The main airport that services the majority of tourists to the resort is Grantley Adams International Airport on the island of Barbados (BGI)

We recommend booking your flights as early as you can and securing flights that work best with your schedule. You can reserve your flights directly with your preferred airline. Please plan to arrive at least 24 – 48 hours before the wedding day in case of any delays or cancellations. A friendly reminder that the wedding is Saturday, October 25th 2025.

We can't package any rooms in a group contract with air, so you'll need to book the airfare portion on your own.

A great site to search for flights is: www.google.com/travel/flights

If you arrive at Sandals Barbados/Royal Barbados before the 3pm check-in time, you can utilize all of the amenities (pool, restaurants, activities, etc.). Pack a small bag with swimwear and other essentials to take advantage of the amenities while you wait for your room to be ready.

Be Protected From The Unexpected

Optional travel protection pricing is available upon request. Please check "yes" to the box on the registration form if you are interested in having the insuranced added on at an additional cost.

Why do I need travel insurance?

Because sometimes, you have to cancel a trip at last-minute. Travel insurance can reimburse you for your pre-paid, non-refundable trip costs – including vacation rentals, car rentals, hotels, and flights – if you have to cancel for a covered reason.

-Travel delays leave you stranded.
-Travel Insurance can reimburse you for eligible meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses during a covered delay.
-You get sick or hurt when you are far from home.
Travel insurance can reimburse you for care following a covered medical emergency while traveling. Some policies can even arrange and pay for a medical evacuation if needed.

During the reservation process, the registration form asks whether you are interested in travel insurance. Simply, select 'yes', and the insurance will be added. Insurance can only be added at the time of deposit.

The cost of Sandals' TripMate Travel Protection plan is $134 a person (or $268 per couple) and the cost of travel insurance itself is non-refundable.

To be considered part of the wedding group, you must book through the group block and not through any other method (not directly with the hotel, not any other travel site). We have negotiated discounted group rate and secured a room block to make this as easy as possible. Additional fees would apply to visit the resort or come to wedding related events should you book off property (day passes are limited and not guaranteed to be available, so we don't recommend staying off property). The pre-negotiated rates include all-inclusive hotel accommodations, shared transfers to/from the hotel as well as hotel tax and fees. Room categories are available on a first come, first serve basis within the block.

• IMPORTANT: To book at these rates you are REQUIRED to stay a minimum of 3 nights or more. Sandals Resorts have a 3 night minimum stay.

• Rates are available 3-5 days pre/post the room block (based on availability)

• Any changes must be done in writing (via email) with Kerri at Sunlover Travel (kerri@sunlovertravel.com) and changes requested after the balance due date must be paid for in full upfront before they are confirmed.

No changes can be made on a reservation once you are within 30 days of travel.

Check this site for more passport info: travel.state.gov/content/passports/en/passports.html

I FOUND A CHEAPER PRICE ONLINE, CAN YOU MATCH IT?

We are confident in our pricing but if you were to find a cheaper “deal” outside of Sunlover Travel please allow us an opportunity to price match. Please take a dated screen shot. It must include the final total price (with all taxes and fees), what the price includes (dates and room category), the website you found it on. Send this to Kerri at kerri@sunlovertravel.com

DO I NEED A COVID TEST?

At this time, no testing is required to enter Barbados and no testing is required to enter the United States.

AM I REQUIRED TO BE VACCINATED?

No. At this time Barbados does not require proof of vaccination to enter.

CAN WE MAKE ROOM REQUESTS?

Yes. At the time of booking, just note your request. Maybe it is a certain building or room number. Maybe you want to be next to a certain couple or maybe you have a dietary restriction or allergy. This includes any other special requests or accommodations you require. That would all go in the "special requests" section on the registration form. Please remember these are only requests, not guarantees. However, the resort does their best to accomodate when possible.
