Coyaba Beach Resort vs Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort – At a Glance

Category Coyaba Beach Resort Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort
Overall Vibe Family-friendly, low-rise beach resort set in tropical gardens on Grand Anse Beach, with a calm, mature, relaxation-focused feel. Waterfront marina resort with a quieter, more self-contained atmosphere, better suited to travelers who like a nautical setting and extra independence.
Location Directly on Grand Anse Beach in southwest Grenada, a short drive from the airport and close to St. George’s. Set around a marina waterfront rather than directly on Grand Anse, appealing to guests who prefer a tucked-away coastal base.
Rooms & Suites 80 rooms in low-rise two-storey buildings across garden grounds, with ocean-view rooms sold with a king bed only. More marina-resort in style, better for travelers who want a stay that feels less like a conventional hotel room and more independent.
Dining Two on-site restaurants plus three bars/lounges, with bed & breakfast, half board, full board, and all-inclusive plans available. Better for travelers who are comfortable with a less all-in-one dining setup and want the flexibility of a waterfront resort base.
Pools & Beach Direct access to Grand Anse Beach, one outdoor pool with swim-up bar, and complimentary non-motorized water sports. Waterfront marina setting rather than the same broad Grand Anse beachfront experience, with the appeal centred on the marina atmosphere.
Kids & Family All-ages and listed as family-friendly, with babysitting available for a surcharge, though no dedicated kids’ club is noted. Best approached as a quieter waterfront option for independent families or couples who do not need heavy resort programming.
Price & Value Best value if you will use the beach location, included activities, restaurants, bars, pool, fitness centre, and optional meal plans. Best value if a marina setting and a more independent stay matter more than a full-service Grand Anse resort experience.

Rooms & Suites: Low-Rise Beach Resort vs Marina-Style Stay

Coyaba Beach Resort – Room Style

Rooms at Coyaba Beach Resort are spread through low-rise two-storey buildings in garden grounds, giving the resort a classic Caribbean beach-hotel feel rather than a large high-rise atmosphere.

  • 80 rooms arranged across garden-set, two-storey buildings
  • Ocean-view rooms are sold with one king-size bed only
  • Free WiFi is available in guest rooms and public areas

Coyaba is the better pick if you want a traditional resort room base right on Grand Anse Beach, with the pool, bars, restaurants, and beach close at hand.

Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort – Room Style

Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort is better framed as a marina-style waterfront stay, appealing to travelers who want a quieter, less conventional resort setting than a beachfront hotel strip.

  • Waterfront setting built around the marina atmosphere
  • Better for guests who like a more independent style of stay
  • Best for travelers who do not need a full Grand Anse beach-resort layout

If you want your accommodation experience to feel more tucked-away and nautical, Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort has the edge over a classic beach-hotel setup.

Dining & Drinks: Resort Meal Plans vs Flexible Waterfront Base

Coyaba Beach Resort – Restaurants & Bars

Dining at Coyaba Beach Resort is more structured and resort-like, with two restaurants, several bars, and the option to book different meal plans rather than relying on room-only flexibility.

Expect:

  • Arawakabana for international and Grenadian cuisine
  • Carbet for casual open-air poolside dining
  • Beach, lounge, and swim-up pool bars for easy resort drinks

Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort – Restaurants & Bars

Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort is better suited to travelers who prefer a more flexible dining rhythm and do not need the same traditional resort meal-plan structure.

  • Waterfront atmosphere rather than a large resort dining circuit
  • Better for guests who like to keep plans loose
  • Ideal if dining independence matters more than multiple on-site resort venues

If having defined resort restaurants, bars, and bookable meal plans matters most, Coyaba Beach Resort is the safer choice; if flexibility is the appeal, Le Phare Bleu may suit you better.

Pools & Beach: Grand Anse Sand vs Marina Waterfront

Coyaba Beach Resort – Pool & Beach Scene

Coyaba Beach Resort’s biggest advantage is its direct position on Grand Anse Beach, with calm white sand just steps from the gardens and non-motorized water sports available.

  • One outdoor swimming pool with a swim-up bar
  • Direct Grand Anse Beach setting with calm water and soft sand
  • Complimentary kayaks, Hobie Cats, and snorkeling gear available daily

Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort – Pool & Beach Scene

Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort offers a different kind of waterfront experience, centred more on marina scenery and a quieter coastal atmosphere than a broad resort beach.

  • Stronger for travelers drawn to a marina setting
  • Less about a classic Grand Anse beach day routine
  • Better for guests who want a tucked-away waterfront base

If the beach is the heart of your trip, Coyaba Beach Resort wins clearly; if a marina backdrop feels more appealing, Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort is the better match.

Kids & Family: All-Ages Beach Resort vs Quiet Independent Stay

Coyaba Beach Resort – Family Programming

Coyaba Beach Resort is an all-ages, family-friendly hotel, though its atmosphere is often described as calm and mature rather than heavily programmed for children.

  • Babysitting or in-room childcare is available for a surcharge
  • No dedicated kids’ club is noted in the available resort details
  • Best for families who want beach time, space, and a relaxed pace

Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort – Family Programming

Le Phare Bleu Marina Resort is a better fit for travelers who are comfortable with a quieter, more independent waterfront stay instead of a resort built around organized activities.

  • Better for self-directed family days
  • Appealing for couples and families who like a low-key marina setting
  • Less suited to travelers who want extensive children’s programming

If you want an all-ages resort with beach access and more on-site services, choose Coyaba; if your group is happy with a quieter, independent rhythm, Le Phare Bleu can work well.
