The Grenada Solution
Silversands Grenada and Mandarin Oriental, Canouan are perfect destinations for the luxury traveler.

The Caribbean is a clear “fan favorite” here at SmartFlyer, both with our advisors and our clients. Naturally, I invariably take the opportunity to visit new-and-noteworthy resorts in the region.
Silversands Grenada
When Silversands Grenada Director of Sales and Marketing Jorge Collazo invited me to come for a stay this winter, I jumped at the chance. I shared a four-bedroom Beach Villa with my traveling companions, and we had easy access to 700 feet of beachfront—which is what our clients love! The resort, its gorgeous beach and the island itself serve as the perfect remedy for clients looking to escape the cold.
Although Grenada is an island that isn’t always top of mind, it’s a one-stop flight from many U.S. and European points, with nonstop air service from New York, Miami, Atlanta and London. (Look for the GND IATA code.)
The 52-room property, which is a member of the Leading Hotels of the World, is ideally suited for urban couples who are partial to modern design and technology, families with teenagers and older children, and travelers who like an exclusive environment without feeling like they are in the middle of nowhere.
Mandarin Oriental, Canouan
Another option to consider for your clients is Mandarin Oriental, Canouan, which is set on the island of the same name and is a 20-minute, private plane ride from Grenada.
I arrived on the resort’s Citation Jet, which is available at reasonable prices to shuttle guests in from neighboring islands.
Duarte Correia, the Portuguese GM with years of experience in Africa and Asia, is bringing a new vision to the resort. He met me on the tarmac and we drove to the resort together.
My Penthouse suite was spectacular. Every accommodation includes the services of a butler. Within an hour, Lenny, my butler, knew how to read me—which is a true definition of luxury!
Although I am not a golfer, it was nonetheless fun to have drinks on the 13th hole, where you can see neighboring islands like Mustique.
Keep Silversands Grenada and Mandarin Oriental, Canouan in mind the next time a client is looking for a relaxing Caribbean getaway with great beaches, weather and food.
