Islands lost in the ocean - one of the best places for relax-rest. Here they go for the sea and the sun, endless snow-white beaches and vibrant exotic nature. All this can be said about the Grenadine Islands in the Atlantic Ocean. One of them, Canuan, is actually turned into a hotel of the famous hotel chain RAFFLES.

Remember the "Pirates of the Caribbean"? The action of the film takes place against the backdrop of the picturesque landscapes of this very sea and the islands of the same name located here. Do not immediately remember exactly what part of the ocean is the Caribbean. This is something from a children's fairy tale about a happy, serene island. In fact, it turns out that this is the most reality with its place on the map - in the eastern part of the Caribbean Sea, whose waters wash Latin America from the north. Besides the Caribbean, there are many other islands in the Caribbean. Among them are the Grenadian. They were discovered by Columbus (in 1498) and quickly became the prey of the colonial powers. However, in the early 70s of the 20th century, they managed to gain independence, and now it is one of the smallest countries in the world with a population not exceeding 90 thousand people.

Amrita, translated from Sanskrit, is the "elixir of youth", which various Old Indian deities loved to feast on. The seaside location also determined the nature of the local procedures - everything connected with the sea is practiced: seaweed wraps, sea salt baths, aromatherapy and various massage programs.

In addition to individual rooms, there are four SPA-villas with names reminiscent of precious stones - lapis lazuli, peridot, jade ...
