Thanks for your perspective but Bohio is closed indefinitely, undergoing refurbishmentsI've been to both Grant Turk (Bohio Resort) and Little Cayman (LCBR) a dozen times or more. My wife and I got married underwater at Grand Turk with a scuba ceremony.
Each place has it's own character.
Little Cayman has some pretty spectacular diving, and Bloody Bay Wall is the most incredible wall I have ever seen. However, I REFUSE to go back to Little Cayman because of Cayman Airways. That is the most miserable excuse for an airline, and I've never had a trip to Little Cayman that wasn't a cluster f%#k because of Cayman Airways. I am DONE with that place.
Bohio on Grand Turk is a really nice, small, relaxed, intimate place for diving. The resort is quite small, I think about 16 rooms. There is no current. The dive sites are 100 yards offshore. You do your surface interval back at the resort. The food is delicious. There is live music at the bar on weekends. When a cruise ship is in town, Bohio does get quite a few beach bathers. Downtown is a bit of a walk through poor neighborhoods, but there isn't much to see anyway. Bohio was heavily damaged in a hurricaine in 2017, and we haven't been back since. Until then, we had been going to Bohio every year.
Another alternative to consider is Providencialis in the Turks & Caicos. The diving there is not as easy, you get a regular hotel and the dive bus picks you up at your hotel. But I was really impressed with the diving there, lots of sharks and current, and I'd love to go back a few more times.
The photos below are before the 2017 hurricane, not sure what the place it like now.
