When planning your honeymoon, we know that you are looking for the experience of a lifetime. So often, we are asked, “What is the best Sandals Resort?” And while it would be nice if there was one easy answer, the truth is that all of the Sandals Resorts are fabulous for different reasons! Each couple is looking for different experiences for their destination wedding or honeymoon so we have rated some Sandals Resorts based on common wish list items.
Best Sandals Resort Beaches
The truth is that all Sandals Resorts have beautiful beaches but here are a few of our favorites:
- For the best sunsets on 7 miles of beach, Sandals Negril is our choice.
- For glistening white sand and crystal clear water, Sandals Emerald Bay takes the cake
- For the most privacy, we select the 2 miles of beach at Sandals South Coast
- On an island known for its stunning beaches, Sandals Grande Antigua is one of our top choices.
- Sandals Grande St Lucian is a client favorite located in a bay on one of St. Lucia’s nicest beaches.
Best Sandals Resorts for A Quick Trip
For a shorter trip, travel time and availability are important considerations. You don’t want to be spending all of your vacation time on an airplane! For the best flight availability and affordability, destinations like Jamaica or the Bahamas may be your best choice.
Most Intimate Sandals Resorts
For some couples, a smaller, more intimate resort is preferable. More privacy, fewer distractions and luxurious amenities can be found at these resorts:
- Sandals Royal Plantation is the ultimate choice for exquisite privacy.
- Sandals Halcyon Beach is described as a “true garden of eden.”
Enjoy a world-class golfing experience with complimentary green fees. Book your tee times at some of the most spectacular courses in the Caribbean.
- Guests of the 3 Sandals Resorts on the beautiful island of St. Lucia – Sandals Halcyon Beach, Sandals Grande St. Lucian and Sandals Regency La Toc – have access to the beautiful St. Lucia Cap Estate, an 18-hole, par 71 course features 6,744 yards of sprawling green slopes, dotted with attractive ponds and lush foliage. Featuring a practice range with putting and chipping greens, this magnificent golf course is ideal for any level of experience.
- Sandals Ochi and Sandals Royal Plantation are each about 15 minutes from the golf course but transfers and greens fees are included with your stay.
Most Affordable Sandals Resorts
Before we give our recommendations for the most affordable Sandals Resorts, we want to encourage you to think about what your dream honeymoon looks like. Budgets are important but if you aren’t excited about your destination, the value is lost. With that in mind, we have found that airfare to Jamaica and to the Bahamas tend to be the least expensive. Resorts in Jamaica also tend to be the most affordable. Here are our budget-friendly resort recommendations:
- Sandals Montego Bay has great value and an exciting night life.
- Sandals Ochi Beach Resort has amazing affordable room options
- Sandals Royal Caribbean is perfect for some R&R.
Best Honeymoon Suites
One of our favorite features of a stay at Sandals Resort is that you can choose from a variety of room and suite options. From intimate all-inclusive overwater bungalows to tranquil Skypool suites, Sandals has some of the best amenities out there.
Overwater Bungalows
All of the perks of a private suite over the water combined with access to all of the amenities available to you at an all-inclusive resort like Sandals makes a stay in an overwater bungalow the perfect romantic retreat, which is possible at these 4 resorts:
Suites with Private Pools
What could be nicer than having a suite that includes your very own private pool to enjoy?
Skypool Suites
Elevate your romantic trip to new levels with a stay in a SkyPool Suite. Walk out of your bedroom into an infinity plunge pool or a Tranquility Soaking Tub with stunning ocean views. With only three resorts boasting these luxurious love nests, this is an exclusive amenity that will create a truly unique experience for you and your partner. Check out our full review here.
