I had the opportunity to stay at True Blue Bay Boutique Resort during my trip to Grenada! This was my first time visiting the “Spice Isle” and True Blue made it an unforgettable experience. Below, I’m sharing a review of my stay at True Blue Bay Boutique Resort.
Disclaimer: I was a guest of True Blue Bay Boutique Resort, but all opinions here are my own.
Getting to True Blue Bay Boutique Resort
Once you’ve arrived at Maurice Bishop International Airport, the True Blue team can send a complimentary shuttle for pickup. And the drive is very quick, only about 10 minutes away! Be sure that you book this service before arriving in Grenada (at least 48 hours prior).
You’ll be dropped off and greeted in front of the reception area where you’ll check in. And then escorted, via a golf cart, to your room and given a mini-tour of the resort.
Rooms
You can choose from villas, suites, or rooms at True Blue, depending on your group size and needs. I stayed in one of their ocean-inspired Cocoa Pod rooms, which included:
- 🛏️ King bed and a pull-out studio couch
- 🍳 Compact kitchen with a sink, mini-fridge, microwave, and stove
- 👚 Iron and ironing board
- 🚽 Bathroom that offers shampoo, conditioner, and body wash
- 🍽️ Dining table
- 📺 Television
The room is spacious and included a patio with views of the lush lap pool.
Restaurant + Bar
Dodgy Dock Restaurant and Bar
One of the best and most popular restaurants in Grenada, in fact, check their Google and Tripadvisor reviews if you don’t believe me. This colorful, open-air restaurant offers stunning views, great service, and a mix of local, Caribbean, and international dishes.
Dodgy Dock serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner and also offers different themed nights, including:
- Wednesday Street Food Night: Their busiest night of the week filled with local street food vendors, live music, and more
- Saturday: Their signature Caribbean Style Calypso BBQ and Buffet night
The Rum Shop Bar
Located near their beach pool, the Rum Shop Bar is where you can get rum cocktails and other beverages. I love their swings around the bar to sit on, but you can also take your drinks to nearby pools.
True Blue Experiences
Around the resort
There’s plenty to do and enjoy around True Blue if you don’t want to leave, including:
- Relaxing in all 4 of their swimming pools;
- Get a massage at their tree-top spa, Blue Haven Spa;
- Taking yoga classes at their ocean view yoga studio, Sankalpa Studio;
- Scuba diving through the True Blue Bay Boutique Resort and Aquanauts;
- Indulge in chocolate treats at the House of Chocolate Bakery;
- Or, even shopping at their gift shop, called Truebluetique.
Around Grenada
True Blue can also schedule tours for you around Grenada — because, what can’t they do at this point, right 😂? We booked a half-day tour and our guide was truly amazing, we learned a lot about Grenada through him! During our tour, we visited the House of Chocolate Museum, Annandale Falls, Spice Market, and Grand Etang National Park.
Want to have a beach day at the nearby Grand Anse Beach or Morne Rouge Beach (BBC)? Well, True Blue also provides complimentary shuttle service to, and from, both beaches every day.
Conclusion
Sharing some final thoughts from my stay at True Blue Bay Resort:
- I love that check-out is at noon instead of the standard 11 am, that extra hour truly made a difference
- True Blue Bay is definitely family-friendly, but also a great accommodation for friends, couples, and even groups
- Daily breakfast is also included in your stay
- Upgrade your stay to an all-inclusive and have all meals, drinks, and entertainment included
- True Blue Bay is truly the epitome of an eco-chic resort, they’re passionate about sustainability. In fact, here are some fun facts about their green list:
- They have electric golf carts used to transfer luggage and guests
- Solar panels provide 30% of electricity needs at full occupancy
- They collect and store rainwater for the dry season
- No chlorine is used on the property — in fact, all pools are treated with salt water
All in all, I’d highly recommend staying at True Blue Bay Boutique Resort if you’re making a trip to Grenada!
