Incredible vacation

The Royalton is a lush, tropical resort that has friendly, helpful staff. The facilities and grounds were well maintained and clean. The food was excellent and the bars had a large variety of drinks. The perks of the diamond club were worth getting.

Paradise in Grenada!

The Royalton Grenada has done a beautiful job of upgrading everything it offers, from maintaining pristine grounds, to varied food venues, to its personal service. Scuba diving with Eco Dives was everything you could hope for, with the friendliest staff imaginable.

Excellent Resort

Very clean, staff was very friendly, food was excellent. I really enjoyed having a dive site on the resort with knowledgeable people. Christine, Kewon, Ashley, Ron, Wayne, and the captain etc. are all awesome and made my stay very enjoyable. Will definitely come back.

Amazing location

We had an extremely enjoyable stay at the Starfish Grenada Resort. The staff was on the whole helpful and efficient. The major advantages of this resort were the location to the airport, the stunning beach and the amazing, picture perfect sunsets. This resort will be even better once the renovations to the Royalton brand are completed. Thank you Rick for making this booking.

Great Staff, a little dated, NOT FOR FOODIES

A nice resort just minutes from the airport. The two beaches are beautiful however because of rocks only the northern beach is really suitable for swimming. Lots of shade and chairs so you are not fighting for them. The food although good was not of a great variety. A lot of repeats so got boring pretty fast. We were surprised that there was not more of a variety of fruit offered being a sub tropical island. Overall we were please and had a good vacation. They are undergoing renovations soon so [... read more] things will be even better.

Starfish grenada

This is our second visit to the starfish resort and hopefully not our last. The hotel is very close to the airport within walking distance the rooms are clean. The people at this resort are very friendly and hopefully they will be back when the hotel reopens Hopefully the pricing will be affordable when the resort opens in december

Awesome!

Starfish Grenada, great resort! Travelled as a couple. Great location and friendly and efficient staff, very accommodating and willing to assist in any way. Hotel was clean, food was great, beach was beautiful and location couldn't be better, less than five minutes from the airport. Grenada is a beautiful island and friendly Grenadians! Will definitely consider another visit to this resort! T&MM

Beautiful country!

I really enjoyed Starfish/Rex resort! Great food - 2 restaurants to enjoy your regular meals( 1 oriental a-la-carte restaurant), clean room (bed, towels, floors - daily), friendly staff (with smile, politness, and fun), beautiful beach (turcoise water, trees for shade, chaise lounges available), nice pool area (canopy beds, bar and restaurant, excellent view, but only 4 feet deep the pool - as a little minus) and...amazing little country. I recommend anyone to take Jamboulay tour with Michael as [... read more] guide :-).Entertainment was good enough for a resort that is to close for renovation in a month. The DJ played any song you told him too, so I danced a lot ;-). Don't wait to book this!!!

Wonderful holiday

Just returned from Starfish and just want to thank all the amazing staff and Chris Forbes.It was my husbands birthday and they surprised him with a Birthday cake and bottle of champagne in our room.The location is the best on this island.We would highly recommend the full day island tour through Air Canada.Our driver was Dexter and he was amazing.This man was so knowledgeable about everything on the island from folklore and superstition to history and flora.He even found a plant called a sensiti [... read more]ve plant? When you touch it gently it closes up. Beach is beautiful and food delicious! I hope we can return again when it reopens as Royalton!

Starfish, grenada

When we arrived in Grenada, we where taken into the terminal, at that time, given a declaration from to fill in.. 200 passengers looking for a place to sit, on the floor, to fill this in, should have been handed out on the plane to fill in, would have saved a lot of time. Got to the hotel, had 3 lines to stand in by your last name, to check in. We finally got yo the counter, and where told our room would not be ready for an hour.. but have us time to grab a bite to eat. Room, grounds were [... read more] clean.fantastic views.what amenities we used, where clean and in newer condition. Food, another story . Did not have a "hot meal", all luke warm at best. Limited choices Met sunwing rep, went through the programs/ excursions. Knew her stuff, but forgot to mention, everything was shown in $us and would be converted to Caribbean currency@a 2.75 exchange rate. Was a shock when I paid, expected to be paying 146 us and card was charged 390. Did not catch this immediately , did later, took 2 days to track another rep down to have explained dhat they did. We did the fusion tour, and our guide Glenn, was a wealth of knowledge and we had a blast with him on both trips we did. We felt we were an inconvenience trying to tip the staff, they where pleasant enough, but where made to feel we where bothering them, trying to give them a tip... who knows.. maybe were not suppose to? Saying that.. if you did not tip the bar staff... good luck trying to get another drink brought to you. Over all, had fantastic weather, was with my spouse and we had a great time. Will go back again, if nothing else to see what changes the royalton will implement and what they are going to construct... if the pricing doesn't go through the roof.

Below average

We were a little disappointed. We knew the hotel was closing soon but they we out of food at different meals. They asked if we were celebrating an event and then forgot 3 birthdays in our group of 12. My friends partner had spoken to then twice they assured him there would be cake, champagne and balloons. They eventually brought out 1 bottle of champagne for 12 people and 3 slices of banana bread. A party the night before got a lovely cake, balloons and champagne. The grounds were desolate and b [... read more]rown and the gardens were dead. They ran of of drink mixes and alcohol daily. We were short towels or face cloths or hand towels every day. We were on a floor that a cricket team was on. 10-12 year old boys mostly unattended by there coaches. Up at 6 am running around, yelling from balcony to balcony before there breakfast. So we were unable to sleep in. They were back by 4pm when we would be trying to have an afternoon rest when they charged in . I asked reception if the 6 if us on that floor could be moved and she explained there were no vacancies unless we wanted to up grade. I realize we got a deal but did expect a little more than a 2 star hotel. I also had to call for bedside lamps in the room as the ceiling light was the only light in the room No lamps. The brought us 2 when I called. Over all the resort is in separate need of major make over. We made our own good time with our group of 12. Made the best of it. Sunwing also ran out of food o the way there. :(

Paradise !

Would highly recommend visiting this resort, the beaches are stunning, food was tasty, rooms are clean and beds are comfy, staff was welcoming and friendly, and the island of Grenada is a must see very picturesque!

Most Relaxing Vacation!

My husband and I loved our stay at this resort in Grenada. It was the most relaxing atmosphere we've ever experienced. The grounds are LOVELY, with beautiful gardens, a pond, and two beaches with breath-taking views. We especially loved the pavilions in the pool area, and the on-site snorkelling. The staff were unfailingly friendly and helpful. The food was good, although we would have loved even more Grenadian cuisine options. Our room was comfortable and clean. Overall, I would say this resort [... read more] is amazing value for money.

Fabulous location! Excellent service...

Just back from a wonderful stay at Starfish. We had a room overlooking the beach. You couldn't be closer to the ocean, the waves lapping soothingly all night. And yes we had our patio door open, no bugs at all. There is a constant warm breeze. The snorkling off the coral reef right in front of the hotel is wonderful. There is a happy sense of calm. The staff are excellent, the food very good. We were impressed by the relaxed but dignified islanders who were welcoming everywhere we went. Our g [... read more]uide on the island tour was very good at his job, super informed and efficient at getting us around the various sites, all very interesting. The hotel is changing hands and upgrading, which it will definitely benefit from. However it will probably attract a different clientele, and cost a lot more.Hopefully they will keep the same staff, they couldn't do much better. There were a few vendors on the beach, but they were not a nuisance at all. Grenada is a gem if you are looking for a peaceful relaxing holiday. We felt completely safe all the time.

A faded gem but a bargain in a beautiful country

The Starfish (Rex) was once a beautiful resort and still holds much of its charm. I would give it a solid 3 stars and at the price for Grenada I would highly recommend this resort. Food selection at the buffet was limited but we ate everything on our plates each meal. The BBQ night was the best. The stir fry and chow mien at the a la cart were as good as we'd get at home. The wine we had there was an Italian red from the Veneto, and quite good. The booze selection was poor, even the premium  [... read more]stuff which was at an additional cost was limited. The blender drinks were top quality, real juice not syrups. Two local beers, both quite good. The beach was very nice and the snorkeling right off the beach was very good. We did experience a few issues with our room (due to the age and need for renovations) which were quickly resolved. If you're not expecting 5 star service and amenities, this place may be right for you. We loved it. Get a taxi, rent a scooter or go on a tour and see the island.

Great Resort

loved the hotel & the people are amazing..Food was delicious..Room was a little dated but we knew that going in..Very clean.Only complaint I had were the stairs..Loved Grenada!! Hopefully will be back..

What a wonderful vacation

There were 5 of us that went and all of us had a great time , the only thing that we all said that the stairs were a bet much. The food was good and rooms were clean, the staff was excellent. We did have so much fun.

My favorite beach and room I have ever been too !!!

Our room was right in front of the ocean. We slept with no air conditioner to hear the ocean waves. We snorkeled everyday right from our room 30 feet away. The room was clean, I loved the furniture and colors. You can tell it wa an older building only from the hallways outside and stairs. I loved it for being small and not many people. The entertainment was fabulous also. The buffet food was incredible for a 3 star I would have not expected that. the restaurant wasn't as good as the buffe [... read more]t. The staff was very helpful and kind. Thank you so much Laura Mulvihill-Spry from trip central for making this experience happen.

Beautiful Resort!!

Surroundings are second to none! The Hotel rooms comfortable and clean. Service was good, food not to many options, but we did not bather about that. At least the ones provided were very tasty! Must confess the hotel itself needs some work to live up to its expectations...

Another fabulous stay!

We first visited Starfish Grenada in January 2014 (then known as The Rex by Grenadian Resorts) and had a great time. Our recent trip was another fabulous stay. The grounds and rooms are immaculate, the beach pristine, the staff friendly and accommodating, the food good to excellent (especially the homemade ice cream). It's not a 5 star, but it's an exceptional 3 star. If we can afford it after it is upgraded this year to a 5 star Royalton resort, we will definitely be back!
