How to select the right resort
Some thoughts:
Location
How long is the flight and how long a drive is the transfer from the airport to the resort?
Atmosphere
Some Sandals resorts are more lively, while others are quieter and more laid-back. For example, Sandals Halcyon Beach, Sandals Emerald Bay, and Sandals Royal Plantation tend to be quieter, while Sandals Ochi and Sandals Montego Bay are livelier.
Amenities
Some Sandals resorts have many amenities and restaurants, while others have a select few high-quality options.
Nearby attractions
Consider what attractions are near the resort to help you decide which one is best for you. For example, Sandals Royal Barbados is a 15-minute drive from Bridgetown, the capital city, which has a boat dock for snorkeling and diving excursions.
Romantic options
Some Sandals resorts are considered particularly good for honeymoons, such as Sandals St. Vincent, Sandals Grand St. Lucian, Sandals Grenada, Sandals South Coast, and Sandals Royal Plantation.
Pools
Some people may prioritize pools over the beach. For example, Sandals South Coast in Jamaica has the largest swimming pool on the island.
Luxury, Club, or Butler Level Accommodations
Club and Butler Level accommodations offer personalized services and exclusive benefits, such as premier locations or 24-hour butler service.

Sandals Grande St. Lucian is located on a small peninsula, surrounded by the Caribbean and the Atlantic. The oceanfront rooms face the Caribbean Sea, while the beachfront rooms face Rodney Bay and the amazing Grand Piton peaks of the rainforest. Sunsets over the peaks are breathtaking.
The resort was built by the Hyatt hotels in 1996 and sold to Sandals in 2001. The Irish pub, Olde London Pub, was purchased in Ireland and reassembled near the main lobby.
Sandals Grande St Lucian is not only known for having the calmest waters in St. Lucia, it is also home to many over-the-water features.

Sandals La Toc, is approximately 90 from (UVF) Hewanorro International Airport. I always tell our clients to sit as close to the driver as possible in the free transfer bus because of the winding roads through the beautiful rainforest. Private transfers and private helicopter rides are available for an extra charge, which our office can help with.
St Lucia has 3 Sandals resorts where you can stay at one and play at three using the free Sandals transfer buses. The resort is located 10 minutes from the Castries, Capital of St Lucia. Butler suites are located on the Bluffs, which offer amazing views of the Caribbean and sunsets.
Golfers, there is a 9 hole professional golf course on property as well as an 18 hold course just a short 30 minutes away. Due to the surf and coral reef, snorkel or scuba dive boats are a short bus ride to the dock.

Sandals Halcyon, with 169 rooms, is a boutique-style resort where one-on-one relationships often develop between employees and guests. The resort is small and intimate with an amazing seafood restaurant, Kelly’s Dockside on a pier over the water. Be sure to get a reservation here because guests from Sandals Grande St. Lucian and Sandals La Toc always come to dine. You, too, will be able to participate in the "stay at one and play at three" exchange with Sandals St. Lucian Grande and Sandals La Toc. Why not add 18 restaurants and a 9 hole golf course with no green fees to your visit?
This is an authentic Caribbean resort with romance at its core.

Sandals Royal Barbados is located 15 minutes from Grantley Adams International Airport. It introduces the first-ever rooftop pool to the Caribbean. This magnificent pool is joined on the rooftop with a bar, and Le Jardinier, a classic a la carte French cuisine restaurant. You will not believe the 360-degree rooftop view of Barbados from that vantage point. The rooftop pool is not the only pool that will blow you away! The huge beachfront pool is set right on the beach and even has a glass wall to give you the feeling of floating right at the sand’s edge.
All room categories are either club-level suites where guests enjoy Club Sandal's concierge services or Butler Elite services that include 24-hour personal attention. All rooms offer room service, spa-style bathrooms, and balcony tranquility soaking tubs.
The suites are located in two villages. The South Seas Village is within walking distance to the swim-up pool bar and the beach. The Seaside Village is located in front of the quiet pool with a view of the white sandy beach. Both villages have amazing pools and swim-up lagoon pools.
The Beachfront Suites in the Stargazer building offer private beachfront large private pools and sky pools - both are the ultimate in luxury.
We are very excited to share that the spa is an amazing 15,000 sq ft spa with a grand entryway and gorgeous gardens.

Sandals Barbados is built on 7 acres of land located at the water’s edge of Maxwell Beach. It is a short 15 minutes from Grantley Adams International Airport. The St. Lawrence Gap area, known for its restaurants, nightlife, and shopping is a 5-minute cab ride away. Like jazz? This is the island for you!
The main pool is located in front of the Beachfront Village overlooking the Caribbean. This is where the party is! You will certainly enjoy the beautiful swim-up bar, music, and action! The quiet pool is built in a European-style pool behind the Beachfront Village surrounded by red and white cabanas and lush greenery. The Café de Paris is directly behind the quiet pool and we like to stop in for a cappuccino to sip on while lounging. Should you choose the Crystal Lagoon Village as your accommodation, you will have the opportunity to enjoy one of the balcony or infinity-edge swim-up lagoon pool suites. Bliss!
Sandals Royal Barbados was built right next door, giving you the opportunity to “stay at one and play at two” 5 Star luxury all Included resorts covering 21 acres of beautiful Barbados.

Sandals Grenada is also known as “the Spice Island." Sandals Grenada is located on the sands of the Pink Gin Beach. There are pools everywhere! This was the first Sandals resort to build infinity pools on the balconies of some of their suites.
The quiet pool is an infinity pool overlooking the Caribbean with a living room complete with a fire pit, in its center. There are private plunge pools, meandering lagoon-style pools, and waterfall pools on the property.
The resort is characterized by 4 villages to choose from—Pink Gin, South Seas, Lover’s Hideaway, and Italian Village. Many of these rooms also come with the ever-popular tranquility soaking tub on the patio or balcony. Our personal favorite is the Pink Gin Walkout....right onto the beach.
