A Little Bit About Sandals

"Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not"  - Ralph Waldo Emerson
 

Sandals is ideally situated in the picturesque town of St Francis Bay. The ambiance of this “Boutique Guesthouse” is a unique and international blend of our superb hospitality, cuisine and service. Our lush treed and palm-fringed thatched house is decorated in a tropical-African flavour. Situated 50 metres from the main beach, nestling amongst large indigenous rocks echoing to the sounds of birds, Sandals offers you unsurpassed luxury with its pool bar holiday setting and spacious wooden decks.
