Sandals All-Inclusive Luxury Caribbean
Jamaica
Sandals is the couples-only luxury all-inclusive with the most included in the base price of any brand we sell — unlimited dining, premium spirits, scuba, water sports, tips — across eight Caribbean islands: Jamaica, Antigua, Saint Lucia, the Bahamas, Grenada, Barbados, Curaçao and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Beaches is its family sister, with water parks, kids' camps and included scuba at two resorts, Negril and Turks & Caicos. Both run wedding and group programs.

Our take
When a couple asks us for the honeymoon that needs no decisions, this is the answer, and when a family wants the same standard we point them to Beaches. The catch with Sandals is that it is strictly two adults in love — no friend groups of three, no kids — and the catch with Beaches is that there are only two resorts, so dates matter. Price is the other conversation: the base rate looks high until you add up what other brands charge for scuba, premium drinks and tips.
Highlights
- Couples only (Sandals) or families (Beaches) — two brands, one standard
- More included in the base price than any other all-inclusive: dining, premium drinks, scuba, water sports, gratuities
- Eight islands for Sandals; Beaches at Negril, Jamaica and Providenciales, Turks & Caicos
- Butler-service suites and overwater bungalows at the top of the range
- Wedding and group programs with an on-site coordinator

The real cost of this trip
The “from” price is the operator's land-only rate. This is what sits on top of it, so the number you budget is the number you pay.
| Flights and transfers | Airport transfers are included at Sandals and Beaches; flights from South Florida are extra and short. |
| Spa and premium excursions | Spa treatments and off-resort excursions are extra. |
| Flights | Not included; Mexico and the Caribbean are two to three hours from Fort Lauderdale and Miami. |
| Airport transfers | Included at some brands (Sandals and Beaches), extra at most; we build them into the package. |
| Room tier | The 'from' rate is the entry room; swim-up, butler and oceanfront rooms cost more and change the experience. |
| Spa, premium spirits, motorized water sports | Extra at nearly every all-inclusive. |
| Travel protection | Not included; hurricane-season trips especially warrant it. |
| Gratuities | Included at some brands (Sandals), customary and extra at most. |

Questions we get about this trip
What is the difference between Sandals and Beaches?
Sandals resorts admit couples only (two adults). Beaches resorts take families and groups of any make-up, with kids' camps, water parks and Sesame Street programming. Same company, same inclusions.
Where are the Beaches resorts?
Negril, Jamaica and Providenciales in Turks & Caicos. Two resorts, so peak weeks book up early.
Is scuba really included?
Yes — for certified divers, boat dives are included at both brands; gear and courses beyond that are extra.
How far ahead should we book?
Holiday weeks and spring break book a year out; most other weeks can be booked three to six months ahead. Group room blocks need the earliest start.
What if we need to cancel?
Resort terms vary and hurricane-season clauses differ by brand; we show you the exact terms before you commit.
Cancellation policy
Most all-inclusive packages: full refund 60+ days out, 50% credit 59-30 days, no refund inside 30 days. Hurricane/tropical-storm clauses vary by supplier — read specific terms. Insurance with cancel-for-any-reason upgrade strongly recommended for hurricane-season bookings (Jun-Nov).
Documents needed
Valid passport book (6+ months past return) required for Mexico, Caribbean, Central America. Birth certificate + photo ID accepted on closed-loop US cruises only — flights need a passport. No visa for US citizens for typical destinations; Cuba is the exception (special tourist card required).
