Beautiful location, lots of fun areas to enjoy from cozy seating, hammocks, beach and pool!
One pool I referred to as the party pool was fun for entertainment but a bit too crazy sometimes! But you could escape to a quiet pool and the secret pool! Food was awesome, with many options to choose from. The people who we met there were great! Very friendly.
Views were stunning. I would say be careful of the sun! Being closer to the equator you can burn so quickly! We saw some very red people! 🫣
The gym was well equipped and clean too. 10/10

Dates: end of October
Weather: HOT; while not in hurricane belt, temp increases when hurricanes are around
Overall: 4/5
Atmosphere: 4/5; recently renovated, beautiful resort but not enough shade available. One beach is not swim-able, other is an inlet. Great area for snorkeling!
Food: 3/5; seemed to be out of a lot of items, food and drinks at almost every bar/restaurant
Service: 3/5; staff was not friendly, seemed to be overworked and there were waits EVERYWHERE
A few call outs: Snorkeling trips from water center were fantastic especially the 5 minute boat trip to see the tugboat and fish there. Kenny, Chris and captain Mitchel were fantastic! This is by far the best snorkeling we’ve had at any sandals experience
Our housekeeper, Patricia was phenomenal and went above and beyond the whole trip!
I know it’s a newer resort… the items I rated lower can definitely be turned around. I’d just recommend senior leadership digging into reasons for lack of inventory and waiting/short staff. Has the potential to be one of the best sandals locations.

Sandals Royal Curaçao was a great experience. Butches and Vincent were definitely the best dining experiences. The water was beautiful the pool was amazing. The service was hit or miss in many spots, not many people clearly enjoy their work but just do it tour of obligation which is definitely noticeable in how they treat or ignore you. We had some great restaurant managers take care of us, that were very passionate about what they do.

My husband and I went to Sandals for our one year anniversary and here are our thoughts!
Airport arrival: The Sandals desk at the airport was large and they were very welcoming! The transportation to the resort was spacious and well-air-conditioned.
Check-In: The Club Sandals check-in was seamless. We were welcomed into the Club Sandals lounge and they called our names individually. We had someone privately walk us to our room, show us the resort and where things were in the room.
Room: Although we didn’t get our first-choice room, our assigned one had a better location, in our opinion (closer to restaurants and pool instead of the beach). Sandals also compensated us for the unexpected room change.
Pools & Beach: The pool was fantastic! We enjoyed that there wasn't an open or close time for the pool so we would often go down and night swim in the lit up pool. The beach was smaller than expected; if you’re looking for a large beach, you might be disappointed.
Service: Generally good, but poolside service was limited to butler suite guests. Other guests had to go to the swim-up bar, which had only 1-2 bartenders so it would take awhile to get a drink. People were very friendly and always willing to help.
Food: Above-average resort food. The variety of restaurants was great, and most didn’t require reservations, except for two (which we missed due to dress code, men make sure to bring LONG pants!). We appreciated the option of sit-down breakfast restaurants instead of just a buffet. Room service wasn’t very good, so we used it only a couple of times.
Excursions: We had an amazing excursion, which included swimming with sea turtles, exploring caves, and wild flamingo sightings. Our tour guide was fantastic and informative. We also went golfing on the course right next to the resort (walking distance). It was $145, which included club rental, a cart and rider—a great value for an ocean-side course. We regret not booking the shopping excursion with the resort ($50 pp) since taxi costs were much higher ($100-200).
Atmosphere: The resort was very laid-back and catered more to an older crowd. If you’re looking for nightlife or lively entertainment, this may not be the place for you. However, the relaxed vibe suited us perfectly!
Overall, we loved our stay and would highly recommend it for those seeking a low-key, relaxing getaway!

Nice hotel, great staff and food choices. No real Caribbean beach if that is what you're wanting for your experience. It is some water in an inlet cutoff by a dock. More like a lake honestly. Pools were amazing, however I just don't expect to go to the islands to be at the pool all day, prefer the beach experience. A couple of cool island excursions available.
