We're thinking of going to Sandals Ocho Rios in May/June - has anyone been there recently?
I've heard that it is need of refurbishment - any comments?
Also, is it possible to walk along the beach to Sandals Dunns River or do you have to go by shuttle bus? Also, is Beaches Grande Sport close by and can you use the facilities?
We stayed at Beaches Inn, Negril last year and were able to walk along the beach 5 mins to Sandals Negril and about 15 mins (quite scary in the dark!) to Beaches Negril.
Cheers
Lesley

I am going there mext month so will post a report when we get back. I did not hear anything about it needing refurbishing - people have reported that it is beautiful and very romantic.
You can not walk the beach to Dunn's property - they are pretty spread apart. You can, however, apparentely walk across the street to BEaches Grande Sport and yes, you can use the facilities there but not at Royal Plantation.
Thanks - I look forward to hearing how you get on!
Anyone else have anything to say???
I still haven't booked yet so please speak now!!!!
Thanks
