Sandals Royal Plantation All Inclusive - Couples Only

My husband and I just returned from our first stay at Sandals Royal Plantation. It was truly magical. It is a boutique resort that has colonial style with beautiful mahogany furniture, gorgeous artwork and white walls. But the resort also shows off the best of modern, free Jamaica with an open breezy feel, food and entertainment that celebrate the unique modern culture and people. The landscaping, beaches, pools, restaurants and facilities are pristine and the views are breathtaking. The Papillon restaurant is elegant and evocative of Paris. But as everyone says, it is the outstanding staff and customer experience that sets the Royal Plantation apart from any resort or hotel we have stayed in around the world. All the staff remember your name and food/drink preferences. The General Manager Omar is excellent. He makes a point of getting to know each guest. We loved our Royal Monarch room and found the facilities to be perfect. Many days there is a local craft vendor near the grill. They stay there for you to visit if you wish but there is no pressure and there are no vendors accosting you on the beach. I love that the resort supports local artisans. I purchased a lovely bowl (see photo) the artist made from Blue Mahoe wood, the state tree of Jamaica. There are so many wonderful staff to recognize and I’ll try to remember them all because they deserve it! Our amazing room butlers Chase and Neil, wonderful beach butlers Trevardo, Daniello, JLee and Romane, Simone in Loyalty who is so above and beyond friendly, helpful and professional, the great servers at the Terrace and Grill Vanya, Tania, Deaundray, Jamey, Stephnie and Tyrone, our sweet and meticulous housekeeper Estina, Peter from room service who brought me coffee at 6 am, Lorna in the shop who was very helpful, evening bar server Tresell, amazing entertainers Nataki, Brenden and Alex, also the pianist in the bar who’s name I dont know, managers Rashane and Marvin, the staff at the fitness center who’s name I forgot, Trecia the spa manger who helped my husband get the right massage that cured his back pain from the flight. To top it off they brought my jacket left behind to the Ian Fleming airport. We rebooked for next January but I don’t think I can wait that long to return.

My husband and I take a yearly trip to get away from work and the stressors of daily life around my birthday. The team at Royal Plantation made this birthday incredible. Omar is amazing remembering every guests name and their celebratory reason for being there (mind you, everyone who stays here is usually celebrating something!). The food is incredible, the chef outdoes themselves every time! The teams are incredible. We were blessed to have Bebeato and Carlos. No stone went unturned for us. Our Beach butlers Danielo and Trevardo took care of us exquisitely. And we cannot say enough about the entertainment staff (Alex taught us some Jamaican moves!)and the bartenders at the WP - Javaine, Junior and Garnet were out of this world. We def. left wobbly a few times :D Anyway, we loved the place so much that we booked to come back. We usually never return to the same place because we want to check out other sites, but this place is too special not to return.

After your fourteenth trip to Sandals Royal Plantation where do you start to thank all of the fabulous people that make the resort the best place to decompress and enjoy the beautiful team of friends that we have developed over the years. Omar has the perfect venue for his team each one is absolutely perfect in every way. This team is untouchable in the standard of graciousness and respect for the guests. The breakfast team of Sharika, Tanje, Stephanie, Teana, Vonya, and of course Jamie- need to the resort but a fantastic addition to the team. That smile will make your day Lancelot has a team of talented staff that will make you never want to leave… Tyrone, Onella, Ornella, Angela, and Courtney who makes you feel like you are the most important person on the resort❤️ Brandon and Alex are just the best recreation team!! So much fun spending time with them and bearing Brandon at corn hole-haha! If I forgot someone it was not intentional- looking forward to our next trip- always the best!!Never goodbye but see you soon❤️❤️

This was our 7th visit. Every visit has been different but familiar. We consider the staff our Jamaican family. We are excited for the renovations new paint colors on the exteriors, and **** Shack to be completed in the next 6 months. Upper management Omar, Marvin, Lancelot and Chef Martin are the best! House and beach butlers make every visit special. Thank you Biggz, Alrick, Orayne, Coombs, Robert, Gladstone, Marvin, Romane,Delgado, and Trevardo. Great bartenders Collin, Garnet(crocodile) and Jr. Special thanks to Tresell who kept the drinks flowing. Our room was always nice and clean thank you Monique and refrigerator stocked thanks Christopher. The people at the front desk and the Gift shop are fun and helpful Megel was awesome. Beach and pool areas are alway clean and well kept plenty of beach towels, even with all the rain. One day the rain started pouring and we had all our beach stuff on the chairs, my husband went to go get them and the water sports had taken and put the items under cover. Everything was dry. Great people. The food servers have a special place in our hearts. We are greeted each morning and Lunch by Stephanie, Sherika, Tianna and Vayna. The evenings were special as well greeted by Nicole served by Chevron and the new trainees were super helpful. It is the people who work at this resort are the reason we continue to vacation at Royal Plantation. We love the beaches both East and West side always plenty of loungers. The pool is well maintained and nice as well as the hot tubs. The loyalty team helped us with our next reservations! Can’t wait to return!

Wonderful resort with excellent staff. Special thank you To Alrick and Adrian for making it even more special. Vanya at the Terrace and Danielo our wonderful beach butler. The views are gorgeous and everyone is so gracious . A very well worth vacation destination.

Where does one start to try and put across in words the uniqueness of this the smallest resort in the Sandals all inclusive resort chain. We enjoyed a level of attentiveness from the staff of this all butler roomed resort that set a standard unsurpassed in our experiences of comparable all inclusive resorts of this type. All guests have the added benefit of being able to enjoy a trip over to the recently opened Sandals Dunns River for an evening meal which we did at the Greek restuarant which was excellent or for a more party atmosphere the adjacent Sandals Ochi resort giving the opportunity to sample 3 different resorts in one. We have been lucky enough to have enjoyed numerous vacations to The Royal Plantation which to us is just like going to a friends house, created by the incredible warmth of all the staff who over the years have become our Jamaican family. Whether you’re a couple wanting a romantic intermit vacation or a group just wanting a fun time this boutique resort offers an experience like no other in our opinion and one we highly recommend.
