Bleached beaches and pool-side sloth are a given on any winter escape. So what exactly is it that swings the final destination decision?

From Anguilla down to Grenada we have scratched beneath the sandy, sun-drenched surface to find ten of the finest food hotels these idyllic islands have to offer.
And there are menus for every occasion: Sumptuous seafood tasting menus and delicately prepared Modern West Indian cuisine set the night scene while during the day it's pick your own organic lunch or get hands on with a cookery class. Surroundings are as diverse as the menus - from colonial to sumptuous, hip to minimalist. Or best of all - blissful, barefoot dining .
