Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Villages & Spa

Currently on the worst trip I have ever taken and cannot wait to get home. From the start, everything has been a hassle. Least attentive hotel staff I’ve ever seen. From check in- bags delayed getting to room, left to figure out where things are on property. Minimal dining options all with limited hours, hour plus waits to get a table for meals. Food is mediocre at best, every order I’ve placed has been incorrect. Bare bones amenities in rooms,(broken appliances) and I’m in a “newly renovated” room. Place is jam packed, impossible to find seats by pools or beach. Kids everywhere and everything that comes with that (diapers everywhere, cannot walk 10 feet without a kid crashing into you, all the screaming.) Property is super run down, amenities are no where near as they are described on website. If there wasn’t a huge snowstorm canceling all flights back to NE for the next few days I’d be on the next flight out. Do not recommend whatsoever.

We arrived at the Airport on Saturday around 3 pm. It took us about 20 minutes to get through customs and to the Beaches checking line. The line was long but we got on the bus within 10 minutes. Check in was easy and fast. Room wasn’t ready but we had full access to the resort. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at our room. It was the lowest room category and it was nice and extremely clean. Mini fridge was restocked everyday. The beach was beautiful and you could walk for miles. The sand was the softest we’ve ever walked on. We had red flags for 5 of the 7 days we were there so didn’t get to participate in many of the water activities. The grounds were very well kept. Maintenance was out everyday trimming trees and cutting grass. They were very polite and considerate of the guests. Our overall experiences at the restaurants were very good with the exception of a couple meals. We felt like we were putting them out when we arrived and during the meal. Our favorite restaurant was Barefoot by the Sea. We had amazing meals and service. A shout out to the best server on property: Basil!! Every bar we went to was good. Our favorite bar was Iguana’s Poolside Bar at the Caribbean Village. Floyd Jr. was the best bartender on property. He was always consistent with the drinks and happy to serve everyone. The best island SMILE serving the best Island Smile. The evening shows were all very good. Our favorite was the new Magic In Me show.

Our family of 15 recently stayed at Beaches Turks & Caicos to celebrate my parents' 50th wedding anniversary, and it was an amazing experience. One of the best things about this resort is the layout—it feels 'big but small' in the best way. It’s large enough to explore, yet intimate enough that you can walk almost anywhere in minutes and constantly run into familiar, friendly faces. The absolute highlight for us was the pickleball program. The eight new courts are top-notch, well-lit (perfect for night play!), and were just a two-minute walk from our rooms. We played every day, sometimes twice! A special note to the management team: O'Ryan and Dialdo are absolute stars and incredible assets to your resort. Not only did they run the daytime program and tournaments with total professionalism, but their hospitality went above and beyond anything we expected. Despite working long hours, they would join us on the courts five out of five nights we were there for a few hours after their shifts ended at 11 PM just to play and socialize. Their friendliness and genuine care for guests are rare. If you are looking for a resort with great walkability and a world-class pickleball experience, this is it. We’re already recommending it to all our friends!

Second visit to this resort! March 2018 and Feb 2026. Still gorgeous as ever, very well kept grounds…those guys are out cleaning long before anyone is up. Rooms - very clean and great about new towels. I’m a shampoo/ conditioner snob and loved the large sized RedLane collection from the Spa line they provided along with body wash, lotion and hard soap! Pools were really nice. People do get up early to snag chairs so get out by 7/7:15, before u get a coffee or breakfast! I couldn’t believe how many slobs and entitled people there are leaving behind towels when the bins are on both side of every pool. Glasses and trash left behind for someone else to pick up. FYI that is not what all inclusive is for! Very windy during our stay ‘red flagged’ for 4 of our 7 days which did minimize chairs by the ocean….but powdery soft beaches were still amazing! Cooler temps than they had seen in years while we were there but still gorgeous and mid 70’s. I would recommend a light jacket for evenings as they were slightly cool when the sun went down and the breeze. Food - decent to good. Reservations needed for the hibachi grill, otherwise dinner started at 5:30. We enjoyed the Sapidillos (sp) and the Arizona pool restaurant (forgot the name) the most. Breakfast buffet by the Iguana pool was always fresh and great - best omelet guy ever is Abdul (pic attached) and best bar was in the Italian village by the lobby…Simone is seriously a unicorn when it comes to professionalism, friendliness and making drinks! One of her counter parts Yesuha and another gentleman also top notch! The Mac & Cheese truck is a must (don’t wait til the last day - you will prob want to go again)! SCUBA diving - was a huge disappointment. The Capt and dive masters were nice but it was over an hour boat ride out with a 25 and 30 min dive. Visibility was great but nothing special for diving. We also go put in a group with brand new divers so they wanted to stay in very close vicinity of the boat. I love the fact they will certify people in the cost of their stay but there definitely needs to be a group for the new divers and another for the advanced. It was a waste of a day (got back to the room at 3:00) and one of 2 yellow flag days we could have enjoyed the ocean more on the resort side. Suggestions - bring your own floats, tips are appreciated, towel holders are a bonus but these pool chair pillows were a dream (won’t travel w/o them again, love the vacuum packing bags! Friday was fun shopping on the resort locals come with their goods (remember it’s their livelihood.

Had a very great time at Beaches and enjoyed most of the restaurants offered here, especially the Cafe de Paris which we got pastries from every morning. There were plenty of activities to do throughout the day and the staff running the activities were very personable and had great energy. Definitely have to give special shoutouts to O’Ryan and Dialdo, who were extremely hospitable and a joy to be around. They were always bright and cheerful every time we ran into them (which ended up being a lot during our five day stay), and really made us feel at home. They definitely elevated an already wonderful experience.
