At Scout Elf Central, families discover resort-wide activities and hands-on fun, while additional programming includes holiday scavenger hunts, arts and crafts, Christmas karaoke, Scout Elf storytime, and more.
Guests staying in Butler accommodations can put their Scout Elf on the V.I.E. list – as Very Important Scout Elves receive special holiday treatment from Beaches’ Jingle Shell Butlers, including miniature milk and cookies, mini marshmallow baths, festive trail mix and other surprises delivered throughout their stay.
Following its successful debut last year, The Elf on the Shelf Caribbean Vacation Suite at Beaches Turks and Caicos returns for the 2026 holiday season, giving families the opportunity to experience the festivities from check-in to bedtime. Located in the Italian Village, the seven-person suite is inspired by the Scout Elf’s signature red-and-white couture, with whimsical holiday décor, custom wallpaper, themed bedding, festive collectibles, a twinkling Christmas tree and playful Scout Elf touches throughout. In the bunk room, little guests can enjoy holiday storybooks, themed games and Scout Elf plush toys, while the walkout patio offers easy access to the Italian Village pool, complete with candy cane-inspired furnishings and playful Scout Elf décor. A dedicated Jingle Shell Butler adds personalized service and festive surprises to the experience.
