Tamarind House is located on the most South West end of the Island of Grenada, on Point Salines.
Entering the Tamarind gates, and winding up the driveway lined with colorful bougainvillea, tall palms and fruit trees, you are transported into the serene peace that is Caribbean life. Windward breezes carry the sweet sound of wind-chimes and the tropical fragrance of the ocean, cooling you as you enter the spacious and secluded Spanish-style home through arched doors into a walled open-air courtyard. You are at once struck by the breathtaking views of the glistening turquoise waters of Grenada -- a vista of the Caribbean Sea and from afar the bustling island capital of St. Georges across the bay.
