The Caldwell's story of sailing the Caribbean, leasing Prune Island for 198 years from St. Vincent and years of back-breaking work is part of the charm of this casual, fun loving resort. The renovations that started in 1999 by Rob Barrett and his team build upon that charm. The Caldwell's lifetime dream was built on 135 acres of hills, a lake often filled with mosquitos, and white sandy coves rimmed with the clear turquoise Caribbean Sea. Before his death in 1998, John planted thousands of coconut palms on Palm Island and neighboring islands up and down the Caribbean over his last 25 years. Trails meander through the palm groves.
Meals are casual, delicious, and a great opportunity to sample West Indian cuisine.
Fresh fish and lobster is a specialty along with international favorites. Every afternoon at 4 PM, tea is served on your patio or at the gazebo. A weekly BBQ, a local steel band, and a night out on Union Island will provide evening entertainment. Water sports are king on Palm Island. Sailing charters, day-sails, picnics, and jaunts to neighboring islands are easy to arrange with the resort staff.
