Known as “The Spice Isle,” Grenada has a reputation of having more spices per square mile than anywhere else in the world. Along with this claim to fame, the island flaunts vibrant coral reef formations, lush tropical forests, rum distilleries and historic forts, attracting travelers ranging from eco-tourists to diving enthusiasts to leisure sets.

Visitors to the island enjoy the picturesque capital of St. George’s with its colonial architecture and historic sites, and other Grenada attractions include marine parks for snorkeling and forests full of trekking trails. Vacationers enjoy the cuisine served up in Grenada restaurants, befitting of the Spice Island and reflecting its Creole and West Indian heritage.

Among the more notable Grenada hotels and resorts are the secluded and private LaLuna resort on the southwestern tip of the island, the wellness-oriented La Source hotel set on Pink Gin Beach and the boutique-style Spice Island Beach Resort on Grand Anse Beach.
