A 45,000 square-foot waterpark; three magnificent Villages, boasting the architecture and ambiance of Italy, France and the Caribbean; a 12-mile beach lapped by clear turquoise waters; endless fun activities for everyone, from tots to tweens and teens, featuring Sesame Street® characters, Scratch DJ Academy, the new Xbox 360® Play Lounge and a sizzlin' teen disco, Liquid at Beaches - all located on one of the world's best beaches. The resort’s seamless blend of European charm and Caribbean flair provides guests with every luxury imaginable; the Italian Village features luxury family suites - a magnificent collection of suites with separate kids rooms designed to meet the needs of today’s families. It’s a slice of paradise you can feel at home in - with privacy and tranquility in a layout which just makes sense. You may even request one of the Italian Village’s 18 “Imperial” rooms, which include separate living and dining room areas and feature Beaches Resorts’ exclusive Butler Service.

The new Italian Village’s private checkin area ensures a stress-free start to a Luxury Included® vacation, while gourmet restaurants (16 total, from Italian at Mario’s to Barefoot by the Sea with local seafood delights), and their awe inspiring range of amenities and attractions, keep travelers of all ages well fed, engaged and enchanted.

“Beaches Resorts is expressly designed for the way today’s families live and travel,” said Adam Stewart, CEO of Beaches Resorts. “Getting away to get together is precious time. It’s got to be right,” Stewart added. “From toddlers to teens, parents to grandparents, there was not a single detail in our blueprints that did not take each traveler’s needs into account.”

So does it take everyone into account? It does that, and so much more. Beaches Turks & Caicos exceeds expectations in absolutely every way. It’s also home to a massive 7,000-sq. ft. retail mecca, featuring a luxury boutique shop, resort and dive shop, art gallery, photoshop and candy store. We mentioned the Xbox 360® Play Lounge. Well, If gaming isn’t their thing, teens can chill out at Trench Town, the hottest, teen-only resort lounge in the Caribbean complete with laser hockey, foosball and more. When it comes time to hit the beach, teens and tweens can explore the high seas aboard Beaches Resorts’ exclusive catamaran, The Kitty Katt.

Look out for Zoe, Super Grover, Big Bird and the whole Sesame Street® gang; they even have great hands-on activities like ‘Baking with Cookie Monster’ and ‘Story Time with Elmo’ as a part of the Beaches Caribbean Adventure with Sesame Street®. Seen enough? We have. Our bags were packed before we even heard about the exclusive Red Lane® Spa, where classic European spa rituals are infused with the truly distinct essence of the Caribbean.

Enough activities to keep the family happy? Check. Wait, seriously, something for EVERY age range? Yes, you heard us. AND there’s Camp Sesame to keep the kids occupied so you can relax and soak up the good life. Beaches Turks & Caicos is a must visit for the ultimate Caribbean family vacation escape.
