Steve Griswold compares two Sandals resorts for weekend trips: Royal Bahamian in the Bahamas has a private island and swim-up bar, while Montego Bay offers short transfers from the U.S. Both work for three-day getaways if you fly from Atlanta and arrive by midday.

Another category, if you're looking for a quick weekend getaway, I have not one, but I have two Sandals Resorts that are going to fit the bill for a quick, maybe a 3-day weekend. Because some of these resorts, you know, you got to fly there, it takes a while, you got a transfer that takes a while to get to the resort. These are quick transfers, so when you land, you get to the resort very quick. And also, they're very close if you're coming from the US. To get to these resorts. So my first one, Sandals Royal Bahamian. It is Sandals Royal Bahamian, which is in the Bahamas. It has a private island, like, so that makes it even better because I was there maybe 4 months ago. So there's another island that has a really cool swim-up pool, swim-up bar, great restaurant, snorkeling right there, all kinds of cool stuff. There's a little boat, 15 minutes, you're on the private island, 15 minutes back, you're on the main resort property. Montego Bay, I again, from Atlanta, have been there before lunch, jerk chicken, red stripe, out on the beach at like 11 o'clock, 10 o'clock in the morning. So both of those resorts open now, Sandals Royal Bahamian, and then open again May 30th, you've got Montego Bay.
