Elegance Steeped in History at The British Colonial Hilton in Nassau, Bahamas
|
Posted by: Publisher on Wednesday, November 14, 2007 - 05:38 PM |
|
 The British Colonial Hilton, just minutes from the city's port and within 20 minutes of the airport is a true Bahamian experience dating back to 1695, on the former site of Old Fort Nassau. Although Proprietary Governor, Sir Nicolas Trott, built the Fort for the purpose of safeguarding the island against pirates, even the famous pirate, Blackbeard and his cohort's enjoyed a stay at the hotel. Today, after a 68 million dollar renovation, the British Colony Hilton offers an elegant taste of the island’s rich history, along with some of the most modern amenities for business and vacation travelers.
A sweeping staircase welcomes guests in the bright, marble-tiled lobby studded with palm trees under a skylight ceiling; situated in the heart of the financial and shopping district.

Grenada, West Indies, Great Hotels in Paradise
|
Posted by: Publisher on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 08:25 PM |

by Karen Hamlin
 Paddle 100 miles north of Venezuela. Veer slightly to the right splashing between the azure Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Run smack into the exotic West Indies' southernmost tip of the Windward Islands and get off at Grenada. If you pass Kickem' Jenny (an active underwater volcano), you've gone too far. The tri-island nation includes Grenada, Carriacou (Carry-a-koo), and Petit Martinique.
For the past 20 plus years, Grenada has been developing as an independent nation within the British Commonwealth in a quiet cocoon, remaining virtually untouched by the spotlights of the tourism industry. Initially, the island was inhabited by peace loving Arawak Indians who were eventually replaced by the more war-like Caribs. Then came the French, who bought the island from the Caribs in 1650, for a bottle of booze. But in 1651, a group of Caribs jumped over the cliffs to their deaths at what is now known as Leaper's Hill rather than submit to colonization.
