What People Are Saying

Thank you so much for all of your help! The staff at Caribbean Resort Guide are great at what they do. We didn't know where to start with planning our honeymoon, and they walked through all of the options and made things incredible simple, but they also got us discounts we didn't even know existed!
Caribbean Resort Guide Testimonial One
Steven And Kiva
In a world of increasing prices and lowering value per dollar, it is so refreshing that this company exists and offers something better! We got VERY good deals on our trips to Sandals Resorts in the Caribbean, and incredibly responsive customer service, too. Both seem rare these days. Will be using again!
Mathew And Amy
Our 20th anniversary to St. Lucia was everything we imagined and more. From the airport transfers, to the tours, and a special candlelight dinner for our anniversary night, Caribbean Resort Guide really went above and beyond. Thank you for all of your help and will certainly use you again for our next vacation!

Giving Back To The Community

Sandals Foundation

Tourism can be a positive force for change throughout the Caribbean. That’s why we donate a portion of our income to the Sandals Foundation every month. 

The Sandals Foundation is a unique 501(3) non-profit in that Sandals Resorts International pays for the administrative overhead so 100% of donations go directly towards the local initiatives focused on educations, community, and the environment.

None of this would be possible without the generosity and support from people like you and the tireless volunteers.

Pack For A Purpose

Pack For A Purpose started with a simple idea that added up to make a big difference. When you travel to your Caribbean resort on vacation, all you need to do is make a little space in your luggage to pack things like pencils, paper, crayons, calculators, etc.  Every project has it’s own needs that you can read about on their website.

Another option is to make a trip to a local school to read stories, help with literacy initiatives, and interact with the children to help brighten their day!  For example, all Sandals Resorts will support projects, and you can look at the link below to see all resorts that you can work with.
