My first trip to Sandals Grenada

Hi friends!

It's been a long long time since my last post, but soon you can find them coming in fast and furious.
I have done a good bit of traveling and here I am to tell you about the oh so very wonderful
Sandals La Toc Grenada.

Ok, so the flights aren't the best but it's well worth getting there at 730pm. This resort
encompasses the best that Sandals has to offer. Butch Stewart took the best of all of his resorts
and placed it in one beautiful resort.

Located in the southern caribbean, just north of Trinidad, be sure to bring your sun block because that sun it hot. And you won't feel yourself getting fried. Maybe sunblock 75?

Upon arrival at the resort, just 2 minutes from the airport, you go over a hill and then see the twinkling lights
of the resort and surrounding areas. Can take your breath away.

Ok so the first night is an eat, drink, merriment..I don't think so because you are so tired from the day of travel.  And if you really don't want to spend all that for one night you really wont
get to experience, stay at a small hotel near the airport and then venture over to Sandals 
the next morning. Its very easy to do.

Ok waking up in the morning..you have the wonderful buffet, or the sit down breakfast at the
french restaurant.  Sign me up for the sit down every single day. The atmosphere, oh so romantic. Of course I was with my friend, and she and I don't feel the romance.

The pool, the beach...just everything and anything to choose from. The south seas
pool is the main pool. I wouldn't say it's the noisiest pool I have ever been to, but certainly
the drinks were flowing.

Night one..dinner....the super fabulous Butch's Chop House, with their signature dish, 
filet and lobster...Melts in your mouth, no butter required. WOW..

There is evening entertainment at the library, bars galore, or simply get a second
dessert at Cafe de Paris. Yum!!!

I must give kudos to Soy!!! I am not a sushi fan...but holy ....... this place was amazing..right on down to the chocolate martiinis. 

Although I was only there for a few days. Every single thing was perfect. From the dining,
to the staff to the housekeeping team. This resort is an absolute must!!!!

I can't wait until I go back...OH WAIT. I go back on Sat April 26 for the grand opening.

Come one, come all to Sandals Grenada...
