Beaches Friends Forever
Girls Getaway
Did you say Girl's Getaway? As Macaroni KID Publishers, we (Veronica Leon and Emily Papa) were recently invited to Beaches Resorts Turks & Caicos, to experience Beaches Friends Forever Girls Getaway, and we are excited to share with you what we experienced during our time there!
Thanks to Beaches BFF Girls Getaway for hosting Macaroni KID publishers on our amazing 2022 trip.
We very much appreciate how thoughtful, kind, and gracious our hosts were during our stay!
Beaches Resorts Turks & Caicos, an all-inclusive luxury resort, features a 45,000 square-foot Pirates Island water park, 5 pools, gourmet dining at 21 restaurants, 12 bars serving premium spirits, and luxury five-star Red Lane® Spa. Accommodations include four magnificent villages uniquely designed to reflect the architecture and ambiance of Italy, France, the Caribbean and Key West, featuring lavish rooms and suites accommodating couples to large families. What steals the show at Beaches Turks & Caicos is the 12-mile white sand beach of Grace Bay surrounded by clear turquoise waters. If this hasn’t convinced you to add Beaches Resorts Turks & Caicos to your next vacation list, check out 12 Reasons to Visit Beaches Resorts Turks & Caicos.
We enjoyed the ultimate friends vacation with activities that included sunrise yoga, self-discovery sessions, beach cocktails and adventures throughout. The perfect amount of relaxation, bonding time and opportunities for us to try something new.

During Baubles & Bubbles we gathered over cocktails with Project Runway Designer Amanda Perna to create one-of-a-kind tassel earrings with our BFF.

At Beads & Besties Happy Hour we created friendship bracelets that were tied with intention by Visionary Artist, Jewelry Designer, and Author, Tia Crystal.
From sailing a catamaran with Island Routes, enjoying world-class entertainment, indulging in a champagne soirée and making endless friendships, we made great memories for years to come.
One of the ways Beaches BFF pampers you and your bestie is by providing you both with gifts and swag throughout your entire stay; including a $200 credit to the Red Lane® Spa, Island Routes Caribbean Excursion, Sanitas Skincare Kit and 5x7 professional photo.

Sail with Island Routes
Our catamaran ride with Island Routes, the world's leading Caribbean Attraction Company, was one for the books with lots of laughter, dancing on the boat, stopping to take photos in front of Drake’s house, and even spotting a dolphin swimming next to us! Sailing across the turquoise water in Turks & Caicos needs to be on everyone’s bucket list!
Heaven on Earth Massage
With our Red Lane® Spa Credit, we took advantage of the Tropical Paradise Massage, a 90-minute couples (besties) massage on the beach with gorgeous natural surroundings and the gentle sounds of the ocean, transforming us as one with the Caribbean. We loved the genuine signature treatments, laid back sophistication, oceanfront serenity with a wellness experience giving us the mind and body time to receive the benefits of our massages.
Beaches BFF: The Ultimate Girl's Getaway Weekend
As MacKID besties who have worked and supported each other from across the US, we have deepened our connection with each other every time we have the opportunity to travel together.
When we were invited to attend Beaches sold-out Friends Forever “BFF” Getaway at Beaches Turks & Caicos, we were really looking forward to a relaxing and rejuvenating long weekend connecting our friendship from Pittsburgh to Scottsdale via Turks and Caicos.

What we DIDN’T expect was to meet so many other kind and beautiful women that we would instantly hit it off with.

Enjoying authentic British cuisine and cocktails at the Cricketers Pub on our first night with our new besties we met on the shuttle ride to Beaches Resort.
It’s crazy how you can meet someone on an island over 1,000 miles away from where you live, but they can make you feel at home, like you’ve been friends forever. Within hours, you’re talking, laughing, and bonding like friends who are meeting up for an afternoon lunch. When the trip is over, you’ve exchanged contact information and already have a zoom date scheduled.
While we think it’s almost impossible to attend Beaches Friends Forever Girls Getaway and NOT find that, we hit the jackpot with the women that became our instant BFF’s before we even got off the shuttle from the airport.
