The Caribbean Island chain of Turks and Caicos off the West Indies is a beautiful and manageable alternative to the busier regional destinations such as Jamaica or Bermuda.

It’s clear great care goes into maintaining the Seven Stars facilities. While it’s a sizable property made up four room classes – Junior Suites, One Bedroom, Two Bedroom and Three Bedroom suites — it’s not unmanageable large. The traveler can navigate the entire resort on foot within 30 minutes while exploring all of the inclusive attractions.
From the vast beach with private cabanas and The Deck Restaurant, to the tennis courts and lawn bowling spread, the guest can lounge under the sun or dig into some activity. When the waters cooperate, the ocean beckons with swimming, body surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding and snorkeling.

During this reporter’s visit, the trade winds were blowing strong and bringing rare rain and high chop to the Seven Stars side of the island. In such cases, the resort can shuttle guests to a beach on the opposite end of Provo where the waters are guaranteed smooth. The same water friendly activities await on either end of the Seven Stars Operation.
A little testy weather offered a chance to try out the spa in the Seven Stars monicker. A full service, holistic facility with multiple treatment rooms, its massage team is capable of everything from deep tissue and sports work to aromatherapy and other treatments.
While it’s fair to say no islands traveler heads to the Caribbean to set in a hotel room, great care went into designing and decorating the suites at Seven Stars. Room classes include three, two and one bedrooms suites with ocean views upon booking request. Suites come with complete kitchens, wifi, satellite TV and all the other comforts of home.
