Grenada Beaches: The 9 Best Beaches on the Island to Soak in the Sun
Category: Island LifeApril 26th 2023Back to our Sandals Blog > > >
There's an unmistakable charm to Caribbean beaches that is enough to want to plan a vacation around them, just for the peace, fun, and relaxation it is sure to bring. Grenada is one of those islands in the Caribbean where you can find some of these stunning beaches. This includes over 45 beaches, most with crystal clear waters and glittering white sand, and a few hidden gems with unique, volcanic black sand.
Before we get into the beaches, let's talk a little about Grenada. This island nation is located in the southeast Caribbean Sea. Measuring around 135 square miles, this is one of the smaller islands of this region. Grenada is known by many as the 'Spice Isle' because of how many amazing and authentic spices are grown here including nutmeg, cocoa, and cinnamon.
It might be possible to take a whiff of those spices as you make your way to the various beaches around Grenada. The great news for beach explorers on this island is that all beaches are public. At most of Grenada's beaches, you'll be able to find lots of room to relax, try water sports, or go diving. Whatever it is that you're looking for out of your beach day, you're very likely to find it in Grenada. We've listed the best beaches as a starting point!
Good to know: The territory of Grenada is made up of three islands that also include Carriacou and Petite Martinique. Grenada is the largest island of this grouping and is the most populated as well.
The 9 Best Beaches in Grenada
Grenada may not be the largest Caribbean island but its beaches certainly have a lot to offer. The magic of this island's beaches can be seen in their variety, which includes everything from calm and secluded stretches of sand framed by coconut trees to more entertainment-centric beach locations. Below you'll find a list of nine of our favorite beaches to visit in Grenada!
Looking for Sandals Resorts travel agents? We offer the best prices and packages, including airfare to and from destination, airport transfers, excursions and activities, travel insurance and so much more.
1. Grand Anse Beach
It'll be hard to stop yourself from making a beeline to the beautiful
Grand Anse Beach is loved for its calm waters, which are deep enough to swim around or even go diving. Water sports like kayaking are also available on this beach. As this stretch of sand is quite extensive (around two miles long), you'll find plenty of space to unwind. As you relax on the golden sands beneath the swaying palm trees, you'll really feel like you won the tropical beach lottery at Grand Anse.
Visiting Grand Anse Beach is free and so is parking. In terms of amenities, bathrooms, and changing rooms are available near the entrance of this beach. There's also free Wi-Fi. At Grand Anse Beach, the only things you might have to pay for are lounge chairs and umbrellas (about $15 USD each) and something to eat. There are many beach bars and restaurants in this area. If you'd prefer to bring your own food and drinks for your beach day here, that's perfectly alright too. Grand Anse Beach is rarely, if ever, overcrowded so it won't be hard to find a peaceful space to rest. While on Grand Anse Beach, you might also want to stroll along the nearby Carenage Harbor Promenade to admire the yachts.
2. Morne Rouge (BBC Beach)
Locals in Grenada commonly refer to Morne Rouge as BBC Beach. BBC Beach is a wonderful place to go if you're looking for somewhere to relax and take in the island's lovely scenery. Approximately a quarter mile in length, this beach can be found to the south of Grand Anse Beach. BBC Beach is one of the smaller beaches in Grenada, yet it can still be worthwhile to go here if you're looking for some peace and quiet by the seaside.
From Grand Anse Beach, you can stroll to BBC Beach via the main road. Magazine Beach is also not too far from BBC Beach. Though there are more popular options than BBC Beach in Grenada, there are considerable perks to visiting this beach including nearby food and drinks. Near BBC Beach, there are three tiny bar-style restaurants where you can enjoy tasty treats and delightful, fruity cocktails. Fish tacos are also a popular option in this area.
BBC Beach is ideal if you want a beach where you can get an authentic local experience in Grenada. The water is calm and shallow here, and there's even a cove that protects the bay. All of this bodes well for a great day of swimming, even for those with a little less experience.
3. Levera Beach
Levera Beach in Grenada is part of the 450-acre Levera National Park. This beach is located in the northern part of Grenada. Due to its ambiance and scenic nature, this beach is ideal for nature and animal lovers. One of the most interesting feats that nature enthusiasts are sure to love about this spot is that it is home to one of the largest populations of nesting leatherback sea turtles in the Caribbean. From the start of April until the end of June, you might be able to catch a glimpse of leatherback turtles coming ashore to lay their eggs.
Levera Beach isn't a great choice for swimming though. The strong currents and rugged cliffs onshore can make this activity intimidating. There are also no lifeguards in this area. Despite these drawbacks, there are still lots of reasons to visit this beach. At Levera Beach, you can explore mangroves or visit the Levera Pond for some bird watching. While in this area, it is also possible to take in views of the conical, jungle-covered Sugar Loaf Island.
4. Magazine Beach
Soft sand, a cool breeze, and a refreshing sea bath - that's some of what you can expect to enjoy at Magazine Beach in St. George's, Grenada. With captivating scenery, this beach is the ideal spot to soak up some sun and enjoy a swim during a Grenada vacation. There is a lot to love about Magazine Beach including the opportunity to go snorkeling and try water sports. Though the water sports options here are limited due to sometimes rough seas, you can certainly sign up for a kayaking adventure. Kayak rentals are available in this area, as are snorkeling rentals.
Magazine Beach is located near the airport in Grenada. Other than its obvious beauty, some of the other things locals and visitors love about this beach include the fact that it is a great spot to socialize. Particularly on Sundays, you can enjoy a fun island 'lime' complete with barbecue treats on sale including fish, lobster, and other meats. If you go on any other day, you'll need to bring along your lunch and drinks for this beach adventure.
If you head down the southern end of Magazine Beach, you'll find the Aquarium Restaurant which offers tasty island cuisine and live music on some days. Overall, if hiking, exploring, and trying outdoor activities are your idea of a day well spent, you'll be glad that you chose to visit this beach.
Good to know: Sun beds and umbrellas are available for rent at Magazine Beach.
5. Bathway Beach
Bathway Beach in Grenada is well-known for its natural beauty. This beach is located within the Levera National Park in St. Patrick Parish on Grenada's northern tip. Bathway Beach is more private and less busy than some of Grenada's more popular or centrally located beaches. If what you want is a tranquil seaside spot with a relaxed ambiance and great scenery, Bathway Beach is an excellent choice.
Bathway Beach offers a variety of activities, including snorkeling, in addition to a beautiful space to relax. The water here is clear and conducive for spotting exotic sea life. During the day, you can expect to see lifeguards here, which is useful due to the Atlantic surf. Having said that, this beach is sufficiently sheltered to make swimming safe most of the time.
Aside from snorkeling, other fun things to do in this area include hopping on a catamaran or going boating off the coast of Bathway Beach. Keep in mind that this beach tends to be more crowded around Grenada's national holidays. On some days, particularly on holidays, you'll find more options to buy food and drinks. Generally, though, you might want to pack your own.
Expert tip: While at Bathway Beach, make some time to visit the town of Sauteurs, which is the fourth-largest city in Grenada. Having homemade ice cream or visiting seafood restaurants is a must in Sauteaurs.
6. Sandy Island Beach
Sandy Island Beach is hands down one of the most picturesque beaches in Grenada. It is unique in that it is located right in the middle of the ocean, and on the best days, you and your party might find that you're the only ones there! Sandy Island Beach is surrounded by lush greenery and coral reefs and it is quite serene. Those looking for a memorable beach experience in Grenada will be lucky to stumble upon this seaside gem.
Small and uninhabited, this sandbar beach is located near the island of Carriacou within a protected area. There is no infrastructure on Sandy Island Beach and to get there you'll need to take a water taxi. You can find one near Paradise Beach and at some other locations in Grenada. It will cost around $15 USD per person to take a ferry to Sandy Island Beach. For a beach day at Sandy Island, you'll need to bring adequate supplies.
In terms of what to do at Sandy Island Beach, you can relax, snorkel, sunbathe, swim, or enjoy some fun-filled activities in the ocean. Start your beach day here with an underwater exploration to see the diverse marine life, and end it relaxing while watching a breathtaking sunset.
Expert tip: When 'liming' and enjoying the beaches and waterfalls in Grenada you can bring some of the best
Grenada food and drinks along with you. This is important especially if you'll be going to more remote locations.
7. Paradise Beach
Paradise Beach is one of the most popular attractions on the island of Carriacou. Visitors to this beach can expect to find a mostly uninhabited space with miles of silky white sand, calm and shallow waters, and vibrant surrounding greenery. This beach is surrounded by thriving coral reefs as well which is great news for divers.
You'll need to take a boat to get to Paradise Beach in Carricou. It won't be hard to arrange this as boat operators usually offer access to Paradise Beach from several mainland beaches. Some boat tours may also be able to introduce you to the best snorkeling around Carriacou, including at Paradise Beach. Paradise Beach is quite popular and it is ideal if you're looking for a unique, beautiful, and relaxing beach spot.
Good to know: A beach bar and a dive shop are available near this beach. There are picnic tables available as well if you want to enjoy a simple, seaside meal.
8. La Sagesse Beach
The hustle and bustle of life will be the last thing on your mind as you relax on the scenic La Sagesse Beach in Grenada. This secluded beach is located in southeast Grenada in St. David's Parish. This beach won't be hard to find and it is just a five-minute walk from the main road. La Sagesse is a popular option as it has both white and black sand and lots of room to explore.
La Sagesse Beach is great for sunbathing, swimming, and even hiking. For the latter, you can start your adventure by visiting the La Sagesse Nature Center. Here you'll be able to find out about the trails in this area and tropical gardens that you can explore as well. Enjoy bird watching and spot a variety of exotic creatures as you get more familiar with this space.
Back on the oceanfront, you might want to get into some snorkeling or scuba diving on this beach. Or, you can just relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. There's a hotel and restaurant in this area where you can grab lunch. You can get your fill on things like locally caught fish and conch infused with Creole spices. Juices and cocktails are available too.
9. Duquesne Bay
Stunning and secluded, Duquesne Bay is located on the northwestern tip of Grenada in St. Patrick Parish. This beach is a bit on the rugged side and mostly undeveloped. Off the beaten path, you can have a beach day that's private and away from the usual beach crowd. Secure a shady spot and admire the coconut palms that line the beach as you relax and watch the colorful fishing boats just off the coast.
Duquesne Bay is home to a historic collection of Amerindian petroglyphs carved onto the cliffs. Much of this still remains visible after many, many years. The sands of this beach are of a darker hue than most and the waters are clear, inviting, and perfect for swimming or snorkeling.
Good to know: Even if you've been to some of the best beaches in Grenada you'll likely still find more to love about them the next time you visit. Aside from the beaches, here are some more amazing
things Grenada is known for .
BONUS BEACHES: More hidden gems to check out in Grenada
1. Anse De La Roche Beach
Anse De La Roche may well be worth visiting more than once while in Grenada. This is a beautiful, scenic, and secluded white sand beach that is located on the island of Carricou. To be specific, Anse De La Riche Beach is located near the northern end of Carriacou at the foot of the High North Range.
There are two ways that you'll be able to get to this beach if you decide to visit Carriacou. You can either venture on a half-mile hike, or you can go there on a boat. As these options can be intimidating for some people, particularly having to walk, this beach has remained largely unspoiled. If you make the time to go here you can enjoy a pristine beach with crystal-clear waters and lots of vibrant surrounding greenery. The panoramic views here are amazing, and on some days you'll be able to see as far as Union Island, one of the islands that make up St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
2. Petite Martinique Beach
Petit Martinique is one of the islands that you'll be able to visit during your Grenada vacation. This island is fairly close to Grenada and you can get there by boat. Measuring just one mile across, this is the smallest of the three sister islands of this territory so you'll be able to visit all of its beaches in a single trip.
The island of Petit Martinique is sparsely developed, and this gives a hint of what you can expect from Petit Martinique Beach. Secluded with glimmering white sand, Petit Martinique Beach is ideal for a quiet beach day. To get to this beach you can either take a boat charter or catch a ferry. There are regularly scheduled ferries that run from both Grenada and Carriacou to Petit Martinique. Definitely go snorkeling if you visit Petit Martinique as the reefs around this island are healthy and teeming with fish.
Good to know: If you go to Petit Martinique, you will most likely be dropped off at the west coast's central hub, Mang Beach. Another popular beach option on this island is Sanchez Beach.
3. Black Bay
Black Bay Beach is located on the west coast of Grenada in St. John Parish. This is one of the famous black sand beaches of this island and it'll take some walking to get there. If you want to enjoy this unique natural attraction in Grenada, keep in mind it takes about 20 minutes of hiking from the Concord main road to get to Black Bay.
The walk here can certainly be worth it as the sights along the way are quite captivating. As you stroll along, the beach will come into view once you're past the banana plants and other greenery in this area. Black Bay is a volcanic beach, and the sand gets its color from past volcanic eruptions of Mount Saint Catherine. This is a fairly remote beach so you'll need to bring everything you need for your beach day including water, snacks, towels, and beach shoes (the sand can get really hot!).
Near Black Bay Beach, you can find the Concord Waterfall which is also in St. John Parish. For an even more exciting adventure, you can hike a bit further to the Black Bay Cave to view centuries-old Amerindian petroglyphs, as well as a colony of bats. Agility can come in handy here as some scrambling might be necessary along the indistinct path.

Some of our destination weddings
Sandals Grande, St. Lucia, Large Group, Destination Wedding
I wanted to share (with permission) these gorgeous pictures from a destination wedding 2 weekends ago we had the privilege of being a part of and booked by Lia. She chose this over the water wedding chapel in St. Lucia with friends and family there to help celebrate. I love her flower crown and her dress and how happy she is. Picture perfect. Congratulations Kate and Curtis! We are so happy for you!
Beaches Resort, Ocho Rios, Jamaica, Destination Wedding
Lia was very helpful for us in planning our destination wedding to Ocho Rios, Jamaica. We had gone through a few other travel planners first who didn't seem nearly as interested in our needs. We really appreciated the way Lia helped us navigate through some of the complexities, including the local laws of Jamaica and the planning with the resort itself. Even once we got to the resort and ran into a few snags, Lia was able to quickly get those resolved very quickly. We would highly recommend her for anyone planning a destination wedding or any other vacation. Thanks, Lia, for making our destination wedding the most special day of our lives.
Playa Del Carmen, Large Group, Destination Wedding
Wedding planning can be stressful and overwhelming, but if you're planning on having a destination wedding, especially with a large group, I would highly recommend using All Inclusive Weddings!
From beginning to end, they help with every step; i.e., finding the venue, creating a custom wedding website, and booking all your guests. Their office manager, Linze, was very responsive, helpful, and so sweet! Everything turned out smoothly and we couldn't be happier!
Dreams Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa, Destination Wedding
Stephanie was our incredible travel agent for our destination wedding! She helped with every aspect, quick communication and AMAZING coordination with over 50 different people over 8 states. Stephanie from the beginning, gave options and talked through so many questions I had. I could not have asked for a better right hand woman! 10 out of 10 for Steph, we could not appreciate & trust her more!
Incredible Agent For Our Destination Wedding! 10 Out Of 10 For Steph!
Such an amazing week of memories,laughter & love! Thankful for our people and truly blessed beyond words ♥ï¸â™¥ï¸
Royalton Blue Waters, Montego Bay, Jamaica, Destination Wedding
My husband and I worked with the company's owner, Lia Vincent, and office manager, Linze.
Lia & Linze were both very warm and friendly, and from day one, we could tell cared about us as a couple and our destination wedding success, rather than just seeing us as more clients. I get stressed out easily, so planning my own wedding alone was overwhelming, even though my wedding was 10 months out. I ended up working with Linze, and we pushed up the wedding date with a little less than three months to prepare. I was initially nervous about using a travel agent / wedding planner, but it turned out to be a huge blessing, because it took away a lot of the stress and worry I was experiencing. A bride has so many things to worry about, so having someone else bear the brunt of the work and worry about the nitty-gritty details was a HUGE relief for me.
Why spend hours analyzing vendors and reading reviews, when you can have a pro do it? If you want an intimate wedding, if you want to elope, or if you want a huge all-out, go-into-debt-for-years wedding, and if you're in the market for a wedding travel agent, Lia and Linze should be at the top of your list!
The day of the wedding, everything was so beautiful, and so much better than I could have done on my own. Lia's company finds the best local vendors, so you know you'll get great value in your package, and what's nice is her company offers different packages for different budgets. We worked with and met AMAZING vendors! The reception was so elegant that as soon as I entered the reception, I felt amazement, joy, and relief because being the worrywart and control freak that I sometimes can be, it was hard for me to trust someone to somehow make everything perfect. Lia was able to give us the dream wedding we couldn't have done ourselves. Our family and friends were also amazed, and repeatedly told us how great the wedding, reception, and food were at the resort.
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico Destination Wedding
I used Stephanie Tindall to help me choose the perfect resort in PV Mexico for where my guests would stay for my destination wedding. She went round and round with me helping me find the perfect location. It had to be nice, trendy, not to outrageously expensive and within a certain mile radius of a marina where my guests needed to go for the wedding. She helped everyone get booked and when things became a little hectic as tracking sometimes can get. She took care of the details. One of my guests had passport issues and she helped talk them through what to do. It was such a relief to have a point of contact for travel related issues so I didn't have to be stressed about it. She did this all with a patient, positive? upbeat and kind attitude through the entire process. I highly recommend her.
Thank you again,
Darby Brown
UNICO, Riviera Maya, Mexico Destination Wedding
Unico was wonderful and the perfect place for our wedding! It was quiet and the ceremony was better than expected. We had it on the gazebo and it was away from everything, which was great. The photography was beyond our expectations. We have not received our video yet, but assume it will be just as great. I also used the in house vendor for make up and hair, and was not disappointed. The wedding coordinator, Nazareth, was so sweet and on point. We used the local host quite a bit with WhatsApp, which was quite convenient. Food and drinks were amazing. We were disappointed that 2087 restaurant was down for half of our stay for repairs. We ate at Mi Carisa on our wedding night, which was the perfect choice. Service was also best there. We scheduled 2 tours through the hotel, a sunset cruise and Chichen Itza express. The boat tour was nice. Chichen itza tour was too fast and ok. We really appreciate your recommendations and help booking our wedding and stay. It was wonderful! Thank you again, Juliet and Jason
Hard Rock Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, Destination Wedding
We just got back from an AMAZING wedding weekend yesterday. I can't begin to thank you enough for your help and support during the entire process. Everyone had a great time. It truly was one of the best days of my life and I can't believe how stress-free it was once I got there. Thank you Thank you!
Secrets Playa Mujeres, Mexico, Destination Wedding
I have never used a travel agent before Lia. I have always been the "I can do everything cheaper by myself on the internet" type person; most of the time, it works great. When my husband and I decided to have a destination wedding, we were not sure about anything - number of guests, length of stay, etc; we also have very demanding jobs, requiring constant travels up until the week before our wedding. So we thought that a travel agent may be a lifesaver; as it turned out, she was. Lia was endorsed as an expert in destination weddings on the American Express Travel website. Although she lived over a 1,000 miles away, I felt comfortable.
As I am not a "girly" person, wedding planning was not my thing; however, party planning and event coordination are. Lia and I treated this "event" like a business and I loved that about her; I needed someone to be truthful and provide honest advice. As it is with my job, I like corresponding via emails because I can have all the information on hand and in writing at all time; Lia always accommodated that, and always very promptly. I'm not talking about several emails over a few months; I'm talking about over the course of over a year. Lia was there to provide support when I had a hard time reach the wedding coordinator; she was there when I freaked out at the resort regarding my brother's return transportation (as it turned out, my brother spoke with the wrong transportation company); she was organized to be able to provide me with spreadsheet of all guest arrival information; she always submitted my requests to Classic Vacation and the resort promptly. James and I cannot thank Lia enough to make everything go smoothly for the biggest event of our lives. All 48 of us had such a great time that we absolutely see another group vacation in the future.

Beach Palace Cancun, Mexico, Destination Wedding
Lia being referred to me saved me so much wedding planning mental anguish! I had tried with a few other travel agents before I had two different people give me Lia's name, and with each of the previous TAs they had to look into things and call me back (I'm still waiting for those calls). Getting in touch with Lia was a whole new experience, she answered all my initial questions in that first phone call, had so many recommendations, and it was obvious she knew exactly what she was doing. By the time we hung up the first phone call, I had decided on a destination and venue (per Lia's suggestion). She was a God send! A year later, we are still having people talk about what a great trip it was and people are always amazed by what a great turn out we had. We ended up with about 60 people, all booking through Lia and everyone had a flawless experience. One even asked for her name when planning her destination wedding a few months later and was just as pleased! Lia told me a lot through the planning process that I was such a laid-back bride, but it really was because she left me nothing to worry about. She answered any question I had, was always quick to respond to calls and emails, and helped me plan the most perfect wedding ever. I wish I could re-live it all again!!
Cozumel Palace, Mexico, Destination Wedding
My husband Cameron and I got married at the Cozumel Palace in June of 2014 and could not have been more happy with our experience. A destination wedding was definitely the way to go for us and Lia was a great asset in our planning.
Throughout the process we felt completely at ease as she handled some of the most important details of planning for this special time. From her first recommendations of resorts and destinations to her help arranging travel for our closest family and friends we always felt grateful having Lia on our side. We highly recommend Lia Vincent and Palace Resorts for your destination wedding!
Le Blanc Spa Resort, Destination Wedding
I am truly so grateful for you and all of your help! Le Blanc was amazing! NOTHING could have been better, except maybe the weather, but the staff, food, and service were above and beyond! We will definitely go back there!! Love, Love, Love you for all of your help - Can NOT thank you enough!!
Beach Palace, Cancun, Mexico, Destination Wedding
Our Dream Wedding!
Lia was a phenomenal help from the beginning. She was referred to me by a friend, and I was incredibly thankful that we used her. When we started planning, we became overwhelmed with all of the information that is available.
We met with her for about 45 minutes one afternoon, took her pictures of spaces we had seen online and liked, and gave her a list of our "must-haves", a list of things that would be nice but didn't matter too much, and a list of things we absolutely did NOT want. She kind of thought about things for a minute, and then listed 3 resorts that fit every single one of our needs. She then ran sample pricing from EVERY location our guests would be traveling from so we could figure out what best fit our and our guests' travel budgets. After about a million more questions from me, we finally settled on her initial recommendation, the Beach Palace in Cancun. As we went through the process, any time I had a question, problem, or was just worried about something not being right, she was my go-to person. I'm not kidding, she would answer me in like, less than an hour 99% of the time. She even took my file home one weekend to give me more time to figure something out before she ran credit cards and got it booked. She was a Godsend!
Riu Palace, Riviera Maya, Mexico, Destination Wedding
My husband Cameron and I got married at the Cozumel Palace in June of 2014 and could not have been more happy with our experience. A destination wedding was definitely the way to go for us and Lia was a great asset in our planning.
Lia with Lia helped us plan our destination wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico. We had a total of 11 people and she helped each of them set up their arrangements. From the beginning she was so helpful and always quick to respond. She made the entire process a breeze. She communicated with the wedding coordinator at the Riu Palace and made sure everything was just like we wanted. We did not have any issues at all, thanks to Lia and all of her thorough planning. Each of our guests bragged on her and said how easy it was to work with her. I would recommend Lia for all of your planning needs whether it be just a short vacation or a destination wedding. She knows what she is doing and will make sure all of your questions are answered and that you have the best vacation.
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, Destination Wedding
My husband and I got married in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico right off the beach. It was pure bliss, and everything I could have ever dreamed of! I may be biased, but destination weddings are certainly the way to go and thanks to our wonderful Travel Agent Lia Vincent at Vincent Vacations, we were able to find the perfect place! I had the opportunity to be able to edit the straight out of camera photos from my wedding! Here is a glimpse of our wedding day in paradise!

Excellence, Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, Destination Wedding
"It was beautiful! Everybody had a fantastic time!"
The staff was wonderful, the rooms were gorgeous, and the food was AMAZING! Our wedding could not have been more perfect and if you have any brides that want a beautiful wedding on a budget, The Excellence Punta Cana would be my number one recommendation. Emy and Livia were fantastic and everything was just PERFECT! Chris couldn't even believe how wonderful it was.
Thank you again for all of your help!!!
Dreams, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, Destination Wedding
Our Dream Wedding!
As soon as Jimmy asked me to marry him, I knew we would want a destination wedding. We love to travel, and we love the beach, so there was no more perfect place to start our lives together than a beach in Mexico!
I am not the wedding planning type, and I knew that with a destination wedding, we could get someone else to plan the details for us. Luckily for me, my friend Lia at Vincent Vacations specializes in Destination Weddings. Lia had taken care of trips for us in the past, and I knew she was the perfect person to help me plan this trip. I was right! She helped me look through destinations, and we found the perfect spot: Dreams in Puerto Vallarta! The package came with a wedding planner, who took care of the details for me. 21 of our friends and family came with us, and everyone loved the resort. Our party ranged in age from 7 to 82, and everyone agreed it was an amazing trip. There were activities for the kids, and plenty of excursions for everyone to choose from. The staff was wonderful, and pampered us from the time we arrived. One of my bridesmaids had a broken foot and was on crutches, and was in a wheelchair some. The hotel staff assisted her anytime she needed it, including carrying her and her wheelchair up and down large flights of stairs. They were amazing! All the rooms are ocean front, with beautiful views. Jimmy and I stayed in the "Preferred" tower, and our room came with a great balcony with a hot tub! Most of our guests stayed in the other tower, but the resort is small enough, this was not a problem at all. They all loved their rooms as well. The wedding planner met with me in advance to work out the last minute details and timing. When our wedding day came, everything went perfectly. We got married on the beach right in front of the ocean. We had a sound system and a dj who played all the songs that we picked out in advance. My Dad is a minister, and he performed the service for us. We had 21 in our wedding party, but it felt like a much bigger wedding because lots of people watched the wedding. You could see people everywhere on their balconies watching, which made us feel like rock stars. We had a Mexican band that played a few songs after the wedding. The wedding came with a photographer and videographer who did amazing job! We took pictures right after the wedding, then we had dinner which also came with the wedding. We had steak and chicken which tasted great. Of course, I also asked them for chips and guacamole. (I love the guacamole in Mexico.) They were happy to oblige. They provided the wedding cake after which was amazing. After the wedding, my husband and I stayed for another 4 days, and it was paradise. I could not have asked for a more beautiful place to get married, or a less stressful way to do it. Thanks Lia and Vincent Vacations for making our special day an amazingly unforgettable experience!

Grand Fiesta Americana, Los Cabos, Mexico, Destination Wedding
This was the best and easiest decision we made about our entire wedding! Lia at All Inclusive Weddings is the absolute best, extremely intelligent, hard working, and so caring. She truly makes you feel like you are her only client throughout the entire process. We had about 120 people coming to our Cabo wedding and even had to switch resorts, visitors coming from all different states and even Europe. She was calm, and kept the bride and groom calm! Every detail was taken care of and it was made to be the most perfect wedding!
Finest, Playa Mujeres, Mexico, Destination Wedding
I just wanted to thank you for all your hard work to arrange the hotel and transfers for Ashley and Robbie's wedding. It was perfect and everything that she had ever dreamed of! The resort was amazing! We had great food at all the restaurants. The staff went over the top to accommodate any needs that you could have had! Everyone felt safe and the beaches are beautiful. Since it's more private you don't get the crazy vendors walking the beach trying to sell you stuff. Our family loved it so much and we defiantly will be planning another vacation. You will be the first I call if we need help to organize something! Thank you again for everything
We have been in business since 2013, and booking destination weddings since 2002!
