Tucked away on the unspoiled southern coast of Saint Vincent, the brand-new Sandals Saint Vincent and the Grenadines invites couples to experience the Caribbean in its purest form. Opened in 2024, this all-inclusive, adults-only resort delivers the signature Sandals luxury—but in a refreshingly untouched, nature-immersed setting. Think black-sand beaches, turquoise lagoons, and mountain-meets-ocean views you won’t find anywhere else.
If you’re looking for a destination that’s off the beaten path but still offers every comfort imaginable, Sandals Saint Vincent just might be your dream escape.

A Wonderful Honeymoon but the resort definetly has room to improve

My husband and I went to Sandals Saint Vincent for our honeymoon. The ride from the airport was not an enjoyable experience. Ken drove extremely fast, constantly hit the brakes, would go in the opposite lane and pass multiple cars multiple times throughout the trip to the resort. I was car sick by the time we got to the resort. He was very knowledgeable though and did tell us a lot of neat facts about the island.
The resort itself was absolutely beautiful. Our room was so nice and spacious. We loved the soaking tub on the deck and the view from our deck was amazing from the ocean to the mountains. I will say I was disappointed when we first walked in to our room when we arrived because the bed had not been made. We also filled out a form stating it was our honeymoon and received this email:
By celebrating your Honeymoon with Sandals/Beaches Resorts you will receive a special thank you package from us which will include the following:
A Bubbly Welcome: A bottle of chilled Sparkling Wine, elegantly arranged in your room to toast your future.
A Romantic Gesture: A special turndown service that includes flower petals on your bed on the first evening of your honeymoon.
Wake up to Wedded Bliss: Delight in a delivery of a decadent breakfast in bed one morning of your choice.
We received none of these things. I told the lady at the front desk and she said that she would make sure we received the rose petals and wine the next day. We received champagne not wine and never had rose petals on our bed. Very disappointing considering you only get one honeymoon and it would have been nice to have a little special treatment considering it was promised to us before hand.
We absolutely loved all of the food. We ate at Schrimshaw two nights because the popcorn shrimp was amazing and ended up getting two servings of it the second time. Butch's Chop House was also so good. We had the most amazing waiter named Milan who was so attentive and just a joy to talk to. My husband was obsessed with the bacon bread. We got two baskets of bread. The steak was cooked perfectly. We couldn't decide on dessert so we got all three and they were all delicious. The buffet breakfast at Sora quickly became our favorite because of all the choices! We also loved going to Crema for ice cream everyday!
We did a candlelight dinner on the beach for the last night which we were super excited about. Unfortunately it was our least favorite dinner. There are dogs all over the resort and although we are dog lovers and have dogs of our own back home, it is not enjoyable to have dogs running around and begging for food when you are having a romantic dinner. Also the service was not good. We were outside so drinks get watered down fast and hot. We never received fresh drinks or more ice. The food took forever to come out. What was suppose to be an hour an a half dinner turned into over two hours. Also it is a little miss leading when it says private dinner when there were four other couples along the beach just steps from us.
We did an excursion to the Dark View Falls! We loved this experience. Our driver Maxwell was wonderful and our tour guide Jason was so knowledgeable and a lot of fun! Seeing the sight where Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed was super cool. We got to see a smaller waterfall, some pyroglyphics, and lots of beautiful fruit trees. We walked to the amazing Dark View Falls and were able to walk in it along with taking a plunge in the cold pool. We also go to go to one of the black sand beaches that had a great view of the islands active volcano. My husband got to try some local rum punch too.
There were so many pools to choose from around the resort and the water temperature was perfect. We loved getting in the hot tub at night after dinner. We were disappointed with the bars. There were only 3 frozen drinks to choose from. I have been to the Sandals in Jamaica and there were far more choices and better choices might I add. My husband said it was inconsistent too. One drink would be too strong and the next drink would barely have any alcohol.
We were also looking forward to sitting and relaxing on the beach but we soon realize that would not be possible. For some reason locals were allowed to come to the far end of the beach next to the water sport activities and bring their children. This did not feel safe to me nor okay considering we paid a lot to be here and they could just come for free. The whole point of going to an adult only resort is to not have to listen to screaming children. We were not the only ones who felt this way. Multiple people left to go to the pool because of the constant screeching from the children. This is definetly a problem that needs to be address because the resort workers did nothing about it.
The infinity pool became our favorite because it was peaceful but we could also see the ocean and enjoy the beach view. The only downside was it you didn't have a butler or get up extremely early you would not have chairs to sit in. We got lucky one day when a couple left and were able to have chairs but other than that we just had to set our stuff to the side to enjoy the pool.
We loved all the activities but think there could be more especially at night. We loved kayaking, playing pickle ball, playing ping pong, and movie night.
We did go to the spa one day for a couples massage. It was a great and relaxing experience getting to listen to the river in the back ground. The pools and other spa amenities were so nice. I also loved that you could use the amenities even if you were not getting a service at the spa.
Also none of the shops had change. We did not want to use our cards in a foreign country so we brought cash to spend. We had to go to the lobby to get exact change in order to buy stuff. We did get some pictures taken by the photographers but the prices for photos was absolutely ridiculous. Since it was our honeymoon we did purchase some but for 14 photos it was $200 and that was for digital files not even a printed version with a frame.
Overall, we had a wonderful, fun, relaxing, and memorable honeymoon! Saint Vincent is absolutely beautiful and the people were so lovely and kind! As a new resort, we understand they have some kinks that still need to be worked out but we still had the best time!

WHAT AN AMAZING PLACE! My wife Mal and I just completed our week long honeymoon at the Sandals resort and had a an experience one could only dream about.
The food, the people, and the views were impeccable.
We were constantly being welcomed by the staff and were guided to make the trip the best it could be by various staff members.
Whether it was dining staff like Milan, Jahbarrie, Romana, and Shania, or our favorite restaurant - Gatsu Gatsu (special thanks to Jeffrey, chef Angelo, chef Levi, Johzzanie, Necy, Anna, and Zoe for taking such good care of us), we enjoyed great food from all restaurant locations.
The only recommendation is that sushi should be able to be enjoyed for lunch, so we highly recommend Sandals St Vincent consider a lunch menu for GG!
Excursions were breathtaking and entertainment was endless (Thanks Ernesto!). Pool side and beach side service staff were very responsive and great to get along with (Devante, Kizzy, and Shania). Bartenders at Three Jewels were top notch and made amazing drinks. Other bartenders such as Veshan gave us great memories and warm welcome.
Omali was also an awesome presence and a major asset to the staff. He was constantly making sure we were getting the most out of our trip and very friendly and funny, not to mention, pretty great at pool volleyball!
We cannot thank the staff enough, because the views and cleanliness of the resort were top notch, and could not have been accomplished without the staff, named and unnamed above.
Thank you, all!!

My husband and I had an amazing time at Sandals St. Vincent! We didn't meet a staff member that wasn't kind. The food, the people, the athestics of the resort everything was great! The scenery around this resort is breathtaking. The food was amazing, but our favorite was Gatsu Gatsu. The young lady was very patient and took really good care of us. I wish I could remember her name. Last but not least our Butler team Greg, Keyasha, and T-shika were amazing! They were always checking on us and taking care of the details. Several times throughout the trip other couples bragged to us about our butlers! Kyle also had to fill in one night and he was great as well! In summary this resort is awesome!

My husband and I had a fantastic honeymoon at Sandals St. Vincent. The views and resort were perfect!! We stayed in the Lady Palm swim up pool room and highly recommend. It was so nice to be able to relax in our own pool in addition to all the other pools on the property. We loved ALL of the restaurants as well. We especially loved the service from Ramona and Randy at Sora and Ronica at Scrimshaw. They were so welcoming and warm and made our dining experiences 5 stars! We also loved all of the entertainment on the property, shout out to Ernesto, Omali, and the entertainment team (sorry I don’t know all of their names). We especially loved hanging out at the rum bar late night with the BEST bartenders Delle, Atu, and Luke and Jamila our waitress. We truly looked forward to seeing them every night!!! We also appreciated Glendisha who helped us book amazing excursions that fit our needs. We hope that there is a fishing excursion available when we come back in the future, this was the only thing we wished we could have done. I would highly recommend Sandals St. Vincent to any couple looking for some relaxing, adventurous, and fun time together!

A First for Saint Vincent—and for Sandals
This is Sandals’ first resort in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, a nation known for its volcanic black sand beaches, lush rainforests, and vibrant coral reefs. By building in a secluded cove far from the usual tourist trails, Sandals has created an intimate retreat where eco-luxury meets barefoot romance.
The resort features innovative overwater bungalows, an overwater wedding chapel, and sleek, modern architecture that blends beautifully into the natural surroundings.
What Makes It Special
Here’s what sets Sandals Saint Vincent apart from every other Sandals resort:
1. Black-Sand Beaches
Most Caribbean beaches are white or golden—this one’s different. The dramatic black-sand coastline, backed by lush mountains and swaying palms, gives this destination a uniquely exotic vibe.
2. Unspoiled, Authentic Island
You won’t find cruise ports or mega resorts here. Instead, you’ll explore local fishing villages, hidden waterfalls, and protected reefs full of sea life. It’s the Caribbean before mass tourism.
3. World-Class Accommodations
Guests can choose from:
- Overwater Villas with glass floor panels and direct ocean access
- Beachfront Skypool Suites
- Lagoon Walkouts that connect straight to the pool
Every room features the Tranquility Soaking Tub for Two™, 24-hour room service, and fully stocked in-room bars.
Dining & Amenities
Foodies will love the resort’s 12 gourmet restaurants, offering everything from fresh island seafood to international fusion. Plus, guests staying in Butler Elite suites receive a $250 dining credit to explore local restaurants—a unique perk that encourages you to connect with Vincentian culture.
Other highlights include:
- Two-level infinity pool overlooking the bay
- Red Lane® Spa with jungle-inspired treatments
- Unlimited scuba diving and watersports
- Boat excursions to the nearby Tobago Cays—an uninhabited island paradise known for sea turtle encounters
Getting There
Sandals Saint Vincent is just a 40-minute transfer from Argyle International Airport (SVD). While it feels secluded, the travel is relatively easy—especially for travelers from the U.S., Canada, and the U.K.
✈️ Pro Tip: Many guests fly through Barbados or Saint Lucia and take a quick connecting flight into Saint Vincent.
Who It’s Best For
Sandals Saint Vincent is ideal for:
- Couples seeking seclusion and nature
- Honeymooners who want something different
- Repeat Sandals guests looking for a fresh destination
- Eco-conscious travelers who love low-impact luxury
If you’ve already visited places like Sandals Grenada or Sandals South Coast and want a resort with a similar peaceful vibe but new scenery—this is your spot.
Ready to Explore?
Sandals Saint Vincent offers a rare blend of luxury, authenticity, and natural beauty that’s hard to find anywhere in the Caribbean. Whether you’re planning a honeymoon, anniversary trip, or a well-deserved escape, this new resort promises tranquility, adventure, and world-class service.
