FH and I are looking into going to one of the Sandals resorts for our honeymoon. I was wondering if any of you girls have gone and could give me feedback, positive or negative. We are looking at possible Ocho Rios in Jamaica but if you went to another one thats fine too. TIA!

We went to Ocho Rios!!!!! It was AMAZING!!!!
Don't go to Sandals Dunns River in Jamaica - there is no beach. It's literally 15 ft from the hotel to the ocean. No room at all.
At Ocho Rios (we went in Feb 05) there was some construction being done but it didn't really affect our stay.
They have great restaurants and fun things to do. At the beach bar, if Basil is still there ask for the Basil Special. It's just a mudslide with banana liquor but it's DELISH!
Um, it was GREAT, GREAT, GREAT! And one of the most affordable Sandals. Also, if you do an excursion to the falls, bring those water shoes otherwise they give you ones they have (too skeevy for me).
Oh man, it was so awesome! I LOVED it there!!!![]()

My Girlfriend went to sandals St. Lucia and she said it was amazing. She said that they had the BEST time on there honeymoon there.
She HiGHLY recommends sandal's resorts.
I would love to go there too, but the airport is about 1.5 hours away from the resort. We are thinking of a Sandals too, but I wasn't to sure about Jamaica b/c you can't really leave the resort. I'm glad someone mentioned the beach in the Bahamas b/c I was thinking of that one too. What about Antigua?

I went to Ochos Rios and honestly, I didn't like it one bit. I thought the natives were the rudy and pushy (I really an just giving my opinion, I don't want to offend anyone.) I would check out the one in St Lucia, and I thought the Bahamas was incredible (although I didn't stay at Sandals). GL!!!!

FI and I went to the Sandals Royal Bahaman in the Bahamas and LOOOOVED it! The service and food were excellent. We went jet skiing and out to their off shore island for dinner! We love Sandals so much we are going back to Sandals for our honeymoon (St. Lucia).
