We've been going to TCI for the last 5 yrs.---may be a bit quiet for teens.
So, if we were to take our grandkids over spring break, where would you stay?
I remember the beach being rocky close to town, so more towards the saand part of Seven Mile Beach.

2-3 bdr condo, budget open---yes, it is the most expensive time over spring break. We're ready for that.

We used to stay at VILLAS OF THE GALLEON next to The Westin many years ago, almost every winter. I have no idea what it's like these days, but it was/is on what I'd call the best part of Seven Mile Beach, and very close to many restaurants and grocery store.

I wanted to add THE AVALON to your list. It's in the middle of Seven Mile Beach, a luxury development very close to restaurants and shopping.

Both look perfect.
Now we need to decide between GC, TCI, or elswhere.......and decide soon. Easter break is filling up & expensive wherever you go.

Renting a condo is a good idea. The south part of Seven Mile Beach is rocky and more congested. The central part has the best beach and is close to some restaurants. The north part is also nice and rents are lower. I usually stay in the north part because of the reasonable price. Properties such as Aqua Bay, Discovery Point Club, Christopher Columbus and Anchorage are great places to stay.

Villas of the Galleon. Have stayed there twice, once with kids. On the best stretch of 7 Mile, and not crowded (unlike the Ritz down the way), And very close to Governor's and Cemetery Reefs. Phenomenal shore snorkeling.
