We had another wonderful stay at Tradewinds. Fantastic location, incredible view, spacious, well appointed, well maintained home. Just perfect. Youâll never tire of sitting out on the veranda, soaking in the view and sea breeze. Amanda is so friendly and an excellent communicator. 5 star rental. Thank you so much for hosting us again⊠until next time!
I was in Batway with family for a family bereavement. Whilst the occasion was sad the location of our stay was quite replenishing and rejuvenating. Whilst the house could do with a little attention, sticky doors for one, the grounds were very well kept and the view from the veranda made up for any negative. What a view, seriously, a view you will never tire of and don't want to leave, one that ask you to stay and revive your love of nature and the ocean. Coming home after a trip out, the first this we did was to open that sticky door to the veranda, breathe and drink in the view and rest. I miss it already. Very enjoyable stay. Our host was very helpful and accommodating which was much appreciated.
Our stay at Tradewinds was absolutely perfect. The home and property are beautiful. Perfect location and incredible sea view with constant breeze. Loved the covered patio, spaciousness and privacy. It was very clean, the furnishings were lovely, beds comfortable and we had everything we needed. There is hot water in the shower, multiple fans, window screens and plenty of security bars and locks (though in a very lovely and safe area). Was wonderful to have a washing machine and large covered area for hanging. Bathway Beach is a short walk, bar and food available there. We had no issues with water, no issues at all. Communication was excellent throughout. Highly recommended. Thank you so much Amanda, we will definitely be back!
This house has one of the most beautiful views I have ever seen anywhere in the Caribbean. Loved sitting on the terrace gazing at it and enjoying the wonderful breezes and hummingbird sightings. We also were able to connect with several very genial locals and expats such as Maggie at the nearby beach bar who organized weekly walks while we were there. The bed in the master bedroom was so comfortable it made us consider getting a new one when we got home. Stephen, the local property manager, was very helpful and got this coffee addict a coffee maker when requested. A highlight of our stay was a wonderful meal of local food at the Melting Pot cafeteria in Grenville, and they have an excellent bakery too. Not easy to find but worth the effort. If you want to experience the real Grenada rather than the tourist Grenada, this is the place. All in all we enjoyed our stay.
Things to know: there is no hot water in the house except through a kind of attachment on the shower head. I heated water in the electric kettle to wash dishes. There is no glass in the windows, just good screens and metal louvers. We still felt completely secure, however after a rainy spell we had a problem with mosquitos. The water went out three times during our stay due to municipal water issues. We appreciated a plumber being sent to check things out but nothing could be done until the municipal issue was fixed. In the meantime we boiled water to drink.
There are not many restaurants in the area so we ended up cooking and eating at the house more than we really would have liked.
Know also that it is a rugged 2 hour drive from St Georgeâs where the airport is to get to the house. Due to people and animals on the road and sharp drop offs I would not recommend doing it at night or without a good nav system under any circumstances!!
With Grenadian roots we can give recommendations and advice. Looking for off the beaten path activities? Or a place to dine or listen to music? Or the best roti? Please contact us and weâll share our favorites!
Bathway and the Levera area are going through a revival. Itâs a beautiful place to get away. Tradewinds is a quiet place to escape and have a Grenadian experience.
Tradewinds is walking distance to an active beach frenquented by locals and tourists alike. Shops with food and visitors center across the street from the beach. Bathrooms and showers available for a fee. Beach can be rough so only experienced swimmers should go in the water. Do not go beyond the breakers. No lifeguards are on duty.
