Sands at Grace Bay, August 2006 - user review Great location and beach alone doesn't make for a good vacation. If you going here bring tons of cash in American dollars, your own watersports gear (theirs always out or NA), thorough knowledge of Sands Resort's services (staff isn't going to tell you about any), and a willingness to travel by eith... expedia.com

A delivery of bottled water each evening was a nice touch. We needed... expedia.com
Very Nice - user review Overall the hotel was nice. The island itself is very expensive and the service there isn't very good, but that is on the island in general, not just at the hotel.

Best value for the money - user review The Sands at Grace Bay was a wonderful place to stay in Turks and Caicos. Our stretch of beach was unmatched.

If you ... expedia.com
Great location, needs new sheets - user review The Sands has a great location, situated in the middle of Grace Bay beach and is easily accessible to other resorts.

Pleasant stay - user review We had a really pleasant stay at The Sands. The beach is beautiful and quiet and the staff is friendly. We were pretty disappointed with our suite, however.

Would stay here again, but - user review We were pretty disappointed in the Ocean View as the view was pretty far away from the water.

Life is a Beach - the best one around! - user review If you are looking for the best beach, this is it. We stayed from December 2 9,2005 and the beach was all ours.

Casual Nonchalance A Keynote - user review The Sands is a fine resort, but there is a real lack of urgency among the desk staff for solving guests' problems.

Nice stay at Sands at Grace Bay - user review The Sands is a nice resort for families. The beach area is great and the water was usually calm inside the reef.
