Sandals Select Rewards and the Island Insiders Club
Sandals Select Rewards is now the Island Insiders Club. The tiers, points, and retail discounts below are the ones on the Sandals rewards page, and joining is separate from booking.
Sandals Select Rewards is the old name. On 21 October 2026 the Island Insiders Club page says the program is now the Island Insiders Club, for Sandals and Beaches, and that it was formerly Sandals Select Rewards. The old Select tier is now called Shell. Joining is a separate Log in / Sign-up on that page. Booking a room is not that form.
The rate button books Sandals Grenada, one open Sandals resort. The club is not limited to Grenada. It does not log you in.
Sandals Grenada

Use Sandals resorts to compare the other open Sandals resorts. Sandals Grenada is the booking example on this page because a loyalty article still has to send you to a resort, not to a login screen. Points, the page says, are earned on Sandals and Beaches vacations. A Beaches stay counts. A Sandals stay counts.
What members get
Every figure below is from the benefits table on the Island Insiders page, checked 21 October 2026. If a perk is not in that table, it is not filled in here.
| Tier | How the table says you reach it | Points per $1 | Bonus points after each stay | Retail discount |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shell | 1st stay | 1 | 5,000 | Not listed |
| Coral | 2nd stay | 1 | 250 | 10% |
| Sapphire | 25 nights or $25,000 | 2 | 375 | 10% |
| Emerald | 45 nights or $40,000 | 2 | 500 | 15% |
| Diamond | 100 nights or $90,000 | 3 | 750 | 15% |
| Pearl | 250 nights or $220,000 | 4 | 1,000 | 20% |
| Ambassador | 400 nights or $345,000 | 4 | 2,000 | 20% |
The retail discount is not a room-rate discount. A footnote says it applies to retail purchases at the gift shops, watersports, the Epix photo shop, and specialty candlelight dinners.
Checked on the same table, for Coral and above unless noted:
- Every tier, including Shell: the Insiders Shop, and the room-upgrade hotline. A separate block says upgrades start 30 days before arrival on qualifying rooms and resorts, at 50% off, with terms.
- Coral and above: a spa credit or another on-resort reward, 20% off the managers' wine list, insider events, and a free 5x7 photo or digital image. The photo footnote excludes weddings, engagements, and other photo-session images. The reward footnote says it is once per stay, per couple, in the app, and it excludes split stays.
- Sapphire and above: a tier recognition gift.
- Emerald and above: a free week after 70 paid nights.
- Diamond and above: a weekly VIP event, the VIP concierge line, and reservation-change fees waived.
- Pearl and above: a cabana with service for one day, if the resort participates and it is available.
- Ambassador only: complimentary private transfers, a $200 laundry credit per stay, an annual thank-you gift, and a preferred room number once the category is booked, subject to availability.
A separate line, not a column in the table, says you can get up to 12% off a next booking when it is reserved at the Island Insiders Lounge on resort. The page does not list that 12% as an online code, and it does not list a flat 5% to 15% off every room rate.
What the page says is missing, and what it does not say
- The page says existing Sandals Select points, tier, and paid nights move over, and that no action is required. Log in as usual.
- The page says everyone can join, including a first-time guest. The join control is Log in / Sign-up. It does not say that booking a room enrolls you.
- A refer-a-friend block says a friend gets 10,000 points, described as $250 USD, toward a first stay, and you get 10,000 points after they travel, up to 50,000 points a year. That is a points offer, not a room discount.
- The page mentions a Sandals and Beaches credit card. It does not spell out a card rate on this screen, so none is added here.
Beaches Turks & Caicos

The club covers Beaches as well as Sandals. Beaches Turks & Caicos is one open Beaches resort where a family stay can earn the same points. Kids cannot stay at Sandals. They can stay at Beaches. See Beaches resorts for the open pair, and Best Kid Friendly Caribbean Resorts for the age bands. The button on this page still books Sandals Grenada, because this article's search is the Sandals program. Use the Beaches link when the trip has children.
