When it comes to exclusive holiday resorts in some of the most beautiful places in the world, there is one chain that is often held up above all the others and that is Sandals. There is an incredible amount of hype surrounding Sandals vacations, with even people who have never had the chance of taking one of these highly regarded getaways suggesting they are among the best of the best. Does the hype hold up? Below we have outlined several reasons why we feel Sandals vacations are worth it.
No Hidden Costs, Charges or Fees
It’s always a pain, don’t you agree? When you go to book a holiday and think you are paying X amount of dollars, only to discover upon arrival that there are additional charges and costs you were not informed of until the moment you set foot in the foyer or reception area.
This is especially true of so-called all-inclusive holiday resorts, where you discover that all-inclusive is not all-inclusive all the time or that some services at specific times are offered at extra costs. This is simply not the case with Sandals vacations. There are no dining restrictions and you have the freedom to drink whatever you want and enjoy a variety of activities, whether you prefer golf, diving or something completely different.
There are still certain amenities you will have to pay a premium for, but these are all outlined very clearly in the promotional literature and on the websites offering these holidays. As there is the stringent no-tipping policy across all Sandals resorts, you don’t need to worry about having any cash money during your stay.
No Kids
Now, if you are a family and looking to get away from it all together with the kids in tow, there’s nothing wrong with that. However, sometimes it is nice to go somewhere without kids, not just your own, but others as well. It can be hard to soak up the atmosphere of a Caribbean island beach with screaming kids running around. For the most part, Sandals resorts across the board, are kid-free zones.
Incredible Service
One thing, besides the stunning locations of resorts, that Sandals vacations are renowned for is the level of service offered. Staff members are highly trained in this department and offer a second-to-none standard of service where you and your comfort and enjoyment are a priority. There is a reason why so many people return to the same Sandals resorts year in, year out and a lot of that is down to the staff at these resorts. Many vacationers, by the time their holiday has finished, have made friends for life with the staff they have encountered and when they return to reconnect with them like they were close friends.
If you want a truly guest-focused service where you are only met with friendly and warm people, a Sandals vacation delivers that.
Something For Everyone
We have already touched upon this further up the page, but it is worth highlighting that at Sandals, it doesn’t matter what your interests are, there is something there for everyone. The resorts bearing the Sandals name have been developed and devised to appeal to a wide variety of people from all walks of life. Are you looking to relax on the beach for the entire time you are there or just chill out by the pool with cocktails all day? At Sandals, you can do that. Whereas if you are interested in exploring the local area or taking part in aquatic activities and watersports, you can also do that.
Even if you are interested in a full-on R and R experience with spa services throughout your vacation, you can do that at a Sandals resort.
