Sandals & Beaches ResortsWebsite: taportal.sandals.com/landing/

We recommend booking directly with Sandals/Beaches on their TA website. The main reason is these resorts present a hard sell to clients once onsite to book a return trip. If the trip was booked direct with Sandals/Beaches the travel agent will retain control of the new booking if the clients book a return trip. If the original trip was booked with another supplier it cannot be transfer to the travel agent.
