Laluna Boutique Hotel & Villas

Grenada, Caribbean

Virgin rating

The hotel

This boutique Caribbean getaway is located in Portici Bay and has just 16 cottage and villas, guaranteeing peace and privacy. Laluna has been designed to incorporate a blend of Caribbean, Italian and Balinese influences in the architecture and style. This blend of cultures also extends to the dining experience as the restaurant serves a bounty of Italian dishes created with local organic produce, opening directly onto the beach so you can dine with spectacular views of the sea. Laluna embodies the slow pace of Grenada life by providing you with many ways to get that well deserved R&R, so book yourself in for a traditional Balinese massage and let your worries slip away. The most magical time of the day, however, is sunset - head to the bar and ask for the 'Sunset Point Carry Bag', and enjoy a glass of wine with a glorious view.

We had an exceptional stay here. Our cottage was fantastic with its own little dip pool, deck and view. The property offers beachfront swimming, an art studio, a spa, and a swimming pool with adjacent bar and covered sitting area. The grounds are extensive and are decorated with whimsical artwork and shaded paths to stroll. The restaurant was consistently excellent for all meals (however we only had breakfasts and dinners). While we love Grenada and often get out to explore the island, this property offers anything you could possibly want for a reclusive, restful getaway. But what impressed us the most was the manner in which all of the staff consistently went out of their way to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. To a person, they all seemed genuinely motivated to make our stay a great experience. And it was. We will certainly return and recommend LaLuna to friends and family. Read less

We loved Grenada and are very happy we chose to stay at LaLuna. We were greeted by Tracy when we arrived. Tracy was super sweet and very helpful with anything we needed during our stay. We stayed in cottage 10. While it is not one of the cottages at the top of the hill, it is still a hike up quite a few steps. We loved our cottage. The deck was wonderful with the comfortable furniture and we even stayed out there during some of the brief showers..The plunge pool was not really anything special but a nice, private feature nonetheless. The bathroom as many mention, is basically outside. That was not our favorite. It is pretty much all concrete and got very warm. It wasn’t a huge issue for us but would be better if the areas other than the shower were enclosed. The food at LaLuna was excellent. Our stay included breakfast which was great and offered a lot of choices. We had lunch a few times and dinner twice on property. Again, the food was very good. The service was also wonderful. Our server most of the time was Rawla, and she was lovely. I participated in a yoga class with Fay. The pavilion is a beautiful place to practice yoga. I enjoyed the class but it was more meditation than yoga. I was still happy that I went as it was very relaxing. I also had a massage with Adi(?) which was probably the best massage I've ever had. Lying on the massage table listening to the birds singing and the fountain trickling outside made it magical. Thank you to everyone at LaLuna (Tracy, Rawla, Jeannette, Dwight, Tricia, and more) for making our trip so fun and special. The location is amazing and we loved the boutique feel and Bohemian vibe at the hotel. We will be telling our friends and family to add Grenada (and especially LaLuna) to their bucket lists.

My husband and I stayed at La Luna Hotel in July. He planned it as a surprise celebration for our 40th anniversary. Unfortunately, it was not what we had expected. We have traveled all over the world visiting all 7 continents and mostly prefer to stay in small boutique hotels. He briefly read about this hotel on Tripadvisor and because it was a spur-of-the-moment trip, he didn’t take his timing reading reviews, especially the negative ones. He purchased a 4-night stay at $600.00 dollars a night; breakfast not included. He notified the hotel that this was a special occasion. Usually hotels give small perks for special occasions, this was definitely not the case at La Luna. When we arrived, the taxi driver took us to a tiny room which they call the “reception area” and a lady named Shennaya checked us in. The first thing we noticed was that the pool was not very clean; In the time we spent there, we never once saw anyone use it except to rinse the sand off their feet. Red flag #1. Shennaya then took us to the room and showed us around; the room was dated and in desperate need of renovation. The bathroom is separated from the bedroom by a door which you had to lock before you left the room otherwise anyone can come into your room. Also, there was no A/C in the bathroom because it had an “outdoor shower” so don’t plan on spending much time doing your makeup or drying your hair; it was worse than a sauna. To make matters worse, there was always a terrible stench in the bathroom which permeated itself into the towels (which were torn and stained). There were also tons of mosquitos and bugs, which is expected in the Caribbean, so ensure you bring bug repellent or be prepared to pay $20 a can at the hotel since they do not provide this to their guests like other 5 star hotels do. The plunge pool is literally a concrete hole in the ground, not painted or finished, with a floating filter that never worked. The restaurant staff was also not properly trained or for that matter, have any common sense. During our first breakfast, I asked for cream for my coffee and they brought me butter cream frosting. On our last day, we were lounging by the pool when we heard a loud noise and saw a plume of smoke; they were fumigating grounds. No notice was provided to guests, so with that, all the guests fled to their rooms as did we. We then decided to relax in our room’s terrace when we noticed all the smoke and fumes coming into our terrace, that was the end of a relaxing afternoon. After the second night’s dinner, we knew we had to leave even though we were not going to be reimbursed for the last day. We found another beautiful property very close by and stayed there for the last day, which by the way was spectacular! And because our three days of awfulness there wasn’t enough, the hotel staff had the audacity to call the new hotel looking for us to tell us we had incidentals to pay for when we had not yet checked out. We never told them we were leaving or checking out so assuming they watched us walk over to the other hotel — creepy. Unfortunately, we have many more negative things to say and could go on for a while. The only silver lining is the opportunity to write this review and save other travelers the hassle of staying at La Luna. Read less
