Introduction
|  |
If for some reason you are uncomfortable with your hosts you will have the option of changing houses. Another option is to combine a week in a hotel with a week staying with a family.
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.
|
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).
