Point Grace is very nice and has really large 3 bedroom condos (2,600 sq feet). There is not much night life on Provo, though. Also, if you need more space, Point Grace has three villas they rent, all descriptions on their website at www.pointgrace.tc

Provo is the only island that will be close to what you want out of your vacation. I spent a couple weeks on Middle Caicos two years ago and there was not even a restaurant or grocery store there and there are no "resorts". North Caicos has a little more development, but is still very, very subdued and there are no resorts even close to a Ritz Carlton. Even Provo does not have a Ritz Carlton or other similar properties. Beaches is the all-inclusive resort on Provo, but it is not at the level of a Ritz Carlton. I am wondering if the Turks and Caicos is the wrong destination for you and your children.

Altho there is no Ritz in the TCI, there are several high end resorts, Parrot Cay and Meridian Club, both a short boat or plane away from Provo. The Grace Bay Club gets rave reviews as well and winds up on the many top lists but it is on Provo which is growing by leaps and bounds. I do believe that Meridian Club limits children by age during season and the off-Provo location would definintely eliminate the choice to go dancing and clubbing.
