Turks and Caicos Hotel Recommendation needed
 
'm planning on going to Turks and Caicos for Valentines Day weekend. Has anyone been there during this time of the year and knows what the weather and ocean temperature are like. Also, I am looking for a hotel recommendation.

I am looking for something a little off the beaten path that is quaint, close to or on the beach, a smaller property or one that isn't completely filled with people all the time, romantic, etc.

Thanks in advance for the recommendations!

Point Grace or Turks and Caicos Club.

Google Villa Renaissance webcam, live shot to see the weather every day.

Overall, MOST of the time it's a dry flat island. You will come back tan. You may need light summer sweaters for the evening.

You're going to love it. Very soft sand and water pretty warm and clear when I was there is November (came back tan after 2 days only). Bring bug spray -- the mosquitos come out at night but do seem to lay off if you apply bug spray!

we went to Provo last feb and had amazing 80s and sunny weather and the water was warm and beautiful. we stayed at the regent Palms, which is not what you are looking for, but it was amazing.

I can vouch for Point Grace recommendation. Stayed there for my 25th wedding anniversary last October....a great little resort, geared toward adults (you won't find many (if any) kids here)....romance is definitely in the air at PG! Honestly though, you can't go wrong ANYWHERE you stay in T&C :)
