Etoile de Mer (Star of the Sea) in Turks and Caicos

Nestled in lush vegetation on .75 acre of old beach front, Etoile de Mer offers the best of all worlds 15-year old coconut palms swaying in the breeze, private tennis courts, and the beauty of Taylor Bay.  As one renter wrote upon arrival, "This is insane! It's gorgeous!"

Architecturally, Etoile de Mer combines the inspiration of  gingerbread Caribbean manor houses and modern restoration - new kitchen, new hurricane doors and shutters, new swimming pool, new hardware, new paint, new stucco, new roof - making it an exception of character on an island filled with huge, white rental mansions.

The house is sited perfectly to catch the island breezes through new jalousie doors and windows.  The wrap-around veranda allows guests to sit in peace surrounded by coconut palms and marvel at the beauty of the bay during the day and the miracle of sunsets in the evening.  

Just 100 steps away, Taylor Bay, which many have called the most beautiful beach in the Caribbean, is the only beach which does not have public land access but for you, Walk on the fine white sands, swim in its chrystaline turquoise waters, or take one of the kayaks provided at Etoile out into the Caribbean.

Or succumb to the gentle breezes and relax in Etoile's fresh-water pool surrounded by bougainveilla or read a book under the pool-side gazebo.

Want to play tennis? Do so on the private tennis courts, complimentary to you and your guests.

In the evenings, enjoy one of Provo's fabulous international restaurants, grill your own food on the five-burner stainless steel grill on the upper pool deck, or invite a chef into Etoile to pamper you and your guests. Even better, ask him to fix dinner for you on the beach.

The next morning, be the only one on the beach and, if you're lucky, see a starfish, Etoile's name sake, in the clear water's edge.

Experience Etoile de Mer, a villa that will feel like your own.  You'll love it so much, you'll come back like so many others have.
