Sandals Regency La Toc

I had the privilege of visiting and spending the day at Sandals La Toc. It was an exceptional experience, with delicious food and great service. I travel frequently and usually stay at hotels, but this place stood out as the best I’ve ever been to. The team members were incredibly engaging and attentive. I would definitely return and recommend my family and friends.

Myers was so much fun! We laughed the whole meal & he was very attentive and careful of other guests allergies. Highly recommend! Naomi was also very quick to check in and keep drinks refilled. Such a pleasant experience!

I’ve stayed at several resorts in the caribbean on multiple occasions, and this by far was the most underserved resort. Specifically as it relates to there dining experiences, the staff is very inhospitable having customers wait an hour for food without even providing bread to the table. My spouse is much more patient that I am and she was still hungry, so after already waiting an hour we got up and went to a different restaurant on the resort, and guess what… another hour long wait with 5 staff members continually passing us by. So much so though a staff member who only serves drinks offered to take our order because he noticed how we have not had our order taken. The wait was so noticeable that other customers asked if the wait was long because they witnessed another table get up and leave such that they asked us the same. We told them how long the wait was and that same table proceeded to receive and order before us. Not only do I view it as a waste of money but I simply find it disrespectful excluding the money. There is not a sandals that will be seeing myself, my family or anyone so care for again.

Myers was a great time and had great vocals. 10/10 playlist by him. The food was delicious and the singing took it up a notch.

We recently returned from Sandals Regency La Toc and wanted to share an honest review that may be helpful to other couples considering the resort. First, the positive: the staff were wonderful. They were friendly, courteous, and genuinely tried to help throughout our stay. We also had a very good meeting with the General Manager, who listened carefully and was receptive to our concerns. We greatly appreciated that. There were, however, several things we wish we had known before arriving. Bring cash. This was one of our biggest surprises. The Sandals website did not clearly explain that cash is needed for many expenses outside the resort, including taxis, street food, and some local activities. We brought only $150 because we assumed credit cards would be widely accepted. A simple warning in the pre-arrival information would have been extremely helpful. Be prepared for significant transportation time on some excursions. We were told our snorkeling excursion involved approximately a five-minute ride. Instead, we spent about four and a half hours dealing with transportation and picking up guests from other properties, for approximately 30 minutes of actual snorkeling. The difference between what we were told and what we experienced was significant. We also believe that included activities should still meet a reasonable standard. During scuba, I commented that the diving area was not particularly impressive. The supervisor responded that this was what we get for “free” scuba and that paid excursions go to better locations. We understand that premium excursions may offer a different experience, but included activities aren't really “free”, they are part of the all-inclusive package we paid for. Communication could also be improved. At times, different employees gave us conflicting information. For example, we were told that sushi opened at 5:00 PM and later were told that it was closed that day. Better communication and consistency would make a significant difference. There were also some food and beverage disappointments: no sake at the only Japanese restaurant, a limited sashimi selection, no lobster night during our stay, surprisingly very little seafood for an island resort, fish that was often overcooked, and no sparkling water with meals. Most surprising, there was not a single French wine on the wine list, not even at the French restaurant. We also had a few room-service issues, including repeatedly requesting refrigerator replenishment, particularly water my wife needed with her medication, as well as missing hand towels and shampoo. That said, Sandals deserves credit for how management responded. After we raised our concerns, the General Manager listened and made a genuine effort to make things right. They arranged a special dinner for Stacey and me that included lobster and French wine, and provided another bottle of French wine the following evening. We truly appreciated the gesture. None of these issues individually would have ruined our vacation. It was the accumulation of several relatively small shortcomings that made the experience fall short of what we expected from a luxury all-inclusive resort. Our hope is that Sandals will use this feedback constructively. Most of these issues are very fixable and could make a significant difference for future guests. Most importantly, we want to recognize the employees who took care of us. They were wonderful and often went out of their way to help. Our concerns are primarily about the systems and operations behind the scenes, not the people who were doing their best to make our vacation enjoyable.
