Best time to Visit
Good time to visit
Average time to visit
Offering warm temperatures throughout the year the Caribbean is a perfect year round destination. With an average of 9 hours sunshine a day the peak season runs from December through to April which is the dry season when you can expect very little rainfall. May to November are the slightly wetter months where you will find an increase in rainfall as the summer season goes on and with that some humidity, however the Summer months are still a great time to travel as the temperatures are hot and the rain tends to come in short heavy bursts but not all day long. The wettest months with the most humidity are September and October and these are the most probable months for hurricanes to occur in the region although many islands have not experienced hurricanes for a number of years. The average daily temperatures range from the mid-seventies in the winter months and mid-eighties in the summertime.
Insider's View
Swim out to the pontoon just off the beach, and if you take some bread, you can feed the fish and watch them swimming around your own little floating island!
Sandy Lane has one of the best equipped spas that I have seen. Make sure you schedule in time for a visit!
Upon arrival you are given a key holder with your initials on for you to keep… so you can leave Sandy Lane with lots of happy memories!
After relaxing on the beach, visit the new Gelato bar - I would recommend the vanilla with crushed Oreos!
For healthy dining options whilst on vacation, try the spa restaurant's fresh, nutritious menu options
Try one of resident mixologist Jamaal’s cocktails, he makes his own local rum infusions. Mangoes were in season when I visited and the ‘Monkey in a Tree’ was a popular drink (Malibu, mango infused rum, banana liqueur)
Here you will find the only power jet machine in the Caribbean, whilst it looks pretty brutal the treatment is designed to get your lymphatics going and eliminate toxins
Speak to the beach service team about your preferred beach location and they’ll set you up with sunbeds which are then yours for the week
The House offers a Jetlag massage for all guests, don’t forget to book yours in!

Reviews
Hannah Fullagar (Staff)
It didnt take long for me to see why Sandy Lane has the reputation it does; they just seem to have everything sussed out and everything ticking through like clockwork. Its not uncommon to experience slightly sloppy service in the Caribbean, but Sandy Lane defies the stereotype here and delivers 5 star service alongside its 5 star facilities.
There are aspects of traditional Caribbean charm throughout the resort, but everything feels beautifully finished, well thought out, and, ultimately, incredibly spoiling!
What Sandy Lane does, it does brilliantly. Its easy to see why so many guests return year after year as theres no other hotel quite like it in Barbados. Its hard to find any fault really, unless youre not a fan of hot pink!
Victoria Douglas (Staff)
Understated luxury is Sandy Lane's ethos and I think this strap line slightly underplays just how stunning and elegant the property is. You need to like pink here, pink cushions, pink uniforms, pink flowers, but it's beautifully done and I can see why this is described as the flagship property of the Caribbean. Sandy Lane Beach is just stunning with beautiful calm waters in the bay and you can enjoy a vast array of watersports including jet skis. All of the rooms face the ocean and the oversize balconies are sumptuous and a real place to relax. The property was less "bling" than I had expected and I am a new found Sandy Lane fan!
Clare Leigh (Staff)
From the moment you arrive at Sandy Lane, you immediately relax in an atmosphere of unhurried luxury. In addition to the beautiful surroundings, Sandy Lane boasts an amazing spa, ultimate dining and great water sports.
I loved the fact that you can have breakfast delivered to your room at no extra charge, the perfect way to wake up and take in the views from your ocean-facing balcony.
Attention to detail is second-to-none and all of the staff are so attentive which you would of course expect from such a prestigious property. Refreshing cold towels and water misting are among the discrete beachfront services as well as unlimited snorkeling, kayaking, windsurfing and sailing.
Barbados has a rich cultural heritage, which can easily be explored from this corner of the island if you can drag yourself away from your sun lounger!
Melissa Channe (Staff)
Sandy Lane has something for everyone. It is luxurious, the service is amazing and it is set on a beautiful stretch of beach. Everything in the room is controlled by a remote meaning you do not even need to get out of bed to open your curtains!
The kid's club has great facilities for children from 3 years old. Children under 3 can enjoy a separate play area when accompanied by an adult.
Kirsty Harper (Staff)
Where do I start! The service at Sandy Lane is outstanding and extremely personal from start to finish. The rooms are spacious, the beds are super comfortable and a device at the side of your bed controls the rooms lighting and even opens the curtains for you. A visit to the Spa is a must - I would recommended the 60-minute full body massage after a visit to the outdoor Jacuzzi and also take a morning walk along the beach watching out for the turtles in the clear blue sea. The food is amazing and the portions are huge, this hotel really does offer the WOW factor and I could go on and on about how amazing hotel is but you really do need to experience it!
Alice Moseley (Staff)
Sandy Lane really does have wow factor and the experience begins at the airport when you are met by the Sandy Lane representative. You arrive at the hotel after driving through the beautiful grounds, passing the golf courses.
All the rooms are beautiful, bed sheets are monogrammed with the SL initials and edges with the Sandy Lane baby pink cotton. Lovely bath products, state of the art lighting system and television.
No need to worry about getting up to choose your sun bed. Each guest is given their own which is for them during their stay at the hotel.
Lovely spa to be pampered in. Choices of restaurants to enjoy; two within the hotel - one fine dining and an all day dining option, the spa restaurant and the golf course restaurant. An amazing hotel!
Katie May (Staff)
Sandy Lane is one of the most prestigious hotels in Barbados. The thing that really stood out to me about this hotel is the exceptional service which is absolutely flawless. However the spa facilities, golf course and in-room technology are all state of the art as well.
Juliet Morris (Staff)
If you are looking for the best in terms of service levels then Sandy Lane is it! Sandy Lane is a world-class hotel with excellent facilities and standards of service. Just stepping out of the car at the entrance you already feel like a VIP. I noticed just how slick the service was on arrival. I was taken to my room for the in-room check-in and my bag had already made it there. While I was having dinner with the resident manager, Eric Mapp, I mentioned that I like Jasmine tea and that there was none in the room. After dinner, I left the manager and headed straight to my room to find some Jasmine tea had been delivered. It's these little touches that make Sandy Lane stand out above the rest. Where do you start with the rooms? Everything is state-of-the-art; huge plasma screens with built-in internet connection, remote controlled lights and curtains and the most luxurious bathrooms with fluffy white towels, marble floors and a shower with jets at all heights and angles. The rooms are not over the top but discreetly plush. The facilities are second to none - gourmet cuisine, beautiful spa, full scale tennis center, golf and one of the best children's clubs on the island. But a hotel with such great service and facilities comes with a hefty price-tag! In my opinion, Sandy Lane is a luxurious and prestigious hotel suitable for couples as well as families.
