When you check in at one of two Ocean Club Resorts (not all-inclusive) in Providenciales, you'll enter a paradise of turquoise waters and deep 8-inch white sand. Ditch those sandals and get ready for some barefoot walking or uber sandcastle building! The hotel provides families with cribs, pack `n' plays, high chairs, strollers and baby monitors. And if you need some beach toys, just ask at the front desk. Younger kids will love discovering the word's only conch farm (a 10-minute drive from the resort),

riding a glass-bottom catamaran or going on a tour of nearby Little Water Cay island to look for iguanas. Upon arrival, kids will get a game kit to identify indigenous plants and animals. Called Seafari, the property-wide scavenger hunt rewards young explorers with daily prizes and teaches them about the surrounding ecosystem. See if your kids can spot hummingbirds and hermit crabs! There's no kids' club, but adventurous families can try special day tours like horseback riding, jet skiing and kayaking. If you want to escape the kids for a bit, babysitting services are available for an extra fee. Want to save some money? The grocery store is walking distance from Ocean Club West, and you can ride the complimentary shuttle between the resorts. But if you do plan on eating the hotel food, kids' menus are available at Cabana Bar and Grille, Seaside Caf?, and Opus-Bar-Grill.
