BEACHFRONT - RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR! WALK TO TOWN AND RESTAURANTS.

I must say this was the best place we've ever rented for a beach vacation. You step out the door onto your beach. We saw only two people walk along the beach the whole week we were there, even when the cruise ship was in. The water is gorgeous. The unit had everything we needed, including a scrabble board, which we played every night. The apt was bright, clean, and spacious. We also loved the two potcakes (dogs) that went with us everywhere, including into the restaurants. We loved having coffee and breakfast on the patio. The unit comes with two bikes to use, and we used it for the whole week touring. We didn't rent a vehicle at all. Everything is close by or biking distance. We explored from one tip of the island to the other. Loved it !!! If I were to add something to the unit, it would be snorkel gear, and a barbeque. We will definitely be back to rent here again.

Stayed at the Crabtree Apartments this past December 2012-January 5th,2013. We had a wonderful stay in the South unit, unit 1. Beautiful location with the beach and ocean right outside of the back door. Sound was never an issue between the aprtments or from the road. You do hear from the veranda just because they are attached but the wall between makes it private. The pictures are exactly what you get. The veranda was my favourite spot in the morning to read and have my coffee....it was my hubby's favourite spot for an afternoon catnap and reading his book in the late evening. The ocean breezes kept the apartment cool through the day and night. Both bedrooms have air conditioners which we sometimes used. The sounds of the waves when you wake up is amazing. The apartment was just what we needed, and the bedrooms spacious and bright. We ate in the apartment most evenings and went out for lunch on some days. Kitchen is well equipped to eat / cook in, if that is what you wish. We enjoyed fresh fish a few times that we cooked ourselves....people are so friendly...just ask and you will find where locals go for fresh fish, to eat, or to buy groceries/food...It took some time to navigate ourselves but the apartment is in a great location for getting to restuarants or grocery stores. You could use the bikes provided or walk. The merchanidise choices in the stores are not what I am used to, but was ready for that. We are a family of 4 and tavelled with our 2 boys (9 and 11). Some comments on various review sites said that 11 days on Grand Turk would be too sleepy for 2 energentic boys but that was so far from the truth. They snorkled everyday right in front of the apartment. Found that this was the best location compared to all the other beaches we visited. Of course a trip to some reefs in the middle of the ocean is still the best. Could walk the beach in both directions also, which I did everyday. Great beach to collect shells and sea glass. We rented a golf cart for a week and this was a great way to explore and find grocery stores or just visit various sites. The dogs are wonderful too. Be sure to pack some dog kibble and treats with you to feed them. They are lovely.
It was a wonderful trip....hubby and I came back more rejuvinated than we have from a vacation EVER! Kids are asking when we will return ;)Feel free to email me if you would like more information.

We stayed at the Crabtree from may 11th till the 19th. Our time there was so relaxing. Here our a few of our suggestions: Rent a Golf Cart from Nathans Rental. We had a golf cart for the entrie week. We hesitated at first as it costs $350 for the week, but it was money well spent. We cruised the island every day. There is more to see than one would expect on a small island. We especially loved the Lighthouse. We went there several times. Great pllace to watch the sunset. We also loved the Sandbar Restaurant. Great grouper sandwiches. Rum punch at the Secret Garden was yummy. They also had a good omelette. We did go to the Osprey fro BBQ night. It was pricey but very yummy. The Crabtree apts were great. Clean, homey and the location is the best on the Island. The dogs are super nice. They never bother you. They just like to come around, hang out under the tree, swim and play. They look like the happiest dogs I ahve ever seen! Would highly recommmend the south unit, if it is avalable. It is more private and has a better view. The middle and north unit are also very nice.

Enjoy!
