Hotel La Vista Azul

We booked our trip to T+C super last minute (merely 2 weeks prior), and it was the new years holiday, so the ever popular stretch of resorts on Grace Bay were fully booked. (The affordable ones, at least!) We stayed at Hotel La Vista Azul in an area called Turtle Cove in The Bight Settlement. We absolutely loved discovering this area of the island, slightly off the beaten tourist path and yet very nice/safe/walkable. 

The tranquil grounds at La Vista Azul host well-maintained fountains and hot pink flora. We booked a 1 bedroom suite which was technically a one bedroom studio since there was no door separating the bed from the main living area, just a hallway. Our suite had laundry, a full kitchen, and daily housekeeping. The crown jewel was our sprawling kid friendly high-walled patio. A perfect space for us to chill and them to play. In all my photographs I managed to miss a shot of the dueling rooftop pools - one cold, one heated!  Local restaurants and the gorgeous Bight Beach are accessible via paved sidewalks. We had our stroller so, walking to the beach was an easy win! 

So our last minute booking didn't plop us directly in the sands of Grace Bay; but we could drive there in seven minutes! I was uniquely content staying at this serene property in fun-to-explore Turtle Cove. If the double rainbow that greeted us minutes upon arrival was any indication, it is where we were meant to be!

The tropical setting behind us is so gorgeous it looks fake! I loved our mom/son time at the posh Pink Bar. [Bob and Ryder stayed to play on the beach]

 Cheers to a week in T+C to kick off 2023! We are excited to play on the shores of and explore this tropical archipelago.
