Trip planned at end of July, all we have seen is you have to get a negative covid test 48 hours prior to getting there, anyone have experience during this time?
I love that resort. I want to go back as they have completely remodeled it. I watched a webinar last week and everything looked great and they are practicing social distancing at restaurants, etc. I'm sure you will have a great time.blackgoldag11 said:

Yes, has to be tested negative within 7 days of your trip per the above.
I hope you have had better luck than others - from what I have seen and heard, Sandals is NOT allowing refunds at all. Now you may be lucky since it is still within cancellation window, but from everything I've seen the only allow you to move dates (which is BS)agfan2332 said:
I was suppose to take my honeymoon to Jamaica and Sandals in May and had to push it back to September due to my wedding being postponed. We got word two weeks ago from the resort that it was shutdown and wasn't going to be open until October, so right now I'm fighting on getting a full refund for our planned trip.
