I want to talk to you today about a place that feels like exhaling — Sandals Negril and Beaches Negril. If you’ve been carrying stress, or you’re craving sunshine, peace, laughter, and luxury without having to think too hard… Negril is calling your name.
And yes, after the 2025 hurricane, people have been asking, “How are the resorts doing?”
Here’s the truth: they’re doing beautifully.

Sandals and Beaches Negril experienced mostly cosmetic damage — downed trees, landscaping loss, some outdoor cleanup — but the buildings, rooms, restaurants, pools, and core amenities remained solid. Their teams worked day and night, and the properties have fully reopened, refreshed, strong, and ready for guests. Jamaica is resilient, and these resorts came back with even more warmth, heart, and purpose.
Now let’s talk about why YOU might need to be there.
Unlimited Water Sports That Meet You Where You Are
One thing I love about Negril is that you can be as calm or as adventurous as you want.
For the adventure side of you:
My first time paddleboarding at Beaches Negril
-
Scuba diving (included!)
-
Snorkeling over the reefs
-
Wakeboarding, tubing, kneeboarding
-
Paddleboarding and kayaking
-
Windsurfing
-
Sailing and Hobie Cats
-
Glass-bottom boat rides
-
And yes… those big colorful aquatrikes
All included. No surprise charges. No “add-ons.” Just pure Caribbean fun.
For the peaceful side of you:
-
Floating in that calm turquoise water
-
Early morning paddleboarding while the sea is still
-
Quiet swims at sunrise
-
Gentle waves setting your whole nervous system at ease

It’s a reset button for your body and your mind.
Food That Feels Like a Vacation All By Itself
Both Sandals Negril and Beaches Negril have amazing dining, but Sandals really shines with its mix of cozy, elegant, and toes-in-the-sand restaurants.
Some favorites you’ll love:
 |
| Dinner, breakfast or lunch with a view |
-
Fresh seafood right on the beach
-
Caribbean jerk dishes with that irresistible smoky flavor
-
Brick-oven pizza under the palm trees
-
Italian favorites with ocean views
-
Teppanyaki dinners full of laughter and connection
Plus the bars — swim-up bars, beach bars, lounges, and your own in-room minibar. It feels like ease. It feels like luxury without being stuffy. It feels like someone finally said, “Relax, we’ve got you.”
Luxury Relaxation for Any Season of Life
If it’s you and your girls:
Sandals Negril is effortless. Beach hammocks, quiet nooks to nap, butler suites if you want them, and that laid-back Negril vibe that whispers, “You’re safe here. Rest.”

| Can you say lazy river? Yes please. |
If you’re taking the family:
Beaches Negril is the place.
Waterslides, lazy river, splash park, endless activities for kids and teens — and still that classic Negril beauty for you. The whole family feels seen and cared for.
Travel That Helps Jamaica Heal
Choosing to visit Negril this season isn’t just about treating yourself — though you absolutely deserve that. It also supports resort staff, local families, and the Jamaican tourism economy as they continue rebuilding after the storm. Your presence helps. Your visit matters.
My Personal Invitation to You
Picture this…
You step off the plane and the warm air wraps around you. You’re driven along the coastline, past palm trees and pastel buildings, until you reach a place where the ocean is a color so blue it looks unreal.
You drop your bags in your room, walk straight to the beach, and let the water roll over your feet. And for the first time in a long time… you breathe.
Whether it’s with your girlfriends, your family, or just you needing space to recharge — Negril is the kind of place that meets you right where you are and reminds you you’re still held, still called to joy, still allowed to live wildly and beautifully.
If you want help planning a girls’ getaway or a family vacation to either Sandals Negril or Beaches Negril, I’m here — and this is the kind of travel planning I love. Just tell me what you’re thinking, and we’ll build something beautiful together.
If you want, I can also create a perfect 3-night or 5-night sample itinerary for either resort — just say the word. mspanostravels@gmail.com
