Sandals Grenada
Nestled in the hills along Pink Gin Beach you will find Sandals Grenada, quite a gem of a resort. Up until a few weeks ago, it was Sandals newest property (that title now belongs to Sandals Barbados). I can tell you that Sandals has once again raised the bar on the future of their properties with this one. This all-inclusive adults only resort is absolutely stunning.
Take Me There
Also referred to as "The Spice Island", few people have heard of Grenada and that's one of the things I love about it. It is an independent island state within the Commonwealth of Nations in the West Indies and is one of the smallest independent countries in the western hemisphere. For those that have done many of the "standard" islands, this offers a welcome change and one that will not disappoint. Tourism continues to increase to this island, much in part to Sandals now calling Grenada home. JetBlue just announced non-stop flights to this island from JFK and I know that as this island continues to grow in popularity, more non-stop flights will be added. For most of the east coast, a layover will be required but I've said it before... some of the best places to visit are those that aren't so easy to get to!
The good news is once you land, you are literally a 5-7 minute car ride to the resort! Yes, we timed it!!!
Talk To Me
Now on to the fun part... all about the property!! Whether just walking the property, visiting the rooms or dining at the restaurants, there is no question that it was done to the highest standards. You will tell from the moment you arrive at the open air reception desk that every last detail of this property has been well thought out.
- 225 rooms & suites in 3 different unique "villages" with many of them offering private plunge pools or my absolute favorite (I was DYING) the Skypool Suite
- 9 global restaurants
- 5 pools, 2 whirlpools, 1 swim up bar
- Unlimited diving (this is absolutely a spot to consider if you are a diver)
- Concierge & Butler level suites offered
- Daily organized activities
- Canoes, Kayaks, Windsurfing, Snorkeling, Hobie Cats & Paddle Boarding included
- Spa and Fitness Facilities
DON’T WAIT!
This resort tends to sell out of popular room categories far in advance - we recommend booking as soon as possible to get your preferred room.
Take My Breath Away
If you took a peek at the images above, I'm sure you gathered very quickly that this is not an ordinary property. This truly is the new benchmark for Sandals Resorts. So if you think you've experienced Sandals before, I can promise you that you are just witnessing the beginning of what's to come. I'll leave you with my favorite room at the resort (this one takes the prize in my book)…
Sandals Resorts currently has the following locations:
7 Sandals in Jamaica
1 Sandals in the Bahamas
3 Sandals in St. Lucia
1 Sandals in Antigua
2 Sandals in Barbados
1 Sandals in Grenada
1 Sandals in Curacao
