Barbados
Sandals Barbados
Sandals is known for their all-inclusive, luxury-focused resorts, and their Sandals Barbados location is no exception! Sandals has not one, but two all-inclusive resorts on the island, each with a wide array of amenities and activites, and both with the world-class service you’ve come to expect from Sandals Resorts.
Stand-out amenities include Sandals first-ever rooftop pool and a craft beer garden! Honeymooners also get the red-carpet treatment upon arrival with a complimentary bottle of champagne, romantic rose-petal turndown service, and breakfast in bed one morning of your choice.
Bougainvillea Resort Barbados
The Bougainvillea Resort in Barbados caters to both families and couples alike! If you have children that will be joining you on your trip (no judgement, here!), The Bougainvillea also features a wide variety of on-site family-friendly activities, including an exclusive Kids Club. On-site babysitting services are also available so you can still fit in some adults-only alone time (wink, wink).
The resort offers plenty to do by way of on-site activities including multiple pools, shuffleboard, and beach volleyball. Additional off-site activities are also available such as deep sea fishing, private island exploration, party cruises, horseback riding, and much more!
Bora Bora
