
This is a beautiful island, but the views from here are absolutely stunning. The turquoise waters stretch on and on. Enjoy the views all day long on your covered deck. Everything you need steps away in your condo. Great location with the reef right off shore! A short drive gets you to anything else you might want. Looking forward to going back and escaping winter another time!
4.9
This is the perfect place, except on Sunday. The location is perfect, the condo is great, the owners are great and I will always come back.
On Sunday they play music so loud, i couldn't hear my football game.
4.9
This condo was exactly as described. Beautiful ocean view from the balcony. The staff was very friendly and accommodating there at Coral Gardens. Located on the second floor with no elevator was cumbersome with luggage and groceries but a first floor condo would not have the spectacular view. We would definitely recommend The Bight.
4.9
What a beautiful location and property. We had a fantastic time here and would go back again!
4.9
This property was as the pictures represented. It is located on a beautiful beach and you can walk for miles in either direction. Great snorkeling right outside of the condo. The area also makes for beautiful sunsets. The one downside for our trip is that the onsite restaurant was closed. Wish we would have known more about access to entertainment and food during this time of year. The staff at Corral Reef were friendly and helpful. Be sure to have a car so that yo can access some of the other resort areas. Nice stay.
4.9
This is our second stay at The Bight. We love it here! Snorkel right off the beach at Bight Reef and then enjoy a meal or a cocktail at Somewhere, a beach cafe. The people here are the nicest on the planet. The property and view are better in person. The photos just can’t capture the beauty of the water. Everything you need is in this unit, including 3 different sizes of coolers…a definite plus! We’ve already made arrangements to be back next year. NOTE: Somewhere closes one week after Labor Day for 5-6 weeks. We would definitely recommend you come when they’re open!
4.9
The location on the beach with the beautiful view, the access to great snorkeling and being next door to a very good cafe made the location second to none. Mike and Jessica were extremely accommodating during the reservation process and the entire staff we interacted with were friendly, courteous and efficient. One gentleman, Jerome, took great care of us on the beach. There were a few issues with appliances that were quickly addressed, but the A/C in the secondary bedroom never seemed to cool properly. Would we book this property again, yes.
4.9
This is a wonderful place to stay!
The views are incredible. The property itself is well kept and provided us with everything a person might need. I loved snorkeling right out front and having Somewhere bar next door was very nice. I can't say enough about the beauty of Turks (it was our first time there) and this property allows you to see it right from your "temporary home" THANK YOU Mike for allowing my husband and I to stay at your place to celebrate our 25th anniversary!

Absolutely Fabulous
This property was everything we had hoped it to be and more. It was clean, spacious and stocked with everything we needed for the week. The bed was comfortable and we slept sooo good every night. Being next door to Somewhere Cafe was a huge bonus. The best part is the amazing view of the ocean and beach. We felt so blessed every day to wake up to so much beauty. We are planning a return for next year.
4.9
The accommodations were wonderful and had everything that we needed. Jerome was so kind and helpful with all our beach needs. There was only one night where the music from the restaurant went on later than ten but otherwise just perfect!

Fabulous views
This was our first vacation since the Pandemic. The condo is exactly how it's listed. The location is pefect. You step out and you are on the beach. We snorkled every day we were there and saw different fish. My children even saw a turtle. Check in was so easy the manager was so nice. He took his time to explain the map and tell us where things were. The condo is very spacious and extremely comfortable. It was great to have a washer dryer since we were on the beach everyday. We loved being next door to Somehwere Cafe as well. I would highly recommend this property and we hope to come back soon.

As good as promised!! The location was amazing, the reef was incredible, the condo was exactly as advertised, and the staff were great (particularly Jerome which took great care of us on the beach)!! We hope to return soon.

First off, the view from this unit is beyond words, it is absolutely exceptional!
Coral Gardens is a small complex of individually owned condos. The front desk does most of the lifting in terms of property management so it feels more like a small resort. They are very helpful and although the property and units are starting to show some age everything is more or less in good shape and well maintained. A few notes based on previous comments or things I didn't know before hand.
1. Renting a car is a must. Being my first time in TCI I was not clear about access to cabs, busses or how easy cycling might be. Easy answer, rent a car.
2. The resturant next door, It's VERY close. The low down on the noise is this (based on when I was here). Sundays are loud. A DJ sets up mid afternoon and plays top 40 cheesy wedding songs, it kind of sucks and its very loud tbh. Then around dinner a band takes over, they set up a drum kit so you'll notice it! The rest of the week is no problem at all. A couple of nights a week the restaurant will bring in a singer with some back ground music piped in (think high quality karaoke) but this is not disruptive and it ends early enough. In fact it all winds down well before 10p (including Sundays). I found Sundays annoying but overall not a deal breaker and maybe you're less fussy than me and none of this is an issue anyway. The food is decent in a pinch too.
3. The location of this unit is perfect. Easy access to groceries, many great resturants, various island beaches and Grace Bay. I walked much of the beach in both directions from the condo and this particular area is about as good as it gets from what I can tell, not to mention the excellent snorkeling right out front.
4. The unit has everything you need in terms of cooking utensils and equipment. Although you will need to.buy ALL ingredients including salt, cooking oils, spices etc. If you plan on doing laundry you will also need to bring detergent too. If you've never been to TCI the cost of groceries may shock you. It's probably worth bringing a couple of Tide pods and whatnot from home.
Overall this is a very spacious, clean, safe and comfortable condo that I would recommend to anyone for just about any occasion. I can't wait to come back!

Better than the pictures!
A truly amazing property. So close to the beach and a friendly vibe from the staff. Well stocked kitchen- we enjoyed breakfast on the patio everyday. The bar and grill at the resort was tasty and reasonably priced by island standards. Easy check in and out and helpful staff!
