We have just returned home from Canuoan on a 14 day vacation. This was our second time staying at the Tamarind Beach Hotel. We we returned there because we love the quiet and friendly qualities of the Tamarind. The hotel staff was super attentive and gracious. We came back for a second time specifically because of the beautiful rooms right... More

We booked the Tamarind for our honeymoon, as we were looking for a very quiet beach destination to twin with New York. We definitely didn't want a big Sandals-type resort and the Tamarind was perfect for us. After a 14-hour trip from NY the airport collection was friendly and the waiting cocktail very welcome. We were delighted to find that... More

Toured the Grenadines for a month in January and were so lucky we ended up here after staying on St Vincent, Bequia and Union Island. While staying on Union we attempted to get a room on nearby Palm Island. Having made repeated calls both ourself and by a local contact and even a direct visit to Palm Island we were... More

Pros: - The rooms are beautiful. We stayed in a suite and the layout and furniture were beautiful and comfortable. - The dinner menu is limited however, they will make anything you want. For example, our first night, the menu listed only a handful of items which were all Italian- pastas and pizzas. We ordered most of our dinner off... More

We have just returned from a heavenly week down in Canouan. We were staying at the Tamarind Beach Hotel, the more intimate resort on the island. All of the people working at the hotel could not have been friendlier, more welcoming, and helpful. We took advantage of some of the activities offered -- such as an island tour by a... More

Both Tamarind and Raffles share the same owners. All staff members are very courteous and genuinely friendly. They will try their best to get you anything you wish for on the island. The management team is Italian and they freely interact with the guests, giving a warm homely feeling. The menus definitely reflect an Italian nature. The food is unique,... More

Prior to visiting the Caribbean, you are always told that the 'people are warm and friendly,' but most times, that is not the case. (as a citizen and resident of the Caribbean, I can tell you this for a fact since a lot has changed over the years.) At Tamarind we met the most kind, well-mannered and 'down to earth'... More

Canouan is one of the most beautiful islands in the Caribbean. In fact, it has a bit of a South Pacific feel to it that is missing in other parts of the region. The beaches are amazing, the water is spectacular, and the island features a simple, chilled-out lifestyle. Perhaps it remains such a pristine island because it is almost... More

The hotel was what I always dreamed the caribians should be! We have been to many hotels in that area but the Tamarind Beach Hotel was really different : the food (thanks to Angelo and his staff), the atmosphere (mostly created by an outstanding and very competent young man by the name of Steven, the room division manager) and the...
