This was our first time to Grenada. We loved it -- the island, the people, the beautiful scenery, and especially Blue Horizons. We rented a one-bedroom, garden view cottage and it was absolutely perfect for us. The gardens, as many others have said, are stunning. I enjoyed the birdwatching tour on Sunday, as well as the garden tour. So many different species of plants and trees on the resort alone.
It was great to have a kitchenette to cook a few meals in and have snacks, tea time, etc. The room was kept immaculate by our lovely housekeeper Rhea, and we enjoyed hours of sitting on the terrace watching the birds, relaxing, reading.
The location is superb. Five minute walk to the beach (beautiful Grande Anse Beach with comfortable loungers at the Spice Island Beach Club). The use of those facilities for the beach is a great perk for staying at Blue Horizons. We never had a problem finding a lounger or a shady place to sit. (The spa services at Spice Island are also available to Blue Horizon guests.) In addition, the resort is only a 10 minute walk to Spiceland Mall with a good IGA market for supplies (their bakery's chocolate chip muffins and cranberry walnut are very good) and there is an excellent wine shop in the mall, as well as a wonderful ice cream store and an interesting book store and art gallery, among other shops.
The staff at Blue Horizons are all friendly and helpful and the Hopkin family treated us first time visitors as if we were old friends. What a lovely place to spend a week. I wish we could have stayed a month!
