8 Reasons Why We Love Beaches Turks & Caicos for Babies and Toddlers
If you have young children and are looking for an incredible all-inclusive resort, Beaches Turks & Caicos is one of my top picks! This resort offers something that most all-inclusive resorts don’t - a professionally certified staff that will provide high quality care for your baby or toddler while you relax worry-free. Plus - they offer so many unique experiences and activities.
Below are the top 8 reasons we love taking babies and toddlers to Beaches Turks & Caicos.
#1 - The Beach
Nestled on the stunning Grace Bay, known for its powdery white sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters, the resort is in a tropical paradise! The clear, calm turquoise waters are mesmerizing, and the gentle waves and shallow areas create a safe and enjoyable environment for younger children. Beaches Turks & Caicos also offers unlimited glass bottom boat rides, snorkeling, paddleboarding, Aquatrikes, and more.

#7 Room Options
There are themed villages at this resort and plenty of room options. Many rooms come with a trundle bed and you can also request a crib.
Larger families love the Italian Village suites, which include a separate room with a bunk bed and trundle bed.
#8 Accessibility
Although the resort is large, it is easy to get around. We highly recommend bringing a stroller as there are paved paths throughout. You also won’t want to miss the Choo Choo Train, which takes kids and their families between villages throughout the day. Although the resort may look large, we find it very easy to get around and you can walk from one end of the resort to the other in a few minutes. Check out the Beaches Turks & Caicos map to explore the different areas.
