Firefly is a spacious, comfortably furnished home designed to enjoy inside out Caribbean living in lovely, unspoiled Grenada.  The outdoor terrace affords plenty of privacy, whether you are lazing in the sun, reading, watching the humming birds or fireflies, or just enjoying the wonderful views of the sea, bay and mountains. 

Guests at Firefly can relax surrounded by grounds landscaped with fruit trees, tropical flowering plants, herbs, bushes and other indigenous trees.  Guests are welcome to ask the gardener to pick seasonal fruit and vegetables from the garden.

The owners’ share a love of gourmet cooking so the spacious kitchen is well equipped. Guests provide their own meals. A welcome box can be arranged by separate negotiation.  Chem and Jamila call at the house Tuesday and Thursday at about 1 pm.  They sell local produce and fresh coconut water if you ask they will fill the jugs (to arrange for this, their number is in the book). 

Three quiet beaches within walking distance, Spray Bay, Old Harbour beach and Boule Bay. The magnificent La Sagesse beach with a good restaurant selling local fish and produce, is a 12 minute drive.  The famous 2 mile long Grand Anse Beach, and St Georges town are 20 minutes away where you will find more restaurants/bars, shops, supermarkets and banks.

Walking distance to 3 convenience stores, a fish shop, chemist, petrol station, bakery and various roadside stalls selling fresh local produce. Local bus at the end of the road. 

Comfortable, homely and well located, Firefly truly is the perfect place to enjoy an easy, relaxed holiday or use as a base from which to explore the unspoiled beauty of Grenada.  Private and romantic, Firefly is ideal for couples, honeymooners and families (not very small children). 

Please do not smoke in the house.
