With seven pools, a sprawling water park, a shopping center, a spa complex, and more restaurants than you can shake a breadstick at, the family-friendly, 65-acre Beaches is clearly the Turks and Caicos resort with the most features. Many of the rooms -- especially in the old Caribbean Village -- are not top-notch, and the romance factor is virtually non-existent. Still, an all-inclusive resort with this many amenities is enticing and if you want your little ones to be entertained while you head for a rum punch, you'll certainly be taken care of with a Sesame Street Camp and nightly performances, a Martha Stewart Crafts Studio, a massive 45,000-square-foot water park, an Xbox games garage, and even a DJ academy.

This 115-room beachfront resort manages to provide elegant, spacious suites, exceptional service, and a plethora of amenities for rates often much lower than competing properties'. Not only does the hotel have a large pool, free watersports (like sailing and kayaking), and two lighted tennis courts, the excellent kids club includes a large playground and a clubhouse filled with toys, video games, a pool table, and a dress-up closet.
