KINGSTON, Jamaica – Beaches Resorts has announced a near US$1-billion expansion that will see the construction of three new properties across three Caribbean islands and major development of its award-winning Turks and Caicos resort.
This was revealed by Adam Stewart, the executive chairman of Beaches Resorts, at the company’s Made of Caribbean global launch held in New York City recently.
The new Beaches Resorts will be constructed in Barbados, on Exuma in The Bahamas; and Runaway Bay Jamaica.
“As a family from the Caribbean we have a deep love for our islands, and it’s incredibly gratifying to draw inspiration from our guests,” Stewart said.
“Our growth strategy is rooted in meeting their wants, with the importance of family time being at the core of our brand’s DNA. We know that now, more than ever, families are prioritising connection and seeking enriching, multi-generational vacations. We are committed to not only meeting this demand but going above and beyond to wow them with new product offerings and provide unforgettable shared experiences,” he said.
Stewart also gave a sneak peek of the new Treasure Beach Village scheduled for Beaches Turks and Caicos.
Beaches Resorts was founded in 1997 with properties in Jamaica and Turks and Caicos as the family-friendly evolution of Sandals Resorts.
Beaches Negril and Beaches Turks and Caicos introduced a premium, all-inclusive experience tailored specifically for families.
Since then, Beaches has established itself as the premier vacation for travellers of all ages with signature inclusions such as Caribbean Adventures with Sesame Street, Kids Camps, epic waterparks and its groundbreaking Autism Programme certified by the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards.
In late 2025 ground will be broken for Beaches Barbados which will join existing sister properties Sandals Barbados and Sandals Royal Barbados.
The new resort will offer 600 rooms.
“Designed in ‘Bajan style,’ a grand and luxurious take on Caribbean Georgian style, the resort’s standout will include a dedicated ‘Main Street’ — a winding resort centre featuring dining and shopping opportunities, as well as high-energy family zones from outdoor performance stages to a modern sports bar and arcade,” Beaches said in a news release.
The company also revealed that the planned Beaches Exuma in The Bahamas will be sited on 500 acres.
It will be the brand’s first property in The Bahamas.
