The Spice Island Beach Resort has been highly rated as a West Indian Vacation Spot for some time now, and with very good reason. The accommodation has been described as varying from the superb to the spectacular, varying from  beachfront suites, to garden suites, to suites on the beach with private pools. All have been upgraded in every way since Hurrican Ivan, and they are now amongst the best in the Caribbean with huge bathrooms, many with Jacuzzis as well as showers.

On balance it is much better value for money to stay in the Seagrape rooms than an Almond Luxury Suite, even if the latter does have its own plunge pool.

Each suite has Phillippe Starck fixtures, flat screen TV, DVD Players, frette linens, and Molton Brown amenities, making for an absolutely fabulous experience.

Grenada

The three islands of Grenada are to be found in the Eastern Caribbean right at the bottom end of the Windward Islands, and only 100 miles from Venezuela on the mainland. North is Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and to the south Trinidad and Tobago.

The climate of Grenada is neither too hot or too cold, varying from 75 degrees F to 87 degrees F, with the lower end being between November and February. The rainy season is between June and December but it hardly ever rains for more than an hour, and then not even every day, so the climate is eminently suitable for a Caribbean Vacation.
