Beaches Turks and Caicos: Great resort for kids and parents!

We recently traveled to Beaches Turks and Caicos (Feb 2016) and had an amazing time. The small touches when we first arrived (rum punch and cold towels) started off our vacation to a great start. We stayed in the French Village which was great for us as it was a little quieter for our 2 year old daughter. Yvonne who cleaned our room was wonderful she was very accommodating to us and cleaning our room before our daughter had her afternoon nap. At the start of the trip it took our daughter a littl [... read more]e time to settle into the routine and was not eating very much. The Chef at ??? came out and offered to make us anything that she might like. It was a wonderful touch and very appreciative. The room was fine a little aged but was good for what we needed during our stay. Only recommendation is upgrading the mattresses they were not very comfortable. We enjoyed all the different food options on the resort our go to was the buffet in the French Village. Tash the supervisor was wonderful she was very attentive which was great. We also used the Sesame Club a couple of times and the care they gave our daughter overall was very good. We never worried about the care she was given while we were away. Another nice touch so that we couple go out to dinner. The pools were good sometimes too crowded or not enough seats available. We found the French village pool the best option for us. (Butler reserved or other people saving seats was an issue at other pools). The sesame themed breakfast and entertainment was amazing, it was great and entertaining for our daughter. She absolutely loved the characters. Overall we had a wonderful trip, the staff, food, pools and activities made the trip that much better than we could have hoped for. Thank you for helping us make great memories.

Beaches Negril Resort and Spa: Fantastic Resort

Where do I start. March 1st to the 11th.This was our 1st time to this resort and it was truly remarkable. The staff The food The pools slides and lazy river. We cant say 1 negative thing. We were always treated like royalty by the staff.. We ate at all the restaurants. Fantastic!!! The kids really enjoyed the slides and the lazy river basketball mini golf and the beach of course. Honestly we never had time to check out the kids clubs. By the time we were done playing in the pools then dinner and [... read more] off to the sesame street entertainment. Shelly is fantastic in what she does with the program. Our room was 424 over looking the lazy river splash park and play structure. remarkable view. Room was kept very clean all the time. fridge was always full and the sculptures on the beds at night. our kids just loved them. We do travel every year mexico, cuba and Jamaica This was the best so far .My kids are 7 and 11. Well guess were we are going next year. Thanks Carol at Trip Central and a big Thanks to Beaches Negril Staff.

Beaches Negril Resort and Spa: Amazing family vacation

This was our second time to beaches negril, we came back because we really love it. The beach is amazing, all the kids activities during the days, evening Elmo shows were perfect for our toddler. We especially enjoyed the staff at the resort, they all knew our daughter by day 3 and were very good to us.

Beaches Negril Resort and Spa: Poor safety and dishonest practises.

I believe most parents will agree that the top priority of any trip is to ensure the safety and timely travel to the destination for our children. For this reason the travel providers have failed us on this trip so I will not travel with Westjet, Westjet Travel, and Beaches. Before leaving my wife emailed and called Westjet Travel and Beaches to confirm a car seat for our toddler. When we arrived there was no car seat for a 1.5 hour car race to Nigrel with my baby in my arms. On the ride back t [... read more]o the airport I asked twice for a car seat back to the airport and the folks at Beaches managed to provide a seat only to tell me that I needed to install it in their vehicle as they did not want to take on any insurance claims. When attaching the seat the main anchoring strap was missing so I had to brace the chair the 1.5 hours to the airport so once again no use. We get to the airport only to have Westjet tell us that there is a three hour delay to our flight due to weather in Toronto. The weather in Toronto was sunny and 4 degrees. Nothing wrong with the weather in Toronto. Speaking to the agent at Westjet, I questioned what type of weather issues is causing this delay and he tells me that Westjet just had a later flight planned about a month ago. I purchased my flight only a couple weeks ago so Westjet Travels sold tickets knowing they would not fly at 4:30 and would consolidate to a later flight at 7:30pm. My ticket purchase was with the understanding that I would pay more to get my toddler in at a normal hour. I decided to leave names out as I will provide that to the Ministry of Transportation when I make a formal complaint. I will not go back to Beaches and will not fly Westjet if this is how they want to conduct business.

Beaches Turks and Caicos: top notch all inclusive resort

this is a really big resort. I suggest if you book to look a the pictures and read the reviews. I was in the French villa which seemed old compared to the Italian villa with more modern look to it. In the descriptions, they also love to add the word "honeymoon" which does NOT mean anything. I went there for a honeymoon and they gave us a double bed room which is pretty ironic for a HONEYMOON suite.

Beaches Negril Resort and Spa: Absolutely incredible

This was our first family trip and it was truly a dream vacation. Shelley at Tripcentral made sure every detail was covered. The staff at the Beaches Negril resort made our trip perfect in every way. We have a special needs child and I didn't have to worry about anything for him. It was the perfect ending to a very long year. My heartfelt thanks to Shelley at Tripcentral for arranging the dream vacation for us. The resort was incredible and every staff member truly cared about your wellbeing.

Beaches Turks and Caicos: Perfect family vacation!

We had very high hopes for Beaches T&C given the price, and it delivered. The beach was gorgeous, the food varied and delicious, and so many activities for everyone. Caribbean section was good value!!

Beaches Ocho Rios: Resort was wonderfull

Booked this resort for a family vacation; there were 11 of us and we all had a great time. The resort was great in all aspects. The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to make the kids vacation great. No complaints at all.

Beaches Turks and Caicos: nice quiet resort

grounds were well kept, rooms were well cleaned, food was good although cold most of the time, this resort had no shopping I had to go to two other resorts to shop. The swimming pools (3) were small and were nothing like the pools at the other resorts in the same complex. We were put in an area which was very noisy with carts going by all day. We expected a sitting room and only got the bedroom and a small sofa to sit on. We would not stay here again.

Beaches Turks and Caicos: Awesome trip!!!

This was our second trip to Beaches Turks and Caicos and it was magical! We love the wonderful staff, they were always so helpful, kind and happy to help in any way possible. We stayed at the Italian the first trip and Key West this trip and both were amazing! I had forgotten how beautiful the sand and water was, it doesn't seem possible that it could be as perfect as it was. The food was great and they accommodated to my picky 7 year old! We can't wait to go back again!

Beaches Turks and Caicos: Excellent resort.

This resort is amazing in many aspects and i will try to cover the good and bad. *** Beach *** Amazing. One of the best i've seen. No algaes, very little waves, lots of sand area, clear blue color and clean. The problem is they need more umbrellas. *** Restaurants *** The food is great no matter which restaurants you go to and we tried almost all of them. I ate everything possible and never got sick. The best are Sapodillas and Sky but they are adults only. The Japonese was fun and a great way t [... read more]o meet people. Marios had the best buffet. Jerks had awesome chicken and fish done on bbq. Note that they have lots of sea food available in almost all restaurants. Note: They have a wide range of alcohol, however wine is limited to their house wine (2 red and 2 whites all not good). You can however buy a bottle a the restaurants if you like (~50 to 150) and the list was pretty good. The Turks beer was good (go for lager not light). There's also no lineups or wait time at restaurants. *** Rooms *** Rooms is where i lowered my score but i'll explain why. We originally booked at the Carrabean and the room was very disapointing. For the price you pay they shouldn't even offer such rooms. Noisy A/C and fridge, dark and full of bugs. We had to change. We looked at the Italian area and for a family is perfect. All rooms are the same setup (bonk beds, king and a sofa/bed) and look much more recent. The Key West is the top. It's also the most expensive and furthest but worth while. They still had mosquitoes in them. I must have killed 12 of them overall and still got bitten 15 times. *** Activities *** We didn't do much of them. Actually, there's really nothing for adults, it's all geared toward children and they seem to like them. I think the resort has a deal with Seasame Street cause you see the characters all week long. They have a kids area that looks fun for them. *** Shows *** Shows are bad. Don't bother with them. The only good one was the kid's talent show where they bring kids from the resort and they show their talent. That was fun. The rest are below average compared to other regular resort shows. *** Service *** Service is great. Everytime we've asked for something we got it. It's not super fast but they manage to get back to you and do the best they can to accomodate. *** Safety *** No problems there. Gated hotel and if you leave the grounds you have to sign out with the guard. Not much to do outside the resort though unless you rent a vehicule to go around. *** WiFi *** Horrible. It's an open wifi so anyone can connect without password. Problem is that it's super slow so don't bother at all with it. I found that the best time was before 7am and after 11pm. In between, forget it, you'll just get frustrated. They do have business centre but i didn't look into it so i don't if it's free or you have to pay. *** General Tricks/Advice *** - Bring bugs spray - You can ask for take out if you don't feel like eating out. They give you a decent size box. - If you're low on water, get it at the gym. It's much colder then the ones at the bar. - Tips are frown upon in that resort so be disgreet if you;re going to do it but i haven't seen anyone tip at all and the service will not change either whether you do it or not. - Don't go Carrabean village, pay the extra to stay either at Italian or KeyWest. - Relax and have fun :)

Beaches Ocho Rios: Fabulous resort

Room was execellent and very central. Loved the service and the pool. Great fun for all the family. Lots of choice with meals.The Creperie was everyone's favourite. The week was too short but we all got to relax.

Beaches Turks and Caicos: Best resort we have been to

There are so many tripadvisor reviews there is nothing more I can say, other than to add my vote: this resort is the best we have been to. It cost about 40% more and was 20% better than the next best in our experience. But that may be worth it in that all irritants are removed - no line ups or waiting for dinner, no limits to where you can go on the resort, quick transport from the airport, no long walk to the beach, no shortage of chairs or shade, and so on. We will likely go back - I don't thi [... read more]nk we can return to other resorts now that we've been to Beaches.

Beaches Negril Resort and Spa: Good resort but not worth the extra money

The beach is great and the resort is focused on children which is great for families. The resort also has many nice extras like free watersports (including scuba diving, water skiing and banana boats), free spa spending (that no one tells you about) and beach/pool towels available without cards. However, the food, the room and the entertainment are not any better than other 4 and 5 resorts that are much cheaper. The a la cart restaurant are actually worse than other resorts. The service and the  [... read more]staff friendliness are not the greatest. I have seen better in Jamaica.

Beaches Negril Resort and Spa: Family loved it!

It was a great vacation. My husband and two children (3 and 5) had a fantastic time and did not want to leave. The kids club is great. I felt safe leaving the kids there with the certified nannies and they had a great time. My husband and I therefore and a few lunches to ourselves which was nice. The people who worked there were very nice and great with the kids. It was a relaxed atmosphere with kids having fun around you. The beach is nice. I did not use the pools, although my kids and husband  [... read more]did. The kids loved the shows. For an all-inclusive, the food was good. It was a great place to go if you have kids. I would not chose to go there if I did not have kids with me though as I thought it was really geared towards them. We go on vacation two or three times a year and my husband said it was one of his best vacations.

Beaches Turks and Caicos: Wonderful experience for young and old alike!

All areas of the resort were excellent, including the beach, restaurants, pools, play areas, kids' camp and public areas. When we booked, we were very specific about the kind of rooms we needed, and were reassured this is what we would get. The rooms were not right, and Beaches only corrected this from Day 4 on.

Beaches Turks and Caicos: SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!!

AMAZING!!! grounds, staff, room, restaurants were all perfect. It was a quiet season but the entertainment staff still made the efforts to keep us entertained, great group of people. There isn't anything negative that i would say about my stay in Turks.

Beaches Negril Resort and Spa: Good time for families

First, the people of Negril are fantastic. So nice and accommodating! The room was great and clean. The pools were ok, not much to write home about. The restaurant on the beach and the Venetian restaurant were fantastic and the grill by the pool with the water slides had amazing fries and jerk chicken!! But the best part, the absolute BEST, part was the beach. Miles and miles of the softest sand and the most incredible water. I'd go back just for that!!
