The Verdict
Let's just say it: COMO Parrot Cay is pricey. Expect to pay $4000-$6000+ before taxes per night for a Beach House for a couple (or small family of three) and $6000-$7000+ before taxes per night for a Two Bedroom Beach House for four, to say nothing of the rates of the private residences. This is a private island for guests who have more money than time, for whom flying to the Maldives, with the time and time changes that entails, is a non-starter, while Turks & Caicos is a mere 3.5 hour flight from NYC.
But with that out of the way, if you're among those lucky enough to experience it, COMO Parrot Cay offers privacy, beauty, and elevated service, cuisine, and spa treatments. Now, several villas around Turks and Caicos offer a great deal of privacy, but location matters. Many guests would like to be on a wide stretch of beach such as Grace Bay, but Grace Bay means sharing the beach with plenty of other travelers and locals (beaches in Turks and Caicos, as in Hawaii and some other places, are public). Parrot Cay, as a private island with only a few rooms, suites, beach houses and residences, means that it's not hard to find yourself walking on the beach with no one else around: your own private beach.
Service is also a huge differentiator for Parrot Cay. The international team includes not only locals, but long-time COMO staff from Bali, Bhutan, and elsewhere in Asia. That longevity of service and experience at other COMO properties means that service is more responsive and anticipatory than at other peer Caribbean resorts. This is seen not only with butler service but also spa treatments: my massage was simply superb.
Cuisine is also at a higher level, from homemade rather than commercial yogurts at breakfast, to specialty Asian dishes such as Soto Ayam, Papaya Salad, and Pad Thai, to authentic Italian pizza thrown by a Neapolitan pizza chef and baked in a pizza oven.
