Negril Jamaica Seven Mile Beach

Sandals Negril helps former NFL wide receiver deliver the ultimate proposal

REGINALD 'Reggie' Williams Jr chose Sandals Negril Beach Resort & Spa as the perfect location to ask girlfriend Brandie Wilkins the most important question of his life... Will You Marry Me?

With the help of dedicated romance experts at Sandals Negril, Williams arranged for a romantic helicopter ride over the island's famed seven-mile beach during their first full day in Jamaica, Saturday, August 6. While the couple was soaring through the sky, Sandals team members used bamboo adorned with shells and tropical flowers, to spell out 'B, WILL YOU MARRY ME?' on the white sand beach. On the return leg of their excursion, Brandi was prompted to look down at the beach, where the tropical proposal awaited. She accepted without hesitation.

Reggie was so thrilled with the resort's help in popping the question that he later expressed his gratitude to Sandals, writing, "so often complaints or even bad news go to the top, but this letter is exactly the opposite. I have never been treated with such class, kindness and thoughtfulness... I am now happily engaged and the entire production came to life because of the team's work here."

The couple enjoyed a Luxury Included® vacation at Sandals Negril Beach Resort & Spa and is certainly looking forward to future visits throughout their married life.

Vacation Themes: Beaches: Seven Mile Beach, Negril

Looking for heaven on earth? The warm azure waters of The Caribbean Sea have a magnetic pull that very few (if any) can resist. Just looking at the ocean will tempt you to dive right in. Negril, Jamaica’s casual, laid-back pace and natural beauty make it a favorite escape for locals and visitors alike. Here, anything goes and everyone is welcome.

Outrun your cares on seven miles of white sand beach on the island’s western-most point. Stake out a blanket-sized spot of paradise or meander along soft white sand. By day, funky eateries serve ice cold drinks. By night, sizzling hot Reggae. Frequently flocked to by thrill-seekers and sun-worshippers alike, Negril’s Seven Mile Beach boasts turquoise, see-through waters hugging a coastline of rocky cliffs and white sands that seem to trail on forever. If you’re seeking a vacation experience heavily based on relaxation and uninterrupted hours of one on one time to enjoy the majestic beauty of the Utopian coastal environment then a day spent on this beach is ideal.

Facing directly west, Negril’s Seven-Mile Beach has been voted many times over as one of the best in the world. Legendary for its dramatic sunsets, silky white sands, clear turquoise waters, and spontaneous island spirit, the natural attributes of this phenomenal beach are alluring to the soul. Simply lay out in the sun or enjoy any (or all) of the water sports activities available right at your fingertips. Snorkeling, windsurfing, jet ski’s and glass bottomed boat rides are easily found along the coast. The choice is yours.

Sheltered by one of the Caribbean’s great reefs, this spot is always tranquil. And because Jamaica itself does not have high tides, the entire protected beachfront is nearly level with the gently lapping waters, creating a seamless entry from sand to sea. At daybreak and dusk, the peaceful waters stand so still they seem to be paying homage to the magic of the sun, like the rest of Negril. If you need to relax and just get away from the hustle and bustle of your busy every day life, Seven Mile Beach is for you.
