We're back from our week Sage House and I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay. The house was absolutely beautiful. I firmly believe that Sage House is the best house in the neighborhood. We especially enjoyed the wrap around deck with the spectacular view of the water and the soothing breeze that blows though the windows and doors. We felt right at home.
The information you provided in the "green folder" was extremely helpful. It helped us find all the beaches, the best places to eat and pointed us to toward some very interesting and fun activities. We took a ride on the submarine that permitted us to see the coral without getting wet. We also took a one day cruise to Middle Caicos to see the caves, picnic on a beautiful beach, pick up seashells on seashell island and see the iguanas on iguana island. We ate at a different reasturant every day, all of which had great food.
The highlight of our trip was when we spotted two nurse sharks at the Thompson Cove beach. We got to see them up close and personal. They put on quite a show for us that lasted about 20 minutes. I've attached a picture of one of them as they swam by at about 10 feet from where we were standing.
Words can not express what a great time we had. The people, the weather, the water and the house were perfect. My husband and I both agree that this was one of the best vacations we've had in a very long time. TCI is definitely the best island we've visited.The islanders made us feel as if they were happy to have us there and made us feel welcome. We will definitely go back.
Thank you very much for allowing us the opportunity to rent your house. I hope that we have the opportunity to rent it again in the future.
All the best,
Carol

Three words come to mind when I think of my stay in the beautiful Sage House-- Fresh, Peaceful, Perfect.
With it's high ceilings and wide open rooms that just seem to flow into each other, this house is a space-lover's dream.
A beautiful contradiction, this house is isolated from all people/noises and yet just minutes away from main beaches and the 'downtown' area. Walk to your own private beach or drive to a more lively one-- you can have it all.
It is clean, comfortable, and convenient, and while the pictures are gorgeous...they cannot compare to the reality.
To sum it up....this house is absolutely perfect, a rare gem just waiting to be snatched. |

We spent a week at Sage House recently – it was an amazing stay! The house is impeccably clean and beautifully decorated with all brand new furniture. The spacious and open kitchen was great for cooking great dinners with the designer appliances.
There is a great private guest quarters on the lower level of the house complete with its own bedroom, living room, dining room, kitchen, and bathroom. It is ideal for a group vacationing together or a family that needs extra room. We really enjoyed the 360 degree views of Provo from the deck that wraps around the entire house - especially great for watching the sunsets over the ocean.
The weather in T&C was amazing. The temperature of the ocean was so nice - refreshing but still warm. There are plenty of excellent restaurants close by and a lot of great unique shops on the island.
We will most definitely be back at Sage House for our vacation next year!

| October 2007, Our stay in Sage House was wonderful!! We felt like we were in our home away from home. This home is well maintained with beautiful gardens, views and a secluded location. Yet you are close to everything. The porch is just wonderful for a relaxing meal, reading or resting. We would definitely return as soon as we are able. |

Coming home after being gone for over a week, have been crazy busy unpacking, repacking, mail, etc....so sorry this is a little delayed.....but wanted to let you know how much we loved Saged House! It made us so happy to pull up the driveway every day, knowing we were coming up to the shady, breezy porch with the 360` views, and the tranquil interior with the elegantly simple elements of glass, light, stone, wood. Loved the timeless floor plan, and the vaulted ceilings were key. Such a treat to open all the windows and have the breeze pull through----I'm not a big air cond. person, but did use it at night in the bedrooms. The beds were divine, and we appreciated the quality linens and towels---the beach bags already filled with the beach towels were a treat. Loved the huge master bath, the movie collection, kitchen appliances. Your manager Tetece is great, and so helpful. The yard is lovely, and the gardener and Althea were really sweet too.
Our main activity was diving with Big Blue (super dive operation, owners, employees), almost every day, so we were up and gone by 730am and back in late afternoon. The diving was wonderful, and my youngest daughter (11) was thrilled to be down under with the rest of the family after 2 days of course work there. On many afternoons after a rest, we'd go to the beaches of Grace Bay or Sapodilla---the sand and the water are unlike any other island----exquisite (and we've been to many islands over the years). Had scrumptious meals everywhere, think our favorites were Parallel, at the Palms, and the Tiki at Turtle Cove, Conch Shack, and Angelas Deli.

Hi , I can't believe we have been back for a whole week already! Needless to say we all wish we were back on Provo in your wonderful house. Your house is absolutely wonderful. The decorating, landscaping, porch-- all fantastic. The kitchen, also a treasure, and the master bath with that shower !!
We loved it all, it was completely relaxing and quiet which is what we all needed. We also found Althea, Tecee and the gardener to be very friendly and helpful. We also had a very good diving experience with a small group by the name of Flamingo divers. If you have other renters asking for recommendations I would highly recommend them. Their names are Mickey and Jayne, they provide very personable and safe diving services. Thanks again for providing such a great rental property. I loved your attention to detail and how absolutely everything we needed was there including beach chairs and umbrellas! Hope to make another visit in the near future. Thanks again~

We had a wonderful vacation. The weather was perfect, the beaches amazing and your house ideal. We enjoyed the walk to Thompson Cove and Da Conch Shack almost everyday. Our favorite day trips were Smith's Reef and Malcolm Beach, but tootled around much of the island over the week. We enjoyed our evening meal on your deck, it is so perfect for sitting, reading, visiting and dining. We are wishing we were still there today after returning to real life.
It was a nice treat to have the house cleaned while we were there. I left something for Althea (sp) in the green notebook with her name on it. Will you let her know, please?
Thanks again for all your suggestions and the hospitality provided by the people on the island. We felt well cared for. The Spencers

We stayed here for three weeks in Feb-Mar 2007 and were very pleased with the house and Provo.
The decorating is very tastefully done and the maid keeps the place spotless. The location is near everything you need and just a few blocks off the main road.
There are a lot of beaches within a few minutes of the house by car and with the hilltop location, there was always a nice breeze.
The owner is very helpful and quickly responded to email qustions while we were there.
This was definitely one of the nicest houses we have rented and I highly recommend it. |

Spent a month over the holidays in the Sage house. This is truly a home away from home. The property is in excellent condition, fully equipt(just bring your clothes and a tooth brush)centrally located near beachs, shopping and airport.
The view from the Sage house is spectacular from the huge deck area, the staff is excellent but respects your privacy. The Sage house is situated on a ridge above Thompson's Cove and has a commanding view of the North Shore.
A state of the art alarm system provides security and hi speed wireless internet works well.
I suggest you walk West down the Thompson Cove beach 10 minutes to the newly opened Horse Eyed Bar and enjoy a cocktail, a snack and enjoy the on the beach location.
I highly recommend the Sage house for that special private, luxurious and relaxing getaway.

| Thank you Sage House owners for a wonderful vacation. Your home is beautiful. We enjoyed the snorkeling in the canal, the view from every window, and came home very relaxed. Plan to return next year. |

| We stayed for the month of August and plan to return to Sage House next year. What a wonderful house and island! We miss the view, having morning coffee and evening coctails on the incredible deck, morning walks on Thompson Cove beach, and our daily swims. The house is gorgeous and did not feel like a rental but more like a home. The master bathroom and kitchen are amazing. Our girls stayed in the downstairs apartment and loved having their "own home" complete with kitchen, and indoor and outdoor hanging out area. They also loved the DVD and book library. We enjoyed Thompson Cove, it is undiscovered and quiet and away from the bustle of the high rises on grace bay yet minutes away. We would enjoyed the restuarants and beachs the island has and then escape back to our little private retreat. |
