Grenada, Caribbean

Virgin rating

The hotel

Amid a flowering garden of palm trees, hibiscus, frangipani and bougainvillea, is the Coyaba Beach Resort. Perched on the world famous Grand Anse Beach, the hotel's unique design is themed on Arawak-Indian life from a bygone era. Take a stroll along the glistening white sand to the spice market, or the Esther's Beach Bar that is well-recommended by the locals for a range of refreshing cocktails and a friendly atmosphere. Covering 5.5-acres, the hotel offers beautiful natural surroundings, as well as Grenadian specialities and international cuisine from two restaurants, or you can enjoy a refreshing cocktail at the pool swim-up bar! When you’re feeling more energetic, complimentary tennis, Hobie Cats and kayaking will keep you and the family occupied.

Great location on a wonderful beach. The room was fine and the gardens are nicely maintained. Food was ok, nothing luxurious but plentiful and tasted good. All-inclusive package did us well. Very helpful staff: check-in , check-out were easy and efficient. A couple of music nights, one with an excellent steel band , were most enjoyable. We did a couple of really good yoga sessions with very good teachers. I used the gym several times- this would be my only criticism - the equipment was not the best… Overall, we had a great time.

Stayed here in November 2024. After a heavily delayed flight, we finally arrived. No welcome drink or a towel. Nothing. Good start. We could hear this really loud noise. Turns out there is some sort of football ground/outdoor public venue space. And when we arrived they had bingo on. Blaring out of the speakers for hours. The noise happened a lot during out stay with football matches. Not great when you're trying to sleep. It's a bit strange as there is absolutely no atmosphere at the resort. So all you can hear is music/bingo from next door. Breakfast is OK. Does get a little boring by the end of the 2 weeks. But it is what it is. Sunbeds are the old white plastic ones. And the cushions they have and very soiled. Have some sort of black mold looking stuff over them. Beach is nice. But it's a public beach and has absolutely nothing to do with the resort. People keep saying on the reviews of the resort about the beach. It's not connected to the resort. You can drag your sunbeds into it. Dinner is pretty awful. Same pork/chicken/fish every day. Just with a different sauce. We asked a few times when ordering if we could have some stuff taken out of the dishes as we don't like some vegetables. They seemed to write it down. But the food came with the stuff we asked to be removed. How some people have said the food here is amazing is beyond me. It's just not. I appreciate it's a small place. So they can't do loads of different things. But at least they could make sure the things they do are actually nice. Some people who stay here just have a really low standard of what's nice compared to us. We smoke. There are no seats anywhere in the outside areas in this resort. Sunbeds and that's it. Nowhere to sit and have a chat and a cigarette after dinner. You can stand by the entrance to the restaurant and have one. But that's it. If we'd known this before we came, we definitely would not have booked. If you smoke don't come here. Night time entertainment is pretty bad. Singers just making songs you know sound depressing. Probably why everyone is in bed by 9. They've been bored to sleep. Animal cruelty is really bad here. Probably out of everywhere I've been on holiday, I have never seen people be so horrible to animals. Locals throwing rocks at dogs. Trying to hit them with sticks. Security guards throwing rocks from inside the resort onto the beach tyring to hit dogs. It's shocking to see. But all the staff enjoyed it as they were all laughing and smiling. I appreciate when we go to these third world counties they don't behave the way we do. But you'd just hope people would have something about them. We told someone at the front desk that their staff definitely shouldn't be doing this at all. Let alone in full view of guests. But they all seem to hate animals. So nothing was done. They catch cats in cages and leave them in the cages for hours and hours. In the blistering heat and rain. And even in the cages when they fog the resort for mosquitos. Really bad to witness. And just cruel. Beds were so uncomfortable. Metal frame and hard mattress. Water pressure was so bad. Anyone with long hair will struggle to wash their hair. We had no hot water for 2 days. They didn't tell us this. We had to come back to our room for a shower to discover it. Then wait around why they tried to find us somewhere we could have a wash. Although it did give us a glimpse of the other rooms. I always wonder if all the rooms are the same bad quality. And they are. All old dated, bad water pressure and same beds. How can some people say in their review this gives it an authentic feel! And the fact it's family owned. So what!? If its bad it's bad. I don't care less who owns it. If you're looking for somewhere that's on the beach, hates animals, has an outdoor sports venue blaring noise out all night, bad repetitive food, run down rooms, no water pressure, no seats outside for smoking then you should definitely come here. Although if this ticks your boxes, I'd definitely have a look in the mirror. It's without doubt the worse hokiday we've been on. Read less

This is the 3rd time that we have visited family in Grenada and the 1st time at this hotel. We had seen a variety of mixed reviews, however, I wonder where some people actually stayed as the reviews do not represent this hotel. If you are after 5* luxury please look elsewhere!! If however, you are looking for a locally owned authentic quiet and relaxed hotel then this is for you. We were not disappointed....we loved it. ❤️🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩❤️ We had a fantastic time here and could not fault anything, yes the rooms are a little tired and could do with updating, however it has everything you need and the bed was big and comfortable, air con, shower/bathroom all good. Staff were fantastic and always willing to help with anything. Food and drink were good - if you are looking for 5* restaurants then again look elsewhere. The food was tasty and we did not have a problem with finding something to eat, if you have any problems with food you only need to ask and they will do their best to accomodate you. Drinks and cocktails were again great 🍹🍺🥂....there are some restaurants and bars in walking distance if you want a change or you can grab a bus or taxi to visit other places. The grounds of the hotel are beautiful and so much effort is made maintaining them, the garden staff take such pride in their work. 🌴🌾💐🌺 All sat on one of the best beaches 👀🌅🏝️🏝️...what is not to like! Chill and Relax.....we will be back.🌹🌞🌞🌞🌹 Read less

This resort is not for people looking for night life. It is very quiet and intimate with it turning into a ghost town by 11 pm. Can't wait to go back. Read less

For the major part we really enjoyed our stay here, it is a bit dated but this adds to the feeling of being in the caribbean, it has soul. The rooms are a good size with balcony or terrace with furniture, we stayed in a ocean view with an absolutely HUGE bed which was very comfortable. Air con worked well and bathroom was adequate. Room was cleaned to a very good standard every day with towel changes, including beach towels. There is a fridge but no mini bar. Safe is free to use. The hotel is relatively small which is nice as it never seemed too busy even when full. Both restaurants were good, served the same food but the pool bar is more relaxed with clothing, shorts were allowed in the main restaurant as long as they are smart and with proper shoes/trainers. On the whole the food was a good standard with a good choice on the buffet or there is a set menu available in the main restaurant. The only thing i didn't like was the ribeye steak i paid extra for on our last evening. Nothing like the ribeye you get in the uk and was like shoe leather. Bars are good and serve a good selection of drinks, the new beach bar serves a great IPA if you like that sort of thing. Keron makes great mohjito's and gin & tonics. There is usually some sort of entertainment at night which was also good. The grounds of the hotel are spotless but it does come with a price of noisy strimmers going most days if you choose to sit in the grounds or close to the fence on the beach. All sunbeds, and there are plenty are pulled inside the grounds at night and you will be lucky to get one of the staff to drag them onto the beach for you, only had this 3 times in 2 weeks. All the staff are good, gardeners, security, waitng staff etc all smile and are polite. The beach is probably one of the best we have been to, it rivals anywhere in the world including the maldives and is one of the few caribbean islands that doesnt (at the moment) suffer with the influx of sargassum weed. We only done 2 trips, one a full day to rum factory, chocolate museum and nutmeg museum with a stop off at the concord falls, it was a long day and the roads are all like our country roads in the uk with the exception of a couple. The other trip was whale and dolphin watching which was absolutely fantastic, although we never managed to find dolphins we did see a lot of sperm whales, amazing creatures to see swimming along in the wild. The trip run by first impressions pick you up at the hotel and included sandwiches and drinks and was around a 4 hour trip. One thing to note if you are looking for a peaceful break, there is a community arena opposite the hotel which hosts a weekend event once a month i think which does include them playing really loud music which in itself wouldnt be too bad but it is all bass, you could feel it even sitting in the restaurant or your room, also goes on all day saturday and sunday and up till about 10pm Something you may want to find out dates of and book accordingly. There is a selection of shops opposite the hotel including a well stocked supermarket and even a KFC if you fancy. BBC beach is about a 20 minute walk, a small cove with a few bars but the beach is not as good as grand anse. We are booked to go again next year as there are still a few other places we want to visit and the location is beautiful. Read less
