Calabash Hotel

One of the most beautiful and friendliest hotels we’ve ever been to. Everything was perfect and the staff went beyond to make our stay a fantastic one. The restaurants were undeniably some of the best on the island, and the suites were so nice, we had a balcony overlooking the grounds which were immaculately kept. I celebrated my birthday there and we had a beautiful table set on the jetty. Thank you so much.

I'm not sure where to start, as my trip has been the most amazing restful experience. Originally I was due to visit in 2023 & the hotel team understood my predicament, facilitating my visit in 2024. That did not quite work out either, due to ongoing commitments, yet I finally arrived this month. Every member of the team made me feel most welcome, and for that I say 'thank you' to all of you. My room, room 8 was spacious, comfortable and 'just perfect'. Visiting a fortnight before Christmas / Chanukah meant the hotel was not busy. I felt undisturbed on the beach, and managed to read 4 books in 5 days which is so unlike me. Kareem, Betty Ann, Abigail, Dennis, Michael, George, Elle, Danique, Racquel .. I look forward to my return. Thank you ALL, for caring for me .. it's appreciated.

Going to the Calabash is like coming home. It is absolutely the most remarkable place. You are treated as if you were the most consequential guest. Your preferences are remembered on repeat visits. The rooms are wonderful, the food is great, the staff is fantastic, the beach is lovely. The accolades are never ending and well deserved. Grenada is a beautiful island and the Calabash family works hard to make your visit especially lovely. The spa was also enjoyed by our group. Leaving the hotel, various members of our group took a cooking class at Home Hospitality which was great fun; some went on a rainforest hike and visited Crater Lake and the monkeys, and of course there had to be a snorkeling visit to Flamingo Bay and the underwater sculpture garden (which is better seen by diving), and a tour of the chocolate museum. All of this was arranged by the Calabash staff. We can't wait to return!!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Calabash Hotel in Grenada! The hotel is beautiful, peaceful, and set in such lovely surroundings. Our room was tastefully decorated with an elegant, luxurious feel — comfortable and well-appointed with every detail carefully thought out. We had the added bonus of a private plunge pool, which made our stay even more special. It would be perfect for a romantic getaway! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the warmest, kindest people — every single person we encountered made us feel at home. The food was a highlight of our stay, especially our dinner at the Japanese restaurant, Nori, where the dishes were absolutely delicious. We also had breakfast delivered to our veranda, and it was a perfect way to start the day — everything I ate was fresh, flavorful, and delightful. The Calabash truly offers an exceptional experience, and we can’t wait to return!

We chose the Calabash Hotel for our 20th Anniversary, and we are so glad we did! From the moment we arrived, we had exceptional service, being met enthusiastically by staff and a member of the Garbutt family. From there we were led to our amazing suite where they had decorated the whole thing for our anniversary! Beautiful decorations, a bottle of wine AND champagne, and delicious rum punch. Every detail top to bottom has been thought of at this hotel. From the little things like adapters and a ladder on the balcony to dry wet clothes to the larger things like personalized service at every turn, and the friendliest of staff, that are more like family. We have been to many resorts in the Caribbean, and this has taken the gold. The food is UNREAL. Breakfast on our patio (lobster Benedict!), lunch at the Beach Club (pizzas from gorgeous pizza oven!) and dinner at either Nori (get the Kiss of Fire roll) or Rhodes (where do I begin…everything was amazing). They also have nights at the beach club with live music. The food is really next level- the executive chef Nick has really nailed the balance between being local, inventive and having exceptional taste and quality. The house wines are lovely and delicious and the array of cocktails cannot be beat. The resort itself is quiet and peaceful. It’s not a place to go if you are looking for a night life. It’s where you go to recharge and reconnect. We were treated so graciously by everyone who worked at the Calabash. Concierge Stevens, ready and available to listen any time, George and Dennis at the bar giving impeccable service, always with a fist bump and a smile. Head maître d’ Michael and the restaurant staff were wonderful including Miguel, Sherlyn, Abigail, Morissa, Kendrick, Rhonda - honestly the entire crew were spectacular. The housekeeping staff were next level. Rooms were beautifully made a few times a day, and the mini bar always stocked by Gabriel with a big smile. We never had to ask for a thing! The grounds were so beautifully kept. The beach is beautifully set in a harbor. Lots to do from paddle boarding, kayaks, snorkeling at the West Indies Scuba hut right on the beach who run great tours and have a resident cat Mai Tai to make you happy. Jay led us on our snorkeling excursion to Glover Bay- only a 5 minute boat ride away, but it gave us a chance to see the island and its beauty by boat. Vaughn and Calvin at the beach never let us make our own chair beds, or go without a cold water or frosty beverage. For our island tour Ryan Bartholomew led us to the rainforest reserve where we interacted with the Mona monkeys on the island. A beautiful spot for hiking and seeing the island from above. Beautiful lake in the center formed in the crater of a volcano that erupted ages ago. We also went into the town of St George and hit the House of Chocolate, worth a visit. Lastly a spa visit is a definite to do while at the Calabash. Danielle and Hannah led us to spa bliss and the facil

The perfect experience! We were there recently for our 20th anniversary and had an amazing time. The team there was so welcoming. It felt like we were part of their family. Beautiful property, great food. Highly recommend booking an island tour with Ryan Bartholomew, great guy and we loved learning the history of Grenada from him. And, book a snorkel trip with Savvy's through Calabash too. Such a fun day! Can't wait for our return visit!
