Choose Sandals if…
- It's just the two of you and you want an adults-only setting.
- You're planning a honeymoon, anniversary, or destination wedding.
- Golf, quiet beaches, and couples dining matter more than kids' programming.
Decide With Confidence
Sandals or Beaches? Here's the honest difference.
Both are all-inclusive Caribbean brands from the same family of resorts. The simplest way to choose: Sandals is adults-only for couples, Beaches is built for families and groups.
Side by side
| Consideration | Sandals | Beaches |
|---|---|---|
| Who it's built for | Couples only — Sandals resorts are adults-only (two people per room). | Families and mixed groups of all ages, including young children. |
| Typical trip | Honeymoon, anniversary, destination wedding, adults-first getaway. | Family vacation, multigenerational trip, milestone celebration. |
| Room planning | Room category and view drive the experience; one room per couple. | Suites, connecting rooms, and multi-room configurations for the group. |
| Pace | Quieter, adults-only spaces and dining. | Family programming and water features; livelier by design. |
| Where we start | Match resort personality and island to the two of you. | Start with who's traveling, then work backward to rooms and dates. |
Resort inclusions, room categories, and promotions are set by the supplier and change often. We confirm current details for your specific dates before anything is booked.
