Mount Cinnamon

About Mount Cinnamon

Grenada has a long way to go before it’s quite as heavily traveled as some of its Caribbean neighbors, but its charms are immediately familiar; it’s got the mild climate, the relaxed pace, the idyllic vistas and the gentle white-sand beaches for which this part of the world is so well loved. And the “Spice Isle” has at least one high-end, small-scale luxury resort to rival the best of them: Mount Cinnamon, on the perfectly picturesque Grand Anse beach, threatens to establish Grenada as a first-tier jet-set destination. (It doesn’t hurt that it’s outside the hurricane belt, either.) With just 28 suites and villas, it’s smallish, and feels correspondingly intimate. The loose scatter of terra cotta structures conceals some surprisingly contemporary interiors, a sort of clean-lined take on the Greek island style — there’s not a floral-print bedspread in sight, and a welcome scarcity of wicker and rattan. And the comforts range from the merely high-end to the truly extravagant; Nespresso machines and swanky modern bathrooms are standard, and the villas add full kitchens and outdoor living areas with sweeping views. In keeping with Mount Cinnamon’s intimate scale, you won’t find mega-resort services — just a beach club that turns out to have more or less everything you’ll need, from a bar and an all-day barbecue to a yoga room and a variety of water sports. And what you can’t find there — namely breakfast and dinner — you’ll find in Savvy’s, Mount Cinnamon’s restaurant. How to get there: Direct flights to Grenada are available from Miami, Atlanta, New York, Toronto, and London. Mount Cinnamon is a 15-minute drive from the airport.
