Sandals and Beaches Resorts Introducing Layaway Plan

Sandals Resorts International has become the latest travel industry entity to join the layaway option.

Sandals is introducing Layaway & Playaway, a payment plan similar to store layaway options that enable travelers to spread the cost of a trip to Sandals or Beaches vacation over time.

There are no fees and no interest payments with the Sandals plan, which can be used at any of the 18 Sandals and Beaches resorts across the Caribbean.

How does it work?

Almost exactly the same as retail stores.

Travelers must make a minimum deposit of $49 per person when booking and then select a payment plan in which the payments can be made in installments – as few as three or as many as 24.

Book with a credit card and Sandals keeps the card on file and charges you automatically every 30 days no matter which plan you choose.

Final payment must be paid in full 45 days prior to travel.

A growing number of travel outlets are offering customers the layaway option. CheapAir.com became the first online travel agency to offer monthly payments for flight purchases back in the summer of 2016.

Later that year, United Vacations introduced packages for trips to just about anywhere in the world on a layaway plan for as little as $200 down.
