I almost don't want to write this review as I'd like to keep this island and hotel a secret, but the staff deserves their praises. This destination is certainly not for late night partiers or those looking for lots of action. If you want seclusion and beautiful beaches to yourself, this may be your place. The hotel staff was great... more

We loved the Tamarind! We have been to over 20 Caribbean islandsand found this to be one of our favorite places to stay. Everything was perfect-the room was charming-good AC, great shower, comfortable mattress-everyting worked perfectly. The grounds are beautifully kept. I think what Iiked best was that when you opened your door the gorgeous beach with its white sand... more

We were looking for a break in March involving the sun, a clean beach and few people around. We found exactly that place in Canouan Island. We stayed at Tamarind for four nights during March 2007. The hotel is exactly as promised, friendly staff, non-intrusive service, a great Italian restaurant and a clean, long beach. The island itself is a... more

After one week on Young Island (see other review) we arrived at the Tamarind. When we arrived at the airport there was no one there to greet us but the customs agent was so friendly he called the hotel for us. Mozart was there within a few minutes. Mozart was so pleasant and gave a tour of the island as... more

My wife and I had a 9 night stay at the Tamarind Beach hotel in Canouan in January / February 2007. We chose a ground floor suite (Room 308) and also selected a breakfast and dinner meal plan as we assumed (rightly) that there would be few restaurants on such a small island. The hotel was very quiet when we... more

The pictures give you an idea of the beauty of the Tamarind. Upon our arrival we were greeted as throughout our stay with some of the best genuine customer service we have ever recieved. The rooms are wonderful, the beach is private, safe, secluded, and the water crystal clear. Water bikes, floaties, wind surfing, etc... were at no charge. They... more

I've just returned from a solo trip to Canouan, having spent 5 nights at the Tamarind. I almost hate to talk about what a great place this is because much of the island's charm results from its obscurity, and I'd selfishly love to keep it that way. I arrived by plane (at least a day-long exercise for those of you... more

We stayed at the Tamarind for 1 week in November 2005 and it met all our holiday criteria of a peaceful, relaxed beach side holiday on a quiet Carribean Island. We stayed in a deluxe beach front room (the lowest class) which was plenty big enough with powerful yet quiet air-con. The beach was at our patio doors. The sea... more

The hotel itself is quite nice. Our suite was roomy and panelled with dark wood. The a/c was in the sitting room and because of the shutters it was a little difficult to really cool it down in the room. The shuttered doors could be opened for more light and the breeze, but, also would let in the mosquitos. The... more
