Grenadine Escape viewpoint

'Our love affair with the Calabash Hotel has lasted for many years and is in part due to the seductiveness of Grenada; the prettiest of all Caribbean islands, with its warm people, fabulous beaches and lush countryside. However, much of the appeal of this hotel is due to the fact that it is extremely well run by its English owner Leo Garbutt and General Manager Clive Barnes, with the focus on personal attention. Whilst the Calabash is certainly a top class property, and arguably Grenada's best, the emphasis is on understated elegance and Caribbean informality, which is quite addictive. The food is outstanding and the setting of the restaurant at night truly magical.'
