Sandals Resorts International will reopen four more resorts throughout October.
Beginning this week, Sandals Grenada and Sandals South Coast will welcome visitors on Oct. 1, 2020. Sandals Royal Plantation will officially open to guests on Oct. 8, followed by Beaches Turks & Caicos on Oct. 14.
The lineup will join presently opened: Sandals Grande Antigua, Sandals Montego Bay, Sandals Royal Caribbean, Sandals Negril, Sandals Grande St. Lucian, Sandals Royal Barbados, Sandals Barbados, and Sandals Regency LaToc, bringing the total to 13 luxury-included resorts open across the Caribbean.
The all-inclusive resort operator recently rolled out its health and safety measures, Sandals Platinum Protocols of Cleanliness.
“At the start of the year, travel was more accessible than ever, and as an industry, we were reporting record occupancies. Despite it all, we made a promise that when it was time to return, we would come back stronger and better than ever before,” Gordon “Butch” Stewart, chairman of Sandals Resorts, said in a statement.
“With more openings on the horizon, our optimism keeps growing and growing for the coming year.”
Sandals brings back popular sales tools for advisors
To showcase its continued support to travel advisor partners, Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts has developed several interactive sales initiatives geared to advisors.
Beginning this week and going through January 2021, Sandals Resorts will welcome back Travel Advisor FAM trips. These immersive educational experiences are complimentary for travel advisors and their guests. With this new incentive, advisors can enjoy a three-night stay at a Sandals or Beaches Resort to refresh their knowledge on the product and post engaging content on their social handles to help connect with clients and earn bookings.
Following a successful launch of its Wedding Webinar Series, “Strategies for Capturing Today’s Romance Travel Business,” the resort company is extending these in-depth webinars throughout October, every Friday at 2 pm EST.
Advisors can learn how to attract new clients and increase sales, with the help of the Sandals virtual backdrops, media assets and marketing tools. The webinar will also address the latest brand updates and protocols and provide advisors with the necessary support to grow their Sandals Customizable Wedding Business.
