Downgrade offer with no reduction in cost
JamesH9991 (Stroud, United Kingdom) on Nov 20, 2025
Not necessarily reflective of this resort, more Sandals practices when booking from the UK. We were booked for Apr 26, understandably the resort is closed due to the Hurricane. When looking to rebook, the options presented to me were restricted to lower value options, some in the region of £2000 less if booked today, with no offer of a partial refund. It's just a holiday at the end of the day, the people on the island have lost alot more, but if Sandals want to retain customers from the UK, dont offer a downgrade as an alternative, it's not a good look.
Sandels hurricane screwing
max M on Nov 17, 2025
Paid a $2400.00 deposit through AAA in Portland Maine. Resort closed now due to Hurrican. We get $199.00 back and an airline credit of $1600.00 we have to use by May 2026. We lose $600.00 and just get an credit for $1600.00 we somehow have to use. Feels like a giant screwing. Won't be using them again.
