Sandals and Beaches Resort Chairman, Adam Stewart, announced on his social media account today that the resort brands would be adding not one, not two, but THREE new properties to their portfolio. All three properties will be set to open in the North Coast of Jamaica, near Ocho Rios.

The first of three properties will be the highly anticipated return of Sandals Dunns River, a resort that was a beloved "fan favorite" among Sandals fans for years before Sandals let it go to another resort chain. Past guests have asked Sandals for years to bring their Dunns River resort back, and now they're getting their wish.

It won't be the Sandals Dunns River of the past, though. This new property will receive a full renovation to re-Sandalize the property and return to the brand better than ever before. Now it will include 48 signature SkyPool Suites, a first for Jamaica, and 12 Swim-up Rondoval Suites. Next door, a brand new Sandals Royal Dunns River will be built as a separate resort with full exchange privileges between the two (much like the Sandals properties in Barbados). Sandals Royal Dunns River will be comprised of 250 suites.

Today, Adam Stewart and the Sandals and Beaches team met with the Jamaican Prime Minister to go over the renderings of the resort. Then, a little while later, they broke ground on one of the properties. I am truly excited to see what is to come for the brand and to visit what I know will be three incredible new resort properties on the beautiful island of Jamaica.
