WHY IT RATES: The all-new Sandals Montego Bay is even better than before.-Codie Liermann, Associate Editor
Sandals Montego Bay-the very first Luxury Included resort in the Sandals Resorts family, located on the most exclusive stretch of white sand beach in Montego Bay, Jamaica-has been exceeding guests' expectations since its inception in 1981.
Since day one, Sandals has set out to be deliberately unique-from being the first Caribbean hotel company to offer swim-up pool bars to being the first to guarantee that every room is fitted with a king-size bed and hair dryer.
Thirty-eight years later, Sandals Resorts' ethos remains the same-allowing the company to sustain its leadership in the all-inclusive space through constant innovation based on the inclusions and amenities that matter most to two people in love.
Sandals has now concluded a transformation of its entire flagship resort, and the completely redesigned Sandals Montego Bay takes Luxury Included to the next level from the moment you arrive at the resort.
"Sandals Resorts was built on the simple principle of exceeding guests' expectations, and this especially rings true today with the complete transformation of our hallmark resort, Sandals Montego Bay," said Gordon 'Butch' Stewart, Chairman and Founder of Sandals Resorts.
"I am very proud of how far Sandals has come since 1981, and I am very proud of where we're going. We will continue to redefine the Luxury Included experience and, of course, exceed our guests' wildest expectations in the process."
Guests of Sandals Montego Bay staying in Club and Butler room categories will enjoy complimentary, private luxury roundtrip transfers in a chauffeur-driven BMW, ensuring their Luxury Included vacation experience begins the second they step off the plane.
Upon arrival at the resort, guests will enter an airy, reimagined lobby space complete with a main bar that provides a direct view to the beautiful turquoise waters lapping at Jamaica's most exclusive white sand beach. A new conference center featuring cutting-edge technology is also available to groups staying on property.
Today, Sandals Montego Bay expanded its mouthwatering 5-Star Global Gourmet offerings with the openings of two new restaurants and a new bar. Butch's Steak & Seafood provides an incredible culinary experience and takes the name of Sandals Resorts International's Founder and Chairman, Gordon 'Butch' Stewart, while Soy serves unmatched Asian cuisine in an authentic décor setting.
The all-new Palms Bar services both restaurants and is a spot to grab an after-dinner drink. The Jerk Shack opened at Sandals Montego Bay in fall 2018 and is known for its irresistible Jamaican cuisine-including jerk chicken, pork or sausage, roasted fish in foil, festival, roast breadfruit and roast sweet potato. These new additions now bring Sandals Montego Bay's 5-Star Global Gourmet offerings to 12 unique culinary concepts and six bars.
To complement its unmatched dining options, Sandals has opened its second Latitudes Overwater Bar at Sandals Montego Bay. The resort's newest bar boasts 360-degree ocean views from its prime location just off the coast of the resort's pristine white-sand beach.
Guests can lounge on a hammock suspended above turquoise waters by day and enjoy sunset cocktails gathered around the intimate fire pits by night. Latitudes joins the resort's five additional bars in serving premium liquors and Robert Mondavi Twin Oaks wines-which are always unlimited and always included.
Another recent unveiling at Sandals Montego Bay is the Over-the-Water Serenity Wedding Chapel, elevating the resort's wedding experience to unprecedented heights and bringing guests closer than ever to the water.
Brides and grooms looking to tie the knot can choose this unique and stunning venue featuring breathtaking panoramic water views and a signature glass floor aisle. The chapel can host up to 40 lucky guests, who will witness the couple truly walk on water in celebration of their big day.
When it comes to luxurious accommodations, guests have incredible choices-from the new Beachfront Swim-up Suites and Crystal Lagoon Swim-up Suites to the romantic Love Nest Butler Suites. The new swim-up suites-reflecting refined interior touches-provide the convenience of swim-up pool access right from your patio.
Sandals' signature Love Nest Butler Suites offer wall-to-wall glass doors, a signature Tranquility Soaking Tub for two, 24-hour room service and a personal butler to take care of your every wish.
Sandals is innovating at every touch point of the all-inclusive experience to continue exceeding guests' expectations, while still preserving the elements of a Luxury Included vacation experience that made guests fall in love with Sandals Montego Bay, a true original.
