Fun & Friends at Woburn Villas

We had the great pleasure of staying at Woburn Villas
over the Easter holidays. Yvonne is a wonderful and friendly host and
cannot do enough to help make your vacation 'just right'. The place
itself is wonderfully bright and clean and very spacious with a lovely,
large balconly overlooking Woburn Bay. It was a great place to start and
end the day and hang out with our fun and friendly neighbors next door
as well.
Nestled in a residential area you will definitely need a car to get around, but it is not far from the main town, St. George's.
We would wholeheartedly recommend a stay at Woburn
Villas if you plan on visiting Grenada. No doubt that Yvonne will be
there with a big smile on her face to welcome you to the island!

Yvonne is a star!
Vicky W London, UK
Date of Stay: March 2010 |
We spent a week in Woburn Villas 19-26 March 2010 and throughly enjoyed our stay.
Yvonne was such a star - lots of fun and so helpful; including
shopping for us before we arrived, preparing a meal to heat up on our
first night, ferrying us to the supermarket and beach on the first day
before we got a jeep, arranging car hire etc etc.
The apartments are great, large, clean and pretty much brand
new. Yvonne has fitted all the mod cons so you won't be left wanting for
anything.
The only thing that prevented me giving this a 5* rating is the
location. It is a bit of a walking distance to any bars and shops and
you definitely need a car to get around easily. That said, once you have
a car it's pretty easy to get anywhere.
All in all it is a very affordable way to stay in Grenada and
I'd recommend it to anyone on a budget that still wants a bit of luxury.

A Great Holiday.

Date of Stay: March 2010 |
My partner and I were fortunate enough to spend a week at Woburn Villas in March this year.
Yvonne is an exceptional hostess! Her hospitality can not be
faulted, going out of her way to help organise the little extras such as
airport transfers (Yvonne greeted us and dropped us off at a more than
reasonable rate), car hire, groceries and recommending places to see and
things to do.
The pictures do not do Woburn Villas justice. They are truly
homely, exceptionally clean and comfortable. The generously proportioned
rooms and open living space provide ample room and it was lovely to
have all of the mod cons (dishwasher, washing machine, gas oven etc).
The balcony is the perfect setting for a romantic dinner and
glass of wine after a day spent relaxing on one of Grenada's picturesque
beaches or hiking in the mountains and swimming in the waterfalls.
We would most definitely recommend Woburn Villas for your holiday to Grenada and would love to return in the future.

Fantastic

My wife and I have just returned from a fantastic holiday at Woburn Villas.
Yvonne is a terrific host, friendly, chatty and ensures
your holiday is a truly memorable one. The apartments are very spacious
and very well equipped, every apartment has a fantastic view. If you
approach the apartments from the East you will see a impressive building
raised up on a hillside. At first glance we did not realise that this
was Woburn Villas, they looked amazing.
To be honest, we were suprised at the quality of these
apartments, the photographs in the advert do not quite do the property
justice. We would not hesitate to return. We just loved Grenada and
Woburn Villas.

A fantastic place to stay
Mr Harryman London, UK
Date of Stay: March 2010 |
My husband and I stayed at the
Woburn Villas to celebrate my birthday and our first wedding anniversary
and we weren't disappointed. Yvonne was fantastic from the moment we
enquired about the villa, from arranging jeep hire for us (highly
recommended) to going shopping for us and preparing a meal on arrival.
The apartments are huge, fully equipped and in a fantastic location up
in the hills. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Grenada and would
recommend a stay at the Woburn villas if you are looking to get off the
beaten track a little and like to do your own thing on holiday.

A great time was had by all.

My friends and I were fortunate enough to spend 10 great nights at Woburn Villas in March 2010.
The apartment was amazing. It even looked better than the
advertised pictures. It was very spacious, clean and modern. Plus it
benefited from a TV (cable), internet access and A/C. To be honest with
you, you won't be watching TV when you see the beautiful view of the bay
from your balcony.
Its approximately 15 mins by car from Grand Anse and St Georges
but don't let that discourage you as Yvonne will initially drive you to
these areas and if you require a car she will also arrange the hiring of
a vehicle.
Yvonne was a great host providing us with supplies and advice on places to go. She even offered to cook for us as well.
Thank you Yvonne for making our holiday a great experience to remember. Look forward to seeing you soon.
All the best

Holiday at Woburn Villas, Grenada
Bartho Trinidad
Date of Stay: February 2010 |

What a wonderful place! Spent 5 days excellent
accommodations with fine furnishings and exquisite amenities. The rooms
were large and airy, very clean and comfortable. There were two full
bathrooms, with large beds. The kitchen was supplied with all appliances
including a washing machine and a dish washer. Yvonne the owner, even
provided clothes clips to hang your clothes. The place was calm and
serene with high breezes to waft you to sleep while watching your cable
tv or movies on your dvd. Forgot to bring my laptop because internet
access was provided.
Security is not a problem, Motion detectors provided all around,
The apartment was also secured with an outside door and double locks.
There is a fire extinguisher in the apartment together with smoke
detector.
Yvonne our hostess, was warm and friendly and also very helpful
with tours and places to go. She even arranged our car rental. She is a
gem, offering us fresh fruits and vegetables from her garden.
We enjoyed our stay in Grenada, just knowing we had Woburn
Villas to come home to at nights. We slept like babies. Very wiling to
return to Woburn Villas in the future. God Bless you Yvonne.

What a set up!

My Husband and I were fortunate enough to spend five
happy nights at this lovely property, in late January , early February
2010.
We have never been so fortunate with our choice of rented
accommodation. The apartment was everything the advertisment said it
would be and more! The quality of the finish of the property was
amazing, particularly for the caribbean. Yvonne and Sammy must have
worked very hard with their builders to produce such a place.
The kitchen was every woman's dream with all the things you
could possibly want. The furnishings are stylish and the whole
atmosphere one of calm luxury.
The location is a little remote ffom the bustle of Grand Anse
and St Georges but don't let that put you off. The view is lovely, it is
cool and mosquito free when we were there.
Yvonne was happy to help us with transport problems as we did
not want to hire a car. Every day we took off somewhere different and
with Yvonne's help we managed to visit a number of different beaches and
St George's. She is a huge asset to this business with her way of
providing cheerful friendly assistance whenever asked for.
We were also able to help ourselves to garden fresh produce from
Yvonne's garden and wish to thank Rudolf, her general assistant for his
help.
If you are looking for fab accommodation at a fair price in
Grenada do not hesitate to book this apartment, your faith will be
rewarded.
We hope to return and in the meantime wish Yvonne and Sammy every good wish with their venture.

Luxury, extremely tasteful, thoughful extras. |
Kay and Martin Torquay, Devon, England.
Date of Stay: January 2010 |
First immpession...wow! Woburn
Villas a must for a return visit. . Only one bad point, a nowhere near
long enough, two nights, to experience the beautifully presented
accomodation so thoughtfully designed by Yvonne and Sam.
Spotlessly clean everywhere in huge open spacious rooms. The
Kitchen completely fitted out with all the appliances any cook would
dream about, right down to the decent saucepans and dishwasher! After
all if youre on holiday who should hand wash dishes.
The lounge with plenty of stylish seating, beautiful little
touches, soft lamps, cushions, flower arrangement on the coffee table,
tv for those that wish, door leading to the balcony with a stunning sea
view and natural East wind to keep you cool....both our two nights were
spent relaxing here. If you wish for the more adventurous evening then a
car would be a good idea. Having said that we found the buses in
Grenada much calmer than on other islands, very cheap, not sure in the
dark though.
Bedrooms immaculately dressed with flowing layers of curtains
rippling with the breeze....calming and no problems with any nibbling
insects in the night. Heaven.
Very attractive bathrooms with excellent shower...so clean, fresh and new.
So the perfect place to stay but even more is to come...Yvonne,
lovely, smiley, bubbly personality willing to help with any questions.
There when you need her and quietly busy keeping the place ticking over
when youre out and about. Full of local information about everything and
anything which reflects in the extensive amount of attention to detail
in her information pack. Very useful and time saving facts about so many
holiday related issues.
Yvonne picked us up from the airport for a very reasonable rate
and even stopped off at the supermarket for us to stock up, what turned
out to be the best kitchen we had used on our ten island hopping
holiday.
Martin and I are well seasoned travellers and would highly
recommend a stay at Woburn Villas. We are already planning our return,
this time with a car so we can get to see the rest of the secrets to be
found on the island. Our fleeting visit did take us into Georgetown the
centre and yet again we were bowled over with the civilized port area.
The local market was an experience in itself filling our senses with the
reason why Grenada is called 'Spice Isle'.
Thank you Yvonne for providing our favourite place to stay during our three weeks away. See you soon, best wishes,
Enjoy,
K

Even better than home

We had such a surprisingly delightful stay at Woburn
Villas. It was surprising in that it was a surprise where it was--a
hidden gem--at the end of the roads and turns we took, and without the
use of street signs on Grenada. When we arrived, the place looked (and
was) so much nicer than the Internet digital pictures could show. It's
so spacious and ultra-modern. The washing machine was an especially,
appreciated convenience! The building is new, immaculate, and tastefully
decorated. Yvonne has gone to much trouble to make the villas "just
like home," and even better. Plus, she put fresh flowers on the dining
table and in the bedroom--an excellent touch.
Besides the bay view and the warm breeze, the nutmeg, papaya, and banana trees on the property added to the ambiance.
During the days and evenings, the large door to the
balcony let in a great stream of Caribbean breeze, but for a good
night's sleep, there's a quiet (thank you!) and effective A/C in the
bedroom.
Yvonne was helpful with all our questions and needs,
willing to give us privacy, or be available. She has a great sense of
humor and genuine graciousness that made us grateful we had the chosen
to stay 3 nights at Woburn Villas. |
