Interaction with Guests
As we live in the main house, we are available for help and advice throughout your stay. Denis was born in Grenada so has extensive knowledge of everything you could possibly want to see and do on the Island, all the best places to visit and eat etc. We have two dogs, who would love extra walks with willing guests and are excellent alert dogs.
The Neighbourhood
Bathway is an area of outstanding beauty, situated in a quiet residential area. Friendly locals use the beach regularly although it is very quiet during the week and out of school holidays. Safe swimming is marked by the reef and has a lifeguard during the day. Fishing can be done on the cliffs opposite the flat or along the beach. There are several beach bars selling local rum, bar food/snacks. There are local country and cliff walks down to Levera beach (nesting beach of the endangered Leatherback Turtles ), Levera National park and Lake, and Savan Swazee. Most provisions can be bought at Sauteurs about 5 miles away, or from the larger busier town of Grenville about 10 miles. A small local shop is at River Sallee, a 15/20 minute walk.
Getting Around
Local buses from River Sallee, about a 15 to 20 minute walk, take you to Grenville (change for St Georges) and Sauteurs (nearest shopping town). A car is recommended but not essential, especially if you like walking along coastal routes to catch the bus. Buses from River Sallee are very cheap and regular and stop to pick you up and drop you at your request.
Other Things to Note
We can arrange tours of the Island and collection (at a cost) from the airport. Use of a washing machine within the house is available at additional cost. Due to environmental consciousness we have chosen not to fit air conditioning but the house is kept naturally cool due to the sea breezes. The breeze also ensures we are rarely troubled by mosquitoes and sandflys!!
We loved our stay, everything we needed kitchen wise. Clean home, great sound of crashing waves, beautiful beach breeze. Owners were great with communication before and during our stay and offered helpful tips of places to visit nearby.
I stayed for a week at The Glass House and enjoyed every minute of is. The apartment was clean and well laid out. It is close to the beach on the quiet side of the island which was the perfect location for me. I can't say enough great things about Jane and Denis. They were very warm and welcoming - providing me with a lot of information of the island. As others have said, they made sure to ask if I needed anything if they were going out. They offered to take me to some of the nearby sites and joined me on a couple of treks. They got groceries for me before I arrived, picked me up at the airport and dropped me off. I thoroughly enjoyed those trips with them - talking and connecting. They felt like family. Jane arranged a day tour of the island for me with a local guide. She also arranged for me to join the turtle tour at Levera Beach and, because I didn't have a car, made sure to check with someone so that I had a ride back late at night. Jane and Denis exemplify what it means to be great hosts!
The apartment is nice with a great view and front porch. Quiet with great wave sound. The beach within walking distance is great with a natural barrier that makes it easy for all to enjoy the water.
The property lived up to our expectations and more. The apartment was very clean, spacious and comfortably furnished. But the biggest asset was our terrific hosts. Jane and Dennis - never intrusive, but always thoughtful of our needs. They introduced us to their community and we thoroughly enjoyed being part of life in the area. So hard to leave and tremendous thanks to Jane and Dennis
Weso enjoyed exploring the northern part of Grenada, by foot, bus , taxi and occasional rides. Jane and Denis are very condiderate friendly and informative hosts. We felt right at home and spent quality time on the patioto listen to tree frogs at night,watch fireflies and listen to the surf.
If you need a quiet place to get away from the stresses of life,this is for you! The apartment was tastefully decorated and whistle clean. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. The ocean view was gorgeous and if you like hiking there is good opportunity for this. Bathway Beach is an easy walk away where you can enjoy an ocean swim and find tasty Grenadian cuisine. Definitely can recommend the Glass House!
Our hosts were amazing; they made great recommendations and we felt right at home. We wish we could have stayed longer!
Close to the ocean, so sea breezes help to keep it cool. Comfortably furnished and equipped for two. The beach is 5 minutes walk away, with safe swimming, and several kiosks selling food. Kind and friendly hosts. No shops nearby, so renting a car would be recommended.
Had a great time. Jane and Dennis went above and beyond to help us. Sitting on the patio listening to the ocean was by far my favorite thing to do.
If you're looking for an alternative to the more touristy part of the island, then this place is for you! Located in the quiet northern part of the island, the Glass House is far enough away to be quiet but with all the access to the island and with real local flair. The view from the veranda cannot be beat - wish we could wake up to it every morning! Jane and Denis are great hosts - happy to provide ideas, directions and more - Jane even made dinner reservations for us on the day we arrived so we didn't have to figure out dinner the first night. Made our arrival so much more relaxing! Highly recommended for couples looking for a quiet getaway to spend time together and enjoy Grenada.
