| Raffles Resort Canouan is an ultra-luxury resort located on picturesque Canouan Island in the Grenadines adjacent to Mustique. Set within 800 private acres of unspoilt flora and fauna, the resort blends unobtrusively into its surroundings and overlooks a wonderfully secluded bay edged by a long coral reef. The resort boasts a par 72, 18 hole (currently 13 greens, to be 18 starting in 2003) golf course which covers sixty acres along the sea front.
The Piazza is the heart of the resort where you will find the Club House, the boutiques of Italian fashion houses, the gourmet Italian restaurant La Piazza, the beauty salon and the health centre. No detail has been neglected in the effort to ensure that it feels like your own exclusive, personal refuge from the stress of everyday life. From the subtle, essentially pastel colour schemes, to the refinement of Bulgari body-care products based on green tea. The resort offers two vast, beautiful beaches with endless expanses of fine sand and luxuriant vegetation. And for those who seek a solitary encounter with nature, there are other bays on Canouan. Smaller, deserted, and isolated. There is also a huge swimming pool and oversized hammocks for you to kick back and relax Caribbean style.
To add that extra bit of interest for avid golfers, half of the 18 par golf course has been landscaped along the flat coastal plain and half carved out of the hillside. The many facilities near the beach allow for uninterrupted days of sun-bathing, and include The Beach Club restaurant just a few sandy footprints away from the sea, where you can enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner.
