Pool Party: Turks & Caicos

Beach shack chic is hard to come by in the Caribbean, and while shiny infinity pools and jaw-dropping architecture have their place, there is no better antidote to city life than the effortless pairing of sand, sky, and weathered wood.

Where: Parrot Cay, Turks & Caicos

Why: Here at Parrot Cay, sunsets are best enjoyed on the beach with a bottle of bubbly. But what to do if the sunset runs out before the bubbles do? Oh, the horror! Luckily there is no better place to suffer this injustice than the private plunge pool & back garden of their 1-bedroom beach-house.

Greg Sacks is spending this scorching summer sipping Baby Duck in a kiddie pool in his backyard. It’s pretty much the same as Parrot Cay, right?
