Starfish Stay

During our recent stay at a lovely condo in Turks and Caicos, we were delighted by every aspect of our experience. Nestled just a three-minute walk from the stunning Grace Bay beach, this spacious condo truly felt like a home away from home.

From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the thoughtful amenities provided. The condo was well-equipped with everything we could possibly need, including a fully stocked kitchen with all the necessary appliances, making it easy for us to prepare meals. Beach towels, shampoo, conditioner, beach toys, an umbrella, and chairs were all available, allowing us to fully enjoy our days by the ocean without any hassle.

The owners were incredibly friendly and genuinely cared about our experience. They checked in on us regularly, ensuring we had everything we needed and offered invaluable local tips. From recommending a reliable taxi driver to suggesting fantastic restaurants and must-visit attractions, their hospitality made our trip even more enjoyable.

The facility itself was well-maintained, featuring a lovely pool perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach. We appreciated the added security of a gated entrance that was locked at night, providing peace of mind during our stay.

Overall, our time in this condo was nothing short of fantastic. We loved every moment and are already looking forward to returning next year. Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a perfect getaway in Turks and Caicos!

This trip was a total dream and so much of that is because of our wonderful stay at Carpe Diem, hosted by Michael! The location was ideal. Being directly in Grace Bay is so convenient and beach access was only a 3 minute walk. There are tons of great restaurants and shops, and you can’t forget to visit Lemon to go (the cutest)! The condo was absolutely perfect for our family of 3 and having the corner unit right next the pool was ideal. It was incredibly clean and equipped with everything we could imagine needing. Ronalyn, our property manager was lovely and incredibly responsive! She even greeted our daughter with toys and made her feel right at home. I truly have to say that Micheal was the best host we’ve EVER had! He was super kind and attentive; helping us organize every aspect of our trip. We also heavily relied on his recommendations found in the house manual. Additionally, our flight got cancelled due to weather and he made sure we were fully taken care of! Above and beyond!

Stellar! Fabulous location and lovely place. Best of all were the personal touches: tissue boxes on the night tables, air freshener in the bathroom along with soap shampoo etc, even an assortment of beach chairs, umbrellas and a cooler with wheels. Michael was amazing with communicating and offered great tips and recos, even a welcome bottle of champagne and chocolates as he knew we were celebrating our anniversary. I'd go back in a heartbeat

This location was perfect for my husband and me! A three minute walk to the beach behind us and being able to walk to dinners, grab drinks, frozen yogurt, coffee - it was just great and it was still quiet in the unit. I also cooked quite a bit and the kitchen is well-equipped. Everything was very clean and easy to find. We would definitely stay here again.

Another wonderful stay at Michael's .... everything we needed , wonderful communication for every need .... condo is always pristine and the host couldn't be more responsive and friendly . I can't wait to come back ! Going on 9 stays in Turks and still my favorite island :)

Michael's condo was magnificent. Excellent location, secure parking and easy access. It was wonderful having a fully stocked kitchen for making breakfast and lunches. The bed was very comfortable, there were plenty of linens and it is beautifully decorated. Michael had any and all beach essentials you could need. Michael was an excellent host, responded quickly to all of our questions and checked in on us mid stay. I highly recommend Michael's place, we will definitely stay there again when we return to Turks and Caicos!

I am no stranger to Turks Travels ... and have loved Carpe Diem condos for quite some time due to the location - easy beach walk and being right across from the police station and local shops ! Solo traveler and felt secure .
Michael's place was better than the pictures - as it's very spacious , bright and beautifully beach appointed . Can't say enough good things about the king bed mattress - something to be said for sleeping fabulous on vacation !
One of my favorite things was the separate lobby area ( with a door to close if u choose ) that made you feel as if you could leave ur beach things right there and not deal with bringing them in your separate living space . 
Was a quiet week before Easter so all was serene and quiet within the condo complex !
Would be great to come back and enjoy again !

Michael’s place is the best Airbnb we have stayed at! The condo property was very clean, safe, and convenient. The outdoor living space was wonderful, and the inside of the condo was exactly as described. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing stay at Michael’s place. The location is perfect, just a short walk to Grace Bay beach, restaurants, groceries, and the airport. The unit itself is fantastic – it's the best in the building with a spacious screened-in porch, two great places to barbecue, and plenty of comfortable outdoor furniture. The kitchen is fully equipped, making it easy to cook meals at home. The property is secure and safe, providing peace of mind throughout our stay. We highly recommend this place for a relaxing and convenient getaway!

Our family of four had a fantastic stay at Mike’s place. The condo was perfect for us, over looking the pool and in the best location on Grace Bay. Multiple restaurants, shops and beach all within a very short walk. The condo was clean, well taken care of and had everything we needed, including floaties, beach chairs / towels, and activities for our kids, which was so thoughtful. We really appreciated Mike’s kindness and hospitality. The screened in patio was so pleasant and very spacious. We found the Murphy bed to be quite comfortable and had no issues whatsoever. We would love to come back someday, it was hard to leave! Definitely recommend! Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Where to begin? The place was paradise!! We had a starter kit if coffee,tea,sugar . A basket of fruit, a six pack of Turks head. The condo lacked for nothing. l had an accident (not there) and Michael’s had a first aid kit. Indeed there were things l brought that were noy needed. It’s walking distance to restaurants, shops, groceries. It’s peaceful and anytime l had a question Michael responded ASAP!! I LOVE his unit, his cordiality. The property manager was responsive as well( Ronyn, spelling). In fact we loved it so much we are coming back in July. He has a customer in me for life and his place is well worth recommending (which l will also be doing ) .Greatest Host !!!!

Our stay at Carpe Diem was excellent. The location was central to dining options and easy access to the supermarket. The beach was indeed a five minute walk from our place. The apartment is in fine condition. It was stocked with ample supplies, (I.e., multiple gallons of filtered water, Bounty paper towel rolls, toilet paper, shampoo and conditioner for two weeks, Tide and Downy detergents for washing clothes, etc…). 
The host, Michael, and the property manager, Ronalyn, were extremely responsive to our inquiries. We are thankful for their efforts in ensuring our children had beach play toys and multiple board games for family time - one of the highlights of our time at Turks. Michael raised the bar for airbnb rentals.

Michael was a great host! He responded to us very quickly and helped guide us with whatever we needed. 
The house was very clean, Ronalyn had snacks waiting for us when we arrived she showed us around and answered all our questions.
The house comes with pretty much everything you need to make your stay extremely convenient, they’ve included everything you need to have a nice beach day. The beds were comfy even the Murphy bed was comfy . The sheets were nice and soft the pillows were great.
For someone like me that does not like to be secluded and away from others this is the perfect location. It’s right across from the police station so I felt safe, it was gated and it’s surrounded by shops and cafes (but still very quiet) Literally a 30 second walk to get breakfast lunch , coffee, etc 
This was my first time booking an Airbnb on vacation (I usually do hotels/resorts) but I’m so glad I went with this particular airbnb it was perfect for my family and I
Thanks again Michael!
