DESTINATION INFORMATION

The Grenadines are a myriad of tiny islands and cays gathered together in the southern reaches of the Caribbean Sea between St Vincent and Grenada - emerald islands fringed by white sand and turquoise seas... islands that time has forgotten, but each having its own charm and sophistication.  They  do not offer a hectic nightlife and sophisticated resorts, but if you are looking to sample a 'desert island lifestyle', but in stylish and luxurious accommodation, then they are the perfect choice.

Mustique is where elegant private homes designed by Oliver Messel blend into rolling landscapes overlooking picturesque coves and white powdery beaches in an exclusive and protected holiday environment.  Just three miles long by one and a half wide, it maintains its unspoilt and sophisticated surroundings, and the unhurried, low-key atmosphere provides a haven that attracts those who wish to escape from their high-pressured lifestyles.  Whilst lotus eating is a full time pursuit, for the more active there is a range of sporting facilities including snorkelling, sailing, windsurfing, horse riding and tennis.  The ideal destination for house parties or honeymooners alike.
