"From the Happiest People in the World” Guest: JOHN & SHARON (Long Island, NY)
We wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for allowing us to stay in "La Dolce Villa". We had the absolute best trip of our lives. We have traveled to many beach vacation islands, but Turks and Caicos, and specifically the Somerset, offered an exclusive paradise not found in many other places. It gave us the ability to escape our 5 children for a few moments in time. Our children ranging from 9 down to the twins 18 months really missed Mommy and Daddy. While we missed them, your home in paradise gave us the exact rest and recharge that we needed to get back to reality (unfortunately) and the hustle and bustle of our everyday lives. Our words can't and don't express our gratitude enough. I also wanted to let you know that the Staff of the Somerset were unbelievable. Warren made sure to touch base with me to make sure all was well and that we had everything we needed. Colin, at the beach, was on top of every possible need from towels to drinks. There is absolutely nothing that could have been improved on. We as well as the other couple we were with, could not stop talking about the next time we could make it down to the Somerset. Thank you from the happiest people in the world!
5/5 “Simply the Best”. Guest: RON & MARIE (Long Island, New York)
Ron and I are still "glowing" from the most wonderful vacation we ever had. Things change a little after 28 years of marriage, but our time in Turks totally brings us back to the feeling of our honeymoon! We cannot thank you enough for your generosity. Your condo is simply a slice of paradise! We enjoyed every single minute of it! The natural beauty of Turks, staff at Somerset, food at local restaurants, romance, relaxation and so much fun in the sun (and out of the sun)!!! So wonderful!!!
5/5 “Perfect in every way”. Guest: MMC4761 (Washington D.C.)
I cannot say enough good things about this resort. I agree with many reviews about Turks & Caicos that "ideal" is subjective because everyone has a different expectation from a Caribbean vacation. My ideal vacation would be the opposite of some place like Beaches or any other similar large resort. I wanted privacy, high end accommodations, and excellent customer service. The Somerset is all that and more. The staff provides, hands down, the most professional, generous, and genuinely personable customer service I have ever encountered anywhere on any vacation. Our room in the Stirling House was beyond anything we ever expected. It was huge (around 2300 square feet, I believe) with Viking appliances, porcelain dishes, comfortable beds, ample dresser space, and spectacular views. The unit was immaculate and housekeeping always consisted of 2-3 people, so daily service was efficient and non-intrusive. We had some travel mishaps on the way (delayed flights, missed connections, lost luggage) and when we pulled in at 10:30 at night, the front desk staff was waiting for us, ready to park our car, get us food (even though the kitchen had closed at 9:00) and get us settled in. They even waited at the airport the next day to find our luggage for us so that we could spend precious vacation time on the beach. The pool and beach attendants were helpful, friendly, and genuinely personable. There were no resort cards to carry around. The entire staff knew that my family was staying there. It was the kind of rapport that was casual and intimate, yet with high end accommodations and professionalism in every regard. I checked out a number of resorts on Grace Bay (Regent, Grace Bay Club, and Seven Stars) and The Somerset was exactly the right choice. We're going back to Provo next year and there's no place else I'd want to stay.
5/5 A SPECIAL PLACE. Guest: STUART (NYC)
Turks and Caicos is a nice place .the beaches are pretty... The restaurants serve good food. The hotels are all clean. The Somerset is a wonderful property.... They will treat you like family. What made our stay in Turks and Caicos special was this condo and the people who own it. They are special.... You will feel at home the minute you walk in. You will have lots of choices when considering where to stay.... Trust me... I spent a lot of time in this condo/ apt .... It's special.
5/5 Outstanding Condo - Great Overall Vacation!!!!!! Guest: Gary (Dallas, TX)
This condo at The Somerset was a great choice. My wife, son and I were very comfortable for the week. The grocery store was close by and we stopped by on the way from the airport. The kitchen was great and we made breakfast and lunch most days in the room. We ate out for dinner every night, and there are some really good restaurants to choose from. The view from the condo itself was perfect. You have a great view of the ocean as well as the pool area. I would recommend this condo at The Somerset to anyone - it was also a great price and value for anywhere that you would stay that is comparable. We would definitely come back and stay here again.
5/5 Great Family Vacation Guest: Eleen (Atlanta, Georgia)
Just want to say thank you for the great time we had at the Somerset. It was a perfect condo overlooking the pool and beach. My husband and daughter had a fun time. The staff was great and we would definitely like to do it again next year. Thank you for giving us a great rate for a 5 star resort. Had I booked through the Somerset directly, we would have paid almost triple the price. Thanks again.
5/5 Wow! Guest: Patrick (Ontario, Canada)
My wife and I wanted to visit the Turks for the first time. We requested information from many of the Owners on this website. The Owner's assistant responded immediately. She answered all our questions and offered us the best rate for this beautiful 5 Star ocean view suite. When we arrived at the airport, there was a greeter from the Somerset who met us and assisted us with our baggage and a taxi. From the time we arrived at the Somerset to the time we departed we received the best service we had ever had at a resort. The staff were wonderful and could not do enough to make sure we enjoyed every moment of our stay. The villa was exactly as the pictures and the pool and beach were paradise. We were concerned that we did not rent a car, but we quickly found out that we really didn't need one. There were so many restaurants just walking distance off the beach. We enjoyed many complimentary non-motorized water sports and just less than a mile away we found shopping, open air markets for souvenirs and a grocery store. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we booked another vacation week in the summer.
5/5 What a fabulous place ! Guest: John (Henrico, VA )
Well. we made it home, but really did not want to leave. What a fabulous place and the entire island experience was great. We ate at several great restaurants all right along the beach near the Somerset. Also went bonefishing out of Silver Deep and a buddy and I drove out to Bonefish Point twice and had some luck there. Your place was really fantastic -- better than advertised and well above our expectations. By the way, the unit was spotless, everything worked great and we found everything we could want or need. Found the nearby grocery store and, again, just had a wonderful vacation. The view from the balcony was exactly as you described it and the unit itself was perfect. We found everything we ever needed and had a great week. You also have a jewel in your Assistant. She gave us great advice and answered every question we could throw at her. We've been to a lot of different places, but Turks and Caicos tops themall. Thanks again for letting us use your place. It really is special and we hope you will let us rent it again sometime.
5/5 Amazing Guest: Adam James (Manhattan, NY)
The unit was gorgeous and the view from the balcony was something I wish I could wake up to every morning. We took a quick trip to the supermarket and even made a couple meals in the Villa because it was just too nice to go out every night. The nights we did go out were equally special. Tons of restaurants within walking distance on the beach, beachside BBQs, and lobster galore. The islanders were the friendliest I have ever dealt with and were always willing to go the extra mile. We walked out one night to catch a taxi to the Casino but Winston (an employee of the Somerset) just told us to hop in his car and he gave us a lift. The on-the-beach drink and food service was very convenient because we never wanted to leave the white sands and crystal clear water. We can't wait to go down there again. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience top grade luxury in an island paradise. La vida es dulce en la Dolce Villa.
5/5 Guest: Stephen (Manhattan, NY)
We had a great time we either sailed, kayaked, or snorkeled everyday. We might be booking it again the same time next year. Thanks for your help,
5/5 Incredible vacation Guest: Janet (New York)
My husband and I had a wonderful time at the Somerset. The suite had all the comforts of home. The living room balcony had the view of the beautiful swiming pool and beach. The staff was very nice and could not do enough for us. We certainly will go back again next year.
