After my visit to Antigua with work I had always planned to take my husband there one day and this was our chance to visit Sandals Grande Antigua.

After visiting Sandals Royal Caribbean and Sandals Whitehouse Jamaica resorts within the last 18 months, I was intrigued to see how Sandals Grande Antigua would compare.

After a nine hour, early morning flight, we arrived at Montego Bay airport which has recently been updated making it quicker and much more efficient. We went straight through immigration and boarded our private bus to the first resort, Couples Tower Isle. Upon arrival we were greeted with a very refreshing cocktail. Our checked baggage was taken to our rooms for us while we made ourselves comfortable. The rooms we stayed in had a very clean and modern feel to them. We had an ocean view suite which was beautiful.

We recently had a little surprise visit from Leah and Amanda at Sandals who very kindly brought along a plethora of cupcakes for us all to enjoy for winning the Sandals Weddings Cupcake Incentive. Take a look at our girls enjoying some yummy cupcakes (click to view larger), as featured in Travel Bulletin magazine.

My second trip to the beautiful Caribbean island of Jamaica provided me with what turned out to be an immensely unique experience; not only would I be presented with the opportunity of sampling the delights of the world famous Sandals resorts, but as an added bonus I would then go on to spend a further week in the luxurious company of Secrets.
