My husband and I can not decide between Royal West Indies or The Sands. If you have seen the both resorts, which resort do you think has nicer room/bathroom, lush ground, less crowd and better service. Thank you.

I would pick the Sands although RWI is also nice. RWI is next door to Club Med. Sands restaurant Hemmingways is better than Mango Reef at RWI

Stayed at RWI last April and we're going again this March. We had lunch one day at Hemingway's. Our impression was RWI is more itimate and much less of a public place. All but one or two of the few children there were extremely well behaved. Some noise comes from Club Med during happy hour, otherwise we did not notice it was there. The rum punches at Mango Restaurant were the weakest I ever had in the caribbean.

I agree with Salty Dog & would pick Royal West Indies over the Sands. Agree more intimate property & nicer landscaping.Walk to Hemmingways like we did if you want to eat there. Didn't have the rum punch so can't comment on that.
