Sandals Negril Resort

Negril, Jamaica

Where you can check the most beautiful sunset in the world.

What are some of the most romantic things you can think of? A chocolate box says a lot, sure. A bouquet of roses is always a sign that you care about someone. What about sharing a beautiful sunset with someone you want to spend your time with? Well, our scientists here at Famvia gave this one a 10/10 on the romance scale, and you know what? Sandals Negril has one of the best sunsets in the world, making this one a great place to stay with the love of your life.

Sandals Negril occupies a special position on Jamaica's western coast, offering guests access to the world-renowned Seven Mile Beach while maintaining its reputation as one of the most affordable Sandals properties you can find. So not only do you get access to a great beach and amazing photo opportunities (thank you, sun), but you also do not need to spend a whole lot for a room at Sandals Negril.

Opening its doors in 1988, Sandals Negril naturally displays some characteristics of its nearly 40 year history. This is one of the first ever Sandals resorts, losing the race only to Sandals Montego Bay, which launched in 1981. Sandals Negril has a simple horizontal layout that has lasted four decades, but it did get some modern touches throughout the years.

New Butler Suites and Club Level rooms were introduced, and Sandals Negril also received two brand new restaurants, the Latin Perla and Brava, which specializes in Spanish tapas. There are eight dining options in total waiting for you, including Barefoot by the Sea, giving you the option to enjoy a beautiful sunset while having a Piña Colada in hand. Now that does sound good.

The Seven Mile Beach is one of the main strengths of Sandals Negril. This is the kind of beach you usually see on the Internet only, with white sand and crystal-clear water that is perfect for snorkeling. Though the beach is public and vendors will end up wanting to sell you different services, this minor inconvenience pales in comparison to enjoying one of the Caribbean's best beaches.

Another excellent bonus is that by staying at Sandals Negril, you have free access to the nearby Beaches Negril, located just four minutes away. You can go there to enjoy restaurants, the water park and beach facilities, effectively expanding dining options to include fan favorites like Soy Sushi Bar and Yaku that are not available at Sandals Negril.

To have the pleasure of watching that beautiful sunset, you do need to travel a long road. The resort's main drawback is its 90-minute transfer from Sangster International Airport, which is never fun after a long flight. Fortunately, the roads are relatively smooth without too many bumps, so you can keep your camera ready to take pictures of Jamaica while you are on a road trip.

Sandals Negril is all-inclusive and adults only, meaning that you come here to relax and enjoy drinks and food without worrying about spending anything extra. This is an excellent resort in Jamaica and one of the most popular Sandals properties in the world. It has a great beach, a beautiful sunset and it ranks among some of the most affordable Sandals you can find. Come here, relax, and make sure to save space on your phone for all the amazing pictures.
