There is nowhere better to soak up the sun than in the Caribbean. And if you want to experience glorious climate, pristine beaches, breathtaking landscapes, rich culture, unique history and scrumptious cuisine, Grenada should definitely be part of your itinerary.
Although a relatively small island (you can be hiking through the rainforest in the morning and be on the beach by the afternoon), this island offers many amenities, including Grenada hotels that offer great facilities and service. However, what seems to set this island apart from its sister islands is the lack of commercialisation and tourism, making the island less crowded and more laid-back. Listed below are our reasons why this spice island is the perfect place for your family vacation.
A chocolate lover's dream
If you have always wanted to see wall-to-wall chocolate, a visit to the Grenada Chocolate Company is a must. Chocolate lovers will find this island to be sheer paradise, and will no doubt be eager to take some samples back to their Grenada hotels. Founded in 1999, the Chocolate Company produces incredible organic dark chocolate using the island's world-famous cocoa beans. Nestled in lush cocoa groves in the pristine rainforest, its award-winning chocolate has a unique and complex flavour. Produced only in small batches and using the freshest of ingredients, this chocolate is luxurious, rich, and would satisfy the most nitpicky of chocolate addicts. Be sure to visit the gift shop after the tour for a few (or a few dozen) bars to take home. Trust us, you will want to stock up. After all, the London Guardian called them 'probably the best chocolate in the world'.
