Dear Visitor from our BLOG

After 3 weeks in Grenada we finally arrived here – the place we shall call “home” for the next few years! We have left rainy cold England behind and find ourselves only 10 hours away on this beautiful and sunny Island of  Grenada at 28 ° C  with its warm ocean welcoming us!.
The Cabier Ocean Lodge with its sandy beach lined by palm trees and the coral reef on the other side, is really a small paradise on a cliff overlooking the ocean.
Our friends here at the small village of Crochu organised a „Cooking” on the beach at full moon for us and it was easy to feel welcome and accepted in our new home country.
The blue sky and ocean around our guesthouse with its continually changing colours offers a breathtaking view from every room.
The first few days we ventured out to discover the surrounding areas and we are planning further quests to discover the nicest places there are on the island to show  our guests later.

Our Cabier Ocean Lodge will be closed till the end of June for renovations and the construction of new buildings!

For those of you, who know Cabier Ocean Lodge already, you will be truly amazed at the astounding changes that have been taking place!
We are currently redecorating the restaurant and lounge area new – we are laying tiles in the inner courtyard and restaurant – we are installing a new barbeque area, where we shall be offering freshly barbequed fish and meat specialities.
 
We have a “stately lounge” with a panoramic 360 degree view of the ocean, which has not been used very much over the last few years. We are redesigning this room for our guests completely by installing an Internet Corner, TV and Games Facilities for their convenience.

The kitchen too is currently undergoing a complete “overhaul” – we shall be extending the kitchen area considerably to enable us to offer cooking workshops for our guests. My husband is a French Chef and brought his electric cooker all the way from France to our beautiful Island of Grenada! The proprietor of Cabier Ocean Lodge, Michael Boehm is giving us great freedom in expressing our own ideas! We shall be opening an intimate and exquisite restaurant with “A la Carte” Menu and Bar!

Once the restaurant has been refurbished, we shall then move on to redecorating all our guest bedrooms. We brought with us from Europe a whole container load of furniture and tools, which we shall use to refurbish our guest bedrooms and bring their facilities all up to date. All guest bedrooms will be equipped with new electronic safes and brand new light fittings. Furthermore WLAN-Net will be installed, which will provide easy Internet access from most guest rooms. Our guests will also have the opportunity to hire laptop computers from us.

Further modernisations are planned and new offers will be coming up. We shall keep you updated and wish you a summery time wherever you may be!

With kind regards

Iris and Bruno

Welcome to our BLOG

We are the new managers at CABIER OCEAN LODGE and we would like to introduce ourselves.

Cabier Family
 

My name is Iris. I was born in Germany and grew up in Austria. After studying hotel and restaurant management I then worked in restaurants in a number of foreign countries.    I met my French husband Bruno in London. He had studied hotel management and cooking and then worked in London in a 4 star Restaurant.
 From then on we worked together in England, Germany, Switzerland and France in well known hotels and restaurants. My husband also became a chef in a Michelin star restaurant in France.
 

We started our own business in France, a successful party catering service, which our oldest son Romain still runs. Our younger son Kevin is studying at a sport and health management academy in France.
  
We are really happy for the chance to fulfill our long held dream to manage a guesthouse and restaurant next to the ocean in such a special place as Cabier. We will endeavour to make our guests’ visits an unforgettable experience.
 We have lots of ideas to enhance Cabier Ocean Lodge, but yet still keep the relaxed style and ambience of it as Grenada’s hidden treasure. We will naturally keep you informed about our plans for the future. As a start, in May and June, we will be closing the guesthouse to renovate all the rooms and we will also improve the standard of the restaurant.
 

As a first step we want to offer in our restaurant a wider variety of cuisine. We will take advantage of all the natural ingredients and cooking traditions Grenada has to offer, French and Creole cuisine, lobster specialties, but we will also be inventive with our menus. We will also offer cooking master classes and classic cocktail workshops.
 Everyone needs to live and fulfill a dream. We are living ours and we will do all we can to help you to live yours, Whether it is just to relax far away from home on our deck overlooking the ocean with a rum punch, and watching the sun go down, after a day on the beach, or enjoying a special candlelit dinner with your partner, Cabier will give you the time and space to step out of this hectic world for a while and recharge your spirit and relax.
 

We will always be happy to welcome you at our special place in Grenada. Our job is to help you relax and wash away the cares of the world in beautiful surroundings accompanied with excellent food and a relaxing style of living.
  Come and join us, we look forward to seeing you soon.
 Bruno und Iris
