Has anyone visited the NEW SANDALS WHITEHOUSE? We are going in January and
we are wondering how it is.. |
Go to these two websites as they may answer some of your questions. Lots of
pictures and reviews: http://chris-n-cheryl.com/v-web/bulletin/bb/ http://www.tropictravelonline.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php "Chris Shipaila" wrote in message ... Has anyone visited the NEW SANDALS WHITEHOUSE? We are going in January and we are wondering how it is.. |
We visted SWH in March 2005. The resort had just opened, so there were
some problems. The staff didn't seem properly trained; they didn't know where anything was. The resort was huge compared to Sandals Bahamas and Montego Bay. Bring some comfortable shoes. All of the restaurants are fairly far away from the rooms. We had two butlers, but we didn't see much of him/her (one night shift/one day). The website said that they would draw us a rose scented bubble bath. We asked for a bubble bath, but didn't get one because the gift shop didn't have bubble bath. Even so, we were told we would have had to pay for it (or I guess we could have brought out own.) I guess I thought they would have sprung for a bottle of bubble bath...oh well. Toward the end of our stay we got a letter from the general manager. He said they would allow us to tip the butler. We were originally told that none of the staff would even accept tips. I guess we thought it was tacky the way they worded it. Normally we wouldn't mind, but it would have been nice to know this in advance before we arrived at an all-inclusive resort. Decor in the restaurants seemed sparse, but that may have been because the resort wasn't quite finished. The Italian restaurant was our favorite. The asian one was the worst (and we LOVE asian food). The pool was very popular because we heard there were sand mites on the beach. The resort was supposedly full, but we barely saw anyone anywhere we went. I guess that was a good thing. It wasn't at all crowded. I'm sure you'll have a great time. Chris Shipaila wrote: Has anyone visited the NEW SANDALS WHITEHOUSE? We are going in January and we are wondering how it is.. |
