Caribbean-style holiday destinations with good service

We love going on holiday to the Caribbean. Usually to smaller and less popular/well known places like BVI, Tobago, Grenada, sometimes St Lucia. We love small beaches and mountains behind. We like less 'package hol' sort of vibe as we did that for years when the kids were younger.

What we do miss versus going to Thailand say, is a high level of service in hotels. I'm sure you can get that, but we don't like spending mega money. So basically, our question is, where else in the world is like the Caribbean for holidays?

We've done Hawaii, Maldives, Polynesia, and Vietnam. The closest we felt was Polynesia

What do you mean by service? Fawning? Huge menus? Loads of staff doing everything for you? None of that really appeals! American hotels give good service because you tip like mad! So try California. Or just check out hotel reviews? I’ve rarely found hotels not giving decent service! Do you just want beach areas? Japanese hospitality is first class.
