Marking the brand’s debut resort in the Caribbean, Six Senses La Sagesse, Grenada, part of Intercontinental Hotels Group’s (IHG) luxury and lifestyle portfolio, is set on a headland on the southern part of the island known for its spice and relaxed lifestyle. The resort will offer 56 guestrooms, seven one-bedroom villas and five two-bedroom villas, with no building higher than a palm tree.

Influenced by the region’s traditional architecture, the design language mimics a Caribbean village bursting with variety along the lakefront promenade and beach. The walkways through the gardens are made of repurposed nutmeg shells and cocoa skins, maintaining the connection to Grenada’s “Spice Island” heritage. The sprawling landscape caters to the active, complete with outdoor fitness trails and a jungle gym, and for the more reflective, with quiet locations for meditation, forest bathing, labyrinth walking, sensory foot reflexology, fire rituals and candlelight yoga.

The dining experience at the Great House is different each day thanks to a flexible series of rooms including a conservatory, bakery, gallery and beach dining room. There is also, a private dining room and raw bar with a display kitchen. The signature restaurant serves a mix of local, Creole-inspired dishes including plant-based and locally foraged menus. Six Senses Spa at La Sagesse is uniquely set overlooking the lagoon, designed in the style of a traditional fishing village.

In-house experts and visiting practitioners will integrate local community knowledge and draw upon age-old local traditions and the healing benefits of indigenous plants and herbs to offer a menu of specialty spa and beauty treatments, a Holistic Anti-Aging Center, Caribbean healing traditions and rejuvenation journeys. In line with the brand’s commitment to sustainability, Six Senses La Sagesse will operate on a self-sufficient and plastic-free basis. The landscaping strategy also promotes mangrove enhancement and restoration, aiming to achieve a wildlife habitat that visitors can experience under the guidance of conservation research partners.
