Canouan Island
Raffles Resort Canouan Island, The Grenadines. A private retreat from the world, where the villas look out over a bay edged by a coral reef; where golfing is a challenge, scuba diving perfect and gambling at Villa Monte Carlo supreme.
|
More Info: Raffles Resort Canouan Island is located on Canouan Island in the heart of the Grenadines in the southeastern Caribbean. The resort is set on 300 acres of a 1,200 acre private estate featuring three secluded white sand beaches, all surrounded by one of the world’s largest coral reefs. The new Raffles Resort is amphitheatrically set around the protected bay with each of the 156 single and double-storey luxury villas offering breathtaking views.
High on a hill overlooking the northern Grenadines, with sweeping views over the resort and the reef, is the exclusive Villa Monte Carlo. Located here will be the European-style casino - Trump Club Privee, La Varenne - a European gourmet restaurant, as well as an elegant ballroom for private functions.
One defining difference at Raffles Resort Canouan Island is the size of the accommodations. Each of our guestrooms have an area of no less than 600 square feet and all have private covered patios or terraces with comfortable lounge chairs and views overlooking the beach and sea.
Accommodations include garden and ocean view rooms, and suites with one, two, three or four bedrooms. All rooms feature spacious comfortably appointed living rooms, separate bedrooms and large walk-in closets. The suites offer enormous living areas with separate full bathrooms and some offer fully equipped kitchenettes. Private plunge pools have recently been added to a number of the suites.
Nearby Attractions: The choice is yours. Whether you prefer a view of the sea from one of the Caribbean's biggest swimming pools, swim in the crystal blue waters of the bay or perhaps gaze out lazily from your relaxing hammock in the shade cast by a straw canopy. At Raffles Resort Canouan Island, you can do what you like.
The Golf Course The Trump International Golf Club at Raffles Resort Canouan Island, is where golfers will believe that they have found heaven on earth. It is home to the resort's challenging 18-hole, par 72 golf course, designed by Jim Fazio. Offering unparalleled views of the bay, the course stretches 60-acres along the sea front, half of which is built on the flat coastal plain and the other half of which is carved out of the hillside above the bay and the resort. Golf instruction, carts, and rental clubs are available.
