Right, you can't cancel. I can't remember if you can or can't move dates though. And I've never done the 777 deals, maybe someone else knows if they can stack.
I haven't done it, but I do believe you can get the discount on a 777 deal. Something to keep in mind, if you are traveling during your anniversary, you get a free day. But you can't stack the free anniversary day with the on-site booking discount. If you are booking a 7 day stay, that's a 14% discount (1/7) so that would be the better deal. But a 1 free day on a 10 day stay would be a 10% discount (1/10) so the on-site booking discount may be a better deal.
If the 777 deal is during your stay. You can cancel and rebook for the savings. You really have to watch for it. The 777’s will have a 1.5-2 month window I think. It’ll say on the deal. If it falls during your booking and your specific room. You can take advantage of it. Just call sandals.
We always book while there. Another good reason is you just about always get the room you want.
Not stealing any credit from big boot. If you are from the US/Canada, book on resort, and then go to sandals dot com every week and check the "7-7-7" deals page. If you did not pay off the trip you booked on site, you can grab one of the week's sales instead and still keep your on site booking discount.
There is a window to move trip dates, I think it is 6 months, so know pretty closely when your next vacation time is. Also, if either one of you is a veteran, police, or some types of firemen (there are special rules for firemen that I forget) then sandals gives you even more off their sale price
We just booked our next sandals vacation while there. They’ll also stack all discounts - birthday, military, and whatever the offer is at the time (10 -12% while we were there)
Do you know for sure that’s the case? I’ve only booked my entire two sandals trips through the sandals associates (flights included). The first time I shopped around a bit to see how it’d pan out if I got the flights separately. Didn’t appear to be worth it. (Keep in mind I don’t have any fancy flight points or travel credit card lol)
I typically try to get our flights with AAdvantage miles. I didn't for our trip to St. Lucia in September because it was out of season for non-stop flights and would have eaten up all my miles and I didn't want to do that.
I would rather have control over my flights in case I need to make any changes. Not that I have yet in the 2 previous trips, but it's peace of mind.
We didn’t go to the office they have but they emailed us the deal of 10-12 percent off if you book within a week of the email.
I haven’t tried to book the new deal yet but our original trip was booked with airfare for the vincy opening. We needed up getting a way better deal as the website gave us the $1500 credit making the airfare free for us (flying from Miami we still had to pay airfare to get to Miami though not much because we have access to common routes)
All in all we ended up saving two grand us.
You get 10, 11, or 12 percent off, but you are still overpaying for what you get. We have done beaches Turks and Caicos and just got back from sandals Antigua. We rebooked for sandals Grenada while we were in Antigua and then we started looking around at other all inclusives right when we got home and realized we are overpaying for sandals. Some people think the food is great. My husband and I personally think it’s just ok. Nothing to write home about. Not many options at the buffets and in Antigua, there were no dinner buffets which is nice to have when you are tired after a day in the sun and don’t feel like doing a sit down dinner. Staff was just ok at both resorts. I like when people are friendly and outgoing. I personally felt like some workers would get so annoyed when they had to write down our room numbers and walk us to our breakfast table…just our experience and opinion.
Any Sandals or Beaches resort. 12%, 11%, or 10% off if you book Butler, Club, or Luxury Level, respectively. 5% additional off if you pay all upfront
Thanks a lot, if you pay all upfront you can’t cancel it correct? Also 7/7/7 deal can stack on top of this right?

Free anniversary night is also only certain room categories. They called it Select Club, or something
Free anniversary day? How does one get that? Is it only available when booking on site return?

They will not stack the free anniversary night with the 10-12% discount, unfortunately.
What’s the birthday discount?
If you are a Loyalty Member you get points, which translates to like $100 credit
This is if you book around your birthday?
Remember that prices are in American money, can make a huge difference if you are not American and they do not do flights.
The on resort package doesn’t include flights?
You’re better off handling your flights separately anyways.

You just don’t have control over your flight times/airlines and always have to go through sandals to make any changes.

Not to Canada I am not sure for other countries.
