My family and I stayed at Josee's place for two weeks at the beginning of February 2018. Making the booking was super easy as Josee is very easy to contact and make arrangements with. She literally gets back to you in minutes! The place is located very close to Grace Bay Beach with access all along the strip. It's location is in a dead end (only one way in and out) neighbourhood that has many homes, many of which are rentals, and is definitely in a very safe portion of the Island. We had no concerns renting a villa vs staying in a resort. It is super safe.
The villa is well equipped with snorkelling gear, cooler, beach chairs, towels, bikes, BBQ, etc. We prepared most of our meals at the villa and used the BBQ most nights. The pool is very nice to have. We spent mornings having coffee poolside, the day at the beach and then back in the evenings to cool off prior to dinner. We also spent several days just lounging around the pool and enjoying the peacefulness of the villa and the weather on TCI. Recommend using the app "Windy" to monitor wind and weather as we found it to be most accurate.
The villa manager, Junior, was extremely helpful. He was always in the area in case we needed anything and provided tons of ideas on things to do like the Thursday Fish Fry which is a must when visiting the Island. He is super friendly.
A car is recommended to take in the many beaches on the island, get groceries, and visit the sites and scenes. Da Conch Shack and Bugaloos were great beach front restaurants to have great local meals with your toes in the sand. You won't find a Starbucks or a Wendys on the Island thank goodness!
Overall, my family and I would recommend this fantastic villa. We had an amazing vacation thanks to Josee and Junior who are very accommodating and wonderful hosts. We will not hesitate to stay there again.
