Stayed at the Alexandra Resort for 6 nights...great place. My daughter and I had a Deluxe Studio Oceanview room in the main building where check-in takes place. The room was great, although a little small. The room had a small kitchen with small fridge/microwave/toaster/coffee pot. Very nice to have this available since dining out can be very expensive. Stopping by the local IGA to pick up basic food items/coffee helped keep the costs down. View was fantastic, overlooking the pool/garden area and a nice oceanview. The balcony is a decent size with a small table and chairs and a lounge chair. The staff was very nice and accomodating. The onsite dining was OK...not many vegetarian options. I'm sure if I ate seafood/meat, I would have offered a better rating on the dining option. I would highly recommend The Alexandra Resort to anyone who visits the Turks and Caicos. Very reasonably priced and a great location.

A great place to visit. The beaches are all they say you will not be disapointed. Food mostly local caught fish was very fresh and quite good. The boat trip from hotel includes snorkling and conch catching which will become part of your lunch was a real treat, worth the cost. Staff OK but not a strong customer satisfaction attitude, its just business. Would recommend and would go again. Have been to more than 30 Islands and many Mexican resorts in the way of background. Not inexpensive but remember all imports, not local grown or raised.

Great Location. Nice property. Quality of furnishings differ among buildings. Bldg 2 Ocean Front-upscale furnishings.Bldg. 3 ocean/garden view furnishings not as upscale. Restuarant is average-ok for breakfast/lunch but excellent restaurants are within walking distance up the beautiful beach. No/limited beachside food/drink service. Excursion Co. located beachside. Expansion construction non-intrusive.

This was my first trip to the Turks and Caicos Island and it was my honeymoon as well. My husband and I went during hurricane season so everything was pretty low-key and personal. The weather was great, with a few overcast days, but for such extreme heat (90-100) that made it comfortable.
We stayed at the Alexandra Resort which was undergoing some construction, the construction noise was extremely minimal, and there was only one day that we heard it from our hotel room. The room was really clean and spacious; the only thing I have to complain about is the bed which was rock hard. The staff was really friendly as were the people that were staying there as well. The location was excellent! Grace Bay beach was beautiful and since it was low season there were barely anybody on the beach. The pool was really pretty it's definitely a nice break if you want a day away from the salty water and it has a swim-up bar. We went snorkeling and parasailing, it was so much fun and cheap! We were even snorkeling along the beach and saw a stingray and went sand dollar diving.
The cheaper places to eat were a Calico Jack's, Pizza Pizza, Tiki Hut and Angela's Deli, the bill totaled to be under $* for the both of us. The Orchid had a Caribbean Cookout night on Monday night that was $* per person and it was an all-you-can-eat. We didn't have enough time to eat other places. For breakfast we just went to the Graceway IGA supermartket and bought soda, snacky foods, and cereal to save some money. Most of the activities were charge by credit cards, so you really didn't need to bring a whole lot of cash. We paid for all of our food in cash though and that was roughly $* for 8 days/7 nights.
It's definitely a smart move to rent a car from Grace Bay Car Rentals instead of Hertz, Avis, or Budget it is far cheaper.
We will mostly like go back in another couple years or so!
