Sandals Resorts’ biggest annual loyalty event is back. Welcome Home Week 2026 runs from April 6 through April 10 across all 16 Sandals resorts and Beaches properties simultaneously, and it’s designed to celebrate the brand’s most loyal returning guests.

If you’ve stayed at a Sandals or Beaches resort before and are a Sandals Select Rewards member, this week is built for you — and everything it includes comes at no additional cost beyond your regular room booking.

Here’s what’s happening, what’s included, and how to make sure you don’t miss it.

What Is Welcome Home Week?

Welcome Home Week — formerly known as Reunion Week — is Sandals Resorts International’s annual celebration for returning guests. It’s the one week of the year where the brand rolls out a curated slate of resort-wide programming specifically for its loyal Sandals Select members.

Beaches Resorts runs a parallel event called Reunion Week during the same dates, so families staying at Beaches Turks & Caicos or Beaches Negril can participate in the same spirit of the celebration.

The event has grown each year and has become one of the most anticipated weeks on the Sandals calendar. For repeat Sandals guests, it’s part vacation, part homecoming.

What’s Included During Welcome Home Week 2026

Every guest staying at a participating resort during the April 6–10 window gets access to the full Welcome Home Week lineup. Here’s what that includes:

A Special Gala Dinner. The centerpiece of the week is a themed gala evening — a resort-wide dinner event with dedicated decor, entertainment, and a celebratory atmosphere that goes beyond the standard nightly dining rotation.

Daily Activities and Events. Each day features a schedule of curated activities that change by resort. These range from themed pool parties and beach games to cocktail hours, group excursions, and surprise entertainment. The programming is designed to bring returning guests together and create a social, reunion-style atmosphere.

An Off-Property Excursion. Participating guests are offered a complimentary off-resort excursion — typically an Island Routes-style outing that lets you explore the destination beyond the resort gates.

Curated Merchandise. Sandals Select members who stay a minimum of three nights during the event and participate in the majority of scheduled activities receive exclusive Welcome Home Week branded merchandise — think swag you can’t buy in the gift shop.

Exclusive Promotional Offers. Sandals typically releases loyalty-only booking offers during the week, giving attendees early access to deals for future stays.

A Raffle for a Free Future Stay. Attendees are entered into a drawing for a complimentary Sandals vacation — a free trip for two — awarded during the event.

Who’s Eligible — and How to Register

Welcome Home Week is open and free for all returning Sandals Select members. You don’t need to have a specific tier or point balance — if you’ve stayed at a Sandals or Beaches resort before and have a Sandals Select account, you qualify.

To participate, you need to book a stay that includes the April 6–10 dates (with a minimum three-night stay during the event window), then register through the Welcome Home Week portal on sandals.com/welcomehome. Registration requires your booking number, check-in date, resort name, and last name.

If you’re not yet a Sandals Select member but have stayed before, you can enroll at any time — there’s no fee to join, and your past stays count toward your tier status.

A Quick Look at Sandals Select Rewards

If you’re unfamiliar with the Sandals Select loyalty program, here’s a quick overview. The program has seven tiers — Select, Coral, Sapphire, Emerald, Diamond, Pearl, and Ambassador — based on cumulative nights stayed or total spend.

Members earn points on every dollar spent (starting at 1 point per dollar, scaling up to 3.5 points at the Ambassador level), and benefits include spa credits, on-resort discount vouchers for dining upgrades and watersports, and — at 70 cumulative paid nights — a free 7-night stay certificate.

For a deeper breakdown, the team at Pixie Honeymoons has a full Sandals Select Rewards guide that walks through each tier and its perks.

Why This Is a Smart Time to Book

Beyond the Welcome Home Week programming itself, the timing lines up with Sandals’ current Stay More, Save More spring sale, which offers up to $1,000 in instant booking credits, a free night on 7+ night stays, and a $200 resort credit — with a booking window that runs through April 20, 2026.

That means you could potentially stack the Welcome Home Week experience with the spring sale pricing — getting the loyalty event, the gala, the excursion, and the merchandise while also saving on your room rate. It’s one of the rare windows where both the promotional and the experiential sides of Sandals overlap.
