🌴Beaches TURKS & CAICOS All Inclusive Resort: 14 Tips to Know Before You Go!

[@TheMeleaShow]

HI EVERYONE!!! Anyone hoping to go to Beaches someday?? If I could ever get an extra coupon code or deal, would you guys want me to?? COMMENT & LMK and I will see what I can do!

[@aliciawest6848]

The Melea Show Yes! I'd love an extra coupon code to stack.

[@chelseerose1133]

The Melea Show yes please

[@natassjamccoy9928]

Yes that would be awesome!

[@studiom8058]

The Melea Show I'm going to beaches Turks and Caicos in 2 weeks

[@studiom8058]

The Melea Show I am probably going scuba-diving when I go and just wondering is the water safe

[@billyjr915]

Another thing to add is when you first arrive, make reservations for hibachi or other popular restaurants because they get very busy on Fridays and weekends

[@brat32179]

We just went last June and stayed in the Italian Village. While it does cost more than some other areas, the location was ideal. We were right between the water park (and stores) and the beach, with the largest pool just steps from our room.

[@Coolio_Man]

updates: there's a total of 21 restaurants at beaches turks & caicos now :D

[@dancerchloe1180]

As someone who has been 7 times the Caribbean and Italian village were my personal favorite . Kids club is AMAZING at night you go to a kids nightclub. My favorite restaurant were Neptunes, Arizonas, and one more dinner place by the stage was also amazing. the water park is very good I think for the taller water slides you need to be 46 in I think

[@masonmaceachern1858]

I'm 14 and watching this in my Caribbean room , I find it great and have a great view of everything

[@-livi-7856]

I'm in an Italian room right now, just got back from diving. It is truly awesome here :D

[@masonmaceachern1858]

[@-livi-7856]

No, covid stoped all events

[@turksman12]

Hi Melea. Thank you so much for visiting our beautiful islands. And thank you for posting such an amazing and descriptive video. We love our tourist and please continue to spread the word about our islands and hope you visit us soon again! One love.

[@brookestradley9332]

Caribbean was amazing! The rooms weren't bad at all. We were barely in our room so it did not matter! The location of the Caribbean was literally right next to the beach (closer then the Italian, French, etc) and as you know we could go to any of the pools so it was a really good deal. So I think the Caribbean was amazing and not too run down and if you ever go again you should stay there!

[@donaldfranks8878]

I’ve been to Beaches Turks and Caicos 13 times did you go to Sappadillas or hibachi we always enjoy those restaurants but what I like the most is the friendships with the staff and entertainers which brings our trip to the next level

[@antoninapoplar9777]

I’ve been to both beaches locations is Jamaica and I’m going to their Turks location in 3 days as long as I get a negative COVID test tomorrow!

[@thepro6053]

that's awesome

[@THEWOLFCLAWfr]

Was your trip fun?

[@brentcrampton]

Best video on Beaches I've seen yet. Thanks for not just being another commercial incognito. Those tips were great!

[@anthonyk1581]

I JUST GOT BACK FROM BEACHES AND I STAYED IN A VILLA AT THE KEY WEST VILLAGE LAST WEEK

[@RyanRager44]

Wow amazing review. Best I have ever seen. Nice work

[@TheMeleaShow]

Glad you liked it!

You are a budget travel goddess! Always the best trips with the best money saving tips! 💜

[@Rexple]

I went to Turks and Caicos for a week in April 2018 for my mom’s birthday. We were thinking about going this year again but due to Covid we were not able to. In your video you said that there was not a lot of entertainment when you were there and I don’t know if I was just there at a different time and they’re different things but when I was there they had people like flamethrowers and Family friendly competitions. They also had a talent show that was super cool! Anyways I was just watching videos on this resort because I miss it so much and every time I see it I get an excited feeling.

[@maplecakez]

I've Gone to Beaches Turks & Caicos every year for 8 years in a row. From my experience the restaurants very on what you like, for example the buffet in the Caribbean is better if you don't want to go far from your room. Speaking of food... There is a Really Fancy restaurant in all of the 4 villages, There is one buffet in all 4 villages, There is one grab and go in all 4 villages. Not to mention a couple other styles of food, like "Soy", Soy is an all you can eat, sit down Casual style Sushi restaurant(My favourite). Right next to "Soy" is Kimonos, in Kimonos they will cook your food in front of you while creating a fun and enjoyable show for you (Kimonos is a reservation only restaurant. NO WALK INS). Beaches is one of the few and I mean few places that have an Ice Cream bar that is open almost 24/7, Bobby Dees is open till 4 am every day.. So if you looking for a late night snack that's not really healthy go there. Please and I mean Please don't limit yourself to 1 area of the resort. The Night life of the resort is very well done, There is a Pub in Cricketers that for the family until 11pm, They have 2 pool tables and one Billiards table. If you don't like the Pub then there is always a night club called Club Liquid located just above the lazy river near the teen lounge building, Kids only till 10 pm, then it become and adult only Night club. (if you worried about you kids have non-alcoholic drinks like Daiquiri's while in the club, don't be. They only serve water and pop until 10 pm, then whens its adults only they server wine and beer too.) There is also an adult only pub in the Caribbean called Turtles, Its all day adults only, at night they have a local musician with a comfortable seating. On Wednesday's they have poker night for all you adults who like to have some fun. No betting just for fun, with small prizes for first (water bottle Exeter a). Just one final note before I stop jabbering on is DON'T TAKE THE COTTEN CANDY OUTSIDE, IT SRINKS AND BECOME A CRYSTAL.

[@sarahpettit911]

I've gone to beaches 5 times and I'm going a 6 th time in April, I go to Turks and Caicos and it is amazing I love it and I never get bored of it

[@georgeanaya1791]

The Caribbean is warm. No need for wet suit. Plenty my of great restaurants to eat at. We stayed for 4 day and were not able to sample all the foods we would have liked to. There is more than enough seating in the pool area. Night life could be better, but we managed to keep ourselves entertained until 4 am a few nights.

[@Respect-r6h]

This place is expensive but because there are so many food options and not having to tip and that beautiful beach makes it worth it to me. I went there in 2021 I stayed in the Caribbean village and yea the rooms are outdated but they are descent. I'm going back this year 2023 and i will be staying in the Caribbean village again because its most affordable and the Italian side is the party side, the French side is farthest from the beach and the key west and seaside villages are expensive.

[@michellethomas2454]

I have been to all except Ochos rios I am going may 11 and coming back may 18

[@albertjaques3090]

We go every year. Stayed French and Caribbean both good. The water is far from "cold" as mentioned. Best family resort ever.

[@none6352]

we had a blast there with my 2 little girls about 2 yrs ago

[@frostypigz5200]

I went in 2015, stayed in the Caribbean village, then we went to beaches negril in 2017 and we are going back to Turks in 2019, this time we are staying at the key west village

[@SilentKiller-fx1qj]

We are torn between here and Beaches Negril. Planning on going in October with our 15yr old son and 11yr old daughter.

[@tnromega7222]

Tip sit at the French pool while at the water park

[@Cletotheengineer]

Was there television (cartoons) or Netflix available in the rooms???

[@summerplayz3606]

YASSSSS I go to beaches Turks and Caicos every year for April vacay and we only knew like 1 of these

[@brianb.816]

Really tough to get some basic pricing on this place without filling out all of their booking info. Can anyone “ballpark” a price range for this place for a family of 4?

[@lozt6986]

we stayed in the Caribbean Village a few years ago and it was perfect. unfortunately its a long way to travel from Australia otherwise we would be regular visitors to the resort

[@lilytomhas7592]

I stay in the Caribbean village every year i have gone 7 times I've stayed in the French 2 times I find the rooms are exactly the same! There was no difference at all and the special thing ab the Caribbean village is it's on the beach and they're are the beach is your patio rooms which I found nicer then the French village by all means don't trust those reviews

[@lilytomhas7592]

[@lilytomhas7592]

Also go to the water spot shack and you can rent goggles and life jackets for free I have gone with young siblings and they have always had free life jackets to rent

[@jmrnewstv.9898]

Hello lilie Comment tu vas?

[@sylviamansfeld9751]

Would you recommend the Italien Village or is it to noisy there? We have heard stories about loud music at the pools the whole day and are wondering if it is the right place to stay with toddlers who are going to sleep early and after lunch. The other option would be Key West. Thanks for your comments.

[@devistator69]

Hello Melea! I just wanted to say me and my friends stayed at the Beaches resort (French Village) a few weeks ago for 5 days. It was are first time traveling abroad and your video helped out a great deal! The place was beautiful! Thank you very much!

[@TheMeleaShow]

So glad it helped!

[@ShellyHubbard]

We've been to Atlantis and LOVED it. How does this compare?

[@pinkorganichorse]

Are the sesame street shows boring too?

[@NiqueB2010]

Hi Melea!!! Just wanted to say that I started watching your show last year and watched your review on Atlantis. My family of seven, yes seven, went to Atlantis based on your video and saved a ton of money!!! Thank you Thank You Thank You!!!

[@pinkorganichorse]

I didn't see melea travel on fb. I saw melea show.

[@XIVIXMMXV]

I have never been to any type of all inclusive resort so this video was very helpful!! Hopefully one day we'll get to experience something like this after we get done saving up to start our family! :)

[@kayluv184]

A new subbie here, I just decided that I want to go on a Caribbean vacation. I am so glad that I found you.

I booked our trip there in 2019! We got a good deal for a family of six!

[@liudmila3369]

Latresha Calvin Hi... how much did u pay for the trip. I m going to the agency tomorrow... Wonder how much it will be

[@CASANEUTRAL]

I definitely buy laundry soap and dish soap! Dish soap lasts so long I never have to worry about it running low for a good while! (And I wash dishes all day!)

[@kaitlinnicole8676]

Hey I'm going to Beaches Turks And Caicos over the spring break

[@pinkorganichorse]

What month did you go when the water was cold or was it always cold?

[@cameronjohnson6054]

Why does the advertisements all say $360 pn/pp but when I actually go to select the rooms it jumps up to like $3000 pn/pp? 6 night vacation for 11 grand is nuts.

[@deessto]

How would you compare this resort to the two sandals beaches resorts in Jamaica for toddlers (seven years old and two years old) .. which resort would be best

[@karentaylor9895]

Thank you for this video. We are trying to decide between first time at Beaches Turk/Caicos or returning Atlantis Bahamas. Any suggestions, comparisons or things to think about would be GREAT!! TIA!!

[@pinkorganichorse]

How far is the wall from French village to key west for food? Sounds like we need to learn to swim to get the most out of our stay there. Thank you! If I book for 2021 now and we change our minds, will our deposit be refunded?

[@fatosconhecidosanimalestim7603]

Yes best one place for enjoy everthing good for all .

[@lexxamillion32]

Great video. Going in 2024

[@sloyilegu5381]

We have two children and we are looking into a vacay soon. Thanks a bunch for your video and for being super honest!!!

[@guttanik]

Do they offer daily passes? We are staying at another resort but would be interested to go there for a day.

[@triciacasey246]

My husband and I have been to Sandals Resorts which I think is owned by the same people. What we noticed was the restaurants you had to make a reservation. The better ones, reservations had to be made days in advance. Is Beaches the same?

[@TheMeleaShow]

Kimonos was the only place we had to make a reservation. But we didn't think it was that great! In our opinion, there were better restaurants there that you didn't have to make a reservation for. (I did a video on my family channel that shows Kimonos in it, so you can see what it's like: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKfXfmyDnbB9hqM)

[@bethbrownstein8746]

I'm curious as to why you didn't suggest using a Certified Sandals/Beaches Travel Agent. We know the best room categories and everything about the resort to make it super easy on the traveler.

[@punisher3117]

My family booked this vacation a couple months ago and they just now told me ( going in July ) and I had no idea what it was so this video has me really excited. GREAT VIDEO!

[@MemeMeme-kt8of]

Just went in august 2017. Beautiful island but wasn't too happy about service from Beaches. Paid extra to get off beaches for a few hours and it costed us $150 for 3 hours but very little to no sightseeing. After 4 day at beaches, I was disappointed and bored with just laying out, snorkeling and eating. Compared to traveling to St. Martin, Bahamas, curaçao, Jamaica and St. Kitts, I won't be going back to Turks

[@kcdwash]

Nice tips re the restaurants. We are going in May.

[@ChrisEpler]

Bobby D's was our favorite lunch location. The burgers there were pretty good, they have the ice cream, and if you get a seat at the tables right outside you can let your kids do the slides right there while waiting for the food or in-between bites.

[@YucaTX]

Melea, not sure if you've done a video on this before, but since you've made travel and Costco videos, do you feel Costco has great deals on travel? Preparing my Disney World trip

[@TheMeleaShow]

They can! I always price check around to see who has the best deal. :)

[@samanthaevans7878]

where do you get the best flight deals? what's a good price per person?

[@derperderp9036]

Hello, how cold is the ocean water? Do we need wet suits to just go in off the beach?

[@MainlyDak]

April-August is pretty warm

[@billblais3580]

Thanks! I really like the scuba info. e.g. $80 refresher course and $10 wetsuit rental charge.

[@shadowgenesix6027]

About Scuba Diving if you never took lessons for it can you still do it in a day or less than like 2-3 days ?

[@tnrswag6076]

Tip but cheapest room and if you have Bern there 13 times you g’et upgraded

[@kevinnokleby8431]

I've been to this resort. Seriously amazing!!

[@SimpExterminator]

Is this a good destination for younger adults between the ages of 20-30? I haven't come across anybody talking about if there were nightclubs there or not. Thanks!

[@karmichk773]

Wow, that looks fabulous! L I ve being at the beach! Great video, Melea! ♡♡♡

[@annaguzzo]

i’ve stayed at the caribbean village twice and it is completely fine but a lil small

[@spencermerritt4441]

I have been to beaches Turks and Caicos for 10 straight years and stayed in all the villages and the rooms in key west are the fanciest but the Caribbean village rooms are still great. The rooms are like the worst of the best rooms

[@travelswithvinny]

You are amazing 🎉🎉❤

[@joelandobutterfield5547]

When you go to Beaches Turks&Caicos you need to realize that there is only a handful of locals working on the plantation that I call little Jamaica.When you get here you will come in contact with Jamaicans, Haitians, Dominicans, and Philipino's, Jamaicans making up the majority.

[@Sarah.94d]

I don’t know if I missed it out not but did she have to pay for dinner or was that part of the inclusive deal?

[@keylimekisses]

Do you happen to know when off season is in Turks? My husband and I would love to go but like less crowds also we don't have children is this mostly a resort for families or would couples find it a good deal too?

[@pepper70788]

keylimekisses we went to Sandals Bahamas which is the adults only version of Beaches and looooved it.

[@keylimekisses]

I have seen some interesting things happen at the adults only resorts I am pretty sure since its Beaches owned it's pretty tame right?

[@TheMeleaShow]

Yeah I would maybe go to Sandals if you don't have kids. I would assume it's pretty tame compared. But I've never been to tell you for sure!

[@pepper70788]

Define interesting? It was very very tame. Also we were talking with staff about off season and they said in the Bahamas as long as you aren't going to golf, there isn't a "bad time." If you are going to golf December - February is really really popular.

[@jackgreiner2730]

Yes Please. Trying to go away for the first time with family. Would love to go away with reduced rates.

[@jimandkarishma7626]

I like ur Turks And Caicos vid. Looks like paradise. My wife is in a wheelchair, did u notice any accessibility?

[@That.DJCharlie]

Plenty, not many steps anywhere really, apart from room blocks where there were lifts.

[@jackognibene2387]

2:51 YO HE'S HITTING IT!!!! He's hitting that shit

[@lf9081]

What’s the best month to go to Turks?

[@That.DJCharlie]

I’ve been 9 times now and we are the kind of family who never go Back to the same place. Italian is very busy. French has a large pool and is quiet and central. Caribbean is also nice and has a proper balcony with sports facilities (shuffleboard, basketball etc.) restaurants to go to... Arizona’s, kimonos. Also the food is the same quality throughout the resort (unlike what she said). Also key west which is the butler service and house rooms, they are the only ones which are 20k a week. Normal prices of rooms is around £7-8k per week. The bars have such a cool vibe and the workers are so friendly. Nightly entertainment was mainly for American people and I took no interest in them. No need to bring any cash, anything you buy( something from the gift shop or go on an excursion) is charged to your room. The most friendly workers I have ever seen at a hotel with a typical chilled carribean vibe to them, no one was putting on a fake smile. Everyone wears a badge saying not tips please’. Rating : ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@bugman9787]

The first two times I stayed at Beaches Turks and Caicos I stayed in the Caribbean Village. The main pool there has a couple of waterfalls that I would stand under and get a massage! When I went this past May 2023 I stayed at Key West and had a concierge room and paid less than I did in the Caribbean Village. Key West also has regular rooms besides the large suites and villas. You get a few extra perks with a concierge room. I go there to dive and I bring all my own equipment except tanks and weights. If you dive in the morning you make two dives. You go to one dive site, do your dive then go to another dive site. You have to be at the dive center at 7:45 and sign up at least the day before. The afternoon dive is one dive and you meet at the dive center at 1:40. All dives are guided and safety is their utmost concern! The boats are great! The only restaurant you have to have reservations for is Kamonos, it is the Hibachi style restaurant. There are three that you have to be 16 and older and to hear long pants and a collared shirt and sandals are ok, but no flip flops, no hats. Best and most relaxing vacation I have ever had and I’m booked for May 2024!

I am going to go to Turks and Keyko’s

[@alimakosperc]

When i went to Turks it was amazing all of the facts that she said at true I loved it so much I’m going again I stayed on the Caribbean part which is my favorite I’m staying in the Italian but I loved the Caribbean i loved it so much I’m having trouble trying to get over and going to the Italian when we went to the pool area and sat next to the kids bar and next to the Billy’s restaurant and we just had the kids play because bit is super fun at first they had to get used to the big park but by the end the knew it inside out

[@celelestial6250]

The Caribbean village is awesome. Except for room 304, there was a leak in the roof.

[@pinkorganichorse]

Are all the pools chlorine?

[@johnnaking782]

Enjoy your channel so much! Thanks for sharing!!

[@tayloryeager3563]

Would you apply these rules to the sandals resorts as well? I know they’re partners, but sandals is couples and beaches is family. On the deals, do you think everything is included like you mentioned, like no tipping, food included stuff like that. Also is alcohol included? Random questions, I’m sorry!! We are looking at the Sandals resort in St. Lucia and I just want to get as much information as I can!

[@landyphilmacaribbeanfood5352]

How you guys do it I love ❤️ to travel but can’t afford it . Traveling takes lots of money 💰

[@raeraejasper]

Geez the cheapest I found was $7000 USD for two adults. I would need to win the lottery holy crap. So happy you guys got to enjoy it! Thanks for all the helpful tips!

[@TheMeleaShow]

They will do promotions for upcoming seasons and those rooms that aren't sold out are typically discounted. But I would suggest checking A LOT of dates. Just yesterday, I found rooms for 2 Adults and 2 Kids for $5400 and that was for 7 nights. So I know the great prices are there. You might just need to do some searching and be flexible with dates. (Your pricing sounds WAY high and probably just popular dates)

[@itsfradzy]

what village is the jerk shack located

[@alexakiernan2256]

I stayed in the Caribbean village twice and thought it was pretty nice

[@estheranderle5274]

thank so much this helped a lot because my family is going!

[@bugman9787]

The water is 80 to 85 degrees, even at 100 feet. I dive with trunks and a rash guard and was not even close to being cold! It amazes me that people wear wet suits!

Flights: which is typically more expensive to get to, Turks and Caicos or Jamaica??

Not sure. We found a killer deal to Turks for $440 RT from Utah. And typically, flights to Turks and Jamaica from my city are around $800
