A hotel to return to again and again. Peaceful with everthing to hand and no extras to pay - ever. Unless a la carte or foreign wines.
Alert , friendly, attentive staff, owner on hand, Beach, gardens , pool to get lost in and so safe.
Watersports to sample. Interesting tours. I wont forget the turtle experience. We were so lucky.
Wall to wall sunshine and calm sea. Drinks in the bar , even from the pool all day
Varied menu despite the price & several courses with local flavours and fresh caught fish.
Vegetarian meals available but check beforehand as there isnt much choice for main meal if not a fish eater.
You do have to walk to pool, room reception , bar but not more than 80 paces
This resort area has something very special which we've not experienced anwhere else in the world.
Thank you Just Grenada for our help and choice.

We spent a week at the family run Coyaba Beach hotel on Grand Anse beach Grenada in April 08. The hotel staff are great, the food is very good and the whole set up is delightful. Many guests were on repeat visits which says a lot. Not many of the rooms have a decent sea view but that is because of the lovely garden trees and shrubs which block the view. The graden is beautifully kept and a nice plce to relax if you do not like sitting on the beach. Swimming is good and for scuba divers a short walk along the beach will get you to Native Spirit Divers which is probably the best run most professional operation on the island: a joint Grenadan/Swiss operation.
Ther are more expensive hotels on Grenada but there cannot be many which give the visitor such a great stay.

To start with this Hotel is perfectly located on one of the best beaches probably in the Caribbean. Its gardens and its beach/village location is very good.
Our arrival was excellent and we were greeted with rum punches, cold towels and a warm reception.

We asked to be located in a ground floor room and were given a room as close to the beach as you could get. The rooms are very comfortable and have benefited from a major refurbishment after Hurricane Ivan within the last 3 years. The maintenance on the property is good.

The beach is great and ideal for early morning or sunset walks.

the main problem is with the food; there appears to be nobody managing teh staff during breakfast, lunch or dinner. We often asked for the same item 3 times before it arrived. Plus the food was either inedible or cold.

We did complain, not something we do often, but it was also a special occasion holiday and we felt dissappointed.
Our feedback unfortunately did not lead to any improvements certainly not within the 2 weeks we were there.
We also overheard others complain about similar issues.

My advice is to go on room only basis as the Hotel is in a good location. Plus nearby is a village green where local cricket teams every afternoon. Great fun.

Bottom line though is we would not go back - a shame really as we stayed there last year but we gather the chef has changed. Plus we did not find the staff the friendliest we have met in other Caribbean islands.

Still found St Lucia best island - but I guess places do change!

Having read other reviews we were a bit concerned about the Hotel. Having experienced two weeks of the exceptional quality service and food at Coyaba Grenada, we found scarcely anything amiss. The food was varied and they used local ingredients. The fruit was the best. Staff very helpful and friendly. Management, very much hands on which shows in the standard which is achieved.
Would recommend for more mature traveller, not really suitable for children as only one pool and the frolics of children does not mix with stressed out adults!
The pool could do with some more shade stands, even though there was some cloud you did need to be under a shade. Having said that, down at the beach there was plenty of shelter.
Hawkers on beach no problem, if you politely chatted to them and said no, then off they went. After the first couple of days they would just come by for a chat.
Scuba Diving scene is good, competent people and good boats.
Snorkelling only available on boat trips and you need to check sea state, but on good days it is great.
