Spend a day on stunning Grace Bay Beach in the Turks and Caicos Islands, and one thing becomes crystal clear. On Grace Bay, the brighter the sunshine, the more vibrant the ocean color.

Witnessing Grace Bay’s 12-mile marriage of powdery white sand and turquoise water is a reflection one won’t soon forget. For guests at the Regent Grand Resort and Spa, there is no better view of this all-natural spectacle than from the sweeping balcony of your luxury suite.

In 2007, the Regent Grand opened to lofty reviews on Grace Bay’s most desired piece of real estate. The Regent Grand is located on the equivalent of the Grace Bay Beach 50-yard line. Convenience is the gold standard for guests staying in a Regent oceanfront suite.

Located across a narrow strait from St. Vincent, 35-acre Young Island features 29 private cottages, a spa, pool, tennis courts, watersports, and access to SCUBA diving.

Young Island Resort is five minutes by boat taxi from the main island of St. Vincent, and a few minutes from Kingstown. The island itself looks a little like the very top of a mountain just popping its head above the water. Cottages are nestled along the beach, into the hillside, and on the very top.
Accommodations at St. Vincent’s Young Island Cottages
Young Island Resort’s 29 cottages are divided into four categories. 19 “Superior” (the most basic category), then, in ascending order of luxury, 4 “Deluxe,” 5 “Luxury Suites” (each with a private plunge pool), and the ultra-luxe Duvernette Suite. The latter is a small house on the summit of the island, with two bedrooms, living and dining areas, a large patio with an eye-popping view, and a plunge pool big enough to swim in.
