The Spice Island

Our first encounter with the Caribbean took us to the Spice Island; Grenada, which could also been known as the island of rum...but more on that later!

Thanks to the generosity of Chris' Mum (Carol) we were about to experience our first ever all-inclusive holiday with Chris Sister (Sarah) and partner John. Well if you're going to do an all-inclusive anywhere, the Caribbean is most definitely the place to do it!

Home from home

Grenada is one of the southern Caribbean isles and because of this it wasn't swarming in package holiday goers, mainly retirees staying for one – two months many of whom came back year on year because of just this reason (they’d practically moved in!). It's also known for being one of the safer and most friendly so when it came to choosing which island to make our destination we were easily swayed by the sound of this little paradise.

On arrival we were hit by the hot air, with temperatures averaging 30 degrees, we were very grateful as our rep met us with bottles of ice cold water as we transferred to our resort of choice The Cobaya Beach Resort.
