This is a really good option for 2 or 3 days trip. Its a place to relax and just enjoy the beach and the pool. Since its not a new hotel, probably needs some maintennace or update cause looks a little bit 90s. if you love sports you can find many activities on this place, like paddle surf, scuba diving,...

This is an extremely nice hotel - but it is very expensive for what it is - it is also quite difficult to get to by car as you cannot access it through the town - you must drive about 15 km around the town. Still it is a lovely setting and you can get into town by a small... More

We have been comming to Grand Bay Hotel (staying in the marina, on a megayacht) since 2002. The staff has ALWAYS been supurb. They know us by name. I have seen the standard rooms, and the suites: UNBELIEVABLE. The corridors are all so tranquil, and the sound of the in-house guitarista; Emerson. His music wafting throughtout the property at night. More

I am quite picky when it comes to hotels and often rather unimpressed, but the Grand Bay was simply amazing! The hotel is set within an exclusive gated community, a long way through winding cobbled streets overlooking golf courses and the water. Upon pulling up to the lobby, our luggage was taken immediately, the car was driven off, we were... More

My husband and I stayed at the Grand Bay from March 19 thru March 27. From the moment we arrived we were charmed by the hotel , the staff and the beauty of the location. Each morning, because our spacious and graciously appointed room overlooked the marina, we could open our curtains, get back into bed, prop up our pillows... More

The property is beautiful, the service is great. The food at the different restaurants was delicious. The Water Taxi is a great & inexpensive way of moving to and from the island. Beautiful sunrises, sunsets, pools, and gardens. Will definitely be back!!! More

My wife and i have been to some of the most beautiful hotels in the world. Unfortunately, the "grand" bay hotel was not one of them. When you think of the term "grand" in connection with a hotel you think of the beautiful Grand Wailea resort in Maui or the amazing Grand Hyatt in Seoul, it is almost blasphemous that... More

We spent four nights at the Grand Bay Hotel over the Christmas holiday. The hotel surpassed my expectations, We had a lovely room, beautifully appointed and the service was excellent. The staff are friendly and very attentive. There are several restaurants in the hotel and we tried three of them. They were somewhat of a disappointment and I actually did... More
