What to look for

The best Caribbean resorts for toddlers start with the water.

With little ones, look for a shallow beach without waves, a room at sand or garden level so naps and snacks are a few steps away, and space for the grown-ups to sleep apart.

A kids’ club helps older siblings and gives parents and grandparents a quiet hour. These six get the details right.
