Top 5 islands in the Caribbean - Saint Vincent & The Grenadines

Saint Vincent & The Grenadines

It's geography time again Blopoppers. This time I am happy to enlighten you to the joys of a luxury holiday in St Vincent and the Grenadines. Now, I know some of you are as thick as a shagpile carpet so I have supplied a map. I know, it is a local map and so it could be anywhere but take it from me that Saint Vincent & The Grenadines are a small group of Caribbean islands between the Caribbean Sea and North Atlantic Ocean, north of Trinidad and Tobago, 13 15 N, 61 12 W just in case you fancy sailing there.

If I was being simplistic, Saint Vincent & The Grenadines are a spit away from the coast of Venezuela. There you have it.

Now, your favourite villa rentals company has a lot of handsome luxury villas for rent in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Oh yes!

Very nice..Saint Vincent & The Grenadines sunset

"Why should I go to Saint Vincent & The Grenadines?" I hear you ask, well, it has been voted one of the top 5 islands of the Caribbean by Travel and Leisure World's Best 2011 Awards. That's like getting a Brit or MOBO award for making a record. Pretty cool. The reason it is pretty cool is that Travel and Leisure magazine have, for the past 16 years, published the "Worlds Best Awards" and to be placed so high is praise indeed.

Anyway. Jamaican Treasures has a host of luxury villas available for you and I will be most happy to post some on here for you to browse through.

Looking through the SV & G (I'll shorten Saint Vincent & The Grenadines to SV&G to save myself some time, if that's OK with you?) government website I see there is a Blues festival there!! being a Blues man myself, this would be excellent. They also have, like Jamaica and the rest of the Caribbean, their own Carnival. Have a look at the site for yourself, it's a bit short on laughs but long on information. http://www.gov.vc/

Villa Destiny

I bet you lot who read this Blog (Yes! both of you!) think that I have an easy time of it, adding beautiful Jamaica Villas and describing to you how wonderful this place is and how you should vist Montego Bay or Discovery Bay and so on. Nothing could be further than the truth. I have a terrible time of things.

Imagine, you work for a company with a world famous reputation (Yes. Jamaican Treasures) and they have more than 1200 luxury vacation villas worldwide and over 300 villas in Jamaica alone. You have to describe each villa in it's own rite and find something different to say about each????

As it happens, they are all beautiful, they are all delightful and they all offer you luxury and fantastic locations. Some villas though stand out from the crowd and Villa Destiny is one of them.

Destiny villa was featured in the popular Island Home Magazine in the USA. "High in the hills overlooking Jamaica's beautiful Montego Bay, Destiny, with 10,000 feet of indoor-outdoor living space, is one of the finest private residences in the Caribbean." Island Home, writes Rob Sandler.

Destiny villa Montego Bay, has got to be one of the most outstanding and spectacular luxury vacation rental homes in Jamaica and is situated in a green tropical hillside with views to the Great River valleys, breath taking ocean and mountain views.

Yes. This property really is special and you can see for yourself is you follow this link to the villas own website. http://www.destinyvillajamaica.com/

Getting back to Jamaica and all those beautiful luxury villas, I am reminded of one property in particular that I feel the need to push in your direction.

Jamaica Villas - Jamaican Spices



Guess what this stuff is?

It was with some great joy that I read the Jamaica Observer online to find out that everyones favourite spicey island (unless you MUST be different!) is going to get a bit more spice.

Yup! One of the essential ingredients in your favourite "Ruby Murray" (That's curry to you John!) is that "mellow yellow" stuff called Turmeric.

Turmeric is often used by dodgey restaurant owners who add it instead of Saffron when you roll into their restaurant after a few "Zombies" too many and order Pilau rice. Let's face it, I could never tell the difference until the next day when my shirt front was bright yellow and brown.

I digress. The Jamaican farmers are test planting Turmeric with the hindrance, sorry, help (not as if matey from the ministry is going to muck in and dig the soil up, is it?) of the Ministry of Agriculture's export division. You may not believe this but Turmeric actually grows wild in Jamaica, mainly in the western parishes but it's the first time anyone has had the idea to harvest the stuff to flog on the world markets.

Laugh if you like (I did) but Sylburn Thomas, a general manager of the division, reckons that Turmeric will be an alternative to those displaced by sugar. I bet it tastes lousy in coffee though?

So, if you notice Jamaica is turning a rather bright golden yellow colour and your Blue Mountain coffee tastes a bit "iffy" just check your not putting Turmeric in, instead of sugar. Heres the report in full, read it yourself Link

St Martin villas - Beachfront villas

Villa Topaz 6, 15 seconds from the waters edge

I don´t know anyone who doesn't like to feel the sun on there face, stare at the sea, Jack Daniels in hand (or whatever is your own preferred poison) and wonder "I wonder if it's raining today in Grimsby?"

I know that I love to do just that, only with me, I wonder about Rhyl (It's in North Wales.) and as any of my regular Blogblimpers would tell you, I and mrs Blogspot have just had a week in a caravan on a "holiday park" in that jewel of the Welsh wastelands. How the long, cold, wet nights just flashed by.

Anyway people, I would like to brighten your lives up with this very nice posting about some beautiful villas on the Caribbean paradise that is the tropical island of St. Martin. It's nice, take my word for that.

The holiday rental properties in question are 15 seconds from the waters edge and that's close (Unless you are Usain Bolt then that's 150 yards.) Topaz 6 is part of Shore Pointe - A Beautiful and Elegant gated community seating on Cupecoy Beach, St Martin. You are also only 3 minutes drive from the best restaurant in town.

Topaz 6 has so much going for it that I will leave you to browse through the webpage and see for yourself what a great holiday location this really would make. The property has everything you need or want. Follow this link for full description and great photographs.

Villas in St Martin - Golf course apartments St Martin

A Place in the sun? Yes please

"You gorra diversify son!" That was the advice my late father gave to me. "Don't put all your eggs in the one basket" he would say. "Likewise with money, put half of you money in a biscuit tin under the floorboards and put the other half on the first Greyhound to do a poo before the race.

I never took the "biscuit-tin-under-the-floorboards" advice, that was bloody silly. That Greyhound let me down very badly though!!

I am going to diversify on this blog though, because, I think that my Blogpeepers would get bored with looking at properties on Jamaica after a while, no matter how fantastic they are. So, here we go with some wonderful properties on the beautiful Caribbean Island of St Martin instead.

The Cliff H6 Views on three sides

Apartment H6 "The Cliff" at Cupecoy, St. Martin has great views over the Caribbean Sea, Mullet Bay golf course and beach (I would like to point out that the "Mullet" in Mullet Bay refers to the fish, not that eighties silly hairdo sported by Teds like Kajagoogoo! You don´t need to have a Mullet hairdo to play golf, no matter who says what!) 



This luxury holiday apartment in St Martin is exceptional and one of the finest apartments you can rent. It has so much going for it that I am going to throw you a link and you can read the descriptions and view more great photographs of this property. Link to apartment page.

There is also a bonus here. Guess which fantastic villa rentals company for St. Martin is promoting this wonderful property? Need you ask?

Jamaica Villas - Jamaica Villas Video Chanel on Youtube

Youtube video for Sugar Bay Villa

"Is that what you do all day long? write blogs!" This is the question most asked of yours truly, mostly by Mrs Blogspot when she's having to hump furniture about, paint the house or do an oil change on the truck.

There is a simple answer; NO! I also make videos for the blogs.

I have a video chanel on Youtube for Jamaican Treasures villas and my aim is to put lots of lovely photos set to Reggae music, for your entertainment and information, after all, that's why you are reading this little bit of Blog, isn´t it?

Jamaica Villas - Sugar Bay Villa, Discovery Bay, Jamaica

Sugar Bay Villa - Discovery Bay

As I mentioned in the last posting, no sooner do I make a new post to this Jamaican Treasures Blog than I realise I will have to start explaining to the Blogspot Police, that's you dear readers, what this or that means. So, here we go again.

Sugar Bay Villa. Sugar Bay villa is in Discovery Bay, Jamaica, but it is called Sugar Bay because..wait for it..that's where they used to grow the sugar cane that was used to make sugar! It's not rocket science working that one out, is it? Well, maybe it is for some of you. (I can´t wait for the explanation for "Villa number 1")

Sugar Bay Villa really is sweet (Dear god! D.H. Lawrence, eat your heart out.) If your looking for style and elegance along with tropical beauty then this is the perfect villa for you. This deluxe vacation villa has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, beachfront location with it's own private white sandy beach, a small boat available for you to mess about on the water with, a full staff of cook, house keeper, laundress, butler and gardener.

Sugar Bay Villa also has it's own swimming pool, seaside gazebo, tennis court, sea Kayaks and much more. Do yourself a favour and take a look at what you get when you decide to book Sugar Bay villa for a tropical vacation.

Also, I would like to point out, Sugar bay Villa would make the absolute best, most fantastic wedding reception and honeymoon location in Jamaica and Jamaican Treasures have wedding packages and fully trained staff to make the day go with a swing. Think about it, heres the Link to Sugar Bay Villa.
