About as nice as an Apartment Gets!

Woburn Villas apartments are much nicer than they have to be! They are absolutely HUGE, and have more amenities than most in its price range - perfect for long stays. The apts were very clean, well-preserved, and quite noise-proof. And EVERYTHING worked! the full size fridge and stove, the microwave, washing machine, the TV, DVD player -- EVERYTHING! There was internet but no wireless, so leave the iPad and bring the mini! The layout of the 2bdrm apt was perfect for two separate travel groups providing the maximum amount of privacy for both. The terrace was not wide, but was very long, and did provide a beautiful, relaxing view of the bay and nice, cool breezes. The bedrooms had optional aircon, but we found the floor fans were more than sufficient, and if not as convenient as ceiling fans, did have the added benefit of being portable, so could be moved between the bedrooms and the living/sitting area, which while leading to the wonderful terrace didn't have a screen which would allow one to leave the sliding doors open to take advantage of the breeze. Woburn is REMOTE. You will need a car or driver as there’s literally NOTHING within walking distance – even for those who don’t mind walking up steep hills. With a car, nothing was very far -- airport, "town" and Grand Anse can all be reached in less than 15 road-harrowing minutes. The apartments provided free parking -- although not for the novice driver, as the parking and the apts were down a several very steep inclines, and it can be trying to get out if the lot is fully occupied. On the bright side, these inclines pretty much guarantee that there will be no walk-bys or drive-bys. Yvonne was a wonderful and accommodating hostess, and would try to provide anything you requested. She lived nearby (up one of the steep inclines), so was always readily available for inquiries and mini-emergencies. If you desire to walk across the street to the beach, this is not the place for you. However, if you don't mind a short drive, then Woburn Villas provides a large, airy, spacious apartment in a beautiful, tranquil setting, with all the amenities of home - but the beauty and atmosphere of the Caribbean.

Vermieter-Kommentar: It was our pleasure having you and Denise stayed with us at Woburn Villas and hoped for you, it was a stress free holiday.
We are glad to hear that you find Woburn Villas airy and spacious and that it was much too nice to be a holiday accommodation, but we pride ourselves to make our guests happy and to make them feel that Woburn Vilas is their home.
We will in the near future install WiFi so when we have groups everyone can use their laptops and iPads. We are also getting quotes for patio door screens and hope to be able to install these very soon.
Woburn Villas is only 10 minutes drive to the city of St. George the capitl, the famous Grand Anse beach plus other beaches, bars and restaurants therefore we do not consider Woburn Villas to be REMOTE!! Up the road (3 minutes walk) from us there is a small grocery shop and another 5 minutes walk to the main road there are many, many more plus the Little Dipper Restaurant. We are sorry that you were not comfortable about the small slope to drive up and down and in your eyes find it "steep" if fact if you visit and know the Caribbean then maybe you would appreciate that Woburn Villas is in deed quite flat comparing. There are also steps to reach our house where in seconds your need can be attended to wheather to get an extra pillow of to turn on the oven etc.
We are not a beach front accommodation, even though it will only take you 10 minutes drive the most to get to one of the many beaches we have in Grenada.
If you do not want the hustle and bustle yet close to it, then Woburn Villas is the place for you.
We are here to welcome you - so don't hestiate call us now and book your holiday home.
