Should You Use a Sandals Travel Agent?
When it comes to booking your trip to a Sandals all-inclusive adults-only resort, you may be wondering if it’s best to handle everything yourself or use a Sandals travel agent.
We’ll give you all the info you need to know about Sandals travel agents so you can decide which is right for you.
What Is a Sandals Travel Agent?
A Sandals travel agent is a professional travel advisor who specializes in Sandals resorts. The most experienced of these are Certified Sandals Specialists, who have undergone a training program with Sandals and keep up to date on the latest information about all of the resorts.
Sandals Travel Agent Benefits
One of the biggest benefits to using a travel agent for your Sandals vacation is that they can help guide you through all the decisions you’ll need to make. There are so many Sandals locations, and they are all different. Plus, each one has dozens of room categories; choosing the best one can be overwhelming.
Many Sandals travel specialists have been to the resorts themselves and can give you detailed information that you can’t find on the internet, including whether renovations are happening as well as personal recommendations about rooms, restaurants, and activities.
We are Certified Sandals Specialists, and we have visited every one of the Sandals resorts—some of them multiple times. We can help you figure out which Sandals will deliver the experience that you’re looking for, whether you’re planning a quick getaway or a honeymoon, looking for a secluded and peaceful escape or wanting a fun-filled and active vacation.
We can also advise you on room types and locations to make sure you pick the one that will make you happiest. Choosing the wrong room can really mess up a Sandals vacation, and it’s hard to know what a room will be like unless you’ve been to the resort. We’ve made a point of visiting as many rooms as possible so we can give the best advice.
We will also tell you all about the restaurants and bars at the resort you choose, including our favorite menu items and cocktails, and give you special tips to make your stay as wonderful as possible.
Another area we can give you advice is about the excursions that are available. Since these cost extra, you want to make sure you have a good time. We’ve gone on multiple excursions at the different resorts and can give you our recommendations.
With all this info and guidance, using a Sandals travel agent can save you a lot of time and stress.
Sandals travel agents can also make sure you get the best possible price. While we don’t have access to lower rates than you’ll find on the Sandals website, we do know all about the various Sandals promotions and deals, and we constantly monitor sales. If the room you’ve booked goes on sale or a special promotion comes up that applies to you, we can rebook your room to save you money.
Another benefit of using a Sandals travel agent is that we can help resolve issues that come up during your trip, whether it’s flight delays or difficulties at the resort. We will keep an eye on the weather and stand ready to help with anything you need.
We can also help you with special requests. We are able to work with the resort staff and make sure that whatever you want—whether it’s flowers in the room or a special romantic surprise or a private dinner on the beach at sunset—is handled so you don’t have to worry.
When You Don’t Need a Sandals Travel Agent
If you have been to Sandals resorts before and are familiar with where you want to go, what sort of room type you want, and how to make all your travel arrangements, you probably don’t need a Sandals travel agent.
However, it might be worth your while to check with one just in case. They may be able to get you some extra perks, or give you inside information that can help elevate your experience.
