Villa Renaissance

Villa Renaissance Unit 204 is an amazing vacation property. The unit was large, clean and beautifully decorated. We had all the conveniences and comforts of home. The unobstructed view from the balcony was breathtaking day or night. We walked directly onto the white sands of Grace Bay Beach. The Villa Renaissance is located on a quieter section of the beach, which is a plus for vacationers like me, who want to relax in a less crowded area. Lounge chairs and umbrellas were available for guests. The property had a pool, hot tub and full bar. The staff was courteous and helpful. The Villa Renaissance property was within walking distance of good restaurants and shopping. Unit 204, fulfilled all of our requirements for a fun filled, relaxing vacation held in beautiful surroundings. See for yourself. Check out these views!

Dates: 10/30/2024 - 11/09/2024 PERFECT LOCATION. Close to many restaurants and shopping. The beach and access was fabulous. We were in Villa 402 - Building Two, 4th floor ‘penthouse’. We just needed a 1 bedroom and that’s what we paid for but they left the 2nd bedroom open for us. The condo was very spacious and clean. There was a half bath, plus the master bath with dual sinks, tub and large steam shower (and the 2nd bedroom had an ensuite as well, with shower and single sink that we didn’t use). The unit had a small, stackable washer/dryer which, face it no one wants to do laundry on vacation, but it is so handy to have. Full, well stocked kitchen. Coffee maker was a drip coffee maker (for those of you needing to know if you what kind of coffee to bring). Fridge had in-door water/ice maker which was great!! Been to some with no ice maker so this was a pleasant surprise. Hair dryer ladies… it was meh. Typical of a hotel. It did the job but took a while. I’m not super picky and usually just pony-tail it anyway but I’ve read some posts where people have asked. If you are particular, then you might want to bring your own. Bed was great, could have used 2 more pillows but otherwise no complaints. Ceiling fans and a floor fan was provided. Ample closet space and while they were a hodge-podge mix, there were lots of hangers in the master, I didn't even think to look in the second bedroom. Ironing board and iron, also provided, but not used. :-) Plenty of towels provided. Plenty of outlets in bedroom, baths and living space. Large balcony, two complaints – first, no loungers, although it did have a small couch and a larger chair with foot stool; second, it wasn’t ‘covered’ – it had a pergola style roof which afforded some shade but if it rained then you couldn’t sit out there, which we LOVE to do. Otherwise, it was great and had expansive views of the ocean. I do wish that more hooks or towel rods were provided in the bathroom - ANY resort at the beach. You come in with wet suits and no where to hang them except along the tub. Same with towels, not enough places to hang them after use. There is no restaurant on site but there is a poolside bar associated with Blu Bar and Grill (about 25 yards from VR) that serve great drinks, the margarita was pretty potent. They did serve some food but got it from Blu – you ordered at the bar and then they got it from Blu. They also did a beach service but honestly, if the lady was at the beach getting or delivering orders then she wasn’t at the bar. Or if she had to go get supplies or food orders from Blu – no one was at the bar. So service was a bit spotty – but the drinks were great!

We had the best visit and highly recommend this amazing property - located in a quiet section of Grace Bay, the villa was perfectly appointed, friendly and helpful staff and within safe and close walking distance of shops and restaurants. The villa has a safe, washer and dryer and full kitchen. Basic cleaning sprays and laundry detergent are supplied. We brought some food with us to cook a few meals and stopped at the grocery on our way in from the airport - worked out great! The beach was beautiful - plenty of chairs and umbrellas. Recommend bringing sling floats to laze the afternoon away. We hope to return soon!
