This was our second time at Sandals South Coast, this time we stayed in Rondoval room - absolutely stunning! The private plunge pool was way bigger than we had anticipated. We enjoyed the Rondoval pool on numerous occasions, it was like a little city – meeting and talking to all our neighbors. We had 2 outstanding Butlers – Shantelle and Tiffany – WOW they were so attentive and took such great care of us – from bringing us coconuts each day by the pool along with our daily shrimp appetizers to taking care of all our reservations and escorting us to dinners. Several nights we returned to our room to find it all decorated with balloons, chilled champagne and special desserts! We enjoyed all the restaurants especially Jasmines (great servers Jodianne and Careca!) Jodianne even remembered us the 2nd time we went to Jasmines and although wasn’t our server ensured we had anything we needed. Sushi on the Sand was outstanding and my husband doesn’t even eat sushi! There were tons of other options for him and our server Ramoy was so pleasant and friendly, answered all of our questions and took great care of us. Couple mornings we went to Bayside for breakfast, they had quite the selection and we loved the omelet station. Had server Tyomar on a couple of occasions and he was so pleasant and social and brought us anything we could need. Entertainment: we got lucky and had the pleasure of having 2 playmakers on our bus for an excursion during Welcome Home Week to YS Falls (Awesome Owen and Diadlo). They were very engaging with us each time we saw them around the resort. They continually worked on keeping everyone entertained around the pool during the day and at the shows at night. After one show we had the absolute honor of visiting with some of the performers (Deniella, Larkland, Sean and Jamario). It is always interesting to talk with the staff and learn more about them besides just watching them perform. We visited the martini bar on numerous occasions – they make the best espresso martinis! Couple times there were not many people taking advantage of this location after dinner but it was so much fun! We had DJ Andra there on one specific occasion and he was kind enough to play all of my many requests – was by far the best night we had at the resort! While we were there they were completing construction on the updated Long Beach rooms – was interesting to watch the progress and some rooms opened while we were there. Would have loved to try out the new pool in front of it but unfortunately wasn’t open before we left. We will definitely be back to South Coast – the staff were all amazing and friendly and always willing to help. Read less

The entertainment that week was awesome, very fun and also talented! The servers and bartenders were also amazing! They really were so kind, helpful and welcoming. (Especially Taseio, Trey Treyvon, Giovann-they were all the best!) I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who is looking for a good time with great views. Wouldn’t recommend to people who are just looking to complain just because it’s all-inclusive :) Read less
