Sandals Royal Caribbean Reviewed for 2024

Sandals Royal Caribbean brings the Far East to about five miles northeast of Montego Bay. Featuring a one of a kind private island, hop aboard the dragon-shaped boat called “Wayang Doll” and spend a day of relaxation dining at The Royal Thai, getting a bamboo polish at the Red Lane Spa and dancing the night away in the flickering light of tiki torches on a secluded beach. If you’re on the mainland, you can spend your time in one of six pools, on the beach or eating at any of the eight world-class restaurants. If you want to do even more, Sandals exclusive "Stay at 1 – Play at 3" inclusion might be for you. This gives you full access to access both Sandals Montego Bay.

​

If you’re looking for something ultra-exclusive consider booking one of the Over the water Private Island Butler Honeymoon Bungalows.  Want to know more? Contact us today!

 

Why is Sandals Royal Caribbean Resort and Private Island our #12 pick for Best Sandals Resort?

 

• The Staff... Hands down the people working here are happy, helpful and genuine. 

• The food is spectacular, the chefs are very accommodating to food allergies and if you have any special dietary restrictions they’ll create a meal plan specific to your needs.

• Those opting for Butler service can be assured that the personalized service you’ll receive will exceed your expectations. 

• The beach is tranquil and the water is crystal clear.  While it’s not on a long beach it is divided into several smaller beaches by piers which have stunning gazebos on them. 

• We love the Private Island! Similar to Sandals Royal Bahamian in Nassau, it has a pool with a swim up bar with plenty of hammocks to relax in.  If you’re into it, there is a section of the island that is clothing optional.

• Kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, scuba diving and sailing is available and it's all included.

• There are plenty of activities during the day so you can be as active or inactive as you want to be.

• We love the Red Lane Spa at Sandals Royal Caribbean.

• Proximity… This resort is only 15 minutes from the airport so you’ll be enjoying your vacation in no time!
