Boasting year-round sunshine, low crime rates and pristine white sand beaches – not to mention tonnes of tasty tree-to-bar chocolate, it’s not surprising that the eastern Caribbean island of Grenada and its sister islands Carriacou and Petite Martinique are currently trending as global travel destinations. While you might think you’d need to save up a few grand or take out a credit card to finance your Grenadian getaway, this needn’t be the case. Although luxury resorts are bountiful, it’s entirely possible find Grenada hotels to suit all budgets. Take Seabreeze Hotel Grenada, for example.

Seabreeze Hotel Grenada
Perched at the top of a slope overlooking a tennis and basketball court sitting directly in front of Grenada’s award-winning Grand Anse Beach in St. George’s, Seabreeze Hotel offers rooms from as little as $50 per night excluding taxes – that’s less than £39! The rates are the same even during special events like Grenada Chocolate Festival and the Spicemas Carnival, making Seabreeze Hotel Grenada a popular choice of accommodation for attending tourists.
A range of rooms
Newly renovated for 2018, the sixteen rooms feature air conditioning, WiFi, refrigerators, kettles, toasters and microwaves, while some rooms also feature cookers, providing a self-catering option. Should you require the use of an iron and ironing board, or perhaps a hairdryer, you can loan both from reception. All of the rooms are spotlessly clean and there is a daily maid service.
Although the $50/night Backpacker Room doesn’t have air conditioning, it does have a fan and all the essentials you’ll need for your stay. If you’re happy to fork out a little more, you can book a studio lux with pantry ($95), studio lux with kitchen ($100), pool-side studio with pantry ($110), or the top floor two-bedroom apartment with kitchen ($200). My Studio Lux room had everything I needed for my stay and it was conveniently located on the ground floor, near to the pool.
While none of the rooms offer anywhere near to the same level of luxury as the private resorts that line Grand Anse Beach, and admittedly the hot water supply and WiFi are a little temperamental at times, Seabreeze Hotel Grenada is the ideal base for a comfortable and affordable stay, with all the basic essentials covered.
Hotel highlights
This budget-friendly boutique hotel even has its very own swimming pool, and on a sweltering hot day, the sparkling water looks so inviting against the backdrop of the eye-popping pink and aqua blue hotel front. An Instagram shot just waiting to happen.
Meanwhile, at the rear of the hotel, there is a comfy living space with a kitchen, dining table and a BBQ. Although the hotel doesn’t offer breakfast, you can help yourself to coffee and the nearby shops stock a range of fresh fruit, cereals and pastries ideal for a DIY breakfast buffet.
Minutes from Grand Anse Beach
Undoubtedly, Seabreeze’s proximity to Grand Anse Beach is one of its biggest selling points. One of the top ten beaches in the world, Grand Anse Beach consists of two miles of unspoilt ivory sand and shimmering turquoise sea. You’ll struggle to find anywhere else as cheap as this anywhere near Grand Anse Beach, Simply cross the road and follow the path, and you’ll reach the beach within less than three minutes.
The best time to visit is early evening, around 5-6pm. Buy a Grenadian Stag beer from one of the beach bars, lay your beach towel down on the sand and get yourself comfy, just in time to watch the kind of sunset that’ll leave you with an overwhelming sense of awe, and have the hairs on the back of your neck standing on end.
What to do during your stay
If you’re a watersports fan, hire a snorkel kit or paddleboard from Seabreeze and set your inner water baby free in the comfortingly cool waters of the Caribbean Sea.The hotel is also located opposite a bus stop, so if you’re keen to explore the island and don’t have your own means of transport, consider catching the bus. If you’d prefer to take a guided tour, excursions to Grenada’s top attractions can be arranged at reception.
There are so many more reasons to visit Grenada and as cliche as it sounds, there’s never a dull moment on the Island of Spice.

Wow, you are lucky. Will there be a food blog of Grenada to follow?
I’ve already published a post on Grenada Chocolate Festival. However, I do have further Grenada posts planned.
It had me at the colours I am never that bothered by room luxury no point in staying in a room on holiday I want to be put exploring. I am fascinated by a chocolate festival in a hot country though
Oh, Grenada Chocolate Festival was one of the best things about my trip!
Wow Grenada looks fabulous. I didnt realise it had year round sunshine 🙂 The hotel rooms look great for a basic room and the added benefit of a pool is fantastic
I thought the hotel was great too. It was clean and we had everything we needed, so for the price, you just can’t go wrong really.
This is really making me want to book a holiday. I’m feeling the cold now and the hotel there and beach look great, i love ivory sand x
I could quite happily move to the Caribbean, haha!
OMG that bed is mahoosive!! The hotel looks amazing, I would love to visit the Caribbean
It is my favourite part of the world!
This looks a great hotel for the price. I can’t get over the size of that bed!

It was huge! And I’m only 4ft 11, so you can imagine how roomy it was for me!
Ohh wow Grenda must have been a dream. The Seabreeze looks as if it has a good range of rooms avaiable to suit all budgets. Mich x
It truly was amazing. Seabreeze was the perfect base for our stay.
This looks like a great place to stay. That sunset looks awesome
One of the best sunsets I have ever seen. You can’t beat a Caribbean sunset.
We spend very little time in hotel rooms so affordable is good with me! The sunset must be incredible
Me too. When I travel, I want to experience the destination, not stay couped up in the hotel!
Wow what a great price for the hotel room! That bed is huge and it looks so nice and airy!
Yes, it’s extremely affordable. Something to suit all budgets!
Good place for a budget-friendly hotel especially that it’s near the beach. And right, you didn’t really just go there to stay at the hotel the whole time, right?
Exactly. You can lie by the pool or chill out anywhere you go, but when I travel I like to really explore a destination.
I’m so happy to see this post. I lived here and it’s great to see you point out beaches other than grand anse! Love bbc and I’m so happy that you pointed this one out.
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the read 😀 I hope to come back to Grenada again someday.
