add to this acclaim, for the last ten years
in a row, Sandy Lane has earned consecu-

an annual program that celebrates excel-
lence across all sectors of the tourism in-
dustry. Winners are determined after cal-
culating hundreds of thousands of votes
cast by travel professionals and consum-
ers from as many as 170 countries. In this
capacity, Sandy Lane has not only been
recognized as an industry leader in terms
of overall resort quality, but has also been
heralded as a leader in categories pertain-

Indeed, Sandy Lane has been designed
to serve and satisfy the wants of all visi-
