Frommer's "This small, pleasant guesthouse feels as if it's from another era, with a pitched timbered ceiling and wood paneling; the only thing missing is the ticking of a grandfather clock." Full review
Fodor's "North Caicos islanders Susan and Clifford Gardiner built this small, palmetto-fringed hotel in the 1980s on the quiet, mostly deserted Whitby Beach." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Enclosed by a picket fence, the intimate and adults-only beachfront Pelican Beach Hotel, without telephones and TVs, but with excellent room service, is a calming retreat."
Lonely Planet "For those looking for a relaxed, back-to-basics place to stay, this is an excellent option." Full review
Frommer's "A 16-room seaside guesthouse that has an old-fashioned 1950s feel, with walls of knotted pine and curtains blowing in the breezes. Rooms are clean but basic, with white tile floors and ceiling fans." Full review

"Located at the center of Grace Bay, the 114-room Sands at Grace Bay offers solid, if not spectacular, amenities." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This four-star, all-suite hotel gleams with granite and marble. Choose from studios with kitchenettes, or one-two- and three-bedroom suites."
Star Service "Ten kilometers from town and 11 from the airport, between Point Grace and Sibonne, this well-run, mostly suite property has a solid reputation." Full review

Turndown service arrives nightly, but management often ignores special requests unless asked multiple times.
Frommer's "Suites are handsomely furnished in beachy pastels and floor-to-ceiling windows, with a screened balcony or porch, fully equipped kitchen, and bathroom with travertine tile floor." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
