handicap at Beaches Turks & Caicos?
my father is contained to a motorized scooter, and my cousin is getting married in Turks & Caicos, at the Beaches Resort… Does anybody have any reviews of this resort, and if it is handicap accessible and easy to get around.
Yes, he will have Absolutely no problem in Beaches Turks and Caicos. Everything is so spacious there, they have ramps wherever there is stairs, and large elevators. He would have no problem what so ever, the resort is very large, and they could easily accommodate him. The staff at Beaches Turks and Caicos are so great, and they go out of there way to assist you in any way possible. I went to there this April, and had a most wonderful time!
**The only problem I can see for him, is that Providenciales Airport (the only airport on the island of Providenciales, Turks and Caicos(where beaches it) does not have jetways, and you have to walk down the stairs of the aircraft into the airport. For that issue, I am sure you can contact your airline, and make special arrangements.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at p_kyle@ymail.com.

Beaches should be easy to get about on a motorized scooter if your father is accommodated on the ground floor (they call it first floor). Is your father allowed to import his scooter? I have never come across such an arrangement before, but perhaps I haven’t been looking hard enough. Scooters are rented out on the Island. Here is a website about the resort. http://www.beaches.com/main/tc/tc-home.cfm
