Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa

6 of us (4 adults, 2 children) stayed in a multi level butler villa in Key West village the week leading up to July 4th. Driver picked us up at the airport and all went well on the short drive to the resort. Check in was a bit behind, so we had to wait a while to get into our room. We were introduced to our two butlers for the week, Shamar and Donahue. They kindly walked us down to Neptune’s to grab a bit of lunch while we waited. Food was solid and the view even better. We were finally able to check in and get settled, though a bit slow (one of the only “negatives” for the week, if you can call it that), and we spent the first evening hanging out at the quiet pool in Key West village. Great spot to wind down the day as it was very quiet and quite shaded. We then hit Mario’s for dinner. Typical buffet style food, nothing great, but dinner was quick and we got to see a bit more of the resort first evening. Donohue got us set up at French Village pool the rest of the week. Great location in proximity to the water park for our daughter and not so busy that we had any problems. This was a great place to hang out every day and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff at the swim up bar there was absolutely amazing and my daughter had a great time every day trying different frozen drinks. We tried food from just about everywhere for lunch/snacks while at the pool. The Mac and Cheese truck and the Neopolitan pizza were both excellent, but neither compared to Donohue’s suggestion to mix jerk chicken from the jerk truck with pasta from the nearby restaurant. It was excellent! Both Donohue and Shamar made sure we had coffee and pastries to the room first thing in the morning, and while there was a bit of an issue first morning with timing (not related to their service - let me be clear, they absolutely crushed it all week for us), it was spot on every morning. They also went out of their way to get us snacks, pastries, cookies etc to the room for a late afternoon pick me up. We thoroughly enjoyed Soy, Kimono’s and Butch’s in the evening. We were fortunate enough to catch some blackfin tuna on a fishing trip and Donohue went out of his way to get us setup at Soy for sushi with the fish we caught. Our sushi chef (I hate I can’t remember her name) absolutely crushed dinner for us. It was truly the highlight of the trip. Kimono’s was a great time and the staff there actually got our family in an hour earlier than our reservations, as the kiddos were definitely exhausted from a long day. We wrapped up our last dinner at Butch’s - definitely saved the best for last. The new section of the resort is gorgeous and Butch’s was fantastic. Shamar kindly shuttled us over and back and made sure we were setup with everything we needed. The wait staff here was best on property! They were awesome!! Neptune’s for breakfast was excellent - I would highly recommend the steak and eggs. The cleaning staff assigned to our rooms were the friendliest! Theresa and Theresa kept our place tip-top and they were a pleasure to chat with daily. Now for the negatives: Slow check-in Arizona’s (Food was not good….) Some of the wait staff seemed cranky and service at restaurants was very slow at times/impossible to get refills (Mario’s, Arizona’s and Neptune’s last morning we were there, staff was different from previous days) Would 10/10 come back and if/when we do, will be requesting the same butler staff as they were both amazing. They seriously care about their families they work with and were a pleasure to be around. Great trip and it was nice to disconnect for a week.

9 people, 3 rooms, multi-generational. Stayed in French Village for 5 nights. Overall, we had a great time. We were here 2 years ago, and there are many improvements. - grounds are expansive, varied and gorgeous. Every nook and cranny is Instagrammable. Workers always improving it, trimming and making it perfect. - new Treasure Beach area is so pretty, definitely swing by. - our French Village rooms were on the 3rd floor. being the top floor we got the very high ceilings which added a lot to our stay. These rooms have been refreshed but still have the blue tile designs in the sinks areas. Both sink areas include a swing-out mirror (non magnifiying). Also our room had a very nice iron and ironing board. Fridge was stocked with bottled water and sodas. There is also a microwave and coffee pot. - we had no problems getting pool towels or beach chairs. - our family did the complimentary sailboating, snorkeling and glass-bottom boat tour that Beaches runs. - we enjoyed our food pretty much everywhere. Since it's all-inclusive, menus don't have a ton of choices. The largest menu was at Butch's. - new steakhouse Butch's is a hot reservation and very difficult to get. As soon as you arrive at Beaches, head over to the Culinary Concierge in the Carribean Beach Village, where you make your reservations in person. We got one for the last night of our stay, for 10:00pm! But we swung by Butch's around 8:30pm instead; they had (many) empty tables and sat us right away. - the other new restaurant in Treasure Beach is Papaya. It's a sit-down restaurant. We did not have good service here, with dishes missing, coming out at different times, it's very confusing. Plus the server orders from each Cuisine (Spanish, Italian, Asian, Caribbean) for the whole table in order rather than taking each person's order.

This resort is huge! We stayed in the original resort. There are five total. Our room was dated and needed some work. The food was great. There are 21 places to eat so there is something for everyone. We utilized the spa which was amazing! I would go back again but book a room in the newer part of the resort.

We had a great time, the food, atmosphere and staff were amazing. We had a late dinner at Butch chop house which was delicious. One of the bartenders at Butch went above and beyond to get a chocolate banana drink for my daughter from another place. That made her happy and probably spoiled her a little.😀 Thanks so much! We also loved the crystal clear water to snorkle in. Really enjoyed the show about the history and culture of Turks and Caicos, we learned so much.

Our family loves Beaches Turks and Caicos! We love the beach, the rooms, the entertainment, and the pools! We love to play volleyball at the Iguana Pool, and Damien was awesome to play with! All the entertainment people are amazing with their games and activities! Paul was our favorite bartender at the Italian pool bar- such a cool guy! We also love all the nighttime entertainment! We look forward to watching the shows each night, and Martin is the most fun to watch perform. NaeNae (however you spell it) was wonderful with our daughter at the Kids Talent Show! The Fire Show and Family Pool Dinner were our absolute favorite events! It was awesome to have everyone jump in the water and party. We also enjoyed all the restaurants- especially Butches, Pinta, and Mario’s. Our server at Mario’s, Desroy, was a joy to talk to on our last night. We had the best trip! This was our second visit, and we can’t wait to come back someday!
