Sandals scoops more industry awards

Monday night saw Sandals and Beaches Resorts honoured as the Best All-Inclusive Resort Operator at Travel Bulletin’s 2008 Globe Travel Awards, which were handed out at a black-tie ceremony at the Landmark Hotel, in London. The awards, which are voted for by 30,000 UK based travel agents, were presented by comedian Jeff Green. This is the 12th consecutive year that Sandals has scooped such an award from Travel Bulletin.

The award is the second received by Sandals in as many weeks. On Wednesday 10th September, 2008, Sandals was named Resort Operator of the Year at the TTG Travel Awards, which are judged by a panel of 40 travel industry experts.

“We are delighted to be recognised once again by the industry – it’s great to win not just one, but two awards,” said Tony Cowles, Managing Director of Sandals and Beaches Resorts in the UK. “The travel agents who deal with the customers know the feedback they get is based on Sandals ability to deliver quality product and service, consistently.”

Known for their leadership in Caribbean travel, Sandals has once again raised the bar among distinctive resort destinations with the introduction of the Luxury Included Holiday and a collection of luxury suites in Jamaica, Antigua, St. Lucia and the Bahamas. The new luxury experience at Sandals features unprecedented services and amenities including private plunge pools and Jacuzzis, exclusive dining options, and celebrated partnerships with celebrity designers Preston Bailey and Sylvia Weinstock, Rolls Royce; the London-based Guild of Professional English Butlers, Beringer Wines, Dessy bridal gowns and Red Lane Spa.

Sandals Resorts has set the industry standard for the luxury included holiday and has been voted the World's Best at the World Travel Awards for 13 years in a row. For more information log on to Sandals.co.uk.
