Barbados (British). St. Maarten (Dutch). Grenada (British).

Actually St. Maarten has two halves, one part Dutch, the other French (Northern part, officially the Collectivity of Saint Martin). I'd say the Dutch side looks better, but the French side isn't that bad either.

And Grenada was originally a French colony ceded in the Treaty of Paris.

As far as I can see, yes it does matter who is a part of the colony, but British management was better than Spanish or French management.
