Overview
Sandals Royal Bahamian has a long-standing regal heritage. Before it was part of the Sandals family, this retreat was known as the Balmoral Club – a famed 1940s escape for the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. Upholding the Balmoral's legacy, Sandals Royal Bahamian's main entrance and lobby display frescoed ceilings and opulent chandeliers, while rooms include old-world colonial accents. Sandals Royal Bahamian also features a Red Lane Spa, 10 restaurants, seven pools and complimentary gear for kayaking, sailing and scuba diving (lessons are covered by the all-inclusive room rates). And if you crave a change in scenery, hop on a free boat and within minutes you'll be on Sandals' private offshore island with access to two secluded beaches, a lagoon-style pool and a seafood eatery. Though guests say the private beach is a fun getaway, many lament the inconsistent service and the indirect ocean views from the accommodations.

What was once known as the famous Balmoral Club back in the 1940s later became the 408-room Sandals Resort in 1995, where the motto is 'Love is all you need.' This resort has everything designed for couples and manages to impress upon arrival with Roman columns, statues, fountains, three levels of elegant accommodations, 10 distinct restaurants, and eight bars.
Cable Beach's most expensive spot has elegantly furnished rooms with views of the ocean, pool, or grounds replete with pillars and faux-Roman statuary as well as personal butler service for the ultimate indulgence. If the 15 acres aren't enough for you, catch the hourly ferry over to Sandals Island to really get away from it all. Indulge in a massage in the Red Lane Spa Zen Garden on the easternmost tip of the island.
In case the name didn’t make this shockingly apparent, the big selling point of this adults-only, all-inclusive resort is the fact that it also has its very own island, with a pair of beaches (one for relaxing, one for sport), pool, restaurant, and Zen garden.
Amazing Greco-Roman statues adorn the grounds of this all-inclusive, couples-only resort. Rooms range from merely lovely to luxurious, and many have butler service.
