This is one of the great-granddaddies of all-inclusive resorts, with no less than five restaurants, four bars (including a swim-up, natch) and more activities than a summer camp. The resort beach is beautiful, the plantation-style furnishing is quite tasteful and guests get free access to Sandals’ other Jamaican properties. It's just a few miles past Sangster International Airport.
