After reading some of the reviews before our vacation, I was a little nervous due to the multiple complaints about the service, staff, and overall quality of the resort. However, this turned out to be one of the most fantastic resorts my husband and I have ever visited.
Our room was well maintained (sometimes cleaned later in the evening, but we were out most of the day anyway), the fridge was stocked, and everything was clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly, the beaches and pools were beautiful and well maintained, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing and enjoyable.
We weren’t able to get reservations at the restaurants that required them, which was a bit disappointing, but there were still plenty of dining options that we enjoyed. It was sometimes challenging to find chairs near the pool or beach that weren’t already reserved for guests with butlers, but we made do and still had a wonderful time enjoying the sand and ocean.
The private island had plenty of space and was a lovely bonus. We also took advantage of the free photo session (photos are $20 each or available in bundles), and we absolutely loved the dolphin encounter and the glass-bottom boat tour—both were incredibly fun!
The resort’s nightlife was a delightful surprise. Each evening offered a variety of entertainment options, from lively beach parties with fire dancers to themed nights featuring live music and performances. We particularly enjoyed the piano bar, where guests could sing along or enjoy karaoke sessions, creating a fun and engaging atmosphere.
Overall, we had a fantastic trip and are already looking forward to visiting another Sandals location in the future.
