The Spice Island Is Getting an InterContinental, and It’s Discounting Opening Season

Grenada, the Caribbean nation known as the Spice Island for its nutmeg and cinnamon, is adding a new international luxury resort this month. IHG’s InterContinental Grenada Resort & Spa is scheduled to open in November 2026 on La Sagesse Bay, on the island’s quieter southeastern coast, according to PAX News. The property has 120 rooms and more than 20,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor event space, positioning it for both leisure travelers and destination weddings or small corporate retreats.

The resort is built around a full slate of amenities. There are five dining options, a spa and wellness retreat, a fitness center, a pool and a beach club. Active guests can play pickleball or padel or join Pilates sessions, and families get Planet Trekkers, the kids’ program used across InterContinental resorts. La Sagesse sits away from the busier Grand Anse area near the capital, St. George’s, so the setting should feel more secluded than many of the island’s established hotels.

To fill rooms in its first months, the resort is offering an introductory deal of 40% off its Best Available Rate for stays through January 2027. The package includes daily breakfast, a welcome cocktail and a possible room upgrade, subject to availability. Holiday programming is also planned, with events on Boxing Day and New Year’s Eve, including a sushi and Champagne evening featuring a toast for IHG One Rewards members. Exact pricing and full terms were not published in the announcement.

For IHG One Rewards members, the opening adds a new place to earn and potentially redeem points in the southern Caribbean. As with any brand-new hotel, early guests may encounter some opening-period rough edges while staff settle in, which is partly why introductory discounts exist. Travelers considering a winter trip should confirm the exact opening date with the hotel before booking flights, and compare the discounted rate with points pricing once award availability appears.
