The Stargazer’s Guide to Sandals Dunn’s River

Introducing the Sandals Stargazing Concierge

Once you arrive at Sandals Dunn’s River, you’ll meet your personal Stargazing Concierge, a personalized butler experience to help fulfill all of your celestial dreams – from decadent desserts under a canopy of stars, to bottomless bubbly, and more. All you need to do is give your Stargazing Concierge a ring and have them set up a romantic rendezvous for you in your Coyaba Sky Villa Rondoval Suite. From behind the lens of a state-of-the-art telescope, your Concierge will also help you identify constellations and meteor activity in the Ocho Rios skyscape.

Guests staying in a Coyaba Sky Villa will find themselves in a suite that reinvents modern luxury. The villa promises Caribbean views from every angle, not only from the heights of the rooftop hideaway, but from the intimate confines of the suite, which features captivating views of the tropical garden sanctuary and private pool just beyond the doors.

In this new villa design, indoor comfort meets outdoor luxury, giving guests direct access to a sprawling river pool and ample lounge space on a sun-soaked open-air terrace. Inside, the villa features a pillowy king-size bed, mere steps away from a private outdoor sanctuary, walk-in shower, two soaking tubs, and more. In addition to the Stargazing Concierge services, guests staying in this villa will find 24-hour in-room dining, a personal butler, and in-room check-in.

To commemorate your starry night, this summer for a limited time, guests who request a stargazing set-up through their personal concierge will receive a complimentary star map from The Night Sky - a gift to help remember the moment when the stars aligned above the Ocho Rios skyspace.

While the Caribbean is most commonly known for its crystal-clear waters and white sands, what many don’t realize is that Jamaica is an ideal stargazing destination. With the summer solstice in our rearview mirror, the night skies have grabbed the attention of travelers, with its stars and planets magnificently visible to the naked eye.

Oh, The Things You’ll See

On a clear night from your Ocho Rios vantage point, Mercury is the closest planet in sight, currently 194 million kilometers away from Earth. In optimal conditions, you’ll be able to spot the passing of the International Space Station every two days. Using your suite’s telescope, you can spot the Milky Way, Orion’s Belt, and the Big Dipper.

To help guide your gaze, download the Night Sky app, which uses interactive AR to help you identify stars, planets, constellations, and other cosmic sights. You can also simply ask your Stargazing Concierge, too - that’s what they are there for!
