Calabash Cove is NOT for Families

Yes it's true we don't take children at any time of the year, so if you are looking for a family vacation in the Caribbean, cross us off your list.


It's not because we don't like kids, it is because the majority of our guests over the years have said they prefer a kid free zone. It creates an atmosphere of calm and the ability to rest and relax properly. Difficult to achieve with children running and jumping and shrieking by the pool.


We find this policy serves us well and as we are a 26 roomed boutique resort, for us and our guests it's perfect.

If you want endless choices of restaurants don't book us.

By saying already we are a small boutique resort, I guess it's obvious that we don't have those things, however you'd be surprised how many people miss that and then are dissappointed with what we have. Our Windsong Restaurant and our Poolside lunch venue, have extensive menus serving superb food. We are also noted for our varied Vegan menu.

Are you really OK paying all kinds of supplements over and above your All-Inclusive Rate?

If you are then fine but we don't do that. We don't charge extra for room service and there are zero supplements on our menus. If Lobster is in season then it's included.


We give you a full wet bar in your room, not just a few beers, cokes and a bottle of wine. You get a range of Spirits and Mixers, wines, beers and soft drinks.


We call it the "UNCONDITIONAL ALL-INCLUSIVE"

Are you wondering where the disco/nightclub is? Don't waste time looking; we don't have one.

Calabash Cove guests range in age on average from mid thirties to seventies, but they all have one thing in common. They come here to rest becasue many have stressful jobs and circumstances. They want to catch up on some reading, get a massage or a facial and take dinner looking out over a moonlit seascape.


So when looking for extensive night life, try IBIZA!!

Want a busy beach with Jet Skis for Rent?

Not here I'm afraid. Our beach is a pristine, relatively small beach and never crowded. It goes with the territory by being peaceful and without Jet Skis!

The name Rasta pasta comes from the idea of this pasta dish being vegetarians’ choice and from the mixed colour of the components used in the dish. Chef’s preferences are short cut pasta like fusilli, penne and rigatoni, long cuts like fettuccine and linguine can also be used depending on your style.
