Brides who take care of their own wedding preparations have a lot of details to juggle. They need to coordinate the location of the ceremony, find a reliable photographer, possibly hire a DJ for the reception, and lots more. One of the more enjoyable details, however, should be in making plans for the honeymoon - especially if in an exotic location. Sandals is one of the more favorable spots around the world.

Sandals honeymoons are the bulk of the resort company’s business - with the majority of their guests being honeymooning couples. All Sandals’ resorts are adult’s only and designed for romance and luxury. So, if you’re planning a Sandals vacation for your honeymoon, keep reading to learn the pros and cons that you can anticipate.

Somewhat of a Cookie-Cutter Experience

Though Sandals has the honeymoon experience down pat, that makes a lot of couples cringe as they yearn for a more original honeymoon vacation. Because Sandals does so many honeymoons, it can often feel like a honeymoon “factory.”

That said, Sandals knows what they’re doing and they do it well - from the in-room breakfasts to the romantic settings and private pools, there is a reason they’re known as one of the premiere honeymoon destinations.

To avoid having the same honeymoon as everyone else, try tacking on a few extra tours or activities to your trip. A day tour of the nearby city or an afternoon spent rock climbing can mix things up and add some personal style to the trip.

Interaction With Other Couples

While Sandals honeymoons are intended to be private and romantic, there is still a significant amount of interaction with other couples. From meal times to social hours and nearby beach chairs, you’re surrounded by other couples celebrating their own honeymoon, 10-year anniversary or just enjoying a relaxing break.

Some couples really like the added social interaction, while others tend to prefer a vacation that’s slightly more private or self-catered. For that added privacy, couples have the option to invest in a private suite with catered meal service.

No Kids

Probably the most attractive feature of Sandals’ resorts is that there are no kids allowed. Instead of a trip plagued by packs of crying children, you can enjoy the peace and tranquility of a vacation just for you.

Can Be Costly

Couples planning to honeymoon at Sandals should expect to pay between $2000 and $4000 a week for a standard room, barring any promotions or discounts. That includes meals, drinks and some activities, but not airfare or additional tours. However, Sandals has a great reputation. According to most guest reviews, is well worth the extra expense when compared to other resorts.

Full Scale Customer Service

There’s one thing that Sandals honeymoons do particularly well, and that’s provide excellent, all-inclusive and luxury service to every guest. Year after year, the resort company wins awards, reviews and accolades from past guests thanks to their high level of quality and service.
