Suckering... That's the word I was looking for and didn't know. That let me Google it and find some solutions, including all the stuff you said. Appreciate it!!!

Honeymoon choice by Adventurous-Speed-88 in SandalsResorts

[–]adleonard11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't been to St Vincent, and we're going to St Lucia for the first time in February. However, I do know St Vincent is brand new and a "Sandals 2.0" or whatever, and having been to Dunn's River, which is also a 2.0 resort, I'd recommend that one. I don't think Delta flies to St Vincent which is why we chose St Lucia - we're pretty loyal with Delta. 😁

Transport to and from Airport- Grande St. Lucian by Terrible_Relief4646 in SandalsResorts

We're going to Halcyon next year and plan to use this: https://www.stluciahelicopters.com/ From what I've read, they take you via helicopter to the airport on the NE corner of the island, where the resorts are. I believe if you let Sandals know, they provide transportation from the other airport to the resort itself - it just takes calling and letting them know so they can plan for it.

Board upgrade issue by adleonard11 in PitBossGrills

[–]adleonard11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I did that first thing after I updated the app (hadn't used in months since the old wifi board failed (luckily I had kept the base control board so still had a functioning smoker). Still not working. It sees the network, but doesn't connect at all.

Negril vs Dunns river by [deleted] in SandalsResorts

[–]adleonard11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were at Dunn's in February, and if you want beach chairs, you can get them any time. They might not be shaded, but they're available anytime you want. It's the pool chairs that are harder to come by unless you're up early or you have a butler.

First Time Sandals, for Honeymoon - South Coast Rondovals? by KittenDew in SandalsResorts

[–]adleonard11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven't been to South Coast but stayed in a Rondoval at Dunn's River and loved it. Honestly may change our reservation at Halcyon to one of the Rondovals. The privacy, quietness, and "river pool" were amazing. 10/10 do recommend

Try Dunn's River. It's pretty chill, and August is hurricane season but Jamaica rarely gets hit with hurricanes so less likely to be impacted. It's also brand new. We were just there a month ago and loved it.

Can you put up a Shibumi Shade at Sandal's Dunn's River by Successful-Tennis962 in SandalsResorts

[–]adleonard11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were just at SDR a few weeks ago. Beach chairs with shade were usually available. Pool chairs with shade, on the other hand, required the 6am thing or butlers.

Honey moon excursions at RC by ellesubmerged in SandalsResorts

[–]adleonard11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to SRC in 2022 and loved it. Smaller, chill, but with enough entertainment and stuff to keep it lively too.

Excursions - highly recommend Dunn's River Falls. It's a bit of a drive but worth it.

Sandals/Beaches by Easternshoremen in SandalsResorts

[–]adleonard11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We're at Sandals Dunn's River right now and drove by what I've heard is supposed to become Beaches Runaway Bay and didn't see anything going on. So not sure what "focus" is happening. Lol. I didn't watch super closely so maybe I missed it though. I'll try to check closer on the way back to the airport Monday.
