For lovers of luxury hotels, Grenada doesn’t disappoint. We love one of the island's most recent luxury offerings, Six Senses La Sagesse Grenada, with pool suites and villas dramatically tucked into the hillside, featuring horizon-edge pools, floor-to-ceiling windows, lush, landscaped gardens, and up to four bedrooms. This being Six Senses, the spa is quite simply sensational – inspired by a traditional Caribbean fishing village, with treatment suites surrounding the water, its cutting-edge Earth Lab hosts workshops about the natural world to help ‘rewild your soul’.

Other favourites in Grenada include Spice Island, a family-run, all-suite boutique resort at the tranquil southern end of Grand Anse, with a fabulous spa, an ocean-view yoga pavilion, and complimentary snorkelling, kayaking, and cycling. There’s also Calabash, a boutique Relais & Châteaux hotel, with just 30 suites and five villas, a holistic spa, and a fine-dining restaurant to help you escape the everyday.

Grenada is a year-round destination, but a particularly wonderful time to visit is the second week of August, for Spice Mas, a celebration of colour and culture by locals and visitors alike. Unique to Spice Mas is J’ouvert with its ‘Jab Jab’ element: a street party whose name is derived from the French ‘jour ouvert’ (daybreak or morning), as it often starts before dawn and lasts until sunrise. The traditional Jab-Jab bands emerge from the darkness of the night to parade freely through the town, making this an unmissable experience for anyone visiting during this time of year.
