While relaxing on the beach all day is an official island pastime, there are also plenty of activities to keep the whole family engaged.

Golfers may wish to bring their own clubs to try their hand at the resort’s famed course. Named “Best Golf Course” by Robb Report, the golf club offers unparalleled views of the bay. Stretching 60 acres along the sea front, half this Jim Fazio-designed, par 72, 18-hole course is built on the flat coastal plain, while the other half is carved out of the hillside above the bay and resort, challenging all levels of play. Instruction, carts and rental clubs are available.

Complimentary to all Time & Place guests, the Sugar Palm Kids Club provides everything the kids could wish for. While two floors of play areas equipped with all sorts of toys, games, interactive television, craft tables, reading corners and Playstations will delight and entertain, the reading room, nature programs and beach excursions will tire them out perfectly!

In the meantime, you emerge invigorated and rejuvenated from the spa. Offering a variety of therapies in the most exotic of locations – picture private palapas hugging the hillside – accessible by a funicular – to glass-bottom suites built over the Caribbean waters, providing an audio-visual experience of the rhythmic waves.

After a day or two, you’ll understand why people call this their dream home away from home. And why as soon as you get back to your real home, you will call us to reserve your Time & Place luxury home in Canouan for the next year.
