Cover Story Cover Story The CFO adds “Upgrading the restaurant and cuisine has given us access to a new clientele – it’s a perfect place for business professionals to meet and enjoy meals, from breakfast to dinners, with non-stop service. Since the restaurant’s renovation, we have increased our business by 40%.” SECRET HARBOUR RESORT COTTAGES The resort’s most dramatic changes can be seen in the unveiling of 20 new luxury waterfront cottages overlooking Mt. Hartman Bay. The refurbishment of these former rental units began in 2017. With an eye for style and quality, the owners elevated the original structures with elegant detail and well thought out modern interiors. Each deluxe cottage holds two one-bedroom units, ideal for family stays. All boast sea- facing balconies with private entrance, plush king-size beds, fully-equipped kitchens, and complimentary Wi-Fi. Oversized verandas extend the outdoor space and the spectacular views of the bay and marina. “ With an eye for style and quality, the owners elevated the original structures with elegant detail “ party nights for Grenada Sailing Week: The “Pirate Party”, a Seahawk Paints-sponsored night, the “Mount Gay Rum” sponsored night, and the events grand finale “Prize Giving Ceremony”.The parties are always lively, fully catered, well attended and a great time for all! A gorgeous stone wall runs the length of each spacious unit. Much of the original charm and ambiance - circular windows and stone settees facing the sea -- remain. The two largest cottages interconnect to create a two-bedroom suite, including one with its own outdoor private Jacuzzi. THE MANOR HOUSE Stretching high above the gorgeous hillside, the affectionately named Manor House isn’t a house, per se, but a grand events venue that looks like a medieval Hollywood castle. The entire manor was in a rough state after “Ivan” hit, but the owners restored it while saving the integrity of the design. Upgrades in the reception area, two large dining areas and a large new catering kitchen are now completed, allowing the Manor House to easily serve fine dining menus and full bar for up to 800 people. Fully staffed rentals include weddings, cocktail parties, and party nights for regattas. Parties here are epic. When it’s not being rented for a special occasion, guests can take a yoga class on the long-tiled verandah with the sea breezes blowing. A swimming pool and private beach nearby make it a well- rounded resort property.
