Grenada's Spice Island Beach Resort Awarded Coveted Green Globe Recertification

Recognizing the resort's commitment to operating at the world's highest environmental standards, the luxurious 64-suite Spice Island Beach Resort in Grenada has received the prestigious Green Globe Re-Certification Award.

Spice Island Beach Resort was the first property on Grenada to become Green Globe Certified in 2004. In 2005, following a brief property closure as a result of Hurricane Ivan, the resort embarked on a massive $12 million rebuilding and renovation project and implemented a variety of green initiatives.

Green Globe Certification is the worldwide sustainability system based on internationally accepted criteria for sustainable operation and management of travel and tourism businesses. Green Globe provides a certification system that responds directly to the major environmental problems facing the planet including the greenhouse effect, over-use of freshwater resources, destruction of biodiversity, production of solid and biological waste, and corporate social issues.

The award-winning Spice Island Beach Resort features 64 elegantly-appointed suites, the full-service Janissa's Spa, a Cybex® fitness center, Oliver's beachside gourmet restaurant, the Sea & Surf Terrace for light lunches, the Sea & Surf Bar for refreshing cocktails throughout the day, a central swimming pool with swim-up whirlpool, an Omnicourt® tennis court, the Nutmeg Pod children's activity center, the Gatsby Boutique and more.

Spice Island Beach Resort is a proud member of the esteemed Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) collection and the first and only resort in Grenada to be featured in the exclusive Virtuoso network's Hotels & Resorts Program. The resort is also currently celebrating its newly acquired status as the first Grenada property in the Signature Hotels & Resorts Collection.
