Beautiful White sand
 
Interested in Turks and Caicos with 7 and 10 year olds were thinking FS Nevis but really want white sand beaches and turquoise waters! My husband is concerned about staying in condo vs. resort. Do not want Beaches but he loves spa. Grace Bay requires 2 rms=to pricey. Recomendations please..

You should be able to book spa appointments at Grace Bay (or anywhere) no matter where you're staying. There are a few upscale condo properties on Turks.

The Palms has a great spa. You can rent a one or two bedroom. The Palms is on a great spot on Grace Bay easy walking to other restaurants.

Have been to Provo over 20+ times and love it. Have stayed at Coral Gardens over 15 times. Although most accomodations on Provo are condo type the majority of resorts do have restaurants. Coral Gardens is about the only place on Provo where the reef comes right up to the beach for snorkeling. There is a very nice on site spa and beach bar/restaurant. If you go to www.tciforum and send me a private message Just click on a Howard post, with your e-mail I can put you in touch with someone who has a 2 bedroom condo at CG which is lovely. If you go to the www.coralgardens.com and look at the picture the condo is on the right hand side of the building on the left--second floor. Good source of Provo info is www.wherewhenhow.com the on line amgazine of the Turks and Caicos. If you do a HowardC search here you will find some of my Provo trip reports.

We have been to Provo many times and highly recommend Coral Gardens. It has a beautiful white sand beach that is never crowded, wonderful calm water with a coral reef right offshore, and great all-suite accomodations. Should be perfect with your two children. Also, great spa. We love it.
