- St. Vincent & the Grenadines: The New Paradise for A-Listers Seeking Serenity
Like moths drawn to a flame, Hollywood celebrities have been descending upon the island nation of St. Vincent and the Grenadines for vacations in recent times.
The roster shines like a constellation, featuring Taye Diggs, Joe Manganiello, Robert Downey Jr., and Anne Hathaway. In 2024, like a trio of stars shining brightly in the night sky, Lionel Richie, Gabrielle Union-Wade, and Devalle Ellis graced the island with their presence.
Diggs who became famous for his role in “How Stella Got Her Groove Back,” touched down in St. Vincent on his birthday, January 2nd, as if the universe had conspired to celebrate him.
St. Vincent Times understands he is basking in the ambience of the Sandals Resort in Buccament. Manganiello, his girlfriend Caitlin O’Connor and his Chihuahua, Bubbles, spent Christmas week at Sandals celebrating his 48th birthday.
They stayed in a private, luxurious, two-story overwater villa with a beautiful beach, where they spent a lot of time swimming.
Manganiello, like a painter with a brush, crafted a message on his Facebook page:
“Christmas in the Caribbean at The Sandals Resort at St. Vincent & The Grenadines… What an incredible vacation. It was just what I needed to unwind after a busy year of work and travel. Nothing like spending sunsets jumping off of the overwater bungalow balcony into the Caribbean… can’t wait to go back.”
