Family resort in Turks and Caicos

I am searching for a nice family friendly resort in Turks and Caicos, at Grace Bay. We are looking to spend no more than $250-$300/night. We want a hotel or resort with enough for the kids to do, but also relaxing, beautiful scenery and convenient and would rather not rent a car. This would be the first time to TC and we are looking to go late November. Thank you.

i'd say look at royal west indies or the sands. provo is a small island but things (restaurants) are a bit spread out. there really isn't a resort where you won't need to taxi or drive to get most places.

We've stayed at "Ocean Club WEST" 3 years in a row. It's a very convenient location to walk to restaurants,shops, and grocery store. I think that all 3 times we took taxis out to dinner 1 or 2 times each trip.

Ocean Club West or the Sands. You will be able to walk to several restaurants from either of these two, and their swimming pools are more of a hit with the kids. (Yes, I know we don't go to the Caribbean for the pools, but all kids love a good pool!)

That profile picture is sand dollar bar at either Pine Cay or Ft. George in T&C.

I know my beaches! ;-)

msw: how many kids and what ages? After that it's a little easier to make a recomendation in your price range.

LOL. It's supposed to be Ft. George. I can't take credit for the pic though, it was copied and pasted because I loved it so much. It is gorgeous isn't it?
