GRENADA is often overlooked as a holiday destination – despite direct UK flights and being one of the safest islands.
And the Caribbean destination is set to be big next year, according to experts.
Around 180,000 tourists visited the island in 2023 – compared to 1.26million visiting Aruba.
According to Grenada Tourism, while more than half of tourists are America, UK tourists are higher in luxury resorts.
Grenada Tourism CEO Petra Roach said: “The British visitor will stay longer which means their contribution is quite strong.
“We really want to continue to focus on this and grow the market more.”
New resorts have opened in this year, including Six Senses La Sagesse in the south of the island, with 56 pool suites and 15 villas.
There was also Silversands Beach House, with 28 suites on top of a cliff, so expect amazing views.
Otherwise the already opened Silversands Grand Ans is home to the Caribbean‘s longest pool, with an 100 metre infinity pool.
And new in 2026 will be a third Silversands resort as well as an InterContinental hotel.
Luxury travel experts have also said Grenada is to be a big destination for 2025.
OvationNetwork travel advisor Sylvia Lebovitch told Forbes: “With the opening of the new Six Senses La Sagasse and the Silversands Beach House, Grenada is back on the map.”
Grenada is known for being a great place for chocolate lovers, with six cocoa plantations on the island.
Every May, there is even the annual Grenada Chocolate Festival with workshops and activities as well as free samples.
It doesn’t have to be a pricey holiday either, with this year’s Post Office report finding a bottle of beer will cost you just £1.50 on Grenada.
Don’t skip out on the rum either, the Grenada being home to the oldest rum distillery in the Caribbean.
Otherwise the island is also known for its beautiful waterfalls, one of the most famous being Annadelle Falls, as well as turtle watching and diving.
With 40 beaches to choose from, make sure to visit Grand Anse Beach, named one of the World’s 50 Beaches.
You might even spot some celebs. Back in 2019, Robert Downey Jr was spotted on the island, with other famous faces including Morgan Freeman and Eric Clapton.
And Richard Branson also visited the island to celebrate the launch of Virgin flights to Grenada back in 2002.
Flights from the UK can be found from London Heathrow, taking around 11 hours.
Both British Airways and Virgin Atlantic offer the routes, with a short one-hour stop in Barbados although passengers remain on the plane.
They also both offer package holidays, along with TUI who have seven nights from £1,271pp.
Hayley Coyle visited Grenada earlier this year.
“A ten-hour flight away from the UK, Grenada is touted by locals and returning holidaymakers as the “safest island in the West Indies”.
“It is arguably the friendliest, too, with everyone eager to wax lyrical about their homeland.
“I was spoilt by Grenada’s intensely rich, dark chocolate — for the Land of Spice, as it’s known, is also home to six trailblazing cocoa plantations.
“Cacao — the raw, unroasted version of cocoa — is grown within 20 degrees of the equator and this island’s warm weather, rainforests and mountains provide the ideal environment for it to thrive.
“May is the perfect time for a chocoholic to visit, when the annual Grenada Chocolate Festival is in full swing.
“So, if you are looking for a treat during Easter, why not ditch the eggs and splash out on a trip to this island?”
We’ve found the cheapest Caribbean island for all-inclusive holidays, which are as little as £774pp.
But if you don’t want to go that far, here is the holiday destination a few hours from the UK dubbed the “cheaper Caribbean”.
WHEN you head out on a first date, you never know how it will turn out which is all part of the excitement.
But one woman was left horrified when she realised her date was a killer.
Taking to social media, the woman revealed she was 18 at the time and working in a luxury hotel and she had the hots for the maintenance man working there as well.
He apparently ticked all the boxes as she stated the 25-year-old was ‘handsome, hardworking and funny.’
Over time the pair developed a friendship working together and a few months later he asked her out for a drink.
she decided it wouldn’t do any harm so the pair met up for dinner and drinks and seemed to have a great time until she asked one vital question.
She decided to ask him what his last name was which he said was ‘White’ obviously she thought nothing of it at the time and they continued with the date.
But later, whilst working, she realised he had a different name on his name tag – ‘Morrison.’
She said: “I never questioned this to him but immediately found this to be very strange…”
Later, when she got home she told her mum about the encounter, and she immediately thought it was a ‘red flag.’
Her mum later had come rushing up the stairs in a panic after she started to investigate.
“A few hours later she comes up to my room with panic saying that the very man I went on a date with had beat someone to death when he was 17, he bullied and chased the younger victim to a dead end where he acted out a prolonged and viscous attack that was so severe that the victim had to have a closed coffin,” she added.
“My mum is an avid investigator when it comes to these things, we never went out again but I did have to see him at work which made it very awkward.”
She shared her story on the Reddit forum Creepy Encounters adding other stories of people she had met who had committed crimes.
“A few years ago a friend of mine from school also stabbed a man to death, and another friend punched someone in the face and they died as a result of injury,” she revealed.
People were quick to comment on the post, claiming you should always trust your mother.
Keeping safe on a first date is crucial. Here are some tips to help ensure your safety:
Remember, it’s perfectly okay to prioritise your safety and comfort on a first date.
One person wrote: “Wow! Your mom should be a private eye!”
Another commented: “Classic mum instinct.”
“Listen to your mum. She knows better,” penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “How the heck is this guy employed as maintenance man! That is so scary and I’m glad you’re ok!”
“Why was he out of jail? That seems very unsafe,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “I am so glad you stayed safe, and that your mom is as savvy as she is! She is an absolute hero.”
