This was an amazing property for our first ever visit to Grenada! Absolutely beautiful grounds and architecture. Easy communication with Sharon, and the other staff we met were super nice as well. The villa is perfect for a couple who is spending most the vacation outside. Loved the pool (hard to find small places with a private pool in our price range), and the rooftop deck is super cool - views are just incredible.
I wasn't sure what to expect with the neighborhood beach and had hoped it would be a bit nicer. Although it had beautiful views, it wasn't great for hanging out when we were there - lots of debris and not swimmable. It might be better other times of the year. But it doesn't matter that much because the location of this property is so perfect - you're mere minutes away from Lance aux Epines beach, and it's an easy drive to Morne Rouge and Grand Anse too. I was worried it might be too far and we'd feel like we were in the car driving to beaches all the time, but it wasn't at all. We rented a car to get around and I would recommend that, as long as you can handle the driving. We got the hang of it in a couple days (and come from US, so opposite side driving for us).
We had only good food while here! Our two favorites were just down the road and while we drove, you could even walk from this property if the hills are not too much for you: We ate at Spice Affair twice (once had it delivered, once dined in) - it was the best Indian food I've ever had, and we ate and drank several times at the West Indies Beer Company.
I took one star off on the cleanliness scale because a lot of the silverware in the villa had crusty bits of old food on it; I usually wash all vacation rental dishes myself before using anyway because you just never know, but I would recommend the hosts add a check of the dishes to their normal turnover cleaning. Everything else we used in the kitchen (not much - just the coffee maker, toaster, and fridge) worked and was clean.
Also note there was no mosquito net. We had brought our own just in case because so many reviews had mentioned the mosquitos, and there was a handy hook above the bed to hang it from, so not a big deal for us; the hosts may have even had one available had we asked. If you are worried about that, I'd ask them ahead of time. They're pretty cheap and easy to pack if you need to bring one.
All in all a great vacation and we would love to come back to Turtleback Pavilion!
