The Somerset on Grace Bay

Wonderful resort for all! Went went with 2 adults and a 4 yr old and it was perfect! 3 separate pools, 1 was zero entry and great for kids. Poolside food closes at 6pm, but had a variety of fresh food. Rooms were spacious and very clean, with huge kitchens we hardly used. Great central location on Grace Bay!

Came to the Somerset with my family the last week of August which was the last week prior to them shutting down the season. BIG mistake. The one restaurant was closed all week, they made us order our breakfast via a paper that we had to submit to the front desk each morning, and god forbid you wanted more of something that wasnt an option. My room would have been ok but it was in the front of the hotel and there is no view at all. Be careful with what room you get cause there is a large number of rooms that sit in the front of the hotel with no view of anything. The staff did try their best to accommodate us but it was just hard. I wouldnt come back unless it was peak season and i had a ocean front room.

This was my second trip to Turks and Caicos (spent a week at Seven Stars last year) and I was looking for a smaller boutique resort with the same amenities and beautiful facilities, and Somerset did not disappoint. I stayed in a beautiful, spacious and well appointed 1 bedroom with a loft. My biggest complaint was the long walk to the beach and restaurants/amenities with Seven Stars last year-thus the reason I chose Somerset this year- it is such a great size- wonderful privacy, get just a short jaunt to the beach, spa, pool and restaurants. The staff was extremely courteous and welcoming, with first class service on the beach (even a complimentary gelato each day!). Plenty of activities for all ages at the beach and pool, themed activities at night, and a delicious pool and beach menu. The neighboring hotels are conveniently located for other dining options as well. I was able to drink and dine on property, had a relaxing spa treatment, floated in the ocean, relaxed on the beach (plenty of chairs and umbrellas unlike other resorts), paddle boarded and took a trip in a Hobie Cat! I was able to view a larger 3 bedroom unit before I left so I can plan my next trip to Somerset with the entire family! If you are looking for white sand, clear blue water, a stunning resort and clean/modern accommodations- this is a winner.

Absolutely lovely place! It’s luxurious but at the same time boutiquey (not a big hotel feel), and that is the wonderful thing about it. You get to build a rapport with the staff that makes you feel like you are part of the resort and not just another guest. This is the second time we went and it’s so wonderful to go back and build upon the relationships. From the start Jon Carlos went out of his way to get us access to one room in our apartment even if it was earlier than check in, as we flew in from London and had three children. When we began to ask, he was already arranging it! These little acts make such a huge difference when you’re jet lagged, have been traveling for hours and are with little ones. Next, the kids club! My goodness Ms. Sharon is such a beautiful soul, the children just love her because they feel her love. It’s such a gorgeous thing to witness, my two bigger ones (3&5) have told me all week how they miss her and my five year old said “mummy, I really wish we can see her again”. Which we will if we are lucky. I have to say I was so impressed with the movie night, the details, bags of popcorn, director seats, the big screen, honestly a core memory for sure. At the pool Mr. Big and Nadine, just so sweet! The thing is they really love the children and get to know you personally so it just feels like you are coming to a family member’s house. The resort itself is gorgeous, the apartments are spacious with all high end quality appliances and furniture. With beautiful views especially if you are facing the ocean - that ocean is stunning, the white, wide sand, so much space you never feel like it’s busy even if the resort is full. It’s hard to believe. The pool is also so relaxing if you prefer to not be on the beach. Honestly, we love to travel and try new places but this is one that we just want to return to every year and have our children grow knowing everyone as they become adults.

We stayed in 203. The residence was dated. One of the toilets was not bolted into the floor. It took 2 calls and a day to get someone there to remedy. There were 3 of us, and we got 1 small plastic bottle of shower gel for the week! I asked for more, but never received. No body lotion, no comforts! Towels were at a premium. It got to the point where I laundered our towels to ensure we had enough. For the price I feel they need to up their game. The servers at the beach are slower than slow without real regard for the patrons. The food is sub-par. Not enough lounge chairs/umbrellas at the beach. The views were nice, beach was maintained. Don't think it was worth the money!
