Young Island sunset
 
While on YOUNG ISLAND, your accommodation will have an ocean view, refrigerator, hair dryer, wall safe, ceiling fan, open air garden shower, and private patio.  Your breakfasts, lunches (or picnics) and dinners will have six choices of breads (coconut, banana, cinnamon, wheat, white, raisin) baked in our kitchen, plus a choice of entrees served under our thatched roofs on the beach. When you arrive and depart on St. Vincent, a taxi will be arranged.  And…best of all, YOUNG ISLAND is casual so packing for this vacation is easy.  Slacks and a collared shirt for dinner is about as dressy as you'll need to be. 
 
Our complimentary amenities include beach hammocks, chaise lounges, and beach towels, windsurfers, kayaks, pedaloes, small sailboats, snorkels, masks and flippers, lagoon pool, and lighted tennis court with rackets and balls.  Our ferry is available any time, day or night, to carry guests between St. Vincent and Young Island.  A baby sitter can be arranged locally at $5 per hour with a 3 hour minimum. 
 
RESORT NEWS
Since our plunge pool cottages have become so popular, we recently added a beautiful plunge pool at cottage #28 on the high hillside. We now have five cottages with plunge pools and one with its own swimming pool.” 
 
Following the rebuilding and redecorating of our Bar Lounge earlier this year, we have continued the enhancement of our bar area by repaving our bar patio and making it larger, and also re-tiling the Main Bar, all of which has added to the attractiveness of the area. 
 
New Feature:  Spa Kalina sits amongst the tropical foliage on the hillside of Young Island with services including: massage, reflexology, Indian Head massage, facials, manicures, pedicures, paraffin wax treatments and waxing.  Treatments are available a la carte, please view the spa page for more information
