Turks & Caicos Hotel
 
We are planning to go diving over the fourth of July with our two adult "children". We are considering Point Grace, The Regent Palms, and Grace Bay. Do you have any suggestions??? We will be staying 5 nights. Thanks in advance.

The Grace Bay club Hotel was nice. I didn't dive there (just snorkeled) but it's beach is gorgeous.

Regent Palms. Or even better..look into the Somerset.

Agree with Kristen, The Somerset www.thesomerset.com They are offering 1 free night...

Have stayed at The Somerset many times.
Love the layout of the property with The Estate Homes anchoring the beach and infinity pool leading to the Sterling Building the fronts the long lap pool that centers the property...and do not forget the lovely English Cottages from one to three bedrooms in front of the croquet lawn and borders the lovely O'Soleil and Pearl Lounge.
Beautifull full service property offfering many class accomodations in many price ranges.
My second choice would be Regent Palms or Point Grace.
Just love the island!

I would still look at The Somerset...I do not care for the West Bay Club location. At the Somerset you can walk to many dining options, etc Somerset is a step up as well!!

With adult children, another vote for the Somerset. Gorgeous luxury property-and it attracts other Adult children to meet and hang out with.

You may also want to look into Gansevoort, another popular one with adult children.

Both have live music on Fridays, Gansevoort has live music and outdoor TV screen, so adult children are "happy".

I would select Grace Bay Club. We stayed there in December and were really happy there. We left the Gansevoort after having a reservation as we didn't like the looks of it--too much of a scene.

Somerset looks nice but a bit crowded.

I think you probably can't go wrong with any of those hotels, but we stayed at the Regent Palms and it was amazing. I can't wait to go back! We went in July 2 years ago and it was not crowded at all. We could walk out to the pool or beach in the middle of the day and easily get a chair.

We also stayed at the Regent Palms, last year in February and i thought it was wonderful. You can click on my screen name for my trip report. It was truly 5 star.
