Sandals Barbados vs. Sandals Royal Barbados was going to be my original CZcams title for this video, but I think you can enjoy both Sandals resorts for one price after staying here for almost a week. Like some other Sandals Resorts there are multiple resorts. I like to say you can stay at one and play at many Sandals, and Sandals Royal Barbados and Sandals Barbados, lets you enjoy the amenities of both all inclusive Caribbean resorts. These resorts are so close I often found myself forgetting which Sandals resort I was at. Just a 15 minute ride from the airport both resort are just about 8 feet apart and you will find yourself exploring the resort as if it’s just one large resort property. Frankly I think it should just be renamed and sold as one Sandals resort.
The resort is very clean, updated, and has the most European vibe of the Sandals resorts I have been to. About 60% UK guests and 40% US guests. From talking with several of the guests on property I think the UK guests prefer the Sandals Barbados side with the gardens and quite pool areas, where the US guests like the Sandals Royal Barbados side with the more lively pool. I say book whatever experience and budget you are comfortable with as both resorts are very nice. I stayed at and also toured almost every room at both Sandals resorts here in Barbados and am happy to answer any questions you have and also help you book your Sandals vacation at no additional cost.
Great video! We were supposed to go to the sandals is Saint Lucia this week for our honeymoon but our flights got canceled due to the hurricane that was passing through. The only other option our agent found was the butler suite at sandals Barbados! Can’t wait and your video got me and my wife even more excited.👍
Love the Saint Lucia one but the 2 hour ride from the airport is horrible. Look into taking the helicopter which is only a 10-15 flight. We had friends that did it and it’s well worth the extra $150.
@@briangrasso5174 thanks for the reply brian me and my wife are here now. We absolutely love it and Barbados is such a beautiful island. Everybody is so nice. I don’t have any other status so I can base that off the other resorts but I think you will have a great time here.
@@patrickkiel6234It was meant to be Patrick, we are extremely excited for Barbados. Visit and book another trip while you are there, it’s cheaper booking on a Sandals property and you can always postpone it. We are meeting friends in Barbados we made from our last trip at Sandals Curacao. Have fun buddy!!
Thanks for the info heading there over laborday .Great info !!!
Glad it was helpful! :)
Nice video. Thank you we will be there in 12 more days on the Royal Side in the same unit as the Sky Pool Bar and La Parisian in a Penthouse Crystal Lagoon Ocean View Butler Suite. We have 6 other Sandals travel friends joining us We met them all in Sandals pools over the last 8 years and now we Sandals together. We will be there 10 Celebrating our 5th Anniversary. We’re both 71 and usually Sandals in Negril. Hope we can see and do it all. Negril and Royal Caribbean Montego Bay are both small and easy to maneuver, so this will be very different for us. ❤🎉😊
Hi Mary, you will have 4, make that 5 with the sky pool, main pools here all with different vibes. Some are swim up bars, some on the beach and some tucked away. Oh and warm bath temp pools too. It’s perfect for your anniversary ❤️. I was at Negril literally a week before Sandals Barbados. I still need to make that video, but Sandals Barbados is so much different than Sandals Negril or Sandals Royal Caribbean. You are in a great location at Sandals Royal Barbados. You are close to the main area and the main feature pool and beach too with your room. Oh and the sky pool is nice if you all want your own pool area with your friends too. Great sunsets too from up there. The most difficult thing for me vs Sandals Negril and Royal Caribbean is navigating both Barbados resorts. The resorts are large and some areas are a challenge to find or seem to have just one odd way to get to them. Negril you just walk left or right along the beach and everything is there. Barbados is tropical jungle paths which is beautiful but takes you a while to find things. It’s beautiful, clean, feels new. I feel like I am over using the word beautiful. Let me know what you think, oh and depending on where you are flying from the flight compared to Negril feels longer. Well it is longer but it feels much longer than Negril and American has no in flight entertainment screens but you can connect your device to movies, etc. or try and sleep. Have an amazing time. Steve 😀❤️😀
thanks for the video
You bet! :)
staying here in a couple weeks for our honeymoon!! can’t wait 😊
I appreciate the video very much. My wife and I will be there for our anniversary in August.
Happy Anniversary 😀😀😀 have the best time !!!!
Thank you for this great video. Will be there in 2 weeks and very excited.
@marlikwatson4724. OMG have a fantastic time!!!! :)
How was it?
I hope you get to go to Sandals St. Vincent soon… anxiously waiting to see any type of long form videos on that one but none so far😅
Hi @cygnetlake8017. Yes I should be there in about two weeks :)
@@GrizAllInclusive OMG are you serious?!!!!! YESSSSSSSS I'll be the first to share that video lol :))))))))
I’m stuck on deciding between Barbados or emerald bay! Both have great options!
@coop4440 You can't go wrong. Emerald Bay is closer travel time if you are coming from the US. Barbados has more going on and you have two resorts literally connected to each other. I loved both
Thoughts on our 19 and 23 year old sons traveling here with us? We know we have to book 2 rooms-
Going to the Barbados Royale in October, we are meeting friends we made from Sandals Curacao. This will be our 8th Sandals. Grenada was our best but I’m thinking this Barbados one is going to be the best ever. Short 15 min ride from the airport too, not like the 2 hour drive for Saint Lucia🙄. Saint Lucia was really nice though.
That's awesome @briangrasso5174. Let me know what you think on Royal Barbados. I am heading to Sandals Curacao to make a video in about a week or so, so watch for that one soon. :). Yeah the short drives are nice. I also died on the two hour plus drive back from Sandals South Coast after drinking so much at breakfast (Smoothies, coffee, water) and then no stops on the bumpy ride to the airport. :)
@@GrizAllInclusive We went to Curacao last November. Infiniti pools are great and as usual made a lot of new friends. We are actually going to Royal Barbados with a couple we met at Curacao. Grenada was our best Sandals but I really think Royal Barbados is going to top it from the videos we are watching.
Very well done. Your delivery and speech cadence is very soothing. Best tour I’ve ever watched. I’m going there in July for 25th wedding anniversary and going with another couple also on their 25th. Do you have any pointers or tricks of the trade we should go for. Ages 46-51 and we still love a good time. Thank you again
Hey @benderprofessionalservice9018. Have an awesome trip to Sandals in July.
Tips:
1. I would bring an old book or two and when you get up early to get your favorite beach chair toss that old book on the chair to hold it.
2. Plan your dining out so you know what is open on which days when you arrive and then get with your butler or concierge team to book those dinners when you are there.
3. There are a few negative reviews in the comment section here from recent trips to Sandals Barbados related to service and staffing. If you have an issue please meet with the front desk manager or GM of the resort to get it resolved while you are there, not after you leave. Hopefully everything is great but if it is not speak up to the management team while onsite at Sandals.
:) Steve
@@GrizAllInclusive thank you. Yes I just saw those comments. Definitely will take you advice. Gonna rewatch your video to make a mental note of where the hidden spots are you mentioned. Tku
What camera do you use, awesome quality!
Hey @mileslawson7867. for this video I changes to a new camera set up. I use to use. very nice Sony A7C camera, Gimbal, etc and that set up was massive and heavy. For this video I switched to a small DJI Osmo pocket 3. It's so small and still has great quality. Have an awesome day!
Is this Catalonia royal hotel? In xpu ha? Going in two weeks!
❤❤❤❤❤
I’m staying at sandals Royal Barbados in. October for my 30th birthday. Do they have parties or themed nights?
That's going to be an amazing 30th BDay :). Yes they do have nightly entertainment and also there is a piano bar open late, Karaoke we did that one night in Lovers Lane, Bowling, DJ, etc. Watch out for the rum punch at the swim up bar, wow that caught me off guard quick. Let me know how your vacation is. Have fun!
Hi there, which side dod you prefer ? Reviews look better for Royal side ❤
@janesdresser8843. I stayed on the Royal side but found myself on the Barbados side most of the time. I would stay at either. It's really just one large resort and I don't even know why they break it up into two. :)
I think I would go to the Barbados side as it seems more peaceful. Love you video you have such a calming voice & no background music which can ruin it. Absolutely brilliant ❤
Show us the food and the rooms,where are the people
@Bunchy771. I'll put together another video of the different rooms. With this being two resorts in one it can be full but even then with so much to do you really don't run into a bunch of people. I did film this at like 7 AM so not to many people out yet. :)
Warning to anyone watching this video, do not go to this sandals property. The service by staff is subpar compared to other sandal locations. I’m still here at royal after 4 nights and I can’t wait to go home tomorrow. Very understaffed, butler service was not elite, bars constantly missing main ingredients to popular drinks, towels are no where to be found at the infinity pool nor both beach areas. People look visibly upset throughout the property. Again this is warning from someone who watches YT reviews and have been in multiple butler suite level rooms at other sandal properties.
That sounds horrible @Andydatank. If you are still there, get with the GM ASAP so they can address this.
I was there 2 weeks ago. I agree this property was horrible. Bad food. Always out of stuff. Constantly got our orders wrong. OUR walkout lagoon suite had no wifi except for 2 days of out 7 night stay. TV worked only 2 nights. Our phone was never working so we couldn't order room service. People above us were partying all night and speaking about their private parts. First 2 nights of our stay we got NO sleep. Had to miss our paid excursion as it would be unsafe to go snorkel all day on no sleep in the ocean. Then we got berated by the travel excursion lady for canceling as we were sitting at our royal barbados concierge desk discussing our concerns about our safety for that excursion with no sleep. The door to our room had a high clearance and you could see people walking by. Which also means u can hear everyone's discussions, the heat and humidity plummets into the room and allows the singing night frogs to hop right in. Yes we had frogs coming into our room in middle of the night. Yet concierge never fixed the door to stop this. Can't say we enjoyed our vacation. We were quite miserable and exhausted. For the price we paid, we expected better service. People everywhere were complaining about the food. IT was the same everywhere u went. Meat was consistently overlooked or undercooked. Employees were not looking happy Here. People also complained about the property and nearly all the fountains weren't working. The main pools were green and looked disgusting to swim in. Which is why we stayed at our royal barbados lagoon pool. Luckily it was kept clean. I could go on about more issues. But simply will not recommend this resort. It was a HUGE let down and a waste of our money and time.
@@hawaiibound62 Yikes! Thanks for sharing this. Wow I hope they make updates and correct all this going forward. So sad to hear all the issues. We just got back from Sandals St Vincent and it was amazing. I'll defiantly have to look at my 2025 Sandals Resort reviews articles and recommendations because so many other Sandals have great staff.
@@GrizAllInclusive I hope they make some changes. The staff can really make or break the experience.
