We had an incredible stay at the Calabash Hotel and are already planning our next trip. If I could rate the hotel above five stars, I would. I could write pages and pages about why the hotel is so fantastic, but I’ll try to be brief: Accommodation – our suite (#1) had a great view of the bay and wa...

During a recent visit to Grenada, I stopped at the Calabash for dinner. First, I was seated in the bar area and had the best local margarita I ever had. The service was warm and welcoming. I then moved to a lovely table. The food was tasty and the flavors were vibrant with local ingredients and ...

From pre-arrival email correspondence, to the staff waving goodbye at our departure, everything was worthy of more than 5 stars! Accomodations were luxurious and spacious: fully stocked mini bar included many complimentary options, Elemis bath products, fluffy towels, fine bedding, comfy couches/cha...

What a find. Lovely family run hotel , private lodge style rooms, with a special beach location. Fantastic tasting organic food, friendly staff and a relaxed vibe . not too big. Local diving company next door. Once discovered we will be back.

We had high expectations for the Calabash hotel, and it did not disappoint. The food was spectacular. We chose the all-inclusive option, but the food was what you would expect from a 5 star restaurant. Every meal was fabulous, with really fresh ingredients. While there are only three restaurants on ...

The Daily Reality

Food, pools & the beach itself

Where you'll actually spend the week — how many places there are to eat and drink, what the pool scene offers, and what the water in front of the resort is really like.

Dining & bars

3 restaurantsReservations at some venues Caribbean · international · fine dining · beach club

Official and Expedia sources identify Rhodes Restaurant, The Beach Club and additional dining/bar venues; Rhodes Restaurant is included in the all-inclusive and half-board plans.

Pools & waterplay

1 pool

Calabash has a main pool, while select suites and villas add private plunge pools.

The beach itself

Calm, swimmable waterSnorkeling from shoreSargassum: seasonal (variable in the southern Caribbean)

Official FAQ describes Calabash as directly on a calm, sheltered beach suitable for swimming and paddleboarding.

Venue counts come from the resort's own pages; beach conditions draw on monitoring data and consistent traveler reports — the sea doesn't read press releases, so treat seasonal notes as odds, not promises.

For Families

Taking the kids to Calabash Hotel?

A family week turns on the details brochures skip — whether the kids' club is genuinely supervised, who watches the baby on date night, and whether four of you fit in one room. Here's what we've verified.

Questions parents ask

Is the beach at Calabash Hotel good for young children?

The water in front is typically calm. Sargassum seaweed is seasonal (variable in the southern Caribbean) — check recent reports for your travel month.

Do you need dinner reservations at Calabash Hotel?

At some restaurants — book the à la carte venues early in your stay and keep the buffet as the no-plan fallback for meltdown nights.

Kids' club ages, hours, and babysitting availability change seasonally — confirm with the resort before booking.

Pros

  • Exceptional service and food consensus.
  • Quiet beachfront boutique atmosphere.
  • Suites and villas emphasize privacy, balconies and luxury touches.

Cons

  • All-inclusive is optional and has exclusions.
  • High price point.
  • Small scale means fewer facilities than a large all-inclusive resort.

Things to know

  • Calabash is a boutique luxury hotel with an optional all-inclusive plan, not a default wristband-style mega-resort.
  • The official all-inclusive rate information has meaningful exclusions, especially spa treatments, diving, motorized watersports and wine-list bottles.
  • This is best for travelers who want calm, service, food and privacy more than a wide activity lineup.

Hidden tips

  • Compare half-board and all-inclusive pricing carefully; the official promotion structure shows that meal-plan upgrades can materially change value.
