Sandals Grenada Guide: Rooms, Dining & Tips

Infinity pool overlooking the sea at Sandals Grenada
The quick answer

Sandals Grenada is an adults-only, all-inclusive couples resort on Pink Gin Beach, about a five-minute drive from Grenada’s airport. It’s a natural fit for honeymoons and anniversaries, for divers, and for couples who want a quieter, greener island than the usual Caribbean stops.

We have a soft spot for Sandals Grenada, and it starts the moment you land. The resort is about five minutes from Maurice Bishop International Airport, so you can go from the plane to a drink on the beach faster than almost anywhere else in the Caribbean.

Then there’s the island itself. Grenada is the Spice Isle, with green hills, the smell of nutmeg at the markets and far fewer crowds than its better-known neighbors. The resort leans into that calm, with Mediterranean-style buildings, lily ponds and some of the most romantic suites Sandals builds. Here’s why we keep sending couples back.

✈️Almost no transfer: about five minutes from the airport, so more vacation and less travel.
🏊Suites with private pools: from Skypool suites over the sea to secluded Rondoval villas.
🌿A quieter Caribbean: lush hills, spice markets and beaches that rarely feel crowded.
🍹Truly all-inclusive: meals, premium drinks, most activities and tips are part of your stay.

This guide covers what we tell couples before they book: which rooms are worth it, where to eat, what’s included and how to get there.

Rooms & Suites

Sandals Grenada has 257 rooms and suites spread across four villages, each with its own feel. Butler categories are where this resort really shines, and many of them come with a private pool.

The four villages are Pink Gin, South Seas, Italian and Lover’s Lagoon Hideaway. Where you stay shapes your trip, so tell us whether you’d rather be steps from the beach or tucked into the gardens.

Club Level and luxury rooms round out the mix if a private pool isn’t a must. Every room is all-inclusive, so the difference is space, views and the level of service.

WYWT Insider Tip
If you’re celebrating, the Skypool suites are the ones couples talk about for years. Floating in your own pool with the sea below is the picture most people have in mind when they book Grenada.

WYWT Tip
Book Kimonos and Butch’s as soon as you check in, or ask us to note your preferences before you travel. They’re the two that fill up first.

Bars & Pools

Premium drinks are included all day, across six bars. Pools are spread around the resort, so you can usually find a quiet corner.

Beach & Activities

The resort sits on Pink Gin Beach, a stretch of sand on Grenada’s southwestern tip. Fire pits on the deck make it a lovely spot after dark.

Off the resort, Grenada rewards a little exploring. Divers and snorkelers love the underwater sculpture park at Molinere Bay. On land, spice and rum distillery tours give you a real taste of the island, and Grand Anse Beach is close by.

WYWT Tip
Not certified yet? Grenada is a lovely place to learn. Ask us about adding a PADI course so you can dive the reefs on your next trip.

What’s included
Meals, premium drinks, most land and water sports, scuba for certified divers, Wi-Fi, airport transfers and tips are included. Spa treatments, off-site tours and some premium extras cost more.
Getting there
Grenada got easier to reach when Delta began a daily nonstop from Atlanta on December 20, 2025. American flies daily from Miami, and Caribbean Airlines flies from New York JFK twice a week, according to Sandals as of late 2026. Schedules change, so we’ll confirm flights when we quote your trip.
When to go
Peak season runs from mid-December to mid-April, when rates are highest and the best suites book first. Summer and fall bring lower prices. Hurricane season officially runs June through November, so we recommend travel insurance for those months.
Butler service
Butler categories include a dedicated butler who can handle dinner reservations, in-suite dining and little surprises. At this resort, it often comes with a private pool, so the upgrade goes further than usual.
Weddings and honeymoons
Sandals Grenada hosts weddings and is a favorite for honeymoons. Ask us about wedding packages and anniversary touches.
Excursions
We can book tours through Island Routes, the Sandals excursion company, from spice and rum tours to catamaran trips. Tours cost extra.
Stay at One, Play at All
Sandals Grenada is the only Sandals on the island, so there’s no exchange with a sister resort. With 10 restaurants, most couples don’t miss it.

Is Sandals Grenada Right for You?

Perfect for
✔ Honeymooners and anniversary couples

WYWT Tip
Torn between Grenada and St. Lucia? St. Lucia has more Sandals resorts to visit and dramatic mountain scenery. Grenada wins on the short transfer and the calm, uncrowded feel. We’ll help you pick.
