Sibonné Beach Hotel
Two rooms sit steps from Grace Bay's white sand and reef
Grace Bay Beach runs along the northeast coast of Providenciales, and Sibonné Beach Hotel sits directly on it, with the sand beginning just past the pool deck. The barrier reef lies offshore, close enough that snorkellers can cross from beach to coral without a boat. It is a small hotel, built around a garden courtyard, and every room is only steps from the water. Courtyard rooms open onto individual patios shaded by the garden; balcony rooms sit on the second floor, most with king beds, looking out over greenery to the sea. Two premier rooms stand right at the shoreline, the closest on this stretch of coast to the sand itself, each with its own terrace and lounge chairs. A single beachfront apartment offers a full kitchen and a screened porch for guests staying longer. All rooms carry air conditioning, a mini-fridge, coffee maker and free WiFi as standard. There is no elevator, so upper rooms mean stairs. Bay Bistro, the on-site restaurant, sits at the water's edge, its dining room, patio and beach seating all facing the turquoise water of Grace Bay. Bicycles are available to rent on site. Beach loungers and umbrellas are reserved for hotel guests, and the pool sits just behind the dune line, a short walk from the restaurant and the courtyard rooms.
