My family & I just got back from an amazing time at Villa Bashert in Turks & Caicos. Andrew from Wheretostay.com was every helpful in securing us with a crib as well as other helpful tidbits prior to our arrival making our trip run smoothly. As others have posted, Villa Bashert & it’s water views are even more amazing in person! This place has everything…inside & out….every kind of kitchen utensil, BBQ, 2 kayaks, 2 paddleboards, beach chairs & snorkeling gear. We kayaked out to the small islands that you see off the deck. One of the small islands (there is a flag pole sticking up on it) had dozens of Iguanas. They came running out of their hiding places when we approached the small beach area on the opposite side. Julian, is a gracious host/owner & would occasionally check on us to see if we needed anything & would give us some great tips…like were to get some fresh fish at a reasonable price. We used the pool each day and never had to heat it & we also did the 5 min. walk to Taylor bay beach, our favorite beach. There were maybe 12 people on it., the water is aqua crystal clear and you can walk way out and only be knee deep. We also went to snorkeling around the Bight on Grace Bay, park in the public spaces by the Coral Gardens resort. If you want a free Conch shell, hundreds of them are washed up on the beach by the Conch Shack restaurant. My one piece of advice would be when renting a car, do get a Jeep or other SUV as many back roads are not paved and were a challenge. We went to the IGA grocery store and bought items for breakfast & lunch. If you drink coffee, you may want to bring some from home as a small bag costs $18. The Wine store is closed on Sunday so make sure to stock up on Saturday. Our favorite restaurants were Coco Bistro near Grace Bay, also Infiniti at the Grace Bay Club,....make reservations weeks in advance as these 2 book up. Prior to arriving in TCI, I had booked Omnimed to come to the villa on Wednesday early evening to administer Covid tests for our Saturday return to the US, as the US Govt required them taken w/in 72hrs of our flight…cost was $60 per person, we knew the results in 5 min. & got the formal emailed results later that everning…it was so worth it. The downside of our vacationing at Villa Bashert was having to leave paradise as our week seemed to fly by. If you can…book for 2 weeks, you won’t regret it!~

Andrew and his colleagues from Wheretostay.com were very helpful in securing us with a crib as well as other helpful tidbits prior to our arrival making our trip run smoothly.

Our family of five just spent a week at Bashert on Chalk Sound, and it was incredible. The location was absolutely peaceful, and the pool and sound were a perfect place to swim, kayak, and SUP. I recommend that you get your SUP early in the morning, as by midday the wind picks up quite a bit. The house itself was well-stocked and exceptionally clean, with a nice welcome gift from Julien. He was very helpful, and offered many tips on where to dine and find off the beaten path excursions. The pool was a massive hit with everyone in the family, and we often spent hours during the day and into the late evening swimming and playing football. The option was there to heat the pool, but we never used it because the temperature was perfect no matter what time of day. The evenings were very peaceful, breezy, and perfect for stargazing outside. We’ve been to a number of different islands and always stay in villas due to the size our family, but the location, nearby beaches, and stunning views found at Bashert makes it one we will want to return to in the near future.

Andrew was great to work with and very knowledgeable about the island. It’s clear that he’s not a remote agent with no real experience about the island. We gave him our wish list for a villa, and he provided us with a list of locations that were perfectly suited to our family. He gave us great, in-depth advice on where to eat and places to visit. We would definitely use him again and would recommend him to anyone.

Bashert is a great villa. It’s clean, spacious, and the pictures represented it well.

Thank you Andrew for the guidance! The specific details around what to do, where to go, and how to get to and from everything was wonderful. Much appreciated. We had a great trip!
