Grenada: Spice Island Beach Resort

A three-mile drive from the airport takes you to this family-run boutique resort on the largest of the so-called Spice Islands in the Grenadines (known for bounteous crops of nutmeg and mace). In the lavish suites, you'll find flat panel HDTVs, some with Bose soud systems. Listen to your favorite iPod playlist while lounging on the chaises on your private patio or balcony overlooking the tree-studded shores of Grand Anse Beach.

Go Ahead, Indulge: The open-air beachfront restaurant, Oliver's, takes full advantage of its abundant herb garden, serving up island favorites like twice-baked callaloo souffle.

Make A Date: Enjoy the sights and sensory delights--from a whiff of cinnamon to the sounds of steel-drum calypso--at the spice-and craft market off Grand Anse Beach; grenadagrenadines.com/detail/grand-anse-craft-spice-market.

Best Sunset: Go for a cruise along Grenada's leeward coast as night falls.

Rates: From $618; 473/444-4258 or e-mail reservations@spiceisle.com
