Redefining What All-Inclusive Means

Relax with the Sesame Characters in paradise!
Relax with the Sesame Characters in paradise!

If you’ve ever dreamed of a vacation where everyone in the family can truly relax, even you! Beaches Resorts should definitely be on your radar. Known for their beautiful Caribbean locations and all-inclusive perks, Beaches has been making waves for something even more meaningful: creating a space where families with children on the autism spectrum feel completely supported and at ease during their stay.


?? Staff That Truly “Gets It”At all three Beaches Resorts—Turks & Caicos, Negril,  and Ocho Rios (and more to come!) have a majority of their staff who have completed advanced autism training, this, means they’re ready to welcome your family with understanding, patience, and a whole lot of heart. Parents can finally take a deep breath, knowing their child is in kind, capable hands while catching on much deserved rest and relaxation.


?? Beaches has teamed up with Sesame street in order to create activities with everyone in mind in order to offer sensory-friendly fun, like Amazing Art with Julia (yes, that Julia!). It’s a sweet way for kids to connect, explore, and just be themselves while parents get to soak in the moment stress-free and maybe even have the opportunity to make a friend.


Sensory Guides = Vacation Game-Changer! Not sure how your child might handle a busy buffet or splashy pool area? Beaches provides easy-to-follow sensory guides that rate different spots around the resort based on things like sound, crowd levels, and stimulation. It takes the guesswork out of planning your day and makes everything feel more manageable.


Thoughtful Touches That Go a Long Way, Whether it’s a one-on-one “Beaches Buddy” to hang out with your child or chefs who go the extra mile to meet dietary needs, the personalized care here is next-level. It’s the kind of support that helps families feel confident, safe, and truly taken care of.


 Beaches Resorts isn’t just redefining all-inclusive, it’s re imagining what vacation can feel like for families with autism. Not to mention that they have top of the line all inclusive accommodations. They blend this beautifully with the perfect mix of fun, flexibility,heartfelt support and astounding hospitality.


 Beaches Resorts isn’t just redefining all-inclusive it’s setting the gold standard for autism-friendly vacations. As the leader in this space, Beaches combines sunshine, support, and all the fun you can dream of to create a getaway where everyone feels included, understood, and totally at ease. And the worries? They stay home and take their own little vacation.


Even better beaches is expanding! With more autism-certified resorts on the horizon, even more families will have access to this game-changing, feel-good travel experience.


Are you are ready to plan a vacation where your whole family can relax, connect, and feel completely cared for?  Let’s get your Beaches escape on the calendar because when it comes to inclusive family travel, no one does it better!

Disney World Vacation
We worked with Sara to plan our Disney World vacation. She listened to what we wanted and planned a wonderful Disney vacation keeping our budget in mind. We had the best time! We would definitely work with Sara again.

Excellent Vacation!
Sara gave us lots of options within our budget for our vacation to St Lucia. She answered all our questions in a timely manner and was always just a phone call away. We chose Sandals Halcyon Beach. Of the 3 Sandals resorts on St. Lucia this was the less expensive and smaller resort of the 3. We were a bit hesitant as we read social media reviews and read some of the comments - and now we believe you just can't satisfy some people. We absolutely loved the resort! The grounds were absolutely gorgeous! Many swimming pools to choose from, and the beach was beautiful. Cannot say enough good things about the service - top notch! And of course the drinks and food were delicious! We've been to larger resorts before but we prefer the smaller resort. Takes you only a few minutes to get back to your room if you forget something - and we always felt safe! Highly recommend!

Wonderful sisters trip to Jamaica!
Sara did a wonderful job planning the perfect trip for myself and my two sisters. She found many options for us, after listening to our wants and needs, for our vacation. Sara responded to questions quickly during the planning process and even while we were on the trip (on a Sunday) and had a last minute change, that we needed help with. We would highly recommend Sara as a travel agent.

Costa Rica Honeymoon
We had a great time in Costa Rica. Both of the resorts were excellent and the transportation between the resorts and to and from the airport were very well handled. The restaurant at Los Altos left quite a bit to be desired.
