GRACE BAY & EAST PROVIDENCIALES
Sibonné Beach Hotel
BEACH HOTEL $$
( 946-5547;

;
Grace Bay; r incl breakfast $125-235, apt $350;
) Deservedly popular and occupying a divine stretch of sand on Grace Bay, Sibonné
is a real anti-resort and it gets our vote. With five room categories ranging from comfort-
able to luxurious and a friendly relaxed feel (no officious security guards here) this is a
great place to enjoy the beach in a low-key surrounding.
Point Grace Luxury Resort & Spa
RESORT $$$
( 946-5096;

;
Grace Bay; r $475, ste from $915; ) The
28 rooms and cottages at this very up-market resort right on the beach are all very soph-
isticated and luxurious with freestanding bathtubs and vast four-poster beds. The very best
suites are right on Grace Beach, while the cheaper cottages are clustered around the pool
in blocks of four, and still afford generous privacy and space. The entire place feels far re-
moved from the bustle of the other resorts and this makes it a great place to escape to.
Comfort Suites
SUITES $$
( 946-8888;
www.comfortsuitestci.com
; Grace Bay; r from $105; ) If you're
searching for an affordable resort and are willing to accept that it isn't beachfront (though
not far off!), this is a great option. Clean and spacious rooms stack in three stories above
the pool and chilled poolside bar. Couches in the rooms and chilled-out staff are thrown in.
There are even designated chairs on the beach for guests. Nothing too special, but if you're
here to dive, lie on the beach or not liquidate your finances, this is the place to stay.
Ocean Club West
RESORT $$$
( 946-5880;

;
Grace Bay; r from $289; ) With a
great location in the heart of Grace Bay, the OC is a safe bet. The wonderful pool is com-
plete with an arch-bridge-appointed 'river' and the requisite swim-up bar. Rooms are a bit
cramped, but the kitchenettes and balconies more than make up for it. Guests here are also
able to use the facilities at the nearby Ocean Club, effectively giving you access to two re-
sorts for the price of one.

moth place is a great family option with a kiddy pool, and kitchenettes in every room. The
