Things to Do
The Garden
With a 100 different type of flora beautifully arranged throughout the East Winds Garden, we consider this our crowning jewel. This cornucopia of vibrant plants, trees and birdlife is sure to amaze you. It has been a project of the resort’s for decades and guests will find themselves immersed in it continually as all of our rooms conveniently positioned amongst the gardens. We look forward to having you join us for one of our weekly Garden Tours lead by our Head Gardener, Sylvanus, so that he can share the stories and medicinal qualities of this little piece of Eden.
The East Winds garden contains a number of local fruits and vegetables to keep you healthy without comprimising on taste. Our plants and herbs also can help many ailments by boiling them in hot water until they’re the right strength of tea for your taste. We really do make your wellbeing our topmost priority, both internally and externally.
The Beach
The beach at East Winds is our hidden gem, and we like it that way. Set in a natural, private bay, it is both unmanicured but beautifully maintained as to bring out the best of both worlds. A perk of being in the Caribbean is that the sea stays warm all year round so it’s always a good time to take a dip in the waters!
Of course, with all the heat, there needs to be shade. We’ve put gazebos and sunbeds all along the beach so you can enjoy the many different and beautiful views of the water. Drinks service is always available so there is no need to move away from your book or rest.
The Pool
Central to the beach, restaurant, bars and garden, our pool is the perfect spot for a midday rest! The self-service swim up bar makes it easy to stay refreshed and is a place for people to gather, go for a swim and enjoy the serenity of being surrounded by our lush garden. We keep the pool at a very comfortable 28C all year round and comfortable stools to sit on and have a drink without ever leaving the water.
And if you prefer to have someone help in keeping you refreshed, our drinks service goes on throughout the day to ensure you have everything you need.
We have sun loungers all around the pool, carefully tucked in the shade of the overhanging trees from the garden. Many guests consider this their after-lunch siesta destination before heading down to the beach to catch the afternoon sun. Our staff are also regularly passing through to make sure that you’re as comfortable as can be.

The Philosophy behind the East Winds Garden Spa is to stay at one with nature and with it being nestled amidst the trees and flowers, it’s hard not to be. Our focus on the environment is a big part of the reason we prefer using natural, organic treatments with ingredients from the environment around us. We want to help you rejuvenate and energise – both inside, and out.
Yoga and Pilates – Complimentary classes take place 4 times a week
