Grenada’s Home Hospitality
Grenada’s Home Hospitality scene is the place to go if you’re yearning for an island getaway that tastes like home, smells like nutmeg and cinnamon, and moves at a welcoming island pace. Choose immersive stays and experiences that introduce you to local cuisine, gardening, culture, and friendly, personal hosts who treat you like family instead of the sterile hotel buffet.
Mt. Parnassus Inn, a family-style vacation property that serves as an ideal starting point for visiting the southern “tourism belt,” is located in the hills above St. George’s. The inn, which is perched atop Mount Parnassus and offers expansive views of St. George’s and the port, offers a tranquil, cozy substitute for beachside resorts. If you desire the conveniences of a home kitchen, verandas, and space to spread out while yet being close to important locations, this is a good choice.
Two of Grenada’s main attractions, food culture and water sports, are easily accessible from Mount Parnassus. Learn how to prepare traditional Creole dishes, visit a spice or vegetable garden, and sample rum punches and regional specialties by scheduling a Home Hospitality Grenada experience. The company specializes in interactive, reservation-only culinary and agrotourism events that are highly recommended by tourists. These encounters provide you with more than just pictures—recipes and anecdotes to take home.
The world’s first underwater sculpture garden, the Molinere Underwater Sculpture Park, is a magnificent, eerie reef and art project that is accessible via scuba diving and snorkeling. Water enthusiasts should schedule time to visit. In addition to being a unique dive, it’s a significant conservation success story: sculptures have evolved into man-made reefs that draw marine life and produce amazing underwater photographs. Regular trips are operated by tour firms based in Grand Anse and St. George’s.
Speaking of Grand Anse, the island’s convivial beach bars, water sports, and laid-back eateries are along this two-mile stretch of white sand and serene, blue water. It’s a perfect place to start or finish your trip because it’s only a short distance from Maurice Bishop International Airport. Grand Anse is great for lounging with a rum punch or sampling coconut bread from a nearby bakery.
Practical tips to get the most from Home Hospitality Grenada and Mt Parnassus Inn:
- Make reservations in advance for home hospitality experiences. Many have limited seats and are only available via reservation.
- Rent a car for a couple of days if you want to explore waterfalls and remote beaches at your own pace; otherwise, arrange day tours from St. George’s.
- Bring reef-safe sunscreen and a light rain jacket (tropical showers are brief but frequent).
- Enjoy leisurely mornings with a view of Mount Parnassus and a cup of locally brewed coffee.
Home Hospitality Grenada is ideal if you want stories, skills, and real connections alongside beautiful beaches and world-class snorkeling. Pair an authentic Home Hospitality cooking class with a few nights at Mt Parnassus Inn, and you’ll leave with a full belly, a head full of island songs, and a suitcase of flavors to recreate at home.
