Recently stayed at the Allamanda for 1 week, and after reading the reviews was
pleasantly surprised. Check in on arrival was very quick and we were soon in our
room and unpacked. The room was basic, but well equipped with everything we needed -
good airconditioning, ceiling fan, cable t.v and coffee maker. The beds were a good size
and clean and comfortable. We had a good size balcony area with views of the lovely
well kept gardens. The rooms were cleaned every day and towels changed if needed, also
sheets changed once during our stay.
The location of this hotel is perfect, right on the fabulous Grand Anse beach, and the
hotel provides sun beds to take onto the beach. Also you are just over the road to
a shopping centre which has a food court.
Eating and drinking in the hotel bar/restaurant is very reasonably priced and was very good.
We also found the staff and management very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.
I would definately return to this hotel again, due to the very reasonable cost and location.

Drop the price to $25 per night to match the lack of quality or upgrade the place. My wife had to clean the bathroom and sheets of pubic hairs after checking in. The annoying noise was not the refrigerator hum (she unplugged it) - turned out it was mice or rats in the walls and doors. The door was rotten and could easily be breeched with a push. This is NOT a resort. It is a crappy, run-down motel. Front desk personnel was unsympathetic. Probably used to this by now! Avoid.

Recently had the opportunity to stay at the Allamanda Beach resort. Originally, I had planned to stay at another hotel but I booked here in order to meet up with a group of people who I would be sailing with. The first night I was not impressed by my room but it was late and I was tired... The room was clean, the pillows great and the bed comfy. The next morning I asked to moved and it was no problem. One of the best assets of this property, aside from its amazing location on Grand Anse beach, are the owners and staff. The owners live on-site and make a point of meeting and remembering every guest. The staff were excellent. Always smiling and ready to help. Very customer oriented!! Rooms are a bit worn around the edges, but large, immaculately clean, with big closets, comfortable beds & pillows, TV, a fridge and coffee maker. The pool is nicely kept. Beach chairs were always readily available and beach towels are available. There is an on-site restaurant and bar and the location puts you within walking distance to a variety of restaurants and food venues. Spiceland mall is across the field and it is a short walk to grab a 'crazy bus' into town. Stay here, save money and enjoy Grenada!!!

I have stayed several days at the Allamanda at least once a year for the past several years. I look forward to seeing the owners and their delightful staff on each trip. I am truly made to feel like I have returned home!

Allamanda is not a posh luxury accommodation; it is a good, clean, honest and comfortable place to stay. The rooms are equipt with a mini fridge and small coffee maker, AC, ceiling fan, etc. The beds are clean, neat and comfortable. It is very convenient to services of all types; an easy flat walk brings you to a mall with a modern grocery store, bank, ATM and shops, several small restaurants, and even a hardware store! At the edge of the property, catch the local bus to downtown St Georges ($1.00 US or $2.50 EC) to walk the town, visit the spice market, or the shops at the cruise ship mall.

Grand Anse Beach is one of the best on the island. I am amused by those who go on vacation and complain because the "local people" are there too. One of the many pleasures of traveling is to meet and interact with the residents. I've spent many pleasant afternoons getting to know the local folks who share their beach with us tourists. I've learned about some great places to visit; heard stories of the history of the island; learned about their sports and lifestyle.
