While destinations like Jamaica and The Bahamas are often top of the list (and with good reason), this resort chain has opened the doors on an up-and-coming celebrity favorite. Off the beaten path and located in the eastern Caribbean, Sandals Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is the latest addition to the Sandals collection.

Off the beaten path and located in the eastern Caribbean, Sandals Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is the latest addition to the Sandals collection.

Tucked between celebrity hideaways Mustique and Bequia, this gem is quickly becoming one of the Caribbean’s hottest—and most exclusive celebrity vacation spots. Stars including celebrity actor Joe Manganiello, actress Melissa Joan Hart, television star Taye Diggs, Dancing with the Stars finalist Witney Carson, Real Housewives of New York City star Kelly Bensimon, Blacklist actor Amir Arison and famed actor Stephen Baldwin have been among the many stars sighted vacationing at Sandals Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.

A lineup of beautiful accommodations invite celebs to slumber by and even over the sea. Arriving by boat, and greeted by a personally appointed butler, stars are whisked away to their island retreat. The Vincy Two-Story Overwater Villas span nearly 1,250 square feet of indoor and al fresco living space, providing a quiet, private escape. Hovering just above the tide, the lower level offers spacious sleeping quarters with a king-sized bed directly facing the sea – followed by an overwater deck with a lounge area, a floating daybed and steps leading straight to the sea. There’s also a collection of beachfront villas steps from the sand with their own private pool and round-the-clock butler service.

From where to stay to where to play, Sandals Saint Vincent and the Grenadines welcomes stars to the ultimate vacation spot where active relaxation earns its name. Traditional water activities have a unique twist, like kayaking to the nearby Buccament Bat Caves, making a splash on the aquatrikes, and sunset paddleboarding, getting the stars on the water and beyond the beach.

Keeping active and sticking to “couple goals”, the stars can be found hitting up the pickleball courts, sailing the seas, and hitting the top-of-the-line fitness center.

Stars find plenty to toast to across the resort’s eleven culinary experiences. Freshly caught seafood from conch to lobster is served daily, while Parisol Beach Club serves locally inspired dishes like naturally gluten-free cassava flour pancakes paired with fresh and local juices. Creative cocktails, refreshing mocktails, and local spirits are shaken and stirred beachside, poolside or anywhere in between. Blum Cafe serves Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee by day while the resort’s Three Jewels Rum Bar pours 32 rums by night.

A gem within Sandals Saint Vincent is the resort’s stunning Red Lane Spa, set along the island’s riverside, offering pampering rituals from massage to facials. Spa treatments are infused with local, indigenous ingredients, embracing the island’s natural richness -alongside wellness offerings like a cold plunge, soaking tubs and saunas nestled within the lush spa grounds.

With mountainous views framing the resort and bikes available at guests’ fingertips, there’s no better way to explore every corner of Sandals Saint Vincent. Ride to the beach, feel the breeze, and stay active without feeling like you are exercising.

Sandals Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is more than just a destination - it’s the perfect spot for celebrations, from birthdays to babymoons, and special anniversaries. Their memories are sure to include unique moments like kayaking to the hidden Buccament Bat Caves, or trying new local dishes and learning about old cooking methods at Buccan, Sandals’ first large-format restaurant.
