The hotel

Perfectly positioned on Grand Anse, Grenada's most beautiful beach. This luxurious All-Inclusive resort, owned and run by the gracious Hopkin family, offers superb, spacious accommodation, a welcoming atmosphere, top-class cuisine, spa facilities and excellent service. The white, gently sloping sands of Grand Anse Beach are perfect for romantic walks, water sports, or simply soaking up the sun; or perhaps you'd like to indulge in a treatment at the hotel's own spa or explore the local area with complimentary bike hire. Families are welcome year-round with the option of interconnecting rooms, complimentary year-round kids club and dedicated children’s menus.

The rooms are quite large and spacious; the beach is amazing, the pool is clean and in a nice location, only steps away from the bar and steps away from the beach. The spa is quite nice and the property is easy to move around. Def a great place to stay in Grenada if your budget allows. Read less

We returned to this beautiful resort with friends who we met there in 2015. We were looking forward to seeing the changes made in the last couple of years & the overall impression didn't disappoint with the lighter coloured furnishings in public areas. The staff are as welcoming & efficient as ever & it was nice to see the familiar face of Fabian still there; now in a more senior managerial role. We chose an Anthurium Pool Suite this time & enjoyed spending a bit of time on our own terrace - though the small pool was very cold despite the air temperature! We were told they will now be starting a programme of bedroom renovations &, although they are very clean, comfortable & have obviously been repainted regularly, the furnishings & bathrooms are now outdated. New technology such as a wide screen tv, Alexa & Nespresso machines have been added. All food & drink was once again of a very high standard though the evening menu didn't vary during our week except for a Caribbean theme eve. There are a number of dishes to choose from & some specials each day; however we found lamb dishes were the special on 3 consecutive nights. It was very low occupancy while we were there but that didn't matter too much to us as we were there with friends. We had the main pool area pretty much to ourselves most afternoons. Lovely comfortable sunbeds with plenty of umbrellas & multiple towels. We loved our return visit but found the stop-off in St Lucia in both directions a bit tedious on the BA flight. We have recommended Spice Island to others over the years & everybody has loved it there. It's still the nicest Caribbean resort we've been to but then again it's by far the most expensive! Read less

Spice Island Beach Resort had been on my travel list for a while so we decided to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary there a few weeks ago. It exceeded every expectation from the moment we arrived!! The property is beautiful and well maintained. It sits on the most beautiful beach with stunning water. The rooms are just as pictured and have everything you need. Plenty of chairs and secluded spaces all over the beach so never a need to reserve chairs!! It is quiet and private- almost like being on your own island. If you are looking for a party or Sandals atmosphere this is not it. That is what makes the resort special! The dining areas are just as pretty and all overlook the beach and water. And the food!!! It really is a 5 star chef prepared all inclusive meal plan!! You order off of a menu and there are chef specialties too. Some meals it was so hard to decide between lobster or the red snapper,etc. We also booked excursions to see the highlights of Grenada. They were personally crafted by the concierge staff and were for just us. We toured the nutmeg museum, chocolate factory, waterfalls, and a private catamaran trip. All were fabulous! And as a special treat, they sent picnic lunches with us!! But the REAL REASON to come to Spice Island Beach Resort is the staff!!! I have traveled extensively and I have never felt more at home or welcome at a resort before. Literally every single person greeted us with our names, a smile, asked if they could do anything for us, how our day was, etc. They wanted to make sure the food was perfect, the room was perfect, they wanted to go beyond the extra step. And the thing is, it was genuine. I don't want to list names of staff in case I leave someone off accidentally but I am pretty sure they all know how much I appreciated them. They made a special trip very memorable and we will be back!!! :)) Read less

We just returned from our 4th stay and it was excellent. We really liked the decor/style updates, the new no-buffet breakfast set up and, as ever, the whole place is beautifully kept, especially the gardens and beach areas. We really loved the beautiful sea grape beach room which made early morning swims both easy and a must! The view from the room is special. The food is excellent, we would have liked more frequent menu changes but the daily specials were often a great option. As with every visit we’ve made the staff make this place a real pleasure and are outstanding in every department. Special mentions to Katrina, Nia, Gary, Kashir, Shawn, Danielle, Lydonna, Reannah and Stephanie, with apologies to all those whose names we didn’t catch, all excellent. It had been 7 years since our previous visit but I am pretty sure it won’t be that long before we go back! Highly recommend. Read less
