A NEW ERA OFVacations

We’re proud to share that Sandals and Beaches Resorts and Royal Caribbean Group have signed an agreement to form a partnership in the all-inclusive resort space. This new joint venture brings together two of travel’s most celebrated companies to redefine all-inclusive vacationing in the Caribbean.

Royal Caribbean Group shares our values, our commitment to exceptional hospitality and our deep love for the Caribbean, while bringing strengths and resources that complement our own. Together, we will have greater capacity to grow Sandals and Beaches Resorts globally while staying true to what has made these brands so special. It means ideas born in the Caribbean and of the Caribbean will reach more shores in more countries, creating new possibilities for our company, our people and the communities we call home.

Sandals has always believed that the Caribbean is one of the most beautiful and inspiring places in the world. Royal Caribbean Group shares that belief, along with our commitment to creating vacations that bring people closer together. By combining Sandals’ deep Caribbean roots and all-inclusive resort expertise with Royal Caribbean Group’s global reach, innovation, and vacation experience, we can dream bigger for our guests, invest further in our people, and introduce more travelers to more places around the world.

Sandals will remain unmistakably Sandals, and Beaches will also continue to be the beloved family-focused brand our guests know and love. The Caribbean warmth, genuine hospitality, beautiful settings, and personal service that define our brands are at the heart of this partnership. The goal is to build on that experience—not replace it.

It means even more possibilities. Over time, the partnership will create new destinations, enhanced resort experiences, innovative vacation offerings, and seamless ways to experience more of the Caribbean. Guests may also see exciting opportunities that bring together the best of resort and cruise travel. We will develop these possibilities thoughtfully, always guided by what our guests value most.

You can continue earning points, enjoying your membership and making the most of the benefits you love, just as you do today. Your existing points and earned benefits remain unchanged, so there’s nothing you need to do. We’re incredibly excited about the future of Island Insiders and look forward to continuing to reward you for every unforgettable Sandals and Beaches vacation.

We’re excited about what could take shape and what it could mean for our guests. Our ambition is to make loyalty even more rewarding, with more possibilities for wherever they want to go next. Following completion of the transaction, we look forward to exploring ways to connect the two programs over time, opening up opportunities for new benefits and travel experiences while keeping each program distinct to the brands our customers love. It’s early days, and we’ll share more as those possibilities develop.

Absolutely. Our resort teams remain at the heart of the Sandals experience, ready to welcome you with the warmth, care, and personal service that make every stay so special. Their focus is what it has always been: creating unforgettable moments for our guests, caring for every detail, and sharing the genuine Caribbean hospitality that makes Sandals feel like your home away from home.

Your upcoming vacation is all set and will continue just as planned. Everything from your resort, accommodations, travel dates, rate, payments, and included benefits remains exactly the same. You can simply keep looking forward to your time in the Caribbean. Our resort teams are ready to welcome you with the warmth, care, and personal touches that make a Sandals vacation so special.
