Family fun at Beaches Turks and Caicos

Sarah Graham on 26 September 2014
Beaches is the award-winning sister company of Sandals aimed at families.

There are currently three Beaches resorts - two in Jamaica and one in Turks and Caicos.

As part of the FAM trip to the Caribbean we got to stay at Sandals in Nassau before taking a small plane over to Providenciales in Turks and Caicos.

The resort is spacious, well laid out and perfect for families.

Spilt into different areas that capture the ambience of the Caribbean, France, Italy and Key West situated on a 12 mile beach with some of the most turquoise sea I have ever seen.

I had a Club suite in the Italian village which was perfect! The main bedroom was spacious, light and airy with a small balcony overlooking the large pool. There was a large bathroom with a huge sunken bath as well as a walk in shower and then a kids room with gorgeous wooden bunk beds and a trundle bed as well as an Xbox.

There are six pools with three swim-up bars, a toddler pool, 19 speciality restaurants, 12 bars, supervised kids camps and a teens-only games room there is certainly more than enough to keep the whole family occupied! I loved the 45,000 square foot pirate’s water park which was amazing! The kids swim-up bar serving smoothies was a great touch.

Beaches is celebrating ten years of 'sunny days' in partnership with Sesame Workshop so there are lots of opportunities to meet and play with favourite characters as well as parades and shows.

Whilst we were there we went to a great BBQ evening with fabulous food and entertainment and also spent an enjoyable evening watching the karaoke in the Cricketer's bar.

I loved the informal dining at Barefoot by the sea which was great for lunch.

Like Sandals, Beaches are Ultra all-inclusive so everything is included - all food, top shelf drinks, entertainment and water sports.

I can honestly say this is one the nicest places I have visited so far and can't wait to go back!

This would be a perfect family destination and I have lots more information I can share, so let me know if you want to know anything else.
