Sandals Royal Caribbean

After spending a week at South Coast, we stayed three nights at Sandals Royal Caribbean to relax and enjoy the amazing food before going back home. It is a great way to break up the long travel day when staying at SSC and flying out of Montego Bay. Sandals Royal Caribbean is one of our favorite resorts. The restaurants are the best at SRC, the views beautiful, but it is all about the people! Our butlers Ellis and Gay-Ann made it the best days of our vacation. Didn’t have Dwight as one of our butlers this trip, but was nice to see him and visit. Le Jardinier is the best restaurant of all. Always wonderful food and atmosphere and our servers Chevel and Romerero made the evening so enjoyable. Royal Thai on the island is a must always. Joy is so sweet and Shellice took very good care of us. The best pub is Cricketer’s and wish every Sandals had one! Our last night was great there! Javan (spelling?), Dewayne, and Romero made great drinks, fun conversation and kept us full of the best fish n chips. We always look forward to Cricketer’s! We will be back at SRC again next year! Added three days to our Negril trip to come back, see Ellis, Dwight, and Gay-Ann again. Can’t wait to see the expansion and new buildings when completed. Highly recommend always adding SRC to all of your Jamaica trips. Thank you Sandals for a wonderful ending to our annual November Sandals trip!

First stay in Jamaica, having been to other Caribbean islands before. First stay at Sandals. We found the Royal Caribbean to be excellent in everything. The food was by far the best all inclusive of any other all inclusive we’ve been on in Europe and in Caribbean. The atmosphere here is great. Not a super lively resort, but easy to get to Montango Bay hotel for more lovely evenings if desired. Great access to boats for scuba (we didn’t), snorkelling (we did) and other paid for boat excursions (we did). Our room was also great, spacious and well serviced every day - it was a “Crystal lagoon hideaway jr suite with balcony” - not butlered, but we didn’t think that was what we wanted anyway and felt fully well served across everything at the hotel anyway. We would love to come back !

Overall a very good vacation with good food, decent room and a very relaxing beach side set up. It did take a bit too long on check in especially as there were numerous gusts who arrived well after us _ think 2 hours ( we did go for a very nice lunch) who got checked in and taken off to their rooms. Butler service was good with Nicole being exceptional. Can't say enough good things about her - maybe the best butler we have had on our our trips to sandals. Best food was at spices with Le Jardinière a close second. Checkout was smooth and easy but the private car ride to the airport wasn't so good as the car to be used had a problem and the back up arrived about 20 minutes after pickup time. Obviously the car problem must have been known well before pick up time but there was a lack of good communication making it a bit frustrating. The back up driver was an absolute gem and did a great job of chatting away an easing us back into happy vacation mode for another hour or two! Overall a very good vacation with a couple of annoying wrinkles.

all was great, service,food, room,airport transfer,butlers, staff,managers,entertainment, bartenders (except for 1) were ALL GREAT

This was our third time at this resort. We do love this place. It offers restaurants of many different cuisines also quick beach bites. At the main swimming pool there are a lot of activities throughout the day. The staffs are very welcoming makes you feel at home. The beach is not very big but well maintained. But it can be difficult to find beach chairs during busy season. Night time entertainment can be amazing. We really loved the steal drum performance. But the acoustic is always very loud regardless of performance. So bring a pair of earplugs.
