I'm considering in booking a reservation to Sandals in Jamaica at the end of the year. It's a all inclusive package including unlimited alcohol (til you drop). However, it's not cheap.
Anyone has any experience staying at any of the Sandals/Beaches Caribbean resorts? or perhaps a friend or family member who has gone?

Have gone to St. Lucia & Antigua. Accommodations were great, food was awesome, drinks were good & obviously plentiful.
Hotel will have plenty of free activities to keep you busy (at least they were free when I went); pool volleyball, snorkeling, dinner cruises, hobie cat... So when planning your activities, check these out as well.
Book any excursions through the hotel. They'll have vendors offering similar excursions on the side, but they are shaddy as frick.
They are all on nice beaches, but some of the resorts cannot stop vendors from walking the beaches. The one I stayed at in Antigua had people trying to sell those cheap trinkets up and down the beach. Actually saw a situation where the guy would sit on the chairs by the woman's feet to wake them up to push their trash

Been to the Sandals in the Bahamas. Had a great time, would recommend. No clue about any of their other resorts though. Bring your own straws though unless you like paper straws and request the good liquor, because they have it.
I would also check out Secrets resorts and Excellence. All very nice and same situation. I’d say Secrets was the most fun and Excellence is nicer and caters to Honeymooners/Anniversary type trips. Their thing is relaxation and romance, and we got in trouble multiple times for being too rowdy. These were all couples trips save Secrets and all were a blast.

Went to Sandals in St. Lucia for our honeymoon. Big fan of it. No tickets, no one under the age of 18, great food and plenty of booze.

If you aren't taking kids, choose Couples. No children and no singles make the unlimited alcohol that much better.

Sandals in Antigua is great.

Post/search on the travel board, tons of info.
Went to Sandals in St Lucia for our honeymoon, had a great time, drank a ton, food was good. Would recommend. However, way more ugly people than the commercials lead you to believe.
ETA: Matt Canada was in the room next to us when we went, this was a couple months after LSU had fired him. Seemed like a decent dude when I chatted with him for a bit. My CSB.

Only the premixed ones are weak, you can always ask for extra shots. Plus, when sitting at the pool bar, it doesn't matter because you are also sitting in your toilet

If you scuba dive, all scuba expenses are covered. It is probably the best bang for buck when it comes to scuba and a vacation on an island

Wife and I have been to Bahamas (Great Exuma) twice, Antigua and a couple of the Jamaican resorts. Bahamas is a smaller resort but is our favorite. Antigua was nice but we put the Jamaican resorts at the bottom. We were going every other year until the rugrats came along.
