Other facilities

Among Sandy Lane’s carefully manicured 300-acre grounds, you’ll find three golf courses – including the memorable Green Monkey, where golf carts are fitted with GPS systems. Active guests can also play on the hotel’s floodlit tennis and paddle tennis courts and exercise in the contemporary fitness centre on site. At the beach, there is a range of water sports on offer from water skiing to kayaking and Hobie Cat sailing; all non-motorised water sports are complimentary.

When you’re ready to relax, retreat to the resort’s sizable outdoor, multi-level pool, surrounded by picturesque coral-rock walls and a cascading waterfall. You can grab a cocktail from the swim up bar and enjoy music from the modern underwater speakers. The 300-yard-long beach of Sandy Lane isn’t private, but still feels exclusive, since it’s not easy for non-residents to access. However, only hotel guests can reserve sun loungers and water misting. At the beach, mahogany trees provide plenty of shade; and complimentary refreshments, such as sorbet, are readily available. The staff provide full beach service, offering you chilled towels and to clean your sunglasses when you take a dip. 

For a break from the sun, head to the acclaimed Spa at Sandy Lane to indulge in a range of facials, massages and body treatments that incorporate signature aromatherapy products. The spa is comprised of outdoor shower rooms, hydrotherapy pools, a sauna and a steam room. Its eleven soothing treatment rooms come with private gardens and outdoor plunge pools.

The family-friendly resort also caters for children with the Treehouse Club – the perfect hangout for children and teenagers alike, with games, sporting activities and movie viewings. Please note children under the age of three be accompanied by an adult.
