This couples-only resort has a chic design, excellent dining and superb swimming pools.
Head down to south-coast Maxwell Beach and you’ll find the younger sister to neighbouring Sandals Barbados. It follows the same Luxury Included® concept, with exceptional service and an incredible range of facilities and watersports, but also has some particularly impressive features. The sleek, white-washed design is punctuated with Mediterranean-style terracotta roofs and thatched rondoval cottages, and there’s a glass-fronted infinity pool which cascades down towards the beach, framed by futuristic, pyramid-shaped cabanas. Take a break from sunbathing at Sandals’ first four-lane bowling alley, grab a drink from the adjacent Lover’s Lane Bar and unwind in the rooftop pool as the sun sets over Oistins Bay.
Why we love Sandals Royal Barbados
-
There’s an impressive range of included activities, from bowling to kayaking, hobie cat sailing to glass bottom boat trips, plus daily live entertainment.
-
It’s great for diving; guests with PADI or SSI certification get two free dives per day, and there are courses available for beginners through to advanced.
-
There’s a huge choice on the culinary front, with 9 restaurants and 6 bars on site, and guests can also eat at Sandals Barbados next door for no extra cost (offering a further 11 restaurants).
-
As with all Sandals resorts, unlimited premium liquors and Robert Mondavi Twin Oaks wines are included, as well as stocked bars in every room.
Rooms
Featuring custom crafted furnishings and sleek, airy décor splashed with seaside colour, the resort’s 338 suites are spread across three areas – the Royal Seaside Village is edged by the white-sand beach, the Rondoval Suites are in the middle of the resort and the South Seas Village sits at the other end. The South Seas Hideaway Suites feature special tranquility beds and aromatherapy systems for the ultimate in relaxation, while the Swim-Up suites offer direct access to the Crystal Lagoon pool. They’re all either Club Level or Butler Suite; the first include private check-in, all-day room service and access to the Club Sandals Lounge, while Butler Suite rooms include added extras – among them a personal butler, 24-hour room service and VIP check-in. Go all out and choose one of the beachfront rooms – the Beachfront One Bedroom Skypool Butler Suite with Balcony Tranquility Soaking Tub has a private infinity-edge skypool with breathtaking views over the ocean. If you’re willing to sacrifice the sea view, the South Seas Royal Rondoval Butler Suite with Private Pool Sanctuary also comes with its own private plunge pool.
Facilities
With nine restaurants and six bars, there’s an excellent choice on the food front here, and you'll have access to a further 11 dining venues at Sandals Barbados next door under the brand’s ‘Stay at One, Play at All’ programme. Visit Chi Asian Fusion to experience the flavours of China, Japan, Thailand and beyond in one, and don’t miss the resort’s two wellness-focused eateries for a mind-and-body pick-me-up.
American Tavern
From New England Clam Chowder to Maryland Crab Cakes, this US-inspired tavern brings regional comfort foods from across the country together into one tantalising menu.
Chi
Tuck into the likes of Boxed Yellow Tail, Firecracker Shrimp and Kung Pao Chicken in elaborate surroundings at this delightful Asian-Fusion restaurant.
La Parisienne
Dine al fresco on French classics at this chic spot, serving the likes of soupe à l’oignon, cordon bleu and mille feuilles against a backdrop of sparkling sea.
Butch's Steak & Seafood
Enjoy superb steaks and seafood accompanied by indulgent sides and sauces at this decadent steakhouse.
Neptunes
From Greek ceviche to grilled mahi mahi, this outdoor Mediterranean-themed spot specialises in fresh seafood dishes with a side of idyllic ocean view.
Jerk Shack

The Greenhouse
Serving farm-to-table dishes using local produce, this contemporary-design spot serves a variety of healthy dishes, from sustainable steam-roasted snapper to plant-based coconut curry.
Heart & Sol
Pick up a sandwich or salad at this New York-style deli, focused on the clean-eating concept with locally-sourced, farm-to-table fruit and vegetables at the heart.
Sweet n' Salty's Gourmet Donuts & Coffee
Decadent doughnuts – from s’mores to white chocolate maple bacon – are the name of the game at this indulgent grab-and-go shop.
For its farm-to-table cuisine and chic, modern setting, we love The Greenhouse.
