Grande Anse beach on Grenada's southwestern coast had long been the island's most coveted strip of white sand, but serious architectural ambition arrived there only in 2017 when Silversands Grenada opened as the Caribbean's first genuinely contemporary ultra-luxury resort. The three-storey building, designed by the London-based firm Goddard Littlefair with local architectural input, deploys a language of dark hardwood vertical fins, glass-railed balconies, and a low-pitched green roof that echoes the island's plantation vernacular without quoting it directly. Lush bamboo and royal palms planted immediately against the facade blur the boundary between building and landscape, so the structure from the pool side carries the feeling of something that grew here rather than arrived. The 43 rooms and suites are finished in a palette of pale oak slatted millwork, polished concrete floors softened by wide-plank timber zones, and tightly edited furniture — rattan bucket chairs, tulip-base side tables in matte black, linen daybed benches — that keeps the focus on the framed Caribbean horizon beyond the full-width sliding glass walls. The lobby bar extends that grammar outward through steel-framed bifold glass panels onto a covered terrace, its slatted timber ceiling continuing the exterior fin motif into the interior. A narrow reflecting pool draws an axis from the building directly to the sea, lined with dark timber pergolas and woven-rope outdoor chairs that hold the composition in place without overwhelming it.
