Injured at a Sandals Resort? Dirty Compensation Secrets Revealed
Hardly a day passes without you seeing the commercials – smiling couples, crystal clear water, white sandy beaches, and a paradise awaiting your presence in the Caribbean. Sandals is a multi-billion-dollar brand that is premised on private luxury for couples that want to consummate their love in paradise, where one can escape the hustle and bustle of America, where you’re waited on hand and foot. However, paradise only exists in the recesses of one’s mind, and on this planet, injuries happen, and they almost always point to a reliable cause – human negligence.
For instance, when a tourist is found unresponsive in a hot tub that has no emergency shut-off switch, or a woman slips and falls on a puddle of spilled champagne at an outdoor bar leading to traumatic brain injury, the corporation owning the Sandals brand suddenly changes its friendly tone, and instead adopts a sophisticated tone where they state that while they are deeply sorry for what happened to you or a loved one, they are only allowed to take care of your injuries up to the limit of their captive insurance, which usually never surpasses $100,000.
In addition, they point you to the fact that you signed a waiver, which is usually provided as part of your check-in, and that because the entity is a foreign one, it is not subject to U.S. jurisdiction. The musical chairs continues until you are exhausted and are ready to take the offer on the table just so you can move on, a move that may have you regretting for the rest of your life.
If you or a loved one suffered an injury at a Sandals or Beaches resort, you may be entitled to compensation via their insurers, corporate entities, and other parties that were instrumental in causing your injuries or loss. Before you sign away your life, read on to find out how our best hotel resort injury attorneys will hold this billion-dollar empire accountable so you can recover the financial damages you and your family need to move on with life as a complete and happy unit.

Isn’t Sandals a Caribbean Company? Can You Really Sue Them for Your Injuries?
A lot of guests who get injured at a Sandals Resort mistakenly believe that it is a Caribbean domiciled entity and that there is nothing they can do. This couldn’t be further from the truth, as Sandals Resort International was founded by an American family duo, Gordon Butch Stewart and his son, Adam Stewart. There are a total of 16 Sandals resorts across the Caribbean, and while its parent company is headquartered in Montego Bay, Jamaica, its worldwide sales and marketing subsidiary, Unique Vacations, Inc., is based in Miami, Florida.
This is crucial: when you are booking a vacation with Sandals, you are dealing with the Florida corporation, which means Florida courts have jurisdiction over claims that arise from this booking. Sandals also uses captive insurance that is based in the Cayman Islands. Put simply, a captive insurer is an insurance company that was created by a larger parent corporation in an effort to insure its own risks. This is important because Sandals would rather settle your injury claim rather than litigate because if they did, the financials of their captive insurance may be exposed to discovery, causing them to pay triple or even ten times what they would have paid had they settled.
Forensic Evidence is Key for Beach Resort Injury Lawsuits
In order to prove a Sandals Resorts injury, a forensic investigation is key:
- We will subpoena the resort in order to preserve physical evidence so it can be inspected before it is replaced or repaired
- We shall also engage in the obtaining of incident reports and staff statements that will paint a picture of a culture of negligence, which may have led to your injuries
- We shall also look at their maintenance records to see if these were done regularly, or maintenance was sometimes skipped in an effort to save the resort money at your expense
- We shall analyze surveillance footage to see if there is any critical evidence
