Laluna Boutique Hotel & Villas

My stay at Laluna was nothing short of magical. I had the most incredible birthday. Everything about the experience was beautiful, relaxing, and memorable. The food was fantastic! From the juicy lobster dinner and creamy tuna tartare to the delicious Caesar salad and steak sandwich at lunch. The cocktails were also amazing, especially the espresso martini. Evenings at the bar were a highlight and we met some great people. Tracy made the experience even more special with her exceptional service. Our cottage was lovely, with a bathroom that opened onto a stunning beach view. Falling asleep to the sound of waves and birds was pure magic. A truly special stay! I can’t wait to return. Read less

Wow! What an absolutely incredible experience! On arrival we met the most friendly faces, had a banana baileys colada(it was amazing) and then had lunch (yummy pumpkin soup & grilled tuna) before checking in to our cottage. The view was breathtaking! The beach is secluded so we held hands and took a walk with the waves gently crashing at out feet. The longest nap on the beach loungers and then a romantic dinner(Tagliata-steak), and some cocktails to end the night. Waking up to the sound of ocean waves and birds singing felt like a dream. Room was super clean, bed comfy and shower was so relaxing. Worth the price! Will most definitely be back. We miss LaLuna already! Read less

This was a wonderful getaway for us. We spent three glorious days in the Sun and the breeze. The weather could not be better. The surroundings were peaceful and perfect. The massage and yoga in the morning’s were an extra treat! The rooms were spacious with outdoor shower, which were thoroughly enjoyable. The unexpected treat of no children below the age of 12 was fantastic. Lastly, the staff; friendly, open and amenable, we could not recommend LaLuna more! Read less

Connoisseurs of Scotch whiskey know a 25-year single-malt Scotch tastes much better than a Scotch that’s only aged 7-10 years. Like a well-aged Scotch, Laluna is one of those resorts that has aged very well over its 25-year history. Like a good Scotch, it has those elements that are difficult to describe … but you know they make the difference between the aged and the new. Perhaps it’s the way nature has blended into the hillside, giving its 16 unique cottages and 3 luxury lodges an aura that other resorts surrounded by commercial and residential developments don’t have. Perhaps it’s laying on a beach lounge, soaking up the warm sun, or sipping a drink at the open-air lounge. Or perhaps it’s enjoying a quiet dinner with your loved one looking at the setting sun without the sound of traffic drowning out the soothing sound of the waves crashing on the sandy beach. Whatever it is, Laluna, like a 25-year single-malt Scotch, has aged very well. The grounds, the rooms, the pool, the beach … all were well maintained. The staff was extremely friendly. The food was good. The place was very enjoyable, a great place to relax, chill out, and do lots of nothing. Living in Canada where -25°C temps are guaranteed, ma belle femme suggested a 2-week romantic getaway in February for my 80th birthday. At first glance, the place seemed a bit pricey. However, after comparing Laluna to other resorts in a similar class, it seemed like a bargain. Only 16 chalets uniquely designed in a Balinese (South Pacific) style and 3 luxury villas, all set in the side of a tree-covered hill, far enough away from other establishments and buildings, so that you’re almost in the middle of nowhere. If you’re missing “civilization”, it’s a short 15-minute taxi ride St George’s, the major town in Grenada, population 30,000. The 16 chalets are arranged in four tiered rows on the side of a steep hill, almost hidden by natural greenery. A steep staircase takes you up the hill to your cabin. Be prepared for walking up steps – a good exercise for me after my open-heart surgery 8 months before. The thatch-covered, half-open-sided dining room faces the Caribbean Sea and a private sandy beach, waves crashing on the shore. The beach is walkable. The sea is swimmable. While the menus aren’t extensive, the food is good with more than enough variety to suit anyone’s appetite. Service is very friendly. The whole environment is very relaxing. If you want a change in dining, there’s lots of good restaurants a short taxi-ride away. After breakfast, I usually spent a lot of time in the thatched bar/lounge assembling a ¼-scale model building – one of my hobbies. With the breeze blowing through the open sides, protected from the sun by the thatched roof, I was able to focus on my project, pausing periodically to get a drink or to read of few more pages from my book. Time went by very slowly, the way I wanted it to be. Evenings were very pleasant, the waves crashing on the shore, the light of the sail boats near shore, cruise ships sailing in to St George’s, freighters going on to their next port of call. The absence of the hustle and bustle of civilization added to the serenity of the moment. Our objectives were to chill out, soak up the sun, enjoy the peace and tranquility of the moment, spend some quality time with ma belle femme … and do lots of nothing. Objectives achieved. Read less
