Amazing

First time to TCI and we will certainly be back. The property was just as listed and was so conveniently located within the center of the island. It is a bit off the beaten path but it was exactly what we wanted. Cesar was very helpful during our stay and ensured all our questions and needs were met! Can't wait to return and will certainly book again.

Love the area and private beaches nearby

Property was in our favorite area to stay! It was in need of a deep clean and several light bulbs were out. We replaced the ones we could.The washing machine was touch and go and it was hard to get going. Overall, we had a great week.

Needs maintenance, location is not the best.

I don't like leaving bad reviews. This property, based on what we paid, was disappointing. Location is nothing special, and the upkeep on the property is definitely lacking. The cottage was okay, but definitely not worth the price. There is nothing nearby if you like to stroll, and Flamingo Pond is not much to see. It's a wothwhile property if were a little more of a bargain.

Peaceful retreat for a family of 4

Our family enjoyed the property overall - it was bright and modern, just as depicted. We spent a lot of time at the pool and relaxing outside/enjoying the view. The location was off the main strip, but still central- given that this was our third trip to Provo, it was appreciated. There were some small things here and there that could use a handyman's assistance (note - be careful, the screen door on the back porch seems to lock automatically, some of the outdoor furniture/grill could use some maintenance - probably by virtue of being outside in salty air) and the hot water never got very hot - we later realized the hot water tank had been set to the lowest setting. From a communications standpoint, Cesar responded to my first inquiry within a couple of hours. However, I didn't get a response to my second, slightly more urgent one concerning a pest situation sent a couple of hours later until 5 days later, the day before we checked out.

Good property, Needs some Tender Loving Care

A nice property but lacks attention to detail. Would benefit from a dedicated property manager. If there is one, they are clearly not doing their job. As a seasoned traveller, I appreciated the secluded property, competitively priced. Photographs were accurate. This place could be so much more. I did not receive accurate check -in information and had to access VRBO help in order to access the property, Two rolls of toilet paper were provided for a week long stay, A quarter of the lightbulbs were burnt out, including all of the electronic candles, which were doubtless intended to give a ‘cultured ambiance’ Pool pump was broken and not repaired until day 5 of a seven day stay. The pool was therefore inaccessible. I had no contact information for the owner/property manager. The screened in porch was a nice feature but was rendered dis functional by a broken door. The BBQ was in an advanced state of disintegration. The above list of deficiencies were the highlights. Many more less significant but non the less irritating deficiencies were present. I liked the property overall , I would stay again should the owner wish to attend to the obvious shortcomings. Regards John

Family Retreat

Overall property was in good condition and as pictured. The split bedroom layout was very conducive to a family with bedrooms on either end of the house each with their own bathroom. Kitchen was well appointed and while we didn't use it, they did supply drinking water in a water cooler on the patio - a nice addition as they did not recommend use of the tap or fridge water dispenser. The pool was quite refreshing following playing some volleyball or badminton and/or a SUP/Kayak paddle out back. We used the cooler and four beach chairs when we went to the beach and opted to rent a shade umbrella. While the property is not fenced nor gated, we generally felt quite safe. Although someone did access the laundry area and take some laundry detergent (which is in an exterior utility closet outside of the house.) There was a gardener and pool maintenance staffer who came during our stay - noting regular scheduled maintenance (as well as garbage/recycling day) would have been useful info as we initially were uneasy about the 'guy wandering around out back.' It's likely best to have access to a car. The road that is used to access the property is not paved and quite rough, but when taken slow it was fine for the Honda Fit that we were driving. It's about 20 minutes from the airport and Sapodilla Bay, 15 minutes from Grace Bay and 20 minutes from the Leeward Settlement/Blue Haven Marina (where our clear kayak and boat excursions left from.)

A great little house at a good value point, nice view over water.

Seahorse cottage is a very nice little house, in need of a bit of repair, but clean, good beds, and overall the caretaking is very good. Pool care was very good. Kitchen is excellent. Water pressure and on demand HW heater were slow. It needs a new BBQ badly, which I asked for and was told had to be brought in, no good ones available. I also asked to have the screen door of porch fixed, ands it got progressively less well attached and noisier, but that didnt happen. For us the location was fine, and I knew where it was, no surprise. It is a bit of a hike for someone new to the island, but you are very close to the IGA and all amenities. I was disappointed that I couldn't use the paddle board, and it is really very shallow, and to do what Cesar (the owner- who was very good) suggested and take the keg off would have given me no control. This winter was very windy, and it howled down Juba Sound every day, too much for paddling there. Otherwise we had a very comfortable 6 week stay. Given the prices of houses in TCI, this is a very good stay for the price, location wise, and I would recommend it. We are going one rung up next winter, but only as it works out, and this was our first longterm stay. At the value end of the price range, this is a very good place to be. The screen door needs fixing Cesar! Otherwise, many thanks!

Family Vacation

We enjoyed our 7-night stay at the Seahorse Cottage. We have two teenage boys (15 & 16) who are very active. They enjoyed the pool & they enjoyed the kayak (1) and SUP board (1). The pool has under water lighting for night swims. The low lighting allowed my husband and I to enjoy the stars while we sat on the two reclining chairs. There are plenty of pool and beach toys. Four large beach chairs and an umbrella are also provided and a must for the beaches. The screened in porch was also nice. We did not utilize the grill or the table and chairs as we ate dinner at local restaurants. We enjoyed Big Al's, Da Conch Shack, Bugaloos, Omars, Somewhere Cafe, Las Brisas, and Mr. Grouper's Restuarant. Most offered outside and inside oceanfront seating. Most allowed for covered up swimwear. Breakfast was a quick meal for us, and we packed our snacks and lunches. The kitchen was perfect for our needs. The large and doubled door refrigerator/freezer provided plenty of space to store our food for a week. We shopped at the local IGA. The kitchen also has plenty of clean and modern plates, utensils, and glasses. We used paper products for the convenience of not having to wash dishes or to use the dishwasher. There is a modern toaster and coffee maker. The living room was nice at the end of the day. The couch is cozy. The television is large and has plenty of channels to choose from. The Wi-Fi is free and supported our seven devices without delay or lag no matter where you were in the house. The two bathrooms were great for our needs. One has a shower, and the other has a bathtub/shower. There are plenty of fluffy, white towels for bathing. There are bathmats in each bathroom. Plenty of space is provided to store toiletries on shelves and in the medicine cabinet. There are beach towels too. We didn't bring out own, so we had to wash towels daily. The king sized and two twin sized beds were cozy. The linens and comforters are soft. Great storage space for clothing. Other than a few ants (who doesn't have ants), there were no other unwanted pests. Everything was clean and modern. We had no concerns during our stay, so we only had contact with Cesar before and after our stay. All instructions and suggestions were easy and straightforward. Thank you, Cesar and Caren, for having us!

Beautiful pool and screened in porch overlooking the lake.

Cesar was quick to respond to all of my texts. There is a lovely pool and screened in porch overlooking a lake. It was very peaceful and we thoroughly enjoyed the privacy and tranquility. The master bedroom pillows were a little flat. We would definitely stay there again.

Perfect for a family of 4!

We just spent 11 nights and had an amazing time. This house is perfect for a family of 4. It’s charming. There was an abundance of towels and kitchen equipment, everything you need to feel at home. Cesar is a wonderful host. Extremely attentive to any issues that might arise. He was easy to reach and very generous. We would stay again in a heart beat!

Laidback Family Stay on Provo

Wow! We loved our 9 days at Seahorse Cottage and would certainly recommend to other families, especially those with kids in that 4-15 range. Ours were 6 & 10 at the time of our stay and having the private pool was a great way to wind down each night after being out and about at the beaches all day. The kitchen was well stocked (could use a few more forks, though) and had everything we needed. the grill was in good working order. The AC was awesome! We kept it off during the day and pulled the shades to keep energy costs down. At night we used the AC to cool the house for sleeping, and it was very fast. Having laundry onsite helped us pack minimally and return home without 6 loads of clothes to wash! The only suggestions I'd make (and we could have fixed this ourselves if we were that desperate) would be to offer a few other pillow alternatives - those in the master were pretty flat and uncomfortable, and have more disposables available. After the first week was up, we were low on hand soap, dish soap, toilet paper and paper towel. But nothing I'd complain about as all is fixable. The property was quiet, safe and and lovely!

A respite from Grace Bay

We had been here 20 or 30 years ago. Grace Bay is pretty but too commercial and grown up. Food there is good but the emphasis is on presentation, not taste. This cottages is 10 minutes from Grace Bay and calm, quiet, and conveniently located. It's exactly as depicted and a nice respite from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the island. But be careful of speed bumps and don't look for Juba Lane -- it doesn't exist any more.

Peaceful stay

The property was attractive, comfortable, and everything worked. It was a short walk to a lovely beach. The only other beach inhabitant was an occasional pelican. The property is convenient to a supermarket, restaurants, and other beaches. The screened patio was a good addition. The plunge pool was refreshing.

Cozy and Comfortable with Great Views!

My family stayed at Seahorse Close for 10 days. This was our third trip to Provo, but this time we brought along our 2 adult kids (20 & 22). The home was modern, cozy and clean. We enjoyed the pool, kayak, volleyball and views of Flamingo Lake. Yes, we had two Flamingo sightings, too! Having use of a pool float, beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, towels and laundry was especially helpful and appreciated. This home requires a car rental but it's location is central to all the popular restaurants, beaches ie., Grace Bay (go to Somewhere Cafe and snorkel the reef (saw tons of amazing fish, like ., puffers, Barracudas, turtles), Sapodilla Bay Beach (found a starfish and checked out the ship wreck above the dock), Leeward/Sunset Beach (fun for conch diving and snorkeling the reef) -- also close to the IGA Supermarket and Flamingo Pharmacy (for COVID testing). There's also a private beach nearby which, if lucky, you can spot a Caribbean Starfish. We also booked a 1/2 excursion to Half Moon Bay (Caribbean Crusin'), and parasailed on Grace Bay (Captain Miguel 649-331-6363). The owner Cesar was super communicative and answered all my questions (I drove him nuts! LOL). Thank you Cesar for sharing your slice of paradise with us. What a gorgeous area the Venetian Road/Turtle Tail Drive is! We love Provo and will be back.

Hidden Island Treasure

We stayed at Seahorse Cottage for 10 days in March 2017. Seahorse Cottage is tucked away in Turtle Tail on a quiet cul de sac overlooking Juba Salina away from the crowds but not too far from restaurants, grocery store, etc. The cottage is well equipped with everything you will need including a local cell phone, wine frig, grill, washer/dryer, screened porch was delightful to get out of the sun during the day and relax in the evening. Pool and pool deck area are small but fine for 2-4 people. We used the A/C in the bedroom in the evening for sleeping but during the day there was a nice breeze through the cottage. There is a small beach nearby that was very quiet and some days we were the only ones there. Thank you Cesar for sharing your piece of paradise.! We look forward to returning to Seahorse Cottage in the future.

island retreat

A white, austere, villa front, shelters a perfectly planned paradise, upon entering, complete with wide open kitchen and living spaces, book-ended by bedrooms & ensuite bathrooms, all sharing private 360 degree views of the untouched bone fish flats & mangroves. Outdoor spaces include a massive screen porch, adjoining pool & deck resplendent with lawn chairs & kayaks for exploring. Access to a private ocean beach is a minute away. The cottage was perfect for our family, providing a down time base, for exploring all of Providenciales, both day and night. Rhonda & the owners had prepped the villa with everything advertised and our only call, sadly being, to say goodbye. We'll be back soon! Thanks so much Cesar and Caren, for this authentic slice of your island paradise. james mo & gals.

Wonderful

3 of us stayed for the week of 4/9 thru 4/16/16. Once we figured the map out it was easy to get to the cottage. The cottage was basically brand new. The 2 bedrooms are on opposite ends of the house so there was plenty of privacy. It is located on a sound with pristine water to use the paddle boards and kayaks which come with the house. Only problem we had was how to How to work one of the TVs and Cesar came right over to help. Perfect spot to get away from the tourists yet close enough to everything. First time to TCI but not the last!

Loved it!

The welcome. Rhonda met us at the front door with one of those "amazing race" greetings. She walked us around the property and answered all questions. Cesar, the owner, left a welcoming note and a bottle of wine. He stopped by one evening to greet us. He has a cellphone available in the cottage for guest use and one can reach him on speed dial. We had no cause to call him throughout our stay. About the cottage. Technically brand new. It is very clean and well equipped. It has fast WiFI. One of my favorite features was Apple TV. Bring your own iTunes account and one will have access to music and a library of movies. It is also equipped with a volley ball set and paddle/kayaks. If the owner were to add a hammock, I would give the cottage 5+ stars. About the location. Pristine, quiet, undeveloped, away from the other tourists...yet the tourists are about a 10 minute drive away. The property is right on the sound. One can technically walk the whole sound as it is about a foot deep. There is a lovely beach that is walking distance away (driving preferred). We visited at the end of March and there were no bugs to speak off. In terms of wild life, we saw two lizards and a few song birds. Provo. This was our 2nd visit to TCI. We stayed at a grace bay resort the first time. This time around, I liked the flexibility of visiting several beaches and resorts with the flexibility of a car. Sunset beach was our favorite. There are plenty of good restaurants as well -- mango reef, hemingway's, fire and ice, the conch shack, somewhere cafe are our favorites. TCI is the safest Caribbean island; however, do exercise common sense and watch out for those pesky tourists... Big thank you to Cesar and Rhonda for your hospitality!
