Farewell to a travel pioneer

We’re sure that the name Sandals is well-known to almost everyone who loves to travel.  One of our affiliates, Sandals offers luxurious and unforgettable holidays at their all-inclusive resorts all around the world.

This short post is to pay tribute and say “au revoir” to Sandals founder, Butch Stewart, who passed away on 4 January, 2021.

Gordon “Butch” Stewart’s love of Jamaica started as a boy growing up in one of Jamaica’s small villages. In his late teens, Butch attended school in England and traveled abroad, but soon returned home where he became a young, enthusiastic, entrepreneur. He bought a small beachfront hotel in Montego Bay and within the year reimagined it to create the Sandals Montego Bay you’ve come to love today.
