Toddler-Friendly Hotel: Beaches Turks and Caicos

My honest review of Beaches Turks and Caicos (and why it's the type of resort you can go back to again and again.)

I’m not an all-inclusive kind of person. When I think “all-inclusive” I think dayglo parties and rum-spiked drinks in increasingly ridiculous colors. Maybe it’s because I’m not a big drinker, maybe it’s because I’d rather hike than go on a warm-weather vacation, but a big, flagship all-inclusive like Beaches Turks and Caicos was not on my list.

This beach!! One of the best beaches I’ve ever been to.

Reader, I am so glad I got over myself and went with my toddler.

Beaches invited my family down to check out the resort—as a travel journalist, I often have properties willing to host what’s called “FAM trips” or “press stays” for journalists in exchange for coverage in a major publication. I will always disclose whether or not a property hosted me or my family on Travel with Toddlers, and I will always let you know the good AND the bad for any hotel.
