The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Really good Culinary Experience

During my stay, I was blown away by the very nice food offerings. Every meal was excellent, particularly the Indian restaurant which was a standout. We had varying cuisines available at each restaurant, and I never had a bad meal. From breakfast at The Regency Buffet to elegant dinners at Butch's Steakhouse, the quality and presentation of the dishes were perfect.

Relaxing Spa Retreat

My visit to the Red Lane Spa was a highlight. I received a massage that was truly rejuvenating. Tenesha and Rihanna were fantastic; they took their time and ensured I was enjoying myself throughout the entire experience. The serene atmosphere and soothing treatments made it a refreshing escape from daily stress.

Luxurious Butler Suite

I highly recommend booking a butler suite. Our butlers, Akine and Andre, exceeded our expectations by providing personalized service every day. They even arranged for a private dinner on the beach, making our experience feel special. The room was clean, spacious, and had all the luxury details we could ask for.

Fantastic Entertainment Options

The entertainment team at the resort was absolutely excellent. Each night offered a different theme with live music, and I even had the pleasure of DJing a night! The energy was contagious, and it was a great way to engage with other guests while enjoying a fun night out.

We had an amazing honeymoon at Sandals Royal Caribbean! The location right on the beach was simply stunning, and the club level room we stayed in was fantastic. While the food was mostly good, we found some dishes to be a bit salty and dinner service could be slow at times. The facilities were great, but the private island didn't quite meet our expectations. Overall, a blissful experience with some minor drawbacks.
