Our Honeymoon in Grenada + 1st Anniversary Trip

As I sit here trying to narrow down the destinations for our 1st Anniversary trip, my mind instantly goes back to our tropical paradise where we spent 7 days of pure relaxation. Grenada is located off the Venezuela coast and is widely known as the Spice of the Caribbean. The white sand beaches, crystal clear water, unspoilt landscapes, and the mountainous rainforest are just a few reasons why we loved our time there. Not to mention, the hospitality that we received from some of the friendliest natives has us wanting to return as soon as possible.   
We stayed at Sandals LaSource Grenada Resort & Spa which has been newly renovated and was a truly extraordinary resort. On the property, there are 10 restaurants and bars that had delicious food and lots of entertainment throughout the day and evening. We enjoyed a lot of the activities that were on-site as well - beach volleyball, bocci ball, paddle boarding, kayaking and of course an afternoon was spent at the spa.  

Our humble abode for the week was the bottom right suite where we had the most breathtaking ocean views every morning and gorgeous sunsets at night. I was one happy wife! :)
This view from our balcony never got old. I spent many mornings here with a cup of coffee and a good book in my hand. Now, if only I could convince TC that we should book our Anniversary trip back to this beautiful, little island.  
It's going to be difficult to beat that trip but I have my eye on a few places for our Anniversary and would love your help! What other destinations should I consider?

  5. This looks AMAZING! We went to Riviera Maya on our honeymoon and are headed to Punta Cana in September. We went to Bermuda a few years ago and while it is super pricey, it was the most amazing place I've ever been. I highly recommend it! :)

  9. This looks so beautiful! We're heading to California in a few weeks to celebrate our first anniversary since that's where we left for our honeymoon from but Key West sounds like a great option to me!
