After Hurricane Melissa, Sandals Resorts is ready to welcome love back to Jamaica. Following one of the most powerful storms in recent memory, the island’s spirit and resilience have inspired the world.

If you’re looking for a meaningful way to support Jamaica’s recovery, consider donating to the Sandals Foundation at SandalsFoundation.org. Your gift helps provide immediate relief to team members and communities most affected by Hurricane Melissa—funding essentials like food, medical supplies, and temporary housing—while also investing in long-term rebuilding across schools, clinics, and coastal environments. Every contribution, big or small, strengthens local resilience and ensures the island’s families can heal, rebuild, and welcome travelers back with the warmth Jamaica is known for.
Reopening December 6, 2025
Beginning December 6, 2025, five iconic Sandals and Beaches Resorts in Jamaica will reopen their doors to guests:
Each property has completed a comprehensive safety and readiness assessment to ensure every couple can enjoy the world-class luxury Sandals is known for.
Although some resorts could reopen sooner, Sandals has chosen one unified reopening date — allowing their incredible Jamaican team members time to rest, recover, and focus on their families before returning to deliver exceptional experiences once again.
Reopening May 30, 2026
Three additional Sandals Resorts will require more time to complete renovations and recovery. These properties are set to reopen on May 30, 2026:
Sandals extends its heartfelt thanks to guests and travel partners for their patience and understanding as the brand works to restore these beloved resorts to perfection.
Sandals Call Center
Hurricane Melissa also impacted the Montego Bay Call Center, causing temporary delays in response times. Sandals is actively relocating and restoring the call center to resume full operations as quickly as possible.
Throughout this recovery, Sandals’ commitment remains unwavering — to care for its team, its guests, and the island that has captured the hearts of travelers around the world.
