📍 The Pitons · St. Lucia · Caribbean
Charley and Kim aboard the Windstar Star Pride at the famous Piton mountains near Soufrière, St. Lucia. The Pitons are a UNESCO World Heritage Site on the southwest coast. Sandals Grande St. Lucian is on the north end of the island at Rodney Bay — a completely different and equally beautiful setting with 360-degree ocean views and calm Caribbean water. We have visited St. Lucia personally and know both ends of this island intimately.

Common Questions
Sandals FAQ — Honest Answers
Is booking Sandals through Doylestown Travel really the same price as booking direct?
Yes — exactly the same. Sandals pays agents a commission that is built into the published room rate. Whether you book on sandals.com or through Doylestown Travel, the price you see is the price you pay. The agent commission comes from Sandals, not from you. Our expertise, planning, and advocacy cost you nothing extra. Additionally, as a volume agency we monitor for price drops and promotional rates after booking and will rebook you at the lower rate if one becomes available.
Is scuba really included at all Sandals Resorts?
Yes — at all Sandals properties, scuba diving is fully included for certified divers, including equipment, tanks, and guided dives. This is one of Sandals’ most significant differentiators from competitors like Secrets where scuba is a paid add-on. Non-certified guests can take a resort course (typically a fee) to dive under supervision. The depth and quality of scuba varies by destination — Sandals LaSource Grenada and Sandals Grande St. Lucian are among the best for underwater experiences.
Are butler suites at Sandals worth the upgrade?
For a honeymoon, anniversary, or special occasion — yes, unequivocally. Butler service at Sandals is genuine and attentive. Your butler handles everything from unpacking your luggage and stocking your bar to making dining reservations and arranging excursions. The butler suite tier also gives you priority check-in, a dedicated concierge line, and premium room categories with features like private plunge pools or swim-out access. For a regular vacation where you plan to be out of the room most of the time, the upgrade is harder to justify. Call us and we’ll tell you specifically which property and tier is worth the premium for your trip.
Can Doylestown Travel book a Sandals destination wedding?
Yes. Sandals WeddingMoons is Sandals’ destination wedding program — available at all Sandals properties with on-site wedding coordinators, legal wedding packages, and a full range of ceremony options. We coordinate all guest bookings, room blocks, and wedding package details. Destination weddings at Sandals involve specific legal requirements that vary by island — having a specialist coordinate these details significantly reduces the risk of surprises. Call 888-365-3070 to discuss your destination wedding vision.
How is Sandals different from other all-inclusive resorts?
Three things separate Sandals from the all-inclusive field. First, couples-only — strictly two adults, which creates an atmosphere no family-friendly all-inclusive can replicate. Second, scope of inclusions — scuba, greens fees, waterskiing, wakeboarding, and “stay at one, play at all” access across multiple resorts in the same destination are genuinely included. No other brand matches this. Third, butler service at premium tiers — a standard that approaches five-star hotel service within an all-inclusive pricing model. The tradeoff is price: Sandals is typically the most expensive all-inclusive brand. For couples who use the inclusions, it delivers exceptional value.
