You earn free nights to travel to our resorts when you sell a Sandals or a Beaches booking with our “Sell & Go Program”. As long as you pre-register the booking that you’ve sold in the travel agent area of the Sandals website, you and your companion can travel free! Whether you have booked with Sandals directly, booked through VAX or you have booked through your favorite tour operator, you must tell us what you’ve sold, so we can credit the booking. It’s simple to register the booking…. Here’s how you do it!
