One of our favorite places to enjoy a cold cocktail. The food is great, but the views on the 2nd floor are what make this place special. It's also located on the beach in front of one of the more popular snorkel spots on the island - Coral Gardens.

City advice
Ways to save
Rent a car to get around - we drive on the left!
Taxis are VERY expensive. The more common car rental companies are Avis, Hertz, Scooter Bob's, Grace Bay Car Rental and Caicos Wheels. All can arrange to have your car waiting for you at the airport when you arrive.
Getting around
Rent a car
There is no public transportation. While our condo is in a great location and walkable to many things, a car would provide a much better experience. It's easy to get around - but we drive on the left and be careful at the roundabouts! Tip - Expedia has very good daily rates for car rentals.
Book before you go
Coco Bistro
This restaurant is booked up weeks in advance, and for good reason. It's not cheap, but it's a great experience.
