First the good. The house is very large and comfortable.The beach is beautiful and the pool is great. Now the bad. The villa is located off the beaten path. It is a minimum of a fifteen minute drive on an extremely bumpy half paved half unpaved road to get to the main area. Food shopping etc. The owners next door... More

We take every guest's review very seriously and are sorry that this experience was not in keeping with the way the villa is usually maintained. We spent 4 weeks in Jan. 2012 working on these issues and have changed staff. The depth of the water in the bay varies with the seasons. Our neighbors are cooperating with us to keep... More

Villa Tropidero is located on a beautiful strip of beach on the Southern shore of providenciales. The beach is quiet with sand so fine that it feels almost like mud when wet (be warned that the house directly next door has two jet skis; had it been occupied during our stay, I assume the beach would have been a little...

So we stayed there over New Year's. I never write reviews, but have a few thoughts. Like the other reviews, the house is not a luxury villa by any means. This was our first time to Turks and Caicos, so I don't have anything to compare it to, but based on what we saw else where I couldn't call it... More

This is a 3 BR villa located on the sleepy (for now) South shore of Provo, in the Turtle Tail Area. Things we did NOT like: 1. Most sites that this villa (including its own) is on, say this is a "Luxury Villa", it is NOT. There are some hints of luxury, but also items that reek of cheapness. 2.... More

Thank you to this traveler for taking the time to point out what they did and did not like about Villa Tropidero. Yes, luxury is in the eye of the beholder, but this villa has been upgraded by the owners during a 4 week maintenance stay in Jan.2012,including a new dishwasher, 55" TV, and many, many other upgrades. The former... More

We truely had a great time relaxing around the pool and on the private beach at Villa Tropidero. There was plently to do on the island if so desired or perfect opportunity to do nothing. We especially enjoyed the sunsets viewed from the beach and the peaceful nature of the lagoon area. The villa was ideal for 3 couples with... More

Villa Topidero is a well-appointed villa, with views that will take your breath away. Ocean views from one side of the house and views of the Juba Sound from the other. The pool area is private and surrounded by beautiful flora. Hammocks hanging in the breezeway are the perfect spot to read a book or enjoy a afternoon nap. The... More
