The 2024 full renovation means this is one of the freshest all-inclusive properties on Fuerteventura — room and common area quality is noticeably better than neighbors that last renovated a decade ago
The Wellness Double room category is unusual in this market — the built-in hydrotherapy access and included massages make it a practical spa-focused choice without paying daily spa fees
The Aquabike in the pool is a genuinely unusual amenity that guests specifically mention as a highlight
Cons
The main buffet restaurant (Maday) gets loud at full capacity — it's a large, acoustically hard space and noise carries during busy dinner services
Water sports access from Jandía beach requires going through external operators and paying extra — the AI rate covers poolside activities but not beach water sports
Sandals Grenada Resort & Spa
Pros
Pink Gin Beach is genuinely calm and swimmable — sheltered cove geometry prevents the choppy surf that affects more exposed Caribbean beaches.
Ten restaurants for 257 rooms is a high ratio, resulting in shorter waits and more consistent kitchen quality than larger Sandals properties.
Five-minute airport transfer is among the shortest in the Sandals chain — no long bus rides after a redeye.
SkyPool suites with private infinity plunge pools are architecturally distinctive and not replicated at most other properties.
PADI scuba diving up to two dives/day is included — at $80–100 per dive externally, this adds real value for certified divers.
The property's smaller, quieter personality makes it work well for couples who want intimacy over high-energy activity.
Cons
The Sandals app reservation system is unreliable — restaurants show as fully booked while tables are available, and closures go unannounced.
"Partial ocean view" and even some "ocean view" rooms deliver disappointing sightlines — verify the specific building and floor before booking.
Butler Elite categories represent a meaningful price jump; the value is clearest for guests who actually use 24-hour room service and prefer to delegate planning.
Summary
Sandals Grenada Resort & Spa has a higher guest rating, while Sandals Grenada Resort & Spa has more restaurants, while Sandals Grenada Resort & Spa is the larger property, while Sandals Grenada Resort & Spa has more dining venues, while Sandals Grenada Resort & Spa offers more activities.
