Luxury all-inclusive leader Sandals Resorts has unveiled its newest gem – Sandals Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. This highly anticipated resort marks the brand’s 18th property and its foray into the largely undiscovered Eastern Caribbean paradise of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Opening its doors to guests for the first time, Sandals Saint Vincent promises an unrivaled escape where nature reigns supreme, fostering wellness and unforgettable connections.
Nestled amidst a breathtaking mountain backdrop, the resort sprawls across 50 lush acres, boasting 301 luxurious rooms and suites. The experience is thoughtfully designed to celebrate the unique character of Saint Vincent. From programming that highlights the island’s renowned botanical gardens to innovative dining concepts like Buccan, a large-format restaurant built around the concept of shared plates and locally harvested ingredients cooked over an open hearth, every detail reflects the rich local heritage.
A Celebration of Nature’s Beauty and Local Charm
“The vast and stunning Caribbean Sea beckons exploration,” says Adam Stewart, Executive Chairman of Sandals Resorts International. “Sandals Saint Vincent unveils a hidden wonder, not just for its breathtaking beauty but also for the warmth and grace of its people. This island pulsates with joy, and Sandals Saint Vincent was designed to capture that spirit, encouraging carefree exploration, pampered relaxation, and deep connections.”
Luxurious Accommodations with Inspired Touches
Basking under the warm Vincy sun takes on a whole new meaning at Sandals Saint Vincent. Guests can unwind by the expansive 300-foot linear pool, connecting the flora-framed lobby terrace to the horizon. Cabanas and refreshing cocktails create an idyllic setting for lazy days, with three additional pools nestled amongst lush greenery offering further options for relaxation.
Innovation and thoughtful touches extend throughout the resort’s exquisitely appointed rooms and suites. Each guest is welcomed with a refreshing in-room signature cocktail featuring rum and coconut water. A pioneering concept for the brand, the Vincy Overwater Two-Story Villas offer unparalleled luxury with expansive spaces spanning two stories above the crystal-clear sea. These exclusive villas come with dedicated perks, including a reserved table at Buccan. Beachfront Villas provide a tranquil retreat just steps from the sand, where warm neutrals, organic textures, locally sourced volcanic materials, and pops of cool blue create a harmonious connection with the island’s natural surroundings. Many of the resort’s suites elevate the experience further with amenities like dedicated media rooms, private pools, and personal fitness rooms equipped with exercise bikes, yoga mats, and access to a library of fitness classes. The brand’s signature butler service adds another layer of luxury, ensuring unforgettable moments for guests opting for butler-level rooms.
A Destination Awaits: Unveiling the Wonders of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
The true heart of Sandals Saint Vincent lies in the destination itself – a vibrant tapestry of bold colors, bountiful landscapes, and rich cultural heritage. Opportunities for exploration are woven into nearly every aspect of the resort experience. Guests can embark on guided kayak adventures to the Buccament Bat Caves, or explore the resort’s lush gardens and trails on bicycles. Interactive classes and tastings highlight the region’s rich agricultural heritage, from aloe vera to local fruits like mango and breadfruit. Artisans showcase their talents by demonstrating soap-making and handmade jewelry creation at the water’s edge. As night falls, the island’s essence comes alive with vibrant festivities, from captivating sunset parties on the beach to rum-tasting experiences and movies under the starlit sky.
Beyond the resort, a kaleidoscope of adventures awaits. Guests can marvel at the foot of a towering waterfall, frolic on volcanic black sand beaches, or sail the turquoise waters, encountering abundant marine life below the surface thanks to Sandals’ award-winning, unlimited scuba diving program. For those seeking balance and serenity after a day of exploration, Red Lane® Spa offers a haven of tranquility. The soothing sounds of flowing water and lush greenery create a peaceful ambiance, while treatments harness the natural minerals found in volcanic sand to exfoliate and detoxify.
A Culinary Journey Highlighting Local Bounty
Eleven innovative culinary concepts – five entirely new to the brand – showcase the island’s bounty, tantalizing guests from the first bite to the last sip. Guided by a lush jungle pathway and the alluring glow of embers, guests will discover Buccan, an immersive family-style, open-air culinary experience, and the region’s first-ever solid fuel restaurant. The cooking style utilizes local clay yabba pots, becoming a centerpiece of the experience. Local cedar and sustainable sources like coconut husks are transformed into coal, while chefs rely on ancient techniques to create a menu highlighting local “Vincy” ingredients. Seasonal platters are designed for sharing, fostering conversation and connection as guests savor the island’s unique flavors.
A Taste of Paradise Awaits at Sandals Saint Vincent
Scrimshaw, another new restaurant, capitalizes on the island’s abundant access to fresh seafood. Located on the coveted coastal shelf, this restaurant offers a delectable menu featuring dishes like curry conch fritters with a surprising liquid center, scallops with pickled, locally-grown peanuts, and a vegan roasted pumpkin with lemongrass-tofu puree, spiced pumpkin seeds, and red onion relish. A sophisticated cocktail menu complements the culinary journey, with drinks like the Scrimshaw Martini, finished with a dash of MSG for a unique umami experience that pairs perfectly with fresh seafood dishes. The Gin Tonica offers a botanical excursion in a glass, adorned with citrus wheels, rosemary pimento vermouth, and lime.
