Holistic treatments draw on local ingredients, from Grenadian cocoa bean body wraps to moringa and honey facials.
The gym
Under vaulted timber ceilings, the fitness center holds Cybex equipment alongside an open-air pavilion for yoga and pilates.
Restaurant
The Beach Club
Tables sit right on the sand for casual lunches, tapas, and weekly grill nights with live steel pan music.
At the table
Evening dinners take place beneath a vine-draped pergola, alongside poolside sushi and daily afternoon tea in the lounge.
How it began
A delayed flight stranded Leo and Lilian Garbutt on the island in 1987, prompting them to buy the inn their daughters now manage.
