Grenada, is well renowned as the Spice Isle of the Caribbean and sprinkled with a variety of boutique hotels and villas that provide an authentic, bespoke experience for visitors. To increase awareness of these properties, the Ministry of Tourism and Grenada Tourism Authority (GTA) has launched Simple Stays Grenada, a collection of 16 properties located in Grenada, Carriacou, and Petite Martinique, offering affordable accommodations so travelers on any budget can experience an intimate and quality Caribbean escape.

“Grenada’s wide variety of boutique hotel and villa options is a distinguishing factor in the destination’s visitor appeal,” said Petra Roach, CEO, Grenada Tourism Authority. “The goal of this project is to showcase these properties and their special appeal to better support them in the overall pandemic recovery.”

The collection includes one (1) guest house in Petite Martinique, six (6) hotels in Carriacou and nine (9) hotels in Grenada. Each with unique and special features such as, panoramic views, swimming pools and self contained apartments. They are in close proximity to beaches, restaurants and nightlife and assure guests a warm and friendly experience and a peaceful environment.

To incentivize visitors to get out and explore the destination, anyone that books accommodations at any of the Simple Stays properties will receive discounts to a host of activities, such as kayaking, dive excursions, river tubing, scenic hikes and chocolate factory tours.
