Amazing sightseeing and relaxation on the Caribbean island

So with a packed itinerary ahead, we were very happy to have our first couple of days simply relaxing at Sandals - and what a place to chill. Everything as you might guess is spectacular, with amazing vistas and landscaping, perfectly manicured lawns, and white, crystalline sand oozing through your toes on the hotel's Pink Gin beach - yes, it's just as pretty as it sounds.

of course, not forgetting the beautiful rooms, elegantly-decorated bars and restaurants, first-rate facilities and the ever-present staff eager to make your holiday the best experience possible.

We were lodged in an Italian Bi-Level Butler Suite and, unaccustomed to being waited on, we were initially a little apprehensive of the b-word (butler, not bi-level) but this was allayed almost immediately after meeting our butlers, Jack, Akim and Glendon. These were guys who, in turn, ensured every detail of our stay ran smoothly, be it organisation of dining venues, securing our sunbathing spot complete with a cool box full of drinks, and accompanying us each night to our chosen restaurant to mention but a few of their efforts. We soon realised these were accomplished professionals, this was their vocation, and they were magnificent throughout.
