SILVERSANDS GRENADA ST GEORGE ' S

ARESORT THAT SEEKS TO REDEFINE LUXURY in Grenada , Silversands integrates guests in the local customs and immerses them in the beautiful landscapes . Just steps from the private decks of the residences is the famous Grand Anse Beach , a pristine stretch of white sand , surrounded by the tropical greenery and wildlife that makes the Caribbean ’ s Spice Island such a rich , desirable destination . Leading up to the sand , and seemingly almost merging with the sea beyond it , is a 100-metre-long swimming pool ; the longest in the Caribbean . On either side , framing the views , are rows of palm trees , sun loungers , and parasols . In the hotel restaurant , which also boasts exceptional sea views , local food , including hand-caught seafood , takes centre-stage , bringing life to the island ’ s nickname : Spice Island . At the heart of the Silversands ’ relaxing , luxury ethos is its spa , where expert health therapists administer treatments in light , breezy rooms , naturally lit , with light wood floors and blinds , marble wall features , and zen-inspired pebble installations . The separate spa pool is housed in a half-inside , halfoutside room , and is surrounded by cushioned loungers , each beneath its own individual canopy , with water between them . Above , lamps hang from a wooden pagoda , through which you can see the sky . Most of the rooms at the resort are Suites , many of which offer the highest views available , with private balconies looking out to sea . Inside , the style remains very modern , with neutral colours , shiny surfaces , and just a touch of colour in the fabrics . The resort residences , however , are the crowning glory of this unique experience . In private villas either beside the sea or on the hillside , the residences offer sleek modern dining and living spaces , and spacious bedrooms , split over two levels . The private , walled outdoor space of each residence features a plunge pool , a dining sala , as well as grassy areas with cushioned loungers and parasols . Steps lined with flourishing plants take you down onto the main pathways around the resort , or straight down onto the beach . This large private garden enhances the feeling of exceptional luxury that is cultivated at the resort , ensuring that Silversands stands as a first-class destination for long stays in the Caribbean . Silversands Grenada , in the words of its creator , Naguib Sawiris , seeks not to compete with the other luxury hotels of Grenada , but to offer something different , unique , that channels the standard of luxury renowned in St Barts and Barbados .
