We have been frequenting Sandals properties since 1996. They are the originator of all inclusives, and do it best. We finally make it to Sandals Grenada and are so glad we did! The delay over the years was mostly due to limited flights from California, but it's definitely improved now. This property is the perfect setting if you are looking for a Caribbean paradise. The airport is 5 minutes from the property so your vacation starts quickly. Extra efforts were made to get everyone checked in timely and we were in our swimsuits walking the beach within an hour of arrival. We are beach bums so we were pleased with the amount of chairs and umbrellas available, as well as the warm water and designated swim areas. Be sure to bring a packable raft, water shoes, snorkel and mask because the swim areas are like an aquarium with lots of fish and sea life tucked in the rock jetty. Be sure to ask the water sports team about the 3pm boat tour (included). They take you out in the scuba boat and give you a one hour tour of the coastline down to St. George's. Because we are beach people, we purposely booked our room in Pink Gin building for the shorter walk. If you are pool people, they have great options too. The pool toward the beach is more quiet, and the other more active. The food at Sandals Grenada was the best we've ever had at a Sandals resort. They continue to change/update/fine tune options which is so appreciated. They have everything you can get in the US, as well as their specialty dishes from the island which include their plentiful spices. They offered vegetarian and vegan options at all restaurants and waiters were so kind to inquire with the chef on ingredients when asked (not veg/vegan but dairy and I aren't friends). The nightly entertainment was great. Prince and his team were very talented and offered an array of shows. We loved the ”living room” area where we hung out in the evenings for entertainment, drinks, pool, ping pong and other activities. I'm saving the best for last...hands down Sandals has the most beautiful settings in the Caribbean. However, the secret ingredient to their success is the people. We were absolutely floored by the friendliness and kindness at Sandals Grenada at every restaurant, bar, housekeeping, landscapers, you name it. We were assisted by Jason Jonas (no doubt a future leader) at check in who made sure we were welcomed and put our mind immediately at ease. Jennifer Greenidge, Director of Guest Services was there for us anytime we had a question, needed a recommendation and even a hug goodbye. Bassey in Loyalty Travel was so helpful in getting us re-booked for our next Sandals trip. He had a wealth of knowledge about the room options and choices based on our past bookings (we are close to getting another free week!). Hotel Manager Rohan Louis was a constant presence during our stay and always had a smile and making sure everything was going well. We hope to see her a
