VILLA SERENE—2 Bed, 2.5 Bath Villa with Beach Access just steps to Sapodilla Bay
This beautiful 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath Villa is a dream! No
In an unbeatable location, this house is located on Chalk Sound with kayak access. It is located directly across the beach from the entrance to Sapodilla Bay and a short walk to Taylor Bay, two of the most beautiful beaches on the planet. Sapodilla Bay, one of the most gorgeous--and largely underappreciated--beaches on Turks is literally across the street. It is a 10 minute drive from the airport, 15 min drive from Grace Bay, 30 second walk to Sapodilla Bay and 2 minute walk to award winning restaurant, Las Brisas.
The house is outfitted with high chair, bibs, baby spoons and cups, and a wagon full of beach toys! It’s close proximity to the beach makes naps easy. Did I mention there is a dipping pool and small beach area? Early risers? No problem! Sneak those rascals into the main pod while the others sleep in!
The house is divided into two pods- a main pod and a living pod. The main pod has a kitchen, dining set, couches and TV with a half bath. The living pod has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The Master Suite has one king bed. The other suite has and two twin beds that can be configured into a king as well as twin bunk beds and can comfortably sleep up to 6. The wraparound deck connecting the pods is gorgeous to sit and enjoy the sun or relax at dusk. 2 Kayaks (1 single, 1 double) are available for guest use.
If you are looking for more space or traveling with other families, we can put you in touch with the immediate neighbors to book the neighboring Villa with the same footprint as well or others in the area.
Villa Serene was the perfect name for this property. It is the perfect place to escape and experience true serenity.

Great location with access to Sopadilla Bay and Chalk Sound. Quiet and beautiful. Great kitchen and common area setup. Nice little pool to get into after being in the sun on the beach all day. Will definitely be going back
This was our third stay at Villa Serene, and we will return again. The home is comfortable and the location is great for people who want proximity to Sapodilla Bay and who want to be away from Grace Bay.
Excellent location for what we were looking for and check in process was excellent with them being flexible enough to let us drop off luggage early. Great house very peaceful and comfortable. Thanks
Amazing location. Loved being right on Chalk Sound, beautiful views and great kayaking. Having the two best beaches (Sapodilla Bay and Taylor Beach) right there makes this such a convenient location. The house had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our stay. loved having the deck all around the property and multiple seating areas. Would definitely recommend and come back!
Gorgeous view it the sound and enjoyed the constant breeze allowing for open air and no need for air conditioning. Property manger was very responsive and property exceeded our expectations. Loved having orubate parking with easy walkable access to the beach right across the street. Will definitely be back to visit again!
We loved our stay! It was so great to be in a home with a kitchen so we didn’t have to always eat out. The location was stellar - we woke up every morning to the million dollar view of Chalk Sound. The beach was across the street and I was thrilled to not be staying on the beach because they played loud music all day and we like the peace. It was a 15 min drive to the Grace Bay area with all the tourist trappings, so it’s best to rent a car. We loved it and would stay again.
We had such a great time. The house was just as advertised. Very clean and well maintained. Great communication with the property manager. The beach was right across the street, so convenient. Loved everything about this vacation.
From booking to check out, everyone was very responsive and answered all my questions. The property was conveniently located being walking distance to Sapodilla Bay and Chalk Sound was accessible right from our back yard. The restaurant Las Brisas next door was also convenient for one of our evening dinners. The house had everything we needed. It had a perfect small lounging pool and spacious kitchen. Paddle board and kayak along with other pool toys were a great enhancement to our stay. Thank you to Julian, Tamika, Jona and the entire team for a fantastic visit.

Overview
I’ve stayed in many VBRO but this is the first time I’m leaving a comment. Very strange property as bedrooms are in a separate building. Very clean and check in was very easy. Messed up safe and got assistance in 30 minutes.
Our stay was great. The house was just as pictured, lots of windows, great views, and very comfortable. Plenty of bath linens and beach towels. Kitchen was well stocked.
Good amount of seating both inside and out. The pool was really nice. Sopadilla Beach entrance was across the street. Taylor Bay Beach was a 2 minute drive. Las Brisas was a short walk. We did experience mosquitos, never had an issue before so I am not sure if it was the time of year or that we were right on the sound with some still water. I would definitely recommend this place. Sorry we had to leave!
We enjoyed our stay at the villa serene on Chalk Sound! The property is exactly as described and the host and property management were easy to communicate with. Highlights included easy walking access to LaBrisas restaurant and the adjoining Neptune Villas which had tasty food and gorgeous views. A car is essential at this property and we found ourselves a 15 minute drive from Grace Bay and other areas we explored. The small beach across the street (Sapodilla) had gorgeous sunsets and calm warm waters, but sadly lots of litter and trash, and overcrowded chairs for rent, due to the vendors, so we didn’t frequent that spot. The kayaks and paddle board made exploring Chalk Sound an awesome and easy adventure.
This was a wonderful location and property for our family. The sleeping area was very comfortable (bring a monitor if your kids go to sleep early), the kitchen was well equipped, and the pool was perfect. It’s about 4 feet deep but there were life jackets for our new swimmer. We loved to kayak out to see the iguanas on the island!
The property was consistent with the photos. We enjoyed our mostly quiet stay. There was some noise from the beach across the street until late one night but was mostly quiet. Nice restaurant within walking distance. Pool was not big but was big enough. Small beach on sound. Easy check in and out. Second picture is the beach across the street.
Place comes as advertised. If you don’t know the island or the area Chaud

We especially liked the quiet setting and the beautiful scenes at Sapodilla Beach and overlooking Chalk Sound. Our only difficulty was the flat tire we experienced on the not so well maintained roads.
I cannot say enough great things about Villa Serene! Perfect for a couple, perfect for a family and the location can’t be beat. It really is 30 seconds from Sapodilla. I would recommend this place to everyone I know and would definitely stay there again. It’s very obvious the owner loves this home very much and wants to make sure anyone who stays in it feels equally loved!
Couldn’t have picked a better rental. Absolutely stunning views of chaulk sound and the home was more than perfect with all the amenities plus some! Steps from Las Brisas and Sapodilla Bay Beach, we loved this location. 5 stars for sure and would return here in a heartbeat. Highly recommend and appreciate all the great communication from the host and management team.
House was spacious, deck was awesome, pool was great to cool off in, beds were very comfortable, kayaks ready to go, snorkel equipment ready to go, BBQ grill worked well, etc. Overall, very happy with this place. The only very minor things are to bring are your own coffee (ground mine at the IGA grocery store), your own shampoo (there isn't any), and we used cupcake pans for a cookie sheet. Very minor. Las Brisas restaurant next door was really good, too, and crazy convenient.
This villa is pretty much exactly as shown but I was fooled by the good reviews as I expected something nicer. I feel bad leaving this review but it's what I wish I had known. We left after one night to stay elsewhere so this was an expensive learning experience.The interior looked nice and had a ton of amenities but it was not very comfortable. The king bed is so hard and squeaky. Bedroom window blind was broke and no curtains made a really bright early morning. The sofa is a futon and you can't lean against the arms, the chair is small and hard, the TV is tiny and slow, not comfortable for a family movie night. Extra charge to use A/C.The exterior was more like a cabin feel - large spiderwebs, hornet nest, jelly fish covering the sound beach, stray dogs, loose/raised screws in the patio decking, pool too cold to use, weathered kayaks, hanging exterior cord and exterior lights that didn't always work.Sapodilla Bay beach access is super convenient but felt like a local hangout with loud packed cars flying down the road. Public parking lot right next to villa was loud and crowded. The beach itself was narrow hard sand, crowded, loud, pushy vendors, not a very nice beach but the water is beautiful. Taylor Bay beach was absolutely perfect but not a very short walk down a narrow road, so we drove. Having chairs and umbrella to bring was nice.OK for a local vibe if you don't expect anything luxurious. Property manager was fantastic though, very friendly and accommodating.
Where to begin on our amazing stay at Villa Serene!
The location alone deserves mention. You are within walking distance to some of the most gorgeous beaches and water in Turks and Caicos: Sopadilla Bay, Taylor Bay, and Chalk Sound National Park. You can also walk to Las Brisas - a fantastic restaurant with AMAZING views. They also offer a 2x hour pontoon boat ride with snorkeling for $70/ per person (unheard of in Turks and Caicos!) that we could not recommend enough - it was our favorite part of our trip and we could walk there from the villa!
The villa itself has everything you will need for a comfortable stay! The kitchen is fully stocked and there are things like beach chairs, snorkel gear, life vests, beach towels, bath towels, children's games, etc. There are also kayaks and a paddle board for use. We took the kayaks out in the crystal clear Chalksound (your backyard!) and it was incredible!
We saw some great wildlife as well - iguanas and great bird watching!
Most importantly, the villa provided a local management contact, Julian, who was incredibly kind and helpful. He met us at the house as soon as we landed from the airport to show us around the accommodations and make sure we were comfortable - even providing complementary beer and snacks. Throughout the trip, he offered suggestions for activities and also attended to any of our needs promptly. Thank you Julian!
Don't hesitate to book this villa - we would return in a heartbeat!
Villa Serene was the perfect spot to call “home base” for my family of 4’s first trip to TCI. The footprint is unique being in two separate buildings. I liked that each bedroom had its own private full bath, as well as a half bath in the main living space. The kitchen was fully stocked. Small but comfortable space for watching TV, but we never did. WiFi wasn’t great in the sleeping pod, but no problems at all in the main living space. The pictures don’t do the view of Chalk Sound justice-it’s incredible in person. We used the kayaks and paddle boards. It was great to be directly across the street from Sapodilla Beach. The restaurant Las Brisas is next door and was delicious. Check out Omar’s nearby for lunch or dinner-that was our favorite dining spot. Island main roads are all paved including travel to the villa, but we were glad to have rented a Jeep as we like to explore and some of the roads are quite bumpy!! House location was great because we were away from the busy Grace Bay Area, but everything we wanted to do was no more than a 15-20 minute drive. The property owner and property management group were wonderful to work with. Highly communicative and quick to respond to any questions we had. We appreciated receiving a detailed welcome packet ahead of time which helped us plan our week-long stay with the owner’s recommendations and in some cases discounts! Thank you for sharing your beautiful slice of paradise with us, Karen!
