Brenda, Maralyn & Norm

The Hill Team thoroughly enjoyed Turks and Caicos and congratulate them on this award. We visited the last time when Brenda and I as the Tandem Tasters were judges at the Conch Festival. We spent 3 nights at the Gansevoort and 3 nights at the Regent Grand Resort. Both properties offer ultimate luxury which we thoroughly enjoyed. So, from the Conch Festival to luxry–we experienced it all. There are so many wonderful areas to explore, dine, wine, and relax. Turks and Caicos is high on our list for travel. From earning the “Word’s best beach” by TripAdvisor to delightful people, the Turks and Caicos offer it all. The specials below even make it better. However, we would highly recommend the Conch Festival which happens every year on the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend.

PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos Islands – Turks and Caicos Reservations, the Turks and Caicos Islands’ only locally-based e-marketing and tourism reservation service, congratulates Providenciales on being named the world’s best beach by TripAdvisor in its inaugural 2011 Travelers’ Choice® Beaches awards.   To celebrate this accomplishment, the company is offering a range of specials on Turks and Caicos resorts located on the highly-acclaimed Grace Bay Beach, plus bonus travel rewards.

Providenciales’ famed Grace Bay Beach, a 12-mile stretch of soft white sand rimming mesmerizing crystal-clear aquamarine waters, claimed the number one position in this survey of tourists on the world’s largest travel website.  Top beaches were named in the U.S., Europe, Asia, Canada, the South Pacific, the Caribbean, Mexico, and Central and South America and the final rankings were compiled based on traveler reviews on TripAdvisor.

“This is not the first time the pristine beaches of Providenciales have received accolades.  But unlike other honors, this is based solely on millions of unbiased reviews and opinions of travelers who use TripAdvisor,” said Val Kalliecharan, general manger of Turks and Caicos Reservations.  “ TripAdvisor, Conde Nast, Caribbean Travel and Life, The British Sunday Times, Travel & Leisure – all of these sources have highlighted the beaches of Providenciales as best in the world.  Complementing our beaches, we also can boast of award-winning resorts, world- class spas and gourmet restaurants that enable us to offer an unforgettable vacation experience.”
