Canouan Is the Charming Caribbean Island You Need to Visit Next
Upon my arrival, a 15-minute drive from the small airport led to Mandarin Oriental Canouan, a 1,200-acre property tucked away on a cliffside, like an island to itself. The hotel is as secluded as it is eye-catching, with pops of pink and white around the grounds that create a vibrancy to match the glowing turquoise ocean that serves as the property’s backyard. There are 26 suites and 13 villas, each with plush couches, en-suite marble bathrooms, high ceilings and ocean views, and even entry level rooms are a whopping 1,300 square feet. When hunger or thirst hits, guests can take their pick of five restaurants and two bars—with a wine list that rivals some of the best selections I’ve had in France.
For pampering, the resort’s Balinese-inspired spa includes 10 hillside treatment palapas where you can enjoy services ranging from sleep therapy to facials using natural ingredients from the island. Two overwater treatment palapas debuted just this year—one of the only overwater spa experiences in the Caribbean—and include a full indoor suite for the spa treatments, an outdoor balcony overlooking the water, a steam shower, full dressing rooms, and a glass floor that reveals the Caribbean Sea.
