1 Night's lodging HELP PLEASE
 
My wife and I are going to Grand Turks the end of February Sat.-Sat.
I thought it might be nice to go to Provo on Friday and return the following Saturday. Any suggestions as to where we may be able to get in for 2 one night stays? Would like to be on Grace Bay if possible.
Thanks!!!

Do you have a budget?
Is this just for sleep between flights to Grand Turk, or do you want to explore Provo a little?
Where are you staying in Grand Turk?

Hi Blamona,
I was hoping you would help!
Budget is not really an issue.
We hope to get in early enough and leave late enough for a little exploration.
Friends of ours have hopefully (waiting for confirmation) arranged for rooms at the Osprey Beach Hotel...Do you know it?
Any tips on fishing (bonefish)?

Located right in the centre of the Grace Bay hotel and resort area is a hotel called Comfort Suites, it's in the Ports of Call shopping plaza located across the street from Grace Bay Beach. The hotel has everything you'd need for a one night stay, close to restaurants and shopping but not at beachfront resort prices.

I have stayed at Osprey Hotel, I really like it. Very charming, and the owner Jenny is super.

Bonefishing is best around Ambergris Cay, you may find someone who takes you out, if not you could hop over to South Caicos (10 minute flight) and someone from there can take you. Bonefishing is best on the flats, so either Ambergris Cay or South Caicos.

I would stay beachfront on Grace Bay. The Sands Resort is always popular in the mid-range. I really like Windsong and West Bay Club, 2 new resorts close to off the beach snorkeling.

My upscale favorite is The Somerset.

Really there is not a bad place to stay. Since your time in Provo is limited, I would definately get a car rental to maximize your time. Other than Grace Bay, you may want want to check out Chalk Sound, where the color of the water is amazing.
