I am considering a stay on Carriacou with my wife. Can anyone comment on the island in general insofar as the atmosphere, restaurants, beaches etc. We were thinking of an 8 to 10 day stay..The lack of development is the attraction for us. We are interested in the Las Tortugas villa. Thanks

I liked Carriacou, I kept my boat in the yard for one season and anchored/stayed there for weeks. While my boat was on the handstand in the yard, I rented a nice small place called "treetops" (as it was on one of the highest places on the island). The island hasn't fully recovered from the devastation left behind by Hurricane Beryl last year. Your place is close to Paradise beach, and with a rental car, you can go explore the whole island. The people are friendly, and it is a safe place (everybody knows everybody). If you do go, try to visit Anse la Roche. I'm not sure how close you can get by car, but you can get there by dinghy. You have a view of Sandy Island from your villa, but going there is worth it as well. There used to be a shuttle across from the Paradise Beach Club; I hope that they've rebuilt and are offering that again.

Thanks for your reply. Do you have any advice on restaurants?
