3 Reasons I Recommend Sandals & Beaches Over Other All-Inclusives

Written By Breanne Crawford

If you’ve ever Googled “best all-inclusive resort” and felt instantly overwhelmed—you're not alone.

With so many options out there, it's easy to assume they're all the same: pretty beaches, unlimited food, drinks that keep flowing. But the truth? Not all all-inclusives are created equal—and when it comes to a truly elevated experience, Sandals and Beaches Resorts consistently rise to the top.

As a travel advisor with firsthand experience visiting nearly every Sandals and Beaches location and helping hundreds of clients find their perfect fit, I’ve learned exactly what sets these resorts apart.

1. They're Actually All-Inclusive—No Hidden Fees, No Fine Print

Let’s start here, because this is where most “all-inclusives” fall short.

At Sandals (adults-only) and Beaches (for families), your stay includes:

  • Premium liquors + Robert Mondavi wine

  • All meals at up to 21 gourmet restaurants per resort

  • Land + water sports (even scuba diving!)

  • Roundtrip airport transfers

  • All tips, taxes, and gratuities

  • Nightly entertainment and live shows

  • Snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding, and more

  • Motorized watersports at select Sandals and Beaches Resorts

While many resorts upsell these perks, Sandals and Beaches keep it simple: no surprise charges, just genuine luxury.

2. The Service Is Simply Unmatched

This is where the WOW really kicks in.

From the moment you arrive, the staff at Sandals and Beaches treat you like royalty. They remember your name, your favorite drink, and how you like your morning coffee. And if you choose Club Level or Butler Elite, the experience becomes even more seamless and personalized.

Traveling with kids? Beaches Resorts go above and beyond with:

  • Complimentary baby gear (cribs, strollers, bottle warmers)

  • Certified nannies

  • Age-specific kids and teen clubs

It’s this elevated, heartfelt service that makes every trip feel effortless—and why so many of my clients say it was the most stress-free vacation they’ve ever taken.

3. Every Occasion Feels Like a Celebration

Whether you're planning a honeymoon, babymoon, vow renewal, or just craving a romantic escape, Sandals and Beaches roll out the red carpet without you even needing to ask.

They offer:

  • Free weddings with a 3-night minimum stay

  • Anniversary perks and honeymoon bonuses

  • Private candlelight dinners and photo sessions

  • Dreamy suites with swim-up pools and ocean views

And as your travel advisor, I’ll help you tailor every detail to make it feel truly one-of-a-kind.
