Beaches Turks & Caicos is the biggest Beaches resort with 60 percent more rooms than the others and 16 restaurants. Though each Beaches resort has amazing gourmet offerings, Beaches Turks & Caicos has a culinary journey around the world with an authentic jerk shack, Selerno (Italy) and Tuscan cuisine, Asian flavors, Tex-Mex cooking, seafood fare, sushi, exquisite European delights, British pub food, a pizzeria, a 1950s diner, Mediterranean seafood, and more.

Plus, Beaches Turks & Caicos has 13 bars, including three swim-up bars, butler service in the top-tier suites, and a surf simulator, the only one on Beaches property.

Beaches Negril also offers butler service in the top-tier suites, plus waterskiing, which is not available at any other Beaches resort.

Experience the wonder and beauty of the Land of Water and Wood.

Along with Beaches Negril, Beaches Ocho Rios also includes golf in its all-inclusive amenities (transfers not included). Beaches Ocho Rios, however,  is also near the famous Dunn’s River Falls, the Blue Hole, the Rainforest Bobsled Jamaica at Mystic Mountain, ATV tours, and great beaches.

So it looks like the undisputed winner of our Beach(es) Battle is…whichever resort suits your family’s needs best. Though Beaches Turks & Caicos is the most flashy with flavors and activities for every palate and adventurer, the best resort is the one that you enjoy the most.
