Book Sandy Bay hotels

I’ll start by saying we loved our stay here and would recommend it to friends and family. We had breakfast included and it was delicious. Excellent variety. I’m very glad we did not do all-inclusive because there are so many restaurants around to try and it’s fun to get off the property and explore other spots. Be cautious choosing your room on travel sites. The room description for the same room was different on Expedia’s site vs the resorts website so we thought we had paid for and were getting beach view and instead we were put at the very back end of the resort with a view of the parking lot. Fortunately, there were lots of trees and birds to see, but this was disappointing. We got certified at the dive shop on site, and were pleased with that experience. We were lucky to get an excellent instructor. The beach is wonderful. It’s pretty amazing to see all those people working so hard to clear up the sargassum from the beach. We were grateful for their efforts. Throw towels on your chairs early! They get ‘reserved’ pretty quickly. The pool is perfect. The hot tub was so nice, very popular though so sometimes hard to get a spot. There is a sign right beside it that says no children but parents were letting their young kids play in it all day and staff didn’t stop it. That would be my only pet peeve to report. They do need to get proper first aid kits by the pool and in the lobby. In a nutshell: Beautiful place, kind people, and lots to do!

We did not take breakfast. Breakfast Buffet is very expensive,$40 dollars for person.

We had a great stay overall. The hotel is located right in the main tourist area, close to everything and surrounded by other hotels, which is very convenient. The beach is absolutely beautiful, and we were lucky as there was almost no seaweed during our stay. Only one day, right before we left, a lot of sargassum washed in. We were barefoot most of the time since there’s sand everywhere, which adds to the relaxed, laid-back vibe. The dive center is excellent — very friendly and they take great care of you. We had an amazing diving experience with them. Breakfast is okay, nothing special. The beach restaurant is very good, although a bit pricey — but that’s expected in a very touristy area. We truly enjoyed the experience and would definitely come back.

I liket alot was good place stay i recommended.

We absolutely enjoyed our time at the Jolly Octopus!!! The snorkeling and sunsets were amazing. Lodging had everything we needed. Water pressure not so great but a/c worked well and the bed was very comfortable. Definitely would stay here again!!

Unbelievable experience! Bungalows over the water are amazing, The staff is friendly and accommodating. We are foodies and everything was absolutely delicious. A totally relaxing vacation. There was no stress booking activities. You can do as much or as little as you want. Snorkeling even right off the resort is world class. Swimming with a baby dolphin unforgettable. Night snorkeling, island party on Wed evening - do not miss. Highly recommend resort. We will be back.
