The choice is yours; whether you prefer a view of the sea from one of the Caribbean's biggest swimming pools, or a swim in the crystal blue waters of the bay, or perhaps to gaze out lazily from your relaxing Asian day bed in the shade cast by a straw canopy. At Raffles Resort Canouan Island, you can do what you like.
Golf Course
The Trump International Golf Club, which has been named 'Best Golf Course' by the Robb Report, is where golfers will believe that they have found heaven on earth. It is home to the resort's challenging 18-hole, par 72 golf course, designed by Jim Fazio. Offering unparalleled views of the bay, the course stretches 60 acres along the sea front, half of which is built on the flat coastal plain and the other half of which is carved out of the hillside above the bay and the resort. Golf instruction, carts and rental clubs are available.
