Loved as a haven where untouched beauty meets the warmth of local hospitality, Grenada is fast becoming one of the most popular travel destinations in the Caribbean. Grenada, dubbed as the Spice of the Caribbean, is a sovereign state in the West Indies, within the Caribbean Sea.
The hot destination boasts a simple way of life, adorned with all of the luxuries provided by some of the best all-inclusive Caribbean resorts. The pure and authentic atmosphere of the island promises an instant feeling of revival, and there’s no better place to experience this than from the Spice Island Resort.
I was lucky enough to enjoy the luxurious comforts of the resort while discovering the beauty of Grenada.
How To Get To Grenada
Although a group of islands, Grenada is surprisingly accessible to many major cities around the West Indies. Several airlines fly into Grenada’s main airport – Maurice Bishop International Airport. If you are looking for optimal service, incredible packages, and ultimate convenience, then Air Canada Vacations is the way to go.
