WELCOME BACK TO JAMAICA!
Millions sent messages of hope and reached out to express just how beloved Jamaica is as a destination. We are so grateful to everyone who held the Sandals and Beaches Resorts team members, guests, and the local Jamaican communities in their thoughts. The support and care we’ve felt has been profoundly moving, and it is already making a difference.
It is in this spirit that we share an important update. Five of our beloved resorts in Jamaica will begin welcoming guests back, starting December 6, 2025. These include:
•Sandals Dunn’s River
•Sandals Ocho Rios
•Sandals Royal Plantation
•Sandals Negril
•Beaches Negril
Each resort has completed its comprehensive assessments to prepare for arrivals. In fact, some resorts could be available to open even sooner; however, we have made the important decision to set one reopening date for all, to offer a period of rest and recovery for our local team members in Jamaica. They have faced numerous challenges due to Hurricane Melissa, and this will enable our team to focus on themselves and their families before returning to work.
Among our remaining resorts in Jamaica will welcome guests
on May 30, 2026. These include:
•Sandals Montego Bay
•Sandals Royal Caribbean
•Sandals South Coast
These resorts, located in areas hardest hit by the storm, require additional time to fully recover and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we carry on the essential work to restore them to the high standards our guests have come to expect.
