About this property

Welcome to The Caicos Cottage on Whitby Beach, North Caicos!

If you are looking for a vacation to get away from it all, you have found the right place. Caicos Cottage is a beautiful 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom beachfront cottage and the perfect escape from your hectic daily life and from the tourists of Provo.
AC in the two bedrooms and the living room and the pool was completed in Feb. of 2022
This 2 bedroom/2 bath beachfront house on Whitby beach has a king master bedroom that faces the ocean with an ensuite bath. The second bedroom has a queen bed and a bunkbed. Which makes this perfect for 2 couples and families too. The 2nd bathroom is located right next to the second bedroom.
Comfortable beachy house with amazing views of the beautiful blue Caribbean water.
2 ocean kayaks are available for your use as well.
Daily flights into Providenciales and a 25 minute scenic ferry ride makes getting to North and Middle Caicos very accessible!
North Caicos is known to be the lushest of all the Turks and Caicos Islands and is the 2nd largest island of the 8 inhabited islands (the largest is Middle Caicos) yet the population is only around 1400.
You will find tranquility, privacy and peacefulness , unlike that of so many other Caribbean Islands, BUT if you are looking for nightlife and fine dining, this is not the island for you! However if you are adventurous and enjoy the laidback feel of island life, than you have found the perfect place to bury your feet in the sand!

Will be back!

This experience was wonderful from start to finish. Cynthia kept in communication with me and helped me navigate the process of getting to North Caicos, renting a vehicle, and getting around the island. Upon arrival Mac was already there and ready to escort us to the house. He gave us the breakdown of the property and all the amenities. The house itself was great. It was clean, well decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I would recommend reading the binder to inform yourself about electric and water usage on the island as well as local grocery stores, restaurants, and things to do before settling in. The beach was amazing and the whole time we were there we saw one other beachgoer (who was stark naked) but was about a 1/2 down the beach from us. Otherwise we had it all to ourselves. TCI, including Whitby Beach, had the prettiest beaches/water we have ever seen out of all of the Caribbean islands we have been to. We kayaked, beach combed for conchs, and hung out in the pool. We made most of our meals at the house. We didn't go to the grocery store in Providenciales due to time but it ended up not being necessary as the local stores had most of what we needed. Be aware that there is a 4% charge for all purchases made via card at gas and grocery stores. The locals range from friendly to indifferent but we never had any outright negative encounters. The nearby beach bar was great as well. Would recommend getting some conch while you're here!

A haven of peace and beauty

Loved this home on North Caico's. Very quiet location directly on the beach with a great porch and backyard to take in all the sights and sounds of the ocean. Comfortable, varied furniture to find your perfect place to unwind. Enjoyed morning beach walks and afternoon swims. Could walk to Barracudas restaurant for lunch, happy hour or dinner. Enjoyed the lack of crowds. The house was perfect and well appointed. Mac was so accommodating without interfering. Gave us great recommendations for exploring. Highly recommend taking the journey to Mudjin Bay, Bambarra beach and Sandy Point to explore. If you are looking to unplug and rejuvenate this is your place!! Never turned on the TV once - no need.

Quiet and Secluded Paradise

We had the most amazing stay at Caicos Cottage. The location was wonderful with just a few steps to the beach. We had a few days following a storm that the seas were rough as the tide was going out, and the pool provided a perfect retreat. As many have described, there are very few other people on the entirety of the beach, given we were there over spring break we did see a few more, but by no means considered it busy. The house was as pictures, with the master bedroom facing the ocean with a wonderful breeze the entire time we were there. The house overall stayed cool with all the patio doors open. We did need to run the air conditioning in the second bedroom a slight amount each night to initially cool it off. Would highly recommend this property for a small family stay on the island. It allows you to adventure and check out North and Middle Caico easily. A few tips for your visit: there are local grocery stores, but selection is limited, leave yourself enough time to stop and get your produce in Provo before getting on the ferry. Also consider packing dried goods in and bringing in store packaged frozen meat for additional selection from home. Purchase your ferry tickets in advance and arrive early - we did see one family get turned away because the ferry was over capacity. Finally, Al's rental car is the primary option with pickup right at the ferry terminal. Book far in advance, you may need to follow up a few times to confirm your booking.

Exactly as Pictured - Secluded and Peaceful

Incredible stay at Caicos Cottage with our family of 5 for spring break. We enjoy an off the beaten path adventure and this was it. Although the island is not large, the cottage is in the perfect location from a convenience standpoint. We loved having the pool and there were plenty of floats, chairs, towels, and gear for our needs. The view of the ocean and layout of the cottage is truly perfect. We would absolutely return. Mac was a wonderful guide and Cindy could not have been more helpful before our trip with questions/suggestions. Bringing groceries from Provo is a must because the markets on North get weekly deliveries, so things like milk, bread, and eggs may not be available. Plan ahead and you won't have any issues. We will be back!

Dream Honeymoon

Caicos Cottage was everything we hoped for and more! Beautiful beachfront home with privacy and the slower pace that you won’t find in touristy Provo. The house offered plenty of space and all the essentials we needed plus some including the gorgeous pool, kayaks, snorkel gear and even binoculars for checking out Flamingo Pond - Cindy was so sweet and even left us a bottle of champagne since it was our honeymoon. The location is perfect, just a short drive from the ferry, close to grocery stores and the beautiful Barracuda Bar, and only 15-30 minutes from other must see North and Middle sights. Would absolutely encourage a car or jeep rental when staying on North. The water was beautiful turquoise blue and crystal clear our entire 6 day trip and we only had a little sprinkle of rain one afternoon. We spent most of our week sitting on the back porch listening to the waves. Truly felt like paradise and we’re already thinking of a return trip!!

Wonderful and Relaxing

Our family of four had a wonderful time at the Caicos Cottage. With older kids that were up for a few adventures, we decided North Caicos was a preferred alternative to the hustle of Provo. There were a few mosquitoes and bugs but the property was well maintained and the beach was amazing. We appreciate the availability of Mac but didn’t need much help with a little research ahead of time. If you are looking for a quiet spot with amazing beach access and authentic adventures awaiting you, give this place a try!

Seclusion at its best!

We had an amazing time on our trip. The entire time there we only saw 3 people on the beach giving us miles to ourselves. The house was great! Cindy and Mac were very easy to communicate with. Our only downside was that the beach was hit with sargasm for several days due to a storm in the gulf but that's just mother nature for you and did not sway my fantastic opinion of the property and our trip! Will definitely be going back!

When you walk through the door you’ll know you made the right choice

It’s literally every thing I thought it be. You’re on whitby beach which is basically deserted. We saw a total of 6 other people walking the beach. All families. The water is beautiful. The pool is an amazing addition. You can go from coffee on the beach to the pool back to the beach. Have a siesta during the hottest part of the day. Back to beach for sunset and then kick on the pool lights for a “pool party” as my 4 year old called to end the night. They have all utensils you’d need: mixing bowls, pans, pots, etc. The owner even bought us lunch after we had a little mishap. Very classy. Couldn’t ask for more and we definitely didn’t need more. Totally amazing summer vacation for us.

Caicos Cottage

The cottage is exactly the same as described on line. The views are impeccable. The home is furnished very nicely with clean fresh linens and even beach towels. The kitchen was supplied with all cooking needs. It is quite hot and humid, tropical and we were hesitant to use the AC in the living room in the day time. This was primarily because of the unknown cost to do so. The AC units are separate in the bedrooms and therefore great nights sleep in the coolness the AC unit provided. There are also water conservation expectations. Again not accustomed to this and unable to take advantage of the tub in the master bathroom. The locals were all friendly and helpful. The best part of the trip was being immersed in the culture, venturing out with our rented car to Middle Caicos, and snorkeling at 3 Mary Cay (about a 10 minute drive from the cottage). There are floats for the pool, kayaks, and reliable wi-fi.

Really special and relaxing stay

Caicos Cottage is the perfect place for a relaxing, peaceful family vacation. The beach is gorgeous, and having a pool too was great for our family as one of my kids doesn't like the ocean! The cottage is well provisioned and comfortable. Cindy was communicative and helpful both before and during our trip to help us prepare for some of the unique aspects of staying on a more remote island. The property manager Mac was kind and accommodating as we arrived a bit earlier than planned. We embraced the slower pace of life on North Caicos and found adventure in exploring the island along with Middle Caicos. Everyone we encountered was friendly and welcoming. This was a special trip for our family and we made many lasting memories!

Peaceful paradise

This property was everything we’d hoped it would be - and more! The hospitality of the residents of the island was amazing, the ease of check-in and check-out was great, and it lives up to its billing as a peaceful get-away. To be able to walk out one’s door literally into an ocean so clear…the colors were incredible. Thank you for a forever-memorable family vacation!

Caicos Cottage

The stay started with Mac, the island manager greeting us at the harbour and escorting us to the house. Mac is very sweet and really helpful. The white sandy beaches in front of the cottage can't be beat... we walked in both directions (5,000 steps each) and swam in the warm ocean. We saw a couple of dolphins pass by as well as a hump back whale breeching beyond the coral reef! Amazing! The house itself is comfortable, and has just about everything you need for the stay. Comfy bed overlooking the sea. Cindy, ( the owner) was always quick to reply to my messages and was very receptive to my suggestion to get a few more kitchen items to enhance future guests' stay. Having the pool is a huge bonus to have a quick cool off. If you want a relaxing, comfortable stay on the beach... this is the place! We will be back.

Secluded Respite

If you are looking for lots of hustle and bustle and infinite meal choices, then this island is not for you. If you are looking for beach front book reading and a slow pace, then this property is for you. To begin with Mac met us at the dock and we followed him to the home in our rent a car. He checked in with us a couple of times over our 10 day stay to make sure that everything was alright. Communication was excellent the entire time. There are 3 small groceries on the island so choices are limited. There are some small restaurants that offer local fair, Unless you are a princess you will figure it out. There have been a couple hurricanes since the photos were taken so do not expect the property to be like the post card pictures. As the owners go through the repair process I am sure it will be back to perfect. The house is sparkling clean. Never turned on the air. Master suite is steps to the ocean so the sounds of waves lull you to sleep. Wifi was strong enough that four of us worked remotely for the week with out problems. We will return. Reminders...It is the Caribbean so rental cars are there own experience. Bring bug spray. The "Noseeums are a factor. Ferry to the island is simple process to navigate. Locals are happy you are there. If you want a vacation that is just the same as any other warm place in the world, stay in Provo. If you want a slow pace with a smiling face, then book this house.

Just what we needed!

Everyone knows everyone on North Caicos! The island is quiet and friendly with spectacular ocean views and beautiful beaches. Bring a good book (or 2) and rejuvenate! We rented a car and explored the island from one end to the other and returned to our favorite spots several times. Restaurants are not fancy and groceries are expensive but we figured it out and spent a wonderful three weeks! Enjoy!

Love whitby

North Caicos is a unique place. You are only a 20 minute ferry from grace bay but it is a completely different experience. The beach house villa was great. You are right on the beach! The villa has everything that you need. Sleeping in the master bedroom with the sliding door open was amazing. The ocean is only a few steps away. Cindy was very easy to work with and her assistant Mac is a godsend. He will pick you up at ferry and during your stay he is there to help you with anything you may need. Green island cafe is a cute little place for coffee and breakfast. We enjoyed the Friday night barbecue at Mr. Dees. A day trip and lunch at mudjins/Dragon cay is a most. If you are still hungry after lunch and a day at the beach you can travel 5 minutes down the road to the sea view cafe. The lobster roll was delicious. Most nights we stayed and cooked. I recommend that you bring over as many provisions from grace bay as possible.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Newman

My husband and I are partners with 2 other families in a beachfront house on Sapodilla Bay Beach on Provo and an oceanview house in Mudjin Harbor/Dragon Cay, Middle Caicos. So when we saw this sweet gem, we knew this would be a great addition to our investments!
We live in central PA, so having rental properties in the Caribbean has been a dream come true!!

Why they chose this property

We love this house for multiple reasons. The location (beachfront) of course is #1 and the fact that it is so close to the ferry, makes it easy to get to. We also love that this island is not built up like Provo and you really can come here to decompress!
If you are looking for nightlife, North and Middle Caicos are definitely NOT for you! If you are looking to relax, hang by the pool, drive around looking at all the spectacular beaches these islands have to offer, check out flamingos, see whales in the winter and basically not see many people, you have come to the right place!
