Sandals is a delightful collection of 10 resorts. This chain of all-inclusives has been voted World's Best for eight years in a row by The Travel Agents Worldwide.

I can't vouch for all of them, but I've been to Sandals Antigua as well as Montego Bay, and both locations offer a wide range of restaurants, activities, free-flowing wine, beer and mixed drinks.

Since everything has been paid for before you arrive, theres no reason to reach for your billfold, and no worry about tipping.

Built in 1951 and upgraded twice, the Montego Bay location is the flagship of the Sandals Resorts.It boasts 5 restaurants and 5 bars, 4 swimming pools, 4 whirlpools, tennis, watersking, kayaks, glass bottom boat rides, aqua trikes, pedal boats, windsurfing, snorkeling, sunfish sailing, scuba with instruction, Hobie Cats, exercise room and sauna, nightly entertainment, piano bar and disco. The beach is gorgeous too! 1700' of white sand!

If you choose one of the three locations in Jamaica, you can hop a shuttle bus and enjoy the amenities of all three resorts. As Sandals web site proclaims, "Stay at One; Play at Three!"
