Daydream Your Stay at Sandals Dunn’s River

As dreamy as beach getaways can be, sometimes it can be hard to actually daydream about them. The wave of possibilities can wash away your train of thought — what would I have for breakfast? Where can I find the best swim-up bar? Is there anything to do in the water? Quell those what-ifs: We’ve compiled a day in the life of staying at Sandals Dunn’s River to give you a good idea of just how dreamy it can be.

Enjoy drinks in a Rondoval Butler Suite

Morning

Awake in your plush Coyaba Villa Swim-up Rondoval Butler Suite when the sun is already well above the horizon — it’s your vacation after all, you can sleep as late as you want. Roll out of bed and right into the Private Pool Sanctuary for a refreshing start to the day. A quick shower and change later and you’re ready for breakfast: Blum is a cozy café offering a robust selection of artisan coffees (think: local Blue Mountain roasts, Japanese-style and nitro cold brews) as well as scrumptiously tasty island treats. Snag a table by the window, open up your beach read and spend your morning soaking up the peaceful ambiance of a coffee shop in paradise.

Kayaking in the turquoise blue waters of the Caribbean

Afternoon

When you’re ready to tackle the day, there’s no shortage of possibilities! With Sandals boasting the largest all-included water sport operation in the Caribbean, you can have your pick of aquatic adventure — kayaking, windsurfing, paddleboarding, waterskiing, wakeboarding and Hobie cat sailing are all on the proverbial menu. That, and the chance to snorkel or scuba dive the nearby pristine reefs promises to provide an adventure you’ll cherish for years to come. Back on dry land, the beach is a tried-and-true activity, but the pools are pure paradise: Between live music, private cabanas and waiters at your beck and call delivering endless tropical drinks, unwinding is a breeze. Finding a lounge chair to call your own is easy, thanks to the fact that there are five impressive pools — and two sprawling river pools — to choose from. Plus, your pool day pairs perfectly with the swim-up bar. But, if you prefer a bit more green to your paradise, the adjacent 4-star golf course (and complimentary green fees) are enough to entice even the most casual fan of golf. For those eager to explore their creative side, Sandals has you covered: You can channel your inner Picasso with a paint-and-sip event, or dance the afternoon away with pop singer impersonators performing poolside.

The agenda for the evening: Fun, and lots of it.

Evening

End day at the poolside bar with vibrant music and dancing, Carnival style. As the sun sets and cool golden hues descend on Sandals Dunn’s River, the resort comes alive in the twilight. The perfect spot for snapping a picture of paradise during the golden hour? Ocarina Rooftop Bar — the stunning views pair perfectly with the delicious aperitifs.

Dinner is a culinary journey; whether you’re savoring octopus salad at Edessa, wok-fried tofu and stir-fried eggplant at Banyu, snow crab sushi rolls at Hanami or island-style curried chicken at the Jerk Shack on the beach, your dining experience won’t just be gourmet — it’ll be memorable. After-dinner drinks are just as sumptuous thanks to nine bars across the resort; but if you’re looking for a quieter spot to sip libations, your accommodations include a fully-stocked bar with premium liquor. Kicking your feet up on your balcony, a cool glass of rum in hand and the waves serenading you are the chief ingredients in capping off your perfect day in paradise.
