The best Sandals resort depends on what matters most to you. Start with the kind of vacation you’re imagining, then narrow down the resorts that match.
If clear water and a gorgeous stretch of sand are at the top of your list, some Sandals resorts stand out more than others.
Looking for privacy, romantic suites, beautiful settings, and plenty of time together? Some Sandals resorts naturally fit that vibe.
If you want lots of restaurant choices, bars, entertainment, and a livelier atmosphere, resort size and location matter.
Prefer quiet mornings, fewer crowds, and a slower pace? A smaller or more laid-back Sandals may be a better fit.
I created a free Sandals Resort Guide to help you compare your options and narrow down which resort may fit your travel style, priorities, and vacation wish list.
If you already have a Sandals resort in mind, you can browse resort options, room categories, availability, and current pricing through my Sandals booking site.
Planning a Sandals vacation comes with plenty of questions. Here are answers to some of the things travelers ask me most when choosing a Sandals resort.
Are all Sandals Resorts adults-only?
Yes. Sandals Resorts are adults-only and designed for couples. If you’re traveling with children or teens, I can help you explore Beaches Resorts and other family-friendly all-inclusive options instead.
What is included at Sandals Resorts?
Sandals includes accommodations, dining, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, entertainment, and a variety of land and water activities. Many resorts also include airport transfers. Specific restaurants, activities, amenities, and inclusions vary by resort.
Which Sandals Resort is best for a honeymoon?
There isn’t one Sandals resort that is best for every honeymoon. The right choice depends on the island, beach, resort atmosphere, dining, activities, room style, budget, and the experience you want to have together. That’s where choosing the right resort really matters.
Which Sandals Resort has the best beach?
It depends on what “best” means to you. Some couples want calm turquoise water and soft white sand, while others prioritize snorkeling, water sports, privacy, or a long beach for walking. I can help you compare the beach experience along with everything else the resort offers.
What is the best Sandals Resort for first-time guests?
There isn’t a single Sandals resort I recommend to every first-time guest. A couple looking for nightlife and lots of activities may be happiest somewhere completely different from a couple wanting a quiet, romantic escape. I match the resort to your priorities rather than automatically recommending the same property to everyone.
What is the difference between Sandals Resorts?
More than you might think! Sandals resorts vary by island, size, beach, atmosphere, restaurants, activities, pools, nightlife, room categories, and overall feel. Even two Sandals resorts on the same island can offer very different vacation experiences.
Are flights included with a Sandals vacation?
Flights are not automatically included in a Sandals resort stay, but I can help you coordinate your flights along with your resort stay and other trip details.
Do I need a travel advisor to book Sandals?
No. You can book Sandals yourself. Working with a travel advisor gives you someone to help compare resorts, islands and room categories, coordinate trip details, answer questions, and provide support throughout the planning process.
Does it cost more to book Sandals with a travel advisor?
No. Booking your Sandals vacation with me does not cost you more. You get help choosing the right resort and room category, plus support with the details of your trip, without paying more for your Sandals vacation.
Can you help me choose between Sandals and another all-inclusive resort?
Absolutely. Sandals isn’t necessarily the right fit for every traveler, and my job isn’t to put everyone at the same resort. I also work with other adults-only and all-inclusive resorts throughout the Caribbean and Mexico and can help you compare your options.
Not Sure Which Sandals Resort Is Right for You?
That’s exactly what I’m here for. Start with my free Sandals Resort Guide, browse Sandals resorts and pricing through my co-branded site, or reach out and I’ll help you narrow down the options based on the vacation you actually want.
