Arrival: Jan 09
A large resort with a nice pond, wildlife. A bit of a drive from town but very quiet for the most part.
Taxis or buses are available just check the prices before you get in We found the bus (van) will charge anywhere from 2.50 EC to 10EC pp depending on the driver into Grand Anse more to St Georges
Rooms:
Rooms were large and well maintained, Bright they had a nice size safe in the room to store your valuables. A small fridge, lot of storage for clothes, TV & A/C If you have mobility issues take a beach front room the sea view rooms have many stairs to reach them & no elevators
Restaurants and Bars:
We took the All inclusive package which was good because prices for eating out in Grenada is very expensive. They had a good variety of dishes They have a strange set up for dinner you must make a reservation for 1st or 2nd seating ...be sure to do this for the whole week when you arrive They had a nice buffet area screened in also a buffet at the pool area for lunch & occasional dinner They have a couple of bars and serve afternoon tea in the lounge with little sandwiches, cookies & scones
Beach/Pools/Grounds:
the grounds we well kept the beach is not wide but long & open to all so you get the beach vendors every day, the pool area is separate so if you want to avoid the vendors just head up there
Activities on and off the Resort/Hotel:
Every evening they had some local music group (except Sunday)they were very good.
Tennis court on the property, water sports.
we took a tour of the island which was very good
If you like fish go to "Fish Friday" at the top of the island it is a mix of locals & tourists
Other Comments:
We took the bus into Grand Anse a few times there is a supermarket there, banks, coffee shops and a short walk to the beach.
St Georges is a busy place lots of shops & restaurants but can run you a pretty penny for some meals
Overall it is very nice place to visit.
You can drink the tap water without problems |
