Deal of the Week: Learn to Catch Some Zzz’s at the Caribbean’s First Sleep School

La Source, Grenada

Tons of people escape to the Caribbean for rest and relaxation each year, but for some of us it’s difficult to fully shut down even among the most soothing of island environs. More than 100 million Americans suffer from some form of sleeping disorder, according to The Sleep Wellness Institute, and though I haven’t been clinically diagnosed, I’d certainly count myself among that lot. Thankfully for us, one very special resort in Grenada is stepping up with a first of its kind Sleep School in the Caribbean!

Uncommon Buy: Soothe Away Carnival Aches & Pains with Nut-Med Spray

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Groans, moans and other associated sounds of suffering are no doubt being heard across much of the Caribbean today as revelers sort through the aftermath of the just-completed Carnival celebrations. Like no other event on earth, Carnival in the Caribbean is an epic marathon of non-stop, round-the-clock partying for days on end. All that dancing, winin’, grindin’, palancin’ and general gettin’ on bad tests the limits of even the most physically fit. For relief, I recommend this little bottle of goodness from Grenada.

Sandy

Today’s Saturday Video post is all about you guys! Well, most of you anyway…
A few weeks ago, we ran a poll on our Facebook page asking you to tell us your favorite watersports activity. As snorkeling was the overwhelming top choice, we’re sharing a cool video view of what it’s like to explore the undersea environs around Sandy Island, a truly off-the-beaten-path spec of sun-kissed perfection in the Grenadines.
Actually, Sandy Island is a satellite islet of Carriacou, the largest of the Grenadines covering 13 square miles, that together with neighboring Petite Martinique constitute two of the three primary islands that form the country of Grenada.

Deal of the Week: 35% Off Caribbean Luxury at Mount Cinnamon Resort, Grenada

Mount Cinnamon Hotel balconies, Grenada by Patrick Bennett

When I recently checked into the Mount Cinnamon Resort on Grenada, it was at the end of perhaps my favorite Caribbean travel adventure ever: an extended sailing trip through the unparalleled beauty of the Grenadines. Talk about a tough act to follow. I couldn’t help but wonder how this resort could possibly hope to be anything more than a footnote on what was already a magnificent journey?
But then I made the short drive from St. George’s Harbour to the end of Grand Anse Bay and actually saw the property — it was love at first site.

Friday Happy Hour: River Antoine Royal Grenadian Rum

DSC_2427 (1)

I don’t think I’m overstating when I say that River Antione Rum of Grenada is one of the most incredible cases of unexpected contradictions I’ve experienced in all my travels throughout the Caribbean. This rum literally has everything we could ever ask for from our favorite spirit… With one major drawback.

Caribbean Wallpaper Wednesday: Getting Lost to Find The Sendall Tunnel, Grenada

Sendall Tunnel, Grenada

When I’m traveling, I like to get lost.
I know that’s not for everyone, but I really think you learn so much more about new surroundings when you have no idea where you are or how to get where you’re going.
