We had a superb time with the John's, it
simply couldn't have been better. They taught us so much about their
plants and were so helpful with my numerous
questions about Grenadian life. Thank you so much for arranging our
stay. We're having fun showing our photos and sharing stories of our
time immersed in the friendly culture of Grenada with our family and
friends. Roberta and Ben Prince, California, January 2009

For those wanting more privacy, we have self-catering apartments, whole houses, all of which are suitable for groups/families. Even if you stay in these accommodations, cooked meals may be available on request.
If you would like to combine your stay with instruction in yoga, meditation and/or receive massage, reflexology and Reiki treatments from a fully qualified and experienced instructor and therapist, please let us know. If you are a vegetarian, then we may be able to arrange for you to have vegetarian meals.
Taxis can be arranged for transport directly to the homes at an extra cost. If you prefer, you can arrange to be dropped to the bus terminal and arrangements made for you to be met by your host off the bus at your destination. This will cost you less if you are going to the outer parishes. The adventure starts here!
Each host offers a slightly different package. More details about the individual houses, hosts and prices may be obtained by e-mailing us. We request a 20% deposit of your total vacation price in advance to confirm your place in a home at least two weeks' before the start of your stay. The other 80% should be paid on arrival in Grenada. The deposit is non-refundable if you cancel less than two weeks before your arrival date.
You can pay using VISA or MasterCard, or use a bank draft, travellers' cheques, or cash (US/Canadian dollars, Sterling, Euros, or Eastern Caribbean/Barbadian dollars).
