Let’s Go To Barbados!

September 17, 2021 by Hannah Head

Let’s face it, Mondays are better when they don’t require an alarm clock. The best way to toss away those Monday blues is to enjoy a little island time.

Looking for a little tropical inspiration? One of our agents, Amy Frank, just returned from Sandals Royal Barbados and has the 4-1-1 on everything you need to know about this island paradise. Check out her review below:

I recently had the opportunity to travel to Sandals Royal Barbados and was completely wowed by this resort! There are two Sandals properties in Barbados; Sandals Barbados, and Sandals Royal Barbados and they are the newest properties in the Sandals brand with the exception of Sandals Royal Curacao opening in April 2022. They are in the St. Lawrence Gap area of Barbados and only 15 minutes from the airport. The two resorts are located right next to each other. You can actually go between the two and not even realize you’ve moved from one side to the other. The best part is that when you stay at one you get full access to both no matter which one you are staying at!

What I loved about Sandals Royal Barbados…

The rooms. This resort is perfect for guests who are looking for modern and luxurious rooms. There are so many room category choices, and the rooms are beautiful regardless of what category you are in. All rooms are suites and are either club or butler level. Club level room categories include a stocked mini bar, dedicated club lounge & room service until 10pm. Butler room categories include private Rolls Royce transfers, private in room check-in, 24-hour room service, and a phone with direct access to your butler to handle your every request. Honestly, having a butler is the way to go if your budget allows!

The FOOD.
With 20 restaurants to choose from (plus room service) you will never go hungry. I have found the food quality to be consistently high throughout all the Sandals Resort properties. For all-inclusive food, I think you will be pleasantly surprised with how good the food is. Coming soon to Sandals Royal Barbados are two new restaurants; Heart & Sol, a New York-style deli featuring fresh and healthy ingredients and The Greenhouse, the first Sandals restaurant to offer a modern, farm-to-table concept. Oh, and did I mention that they have a donut shop?

Insider tip: There a few restaurants that require reservations. Make sure to make dining reservations as soon as you arrive on property as these can fill up quickly. Having a butler will increase your chances of securing your desired dining reservations.

The POOLS.
Sandals Royal Barbados is the first Sandals Resort to have a rooftop infinity pool and it is amazing. Between the two resorts (Sandals Barbados and Sandals Royal Barbados) there are 6 pools, and they are all gorgeous. There are several room categories that have direct access to a crystal lagoon right from your room patio. And if you are looking for the ultimate experience, you can have your very own private plunge pool in a Skypool Butler Suite or Rondoval Butler Suite.

Insider tip: The rooftop bar, Sky is the perfect place to grab a drink before dinner and watch the sunset.

The BEACH.

The beach is beautiful! The sand is white, and the water is clear. There is a rock wall to cut down on the big waves so guests and swim. Please note that the water can be rough at times though. Non-motorized sports such as kayaks, paddle boards and Hobie Cats are included.

Things to keep in mind when traveling to Sandals Royal Barbados:

  • Dining reservations (for select restaurants) for both resorts are released on Saturdays and get booked up quickly.

  • Lounge chairs begin to fill up quickly. This is where have a butler comes in handy!

  • Currently a COVID test is required to reenter the United States upon the completion of your vacation. Sandals Royal Barbados will have you log into an online portal to schedule your return test.

My wife and I recently traveled to Disney World with Hannah’s help and had an amazing time. We did what amounted to just a weekend in FL and Hannah was incredible at helping us plan our time, learn all of Disney’s tips and tricks, and hit everything we wanted to in our short time available. Would highly recommend her and will definitely be asking her to help us again when we go back!

Hannah helped us plan our family’s week-long Christmas Vacation to Disney World last December (2017)! This was when she was working as a cast member for Disney World, and having been there for 5 months prior, she knew the parks exceptionally well! For starters, after we told her we’d be doing the Disney 4 day Any Park Pass, she coordinated Fast Passes for highly popular rides on those days. That then helped us decide what order to go see the parks. For the most part, we only went to one park a day, but she also planned occasional special evening events at other parks (like parades, firework shows, etc). She also suggested we spend an extra $15 on wristbands that keep track out our individual accounts which listed our park pass, Fast Passes, character pictures from the park, starred or interested events, and wait times for rides to say the least. She introduced us to the Disney Park App which gave us a visual of the parks and or accounts! During days in which we didn’t go to the parks (4-day pass, week-long vacation) she gave us suggestions on places to see nearby, like the Disney Springs shopping center! We practically spent a whole afternoon and evening there window shopping and buying things! I myself was looking for a very specific gift for a gift exchange and she knew of the only two locations where the gift might be found: inside the Magic Kingdom or at Disney Springs. I found it at Disney Springs! On the rare occasion that plans didn’t work out (my wife had difficulties with her entry pass), Hannah worked with the customer services to resolve the issue quickly. She even showed up to the park one day to talk with the customer services face to face! Hannah...
