Don’t get me wrong I knew the boys would just love Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa, but I never anticipated just how much. One thing we learnt during our wonderful stay at Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa is however long you stay; it is just not long enough.
And for kids it really is paradise, but the kind of paradise that is perfect for parents. Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa get it so so right on every level.
Yes, there are kids there, but the resort has an absolutely seamless kids programme, kids and teens are so engaged in exciting and fun activities that you actually have to bribe your own children to spend time with you.

We really do need to go back to experience the full kids offering, but in our whirlwind visit and tour we tried to experience as much as we could and trust me the boys did their very best to get in as much as possible. So here’s what they loved about Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa.
The Beach, we have not done a beach holiday since Joe was born, we have always been off exploring somewhere in a quest to keep the boys busy and occupied. Wow I got this so wrong as it seems all they want to do is spend time on a beach. They loved the warm Caribbean Sea and got so much pleasure running in and out of the waves. At one stage they dragged their loungers into the sea and spent ages laughing as the waves came in and hit them.
Chris and I just watched on in amazement as our boys took such pleasure in something so simple and beautiful. Now I have to say I am more of a pool kind of girl but I can see this pair just love the beach, one day we literally had to drag them off so they could eat.
The kids pools are like no kids pools we have ever seen on a holiday resort, Pirate Island Water Park is just vast. I just wish I had taken a photo of Joe’s face when he saw it for the very first time. There are so many sizes of water slides for all ages, and the most amazing lazy river, that I actually spent some time floating round.
The beauty of the Pirate Island Water Park is that it has lots of surrounding areas for us parents to chill whilst our little angels enjoy all the fun. They even have a huge galleon that hosts Bobby Dee’s a cool 1950’s American Diner and dedicated kids swim up pool bar. It really is such a cool area, Joe was just in his element he felt so grown up hanging out here.
For recreation (and trust me this is another area we had to drag the boys out of) there is a village that consists of an X Box Lounge, Scratch DJ academy and Trench Town. These are all located very near to the pool complex and are perfect for kids to cool off in the hot afternoon sun. Teens and Tween can learn to scratch and mix music, or just enjoy a game of foosball, air hockey, basketball or enjoy some time in playing X Box.
Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa offers just so much for the family from extensive water sports, land-sports, nightly entertainment show I could go on. The wonderful thing is you get a nightly newsletter telling you what is on and where, you could never ever get bored at Beaches Turks & Caicos. And that is why the Christie boys are desperate to return. In fact they have a long list of activities and sports they want to try.
omg Sarah this sounds so fantastic and no wonder the boys want to return. Its funny as last year we took our very first beach holiday with the kids, and they also loved it. It was a much more relaxing holiday for us all, and they seemed to be off doing activities and making new friends each day. It was a totally different holiday than we were all used to. Love that the boys dragged their loungers into the sea. What a great idea x
Thanks Tracey, yes we all had the most wonderful time and we were so much ,ore chilled knowing the boys were loving it too x
This looks seriously amazing, I can imagine my son loving it here too! Oh and me as well of course! The water slides look brilliant as well, I hope you had a go down that big slide! x
Oh of course I did Julia, it really is so incredible we love Beaches Turks and Caicos it is the most wonderful resort x
We’ve never taken a “beach” vacation before, but this seems like the perfect place to take the kids. So much to see and do – and so much to “not do” – ie. resting on the beach! I can see why your boys loved it there, as would mine (and my daughter too!)
Oh yes resting on the beach was just heaven, I cant believe how much the boy loved the beach, its a simple thing but they just adored being there x
Wow, this looks incredible! I’m always reluctant to fly but I know I need to bite the bullet and do it for the kids as they’d love a holiday like this. #twinklytuesday
Kaye, go for it you would love it and my two have flown since they were little and never bat an eyelid they love it x
Wow. Looks fab. So funny a few years ago I would have shuddered at the thought of a place like this and now I’m like, yes please!
#twinklytuesday
Ha ha I know what you mean but trust me it is so tasteful and you almost dont see the kids they are off having so much fun, it is one classy and fun place x
This place really does sound like heaven so I’m not surprised the boys want to go back! I’m not really a beach person but I know my kids would love somewhere like this xxx
Katie, I must say I love the pool but my two just loved the beach, in fact they loved it all and didn’t know where to put themselves, they wanted to fit it all in x
That place really is heaven isn’t it Sarah, fab to see so many different reviews of the place, I wouldn’t have thought it would be so perfect for teens.
Karen it really is the most incredible place and we haven’t even touched the surface yet x
My kids are obsessed with Beaches as well! It is considered their best holiday ever which I find amazing considering we take them to some cool places. We are saving up to take them to Turks & Caicos – the prices are pretty steep! Visiting from #MondayEscapes
Shobhaa we thought that before we went but when you get there you totally get where your money goes, it is incredible x
Mmmm interesting. We visited Beachs Negril (having previously lived in Jamaica, pre-kids, and spent a LOT of weekends at AI’s) when our eldest was one and weren’t massively impressed. HOWEVER I think this had a lot to do with the fact that we had done the adult versions, and also that we weren’t used to having to think about a little one! Now, with a 10 year old and a 7 year old, I would LOVE this. It looks perfect.
Clara we just loved it, even though it is a family resort it does not feel full of kids, and there was so much for the boys to do that it gave them a level of independence they don’t usually get on holiday it was fantastic x
Man, any pool with a waterslide makes for hours of fun…
I know it was so fab, we just need to spend longer there x
I’ve been to Beaches Turks and Caicos without children, but I’m obviously going to reconsider taking my boys!
Ooh they will love it, it is just so much fun, so luxes yet so chilled x
Sarah, Sarah. Enough already! I just want to go now! 🙂 No wonder the boys and yourselves are desperate to get back, I just can’t fail to see how you couldn’t fall in love with the resort. Beaches Turks and Caicos is one to store on my list! Thanks for lining up with #MondayEscapes
Thanks Ting, put it at the top you will just love it and so will Monkey it is kid heaven but somehow manages parent heaven too x
