We have stayed at this villa in the past so had certain expectations, so imagine our surprise when we realised quite quickly it had gotten even better. Within seconds of walking through the door our two eldest girls (9 and 3) had their swimsuits on and jumped into the warm crystal clear pool whilst myself, my wife and youngest daughter (6 months) explored the house. After nearly a 3 year absence from staying here we noticed that every room still looked fresh and clean, plus the back bedrooms en suite shower had a total renovation, we also had a suspicion that the sea facing bathroom had a new bath, basin and toilet installed but couldn't be 100% sure. Maybe the owners can clarify that? However the three little tweaks to the villa that made the biggest difference to our month there was the instillation of air con units in each bedroom and front room. If you have ever visited Grenada or another Caribbean island in the past you will know just how annoying those little critters can be, but with the air con running in the late evening and early morning we hardly noticed them and only picked up a couple of bites. The other really pleasing thing about our stay was seeing the staff (cleaner Janet/gardener Franklyn) who by all accounts have worked at the villa for years. Janet is such a sweet lady and very experienced with children and on one occasion was able to baby sit for us ($50 EC) whilst myself and the wife experienced an adult night out eating, drinking and listening to the latest soca music. Franklyn (a vegan who lives a humble lifestyle) who I had befriended on a previous trip was again such a pleasure to see again. After a brief chat with him about herbs and spices he returned a couple of days later armed with his own organically grown vegetables, fruit and various herbs (local coriander, local basil, thyme, chives, local lemon grass and french thyme, mangoes and avocados). Despite him saying that he didn't want much for his produce I gladly handed over $50 EC dollars because I knew that to buy this amount of organic food in a store in the UK or Grenada would cost me at least twice as much. I still maintain that it was the best $50 I spent on the island. With so much information in the villa about places to visit etc, during our stay we took every opportunity to see the sights and have totally fallen in love with the island again, we literally can't wait to come back. Grenada Villa keep up the good work.
