Sandals Montego Bay is a fantastic adults-only all inclusive resort, located just a couple minutes from the Montego Bay Airport in Jamaica! This was the very first Sandals, but it has been masterfully reimagined to be modern, sleek, and luxurious.
This resort is amazing and has so much to offer! If you are wondering what you and your loved one may do while visiting this exquisite resort, let me provide you with some ideas.
- Relax at the Beach
The beach at Sandals Montego Bay is my favorite part of this resort. The waters are calm and crystal clear. The sand is soft and white. The blues in the water are phenomenal! I easily could have spent all my waking hours relaxing on this beach.
There are several different sections of the beach- some livelier than others. Be sure to explore a little to find your favorite spot.
2. Water Activities
Sandals is one of the few resorts that include such a wide range of water sports, including scuba diving!
Not only are water sports available for guests, but guests have access to top-of-the-line equipment and professional instruction. Kakaks, water skiing,, tubing, sailboats,snorkeling, hobie cats, scuba diving, paddle boarding...what more could you ask for?!
Make sure to stop by the Water Sports hut to discuss all your options and sign up for some activities.
3. Eat...LOTS!
The food is A-MAZ-ING! Even for a picky eater like me, there are so many options at all times. You will not go wanting for delicious food while you are at Sandals Montego Bay.
I started each morning off in Cafe de Paris, the coffee and pastry shop. We ate breakfast with a view at Bayside. Lunch was often at the beach from Dino's Pizzaria or Mariner Seaside Bar and Grill (but don't forget the Jerk Shack!). We enjoyed all of the specialty restaurants for dinner. Butch's Steak and Seafood is a must! Soft serve ice cream on the beach, room service nachos, jerk chicken, pastries and cakes, oh we ate it all!
Not sure what you want because everything on the menu looks so good? No worries! Order it all! That's right. It is all included and you can order as much as you would like. One thing I love doing is planning a progressive dinner one night, where we go to several restaurants and order a little something at each one.
Don't forget all your beverages are included as well.
While there are many bars to choose from, my favorite was Latitudes, the over water bar. Enjoy your adult beverages while hanging out an the hammocks over the water!
4. Red Lane Spa
Sandals has the most amazing spa available for guests. Relax and enjoy! Couples massages, salt stone massages, facials, pedicures, body wraps...the options are extensive. You can get your massage treatment done at the spa, but you can also make a special request to have your massage done in a more romantic setting, like on the beach, or in a private Cabana.
5. Nightly Entertainment
Theme nights, shows, music, games, and more! Sandals Montego Bay offers nightly entertainment and activities to keep the fun going late into the evening! Every day is a celebration.
Entertainment options and experiences looked a little different when I traveled in the fall of 2020 because of Covid. However, we did enjoy outdoor DJs, games, and dancing.
6. Resort Hop to Sandals Royal Caribbean
Stay at one, play at two! Guests of Sandals Montego Bay are able to take a shuttle over to Sandals Royal Caribbean to enjoy the entire resort!
Sandals Royal Caribbean is a gorgeous resort! The resort’s British heritage begins with the Majestic Georgian-style Great House, surrounded by manicured gardens and roaming peacocks - all complemented with well-heeled traditions like afternoon tea and a rousing game of croquet.
There are many beach coves, gardens, and wandering pools. Guests can take a boat over to the private island where you can find the spa, a pool and bar, the overwater bungalows, and a clothing optional beach.
Make sure to plan to spend some time exploring Royal Caribbean, take the boat to the private island, enjoy some of the different dining options (Bombay is one of my favorites!), and relax on the beaches!
7. Explore Jamaica through Excursions
Jamaica is a breathtaking island with so much fun to offer. Whether you are wanting to exercise your adventurous side or opt for more relaxing adventure, take at least a few hours to leave the resort and experience the country. Bamboo rafting, zip-lining, Catamaran cruises, cliff jumping, ATV adventures, fishing, snorkeling, dolphin swims! I can match you with an adventure of your dreams.
My favorite little hidden gem is Blue Hole. We went cliff jumping (over and over again), swimming in the natural water falls, tubing, rope swinging. It was an adventure of a lifetime!
8. Land Activities
If you are needing a break from all the water fun,, Sandals Montego Bay offers plenty of activities on land. Table tennis, shuffleboard, lawn chess, croquet, basketball, tennis, pool tables, beach volleyball, and board games will all keep you busy (and dry).
Sandals Montego Bay has it all!
