A Gluten-Free Getaway at Sandals St. Vincent
Sandals St. Vincent is a luxurious, all-inclusive adults-only escape set amid lush landscapes and untouched beaches in the heart of the Caribbean. Whether you're traveling as a couple, with friends, or as part of a group, this resort offers the perfect balance of serenity, adventure—and yes, a worry-free gluten-free experience.
As someone who travels and must eat gluten-free, I know the stress that can come with travel. However, Sandals resorts take gluten-free seriously, and Sandals St. Vincent is no exception.

“We are both gluten-free, and all restaurants we ate at were able to fully accommodate us! At Butch’s steakhouse, Milan our waiter, would always go above and beyond in ensuring that we were consuming gluten-free foods.”

Liquid Sunshine, Island Style
Even though rain doesn’t seem like an ideal situation for a vacation, Sandals St. Vincent has plans in place for when the “liquid sunshine” comes about! Because St. Vincent is closer to the equator, it has far more lush vegetation that other Caribbean islands, but also gets more rain. Rain in the Caribbean is brief and infrequent, but Saint Vincent has provided opportunities for guests to have an uninterrupted vacation and show the uniqueness of the resort!
Rain Concierge - Get popcorn and snacks delivered to the media room for movie night, ask for some games to play, or a book to read for some quiet relaxation!
Rain Relaxation Experience - Take part in guided yoga and stretching while listening to the soothing and tranquil sounds of the rain.
Rain Dance - This event at the Beach Club is a really unique experience for guests to dance in the rain to the pop-up drummers, and at night there’s colorful lighting and drum paint!
Island Trivia Bingo - An indoor game that's a mix of bingo and trivia about Caribbean history (plus rum and pirates)!
Rain Photoshoot - What’s more romantic than taking pictures in the rain? Get a snapshot to remember the beautiful vacation memories made.
My Takeaways & Tips
Layout - I love the layout of this resort! It is very walkable, and they also provide bikes to ride around on! There’s also a plaza area where some of the restaurants are, so it creates a wonderful atmosphere to hang out.
Outlets - By law, there are no outlets in the bathroom, so if you need to style your hair, you’ll have to bring an extension cord! There's a US outlet located on each side of the bed.
Scuba Diving - If you are a scuba diver and are certified, you can get two free dives per day. Want to learn? They have beginner lessons for a fee.
Complimentary Bicycles - They have non-motorized bicycles littered throughout the resort, so you can just get one and take off to explore!
So if you’re dreaming of a Caribbean escape but worried about gluten-free dining, let Sandals St. Vincent put your mind at ease. Sun, sea, and serenity await, with no side of gluten.
