Luxury Windward Island Holidays

These southernmost islands of the Lesser Antilles ooze Caribbean charm, sophistication and natural beauty from fantastic restaurants in Barbados to St. Lucia's lush, mountainous landscape. Here you can get lost in the Grenadines on your own yacht or explore Grenada's cultural heritage before collapsing on one of the many beautiful beaches.

Direct flights take you from the UK to Barbados, Grenada and St. Lucia.
 

Barbados
Direct flights, great hotels and restaurants, lively but laid-back: you can’t go wrong in Barbados. This is the perfect place for a family so why not hire a villa and stay all summer? West is best: the St. James coastline boasts the top hotels and cosmopolitan nighlife after dark.  If you're after glamour than Sandy Lane is for you.  Coral Reef is a charming classic that all the family will love and if you're after privacy, or want to play golf, rent Villa St Lucy for a week or so.
Grenada
Along with great beaches, the “Spice of the Caribbean” (with more spices per square mile than anywhere else in the world), Grenada has charm, character and style – Stay at the family run Spice Island Beach Resort - flights are direct and the hotel's only 10 minutes from the airport! 
St. Lucia
Hike through gorgeous scenery to find off-the-beaten track hotels, great diving and snorkelling, and a laid-back vibe. St. Lucia’s iconic volcanic peaks, The Pitons, provide a dramatic backdrop to your ocean view.  Views don't get much better than from your open-fronted 'Sanctuary' at Jade Mountain.  
St. Vincent and the Grenadines
Access to the Grenadine islands is by small shared charter flights from Barbados but worth the effort for the idyllic beaches, dazzlingly blue waters and perfect sailing conditions. Getting away from it all is easy in the Grenadines.
