65 Reviews of Property 111404 in North Caicos, Turks & Caicos

We visited during the "off season" and didn't realize just how "off" it is! There was nobody else staying at Hollywood Beach Suites. We hardly ever saw anyone else on the beach - at any time day or night. And the beach is GORGEOUS. It's maybe 10 footsteps from your porch door to the sand. There's so many great places to choose from to sit - on the screened porch, in the shade or sun in the little yard area, in chairs, chaise loungers or hammocks. Or sit on the steps leading down to the beach, or on the beach. The little suite is perhaps a bit threadbare but it was very clean and very well equipped. Includes a washer and dryer and even laundry detergent. Kitchen had dish soap, salt and pepper, cooking spray, papertowels, etc etc - much better equipped than your typical beach house. The beach is all soft sand, you don't need shoes. And it's so close to your suite that you don't need a towel or a bottle of water even, you'll just pop back inside if you need anything. Free wifi was very reliable but too slow for us to stream music or video. A movie download took about 10 hours. The selection of provided DVD movies was remarkably good and well rounded. We watched two or three.

The beach faces nearly due north, so sunrise and sunset watching was a bit incumbered by the island landscape. It also gets surf and wind from any storm happening out on the Atlantic. The big waves break out on the reef though. Another cool thing about this beach is that it is partially shaded all day by the tree line. So you can walk or sit in sun or shade.

If you already know you want to go to North or Middle Caicos you can read no further - stay here, it is really just the perfect place. If you are still researching the destination I suggest you give it some reading and careful consideration. The dining out options are extremely limited, especially in the off season. Food is very expensive. Water is not potable. We packed in all our own meals and brought a water filtration system. You can rent a car (cheap!) and enjoy some sight seeing on the two islands but beware that all of the sights are a bit "overadvertised". You will see lots of abandoned cars, signs of infrastructure failure, abandoned houses and abandoned partially completed hotels. There are many skinny dogs. This is a vacation for primarily beach walking, ocean swimming, sunbathing, perhaps snorkeling, diving and fishing. It is NOT a vacation for eating out, being pampered or sight-seeing.

Hollywood Suite something else than a paradise. It's better. We spent 1 week there, and everything was perfect. From the first to the last day, you will be surrounded by attention. In paradise there is angel: here she is alveda. Don't miss her special dinner the night of your arrival, she will take care of you during your stay, and let me tell you a secret: she knows the island... You will never forget your stay there. And we'll be back soon.

We made it back to Colorado late Sunday night. We had an amazing trip - North Caicos is a beautiful island and Hollywood Beach Suites was perfect! We took the kayaks out and rode the bikes around the island. Everyone there was so friendly and helpful! We can't wait for our next visit.

What a beautiful, tranquil place. We spent a week there in April 2011 and it was just incredible. The other reviews were so helpful in terms of planning so we could just stay in and enjoy the simple life. The snorkeling off shore via kayak was superb and we enjoyed walking for miles and collecting shells. Friendly people. Warm water. Soft, white sand beaches. Accommodations were adequate and well stocked with kitchen supplies. We ordered a fresh caught fish every day and cooked it on the BBQ. The government farm was awesome, very rural and simple but great, farm fresh veggies and very affordable. One surprise: It is quite windy all the time and I would recommend bringing a sweater or light jacket, especially if you want to go out at night (stars are stunning.) This is a place we'd go back to and we don't usually say that! Awesome. Memorable!

We had a wonderful vacation. You have the best spot on the island and we loved our time there. Larry was very happy with his snorkeling and was able to relax and refresh. Larry and Linda

I must say that this was the most relaxing vacation we have ever taken. The accommodations were great. The view was OUTSTANDING!!!! What an amazing time we had. We spent most of our days in the hammocks or walking the beach. It was funny that upon our arrival at home, we started looking at the photos we had taken and the majority are of the sunrises and sunsets. That pretty much explains what we did during our 10 days in paradise. Up and in the hammock at sunrise and stayed there until sunset.. Thank you again for your hospitality and I definitely seeing us returning again. PARADISE!!!!!

My husband and I spent a week at HBS and it was great. We were there during low-season so it was especially quite which we very much enjoyed. If you are the type of person who wants to relax when you get away, this is the place. Whether we were sitting on the beach, going for a walk to reading, it was exactly the kind of escape we were hoping for. The folks at HBS were incredibly helpful in arranging the ferry and answering all of our questions ahead of time -- a huge plus!

One thing I would suggest though, is be sure to get your food shopping done on the main island before you head over to North Caicos. The grocery store near HBS is quite small and expensive so if you have the time stop at the large grocery store before the ferry to pick up your food, booze, etc. We ended up having to go back to Provo the second day to get more stuff since we only picked up a few items before heading over. Not a huge drama, but a good idea for future visitors.

All, in all the place was fantastic and we are so glad we picked HBS!

Hollywood Beach Suites, was incredible! From the prearranged Water Taxi Ferry on Caribbean Cruisin (that took approx. 20mins along the most beautiful shoreline) from Provo to North Caicos. Once you arrive in North Caicos you are greeted by a representative from Hollywood Beach where she will bring you back to your accommodations located right on the beach! A native home cooked meal awaits you were you can enjoy it in your screened in porch listening to the thunder of the waves breaking against the natural reef that surrounds North Caicos. Hollywood Beach Suites has everything cozy king sized beds, great pillows, ensuite, laundry in your unit, complete kitchen, dining and living room. All you need is a couple bathing suits and you will have the best vacation going. The local people are kind, gentle and very friendly get to know them - you'll make friends forever.

When you walk out of your suite you will take no less than 50 steps and you feet will be in the ocean and your toes will have white powder sand between them. Your biggest decision of the moment is to walk left or right on the 7 mile beach. The beach is amazing the water is calm clear and warm, the stars at night are something else.

I highly recommend the Hollywood Beach Suites for couples, solo, or girls trip away.

They provide you with a cell phone for calling, the grounds and suites are cleaned daily, it's a great location, safe and friendly.

I can't say enough good things about this property it is amazing!
