Searching for serenity on a beautiful Caribbean beach where the landscape beckons you to lie back and let go? Book a non-stop flight from Charlotte to Providenciales in Turks and Caicos and in less than three hours you’ll be lounging on one of the world’s most welcoming destinations surrounded by stunning stretches of sand: Grace Bay.
This staggering seven-mile powdery-white shore is the heart and soul of Providenciales, or “Provo” as the locals call it, the most developed of the eight inhabited islands in Turks and Caicos. Grace Bay is immaculate with its crystal-clear turquoise water going knee-deep for miles. Locals take pride in keeping the beaches and the sidewalks clean.

If luxury can come in the form of lagoons, pristine pools and beaches, then it is no wonder that Mayakoba — a private resort along the Riviera Maya on the eastern coast of Mexico — attracts visitors looking to indulge in comfort and lounge in leisure. The gated community just north of Playa del Carmen on the Caribbean Sea consists of private residences, four distinct hotels and El Camaleón — an award-winning, Greg Norman-designed golf course that has hosted numerous LIV Golf and PGA Tour events, including the PGA’s first tournament in Latin America.
Plan to visit Mayakoba if you’re prepared to stay put on the cushy campus. Unlike Cancun, the overhyped spring-break destination about an hour north, a visit to Mayakoba isn’t about sightseeing, cave tours or crazy nightlife. Instead, be prepared to pamper yourself in paradise during the day and turn in early for a restful sleep at night.
Thanks for stopping by!
