Sailrock South Caicos, Small Luxury Hotels of the World

10/10 Excellent
"Great place for couples looking for privacy and romance. Jerome at the Cove bar is just excellent! Kiki at the front desk is just super helpful. And Artie, our driver, was just as warm and friendly as he could be. The view from our villa was disappointing. As this is a terrible time of year for the Atlantic Ocean. Tons of seaweed. But have no fear, the other side of the island is a different ocean that is as clear and beautiful as humanly possible. The food is amazing. The staff was excellent. We will be back. In the Spring, when the Atlantic is nicer and the whales are frolicking!"
