Sandals Resorts take up pride of place on the Caribbean’s best beaches. So we know sun, sea and sand are part of the package at their 16 exquisite properties. But aside from nature’s gifts, what else is in store for guests at these all-inclusive hideaways? And are the inclusions really the most numerous, and highest in quality, of any all-inclusive hotelier?

Going all-inclusive for your Caribbean holiday guarantees value for money, and adds a certain air of care-free spontaneity other meal plans just can’t provide. When you don’t even need your wallet in-resort, balancing your budget is hardly a concern either.

All you’ll be spending is time; time to enjoy the good things, and less spent worrying about the cost. We like the sound of that. But the all-inclusive market is a crowded place. How does the discerning jetsetter separate the all-inclusive from the all-insufficient? If you want it all from your meal plan, don’t be found wanting with meagre inclusions. Let’s find out how Sandals Resorts measure up when it comes to what’s included.

INCLUDED Luxurious Accommodations

Jamaica, Barbados, the Bahamas, Grenada, Saint Lucia and Antigua are the sun-soaked Caribbean islands chosen to play host to Sandals Resorts. The wider appeal of the settings – from the reggae rhythms and sizzling cuisine to the volcanic scenery and sublime beaches – needs no introduction. But the in-resort story starts with your accommodation. At Sandals, opulent interiors, separate sitting areas and dedicated concierge teams mean these romantic abodes are perfect for two people in love. Think personal butlers, infinity edge private pools, and 180° views, depending on your chosen resort and room category, for individual charms of the resorts’ complete accommodation portfolio.

INCLUDED 5-Star Dining

For foodies, the 5-Star Global Gourmet™ dining experience at Sandals Resorts will be one the highlights of your stay. Keep those iPhones handy too because these dishes look great on Instagram. Across all 16 of their individual resorts, Sandals boast over 50 restaurants, with menus spanning the gastronomic crossroads of the world. And you can look forward to as many as 21 unique culinary concepts. This is choice, innovation and quality unmatched by any other all-inclusive provider. For drinks, it’s all about Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee (the world’s finest); Robert Mondavi Twin Oaks premium wines; and unlimited premium top shelf beverages. That’s the spirit.

Only at Sandals can guests expect complimentary diving* as part of their all-inclusive privileges.

Explore the Caribbean’s underwater treasures and marine wildlife, with compliments from Sandals. Plus, cause a splash with unlimited watersports – including motorised. Which other all-inclusive resort can say that?

INCLUDED Golf at Sandals Unlimited Play & Complimentary Green Fees**

Fancy a round on the links? You won’t have to put your hand in your pocket, unless to fish out your score card, that is. You can tee off in style at no extra cost at your Sandals all-inclusive resort in Jamaica, Saint Lucia or the Bahamas. Play on some of the most scenic, challenging and prestigious golf courses in the entire Caribbean, including the Greg Norman-designed 18-hole championship course at Sandals Emerald Bay in the Bahamas.

INCLUDED Weddings & Honeymoons

At the heart of the Sandals ethos is the idea of romance; these holiday retreats are designed for two people in love. To show their commitment to love’s young dream, Sandals Resorts include weddings and honeymoons on the all-inclusive plan. So you can say I do in paradise, and take your first steps together as newlyweds through the soft sands of a castaway beach… bliss.
