Fodor's Expert Review Sands at Grace Bay

Spacious gardens and winding pools set the tone for one of Provo's most family-friendly resorts, a 6-acre beachfront spread with helpful service and excellent amenities that include a spa, a good-size fitness room, water sports, tennis, basketball, and on-site dining. Sparkling ocean views from huge screened-in patios and floor-to-ceiling windows are best in the oceanfront suites in Blocks 3 and 4, which are closest to the beach. Two free-form swimming pools meander through the center of the resort, and the third is oceanfront, taking in water views and refreshing breezes. Beach toys are available for the kids, including swim noodles and buckets with shovels.
