WARM WELCOME

Paradise awaits at the new luxury all-inclusive Sandals Dunn’s River resort

-

Researchin­g and planning the ‘perfect’ holiday can feel like a journey in itself: working out where to go, what to do and, of course, how you’ll fit in sampling all the delicious local delicacies. It’s a lot of effort when all you want to do is relax. Consider, then, an all-inclusive holiday, which allows you to bypass the stress, so you can start to unwind from the moment you book.

On Jamaica’s northern coast, close to the spectacula­r Dunn’s River Falls, sits the all-new Sandals Dunn’s River resort, a recent addition to the company’s portfolio – which includes 16 other all-inclusive resorts across Saint Lucia, Antigua, Barbados, Grenada, the Bahamas, and Curaçao. Nestled in a secluded spot, hand-picked by the founder for its beautiful beach, forests and waterfalls, this blissful setting is just the start. Here are the (many) reasons why it’s our pick for a romantic, relaxing retreat.

NEW FOR YOU

This iconic resort, in the heart of Ocho Rios, is set to open in spring 2023 after a full redesign and renovation. Its one-of-a-kind accommodat­ion includes Jamaica’s first ever beachfront Skypool Suites, while the Coyaba Sky Rondoval villas feature a personal butler, huge roof terraces, and private pools accessible from the bedrooms. This all-new resort continues Sandals’ legacy of award-winning all-inclusive service, with a choice of 12 gourmet on-resort restaurant­s, each offering an array of dishes and internatio­nal cuisine. There are also nine bars, including a swim-up bar, serving unlimited premium spirits.

SPOILED FOR CHOICE

Guests can immerse themselves in any of five incredible swimming pools and two river pools, and enjoy live entertainm­ent, day or night. Those keen on active pursuits will appreciate the state-of-the-art fitness centre, or can choose from a vast range of land and water sports, from tennis and golf to scuba diving and kayaking, with instructor­s on hand if you need extra guidance – all included in the overall price of your holiday.

And that’s not all – Sandals Dunn’s River offers compliment­ary exchange privileges with the nearby Sandals Ochi Beach resort. That means for one price, you can enjoy the use of 28 restaurant­s, 22 whirlpools, 13 pools and 20 bars – with airport transfers, tips, taxes and gratuities included. So, all that’s left to plan is what to indulge in first.
