My husband and I booked a week stay at the Seagate after reading the many positive reviews online. We were hoping for a quite place to stay and relax on the beach. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed. We were notified 1 day before our vacation started that the owners would be out of the country for our stay. We arrived to find that the Seagate looks nothing like the photos online. The residence is outdated and dirty. The rooms are small and cramped with no views of the water. The room surfaces were filthy and I was physically covered with dirt when starting to unpack. Lights were not working, the bathroom made an odd ringing sound intermittently. The kitchen cabinets are faux and the covers come off when opening the cabinets. The appliances are dirty and outdated. Floors and walls are stained. We were extremely fortunate that we were able to book another room at very nice hotel within a few hours (occupancy is low currently due to the US recession) and did not spend even one night here. The owners are now stating they want to keep 2 nights deposit. In addition, they charged our credit card TWICE for the length of our stay. We are concerned that we have been taken advantage of and would like to warn others.

Nice place, but I wish the owners had mentioned the big construction project right next door. Every morning we awoke to dump trucks and jack hammers, and it went on all day long, even on the weekends. It looks like there is another big project coming soon on the other side... make sure you ask before booking.

The Windsong project is very close to completion, the Seagate is no longer affected by any construction noise.

Last February, for our first time to Turks and Caicos, we stayed at The Seagate for seven days and had the most wonderful week of snorkeling, relaxing at the private pool and the beach. The atmosphere at The Seagate is great and our host, Eva and Rahul, were so friendly and accomodating. They were always there to help and advise on restaurants and shopping. Our condo was perfect and had a wonderful view of the ocean and each evening the fantastic sunsets. It was also so easy to get to know the other guests staying at The Seagate because the layout facilitates those possiblities. In fact, one evening we all had a cook out by the pool. The Seagate is also reasonably close to restaurants and shopping.
We were so impressed and pleased with our first visit, we are going back again for three weeks in Jan and Feb. 07.

My wife and I stayed at the Seagate for the second time in April 2006, and we absolutely loved it. For those of you looking for a low-key, well-priced, beautiful place in a great location on the island, this is it. The Seagate is basically a "villa" type complex with 4-5 units I believe, and a beautiful courtyard/garden area and pool. It is walking distance to one of the best stretches of Grace Bay Beach and one of the best in-shore snorkeling reefs on the whole island. We saw sea turtles on the grass flats every day, and the reef and tropical fish are breathtaking. The owners of Seagate are great hosts, very helpful and accomodating, and are a great resource of local knowledge, i.e., - car rental, good restaurants, stuff off the "beaten path". The Seagate is a short drive to the Turtle Cove marina area, and to the main "strip" of Grace Bay where most of the restaurants and shops are, which is nice, yet the Seagate is located on is quite quiet and doesn't get a lot of traffic.
I would definitely recommend the Seagate for those traveling to Providenciales who are not looking for the big resort experience.

This was our second trip to Provo, we loved it so much in July 0f 05 that we came back with friends. Found the Seagate online, Eva and Rahul were wonderful from our first contact. Very helpful with info on the Seagate and the island. Also helped us with car rental and recommendations on tours. Our condo was very clean and comfortable with plenty of room for two couples. Just a short walk to the beach, which was mostly our own private area, most people stayed up around Beaches. Ate breakfast every morning on our balcony with a limited beach view, which was ok, since it made things more private. Loved it and hope to go back again soon.
