Featured in this Episode:
We sit down with Dawn Smith, General Manager of Sandals Royal Caribbean, and Jeremy Jones, Corporate Director of Resort Operations for Jamaica, for a dynamic discussion about what makes Sandals Royal Caribbean one of the most distinct and romantic properties in the portfolio—and how operational excellence is elevated across all Sandals Resorts in Jamaica.

Together, we explore:

  • The types of clients best suited for this boutique resort

  • Operational insights and behind-the-scenes strategy across the Jamaican region

  • Support systems Sandals provides to help travel advisors close the sale

  • The importance of maintaining a consistent guest experience across properties in Jamaica
