A few days ago they called us in Cabier asking if we are willing to take care for a 3 weeks old Baby Monkey – which Mother was killed by an accident in the Rain Forest.
So we decided to invite her as a new member of our Cabier Family – and our guests like her very much.
Come and meet Judy in our Cabier Ocean Lodge.

Our Cabier Ocean Lodge rents to our guests now also 1 new Villa and 2 Studios from Mr.and Mrs.Hamilton.
Nick and Penny Hamilton first came to Cabier Ocean Lodge in January 2008, and fell in love with Cabier so much that they decided if they were going to build a house anywhere in the world it would be at Cabier, on the promontory just behind the hotel.Two years later that dream has turned into reality with Two Bays Villa and Studios, which has been built in conjunction with Cabier Ocean Lodge to widen the range of their top end accommodation.
Cabier Ocean Lodge is delighted to offer Two Bays Villa and Studios to its guests from 24th January, with special introductory prices up to 21st December 2010.
Please link to the Villa information page and Photo gallery to see pictures of Two Bays.
Two Bays Villa and Studios are in a spectacular position with a backdrop of the interior hills and rainforest. The view from Two Bays is to Cabier beach on the left, Crochu bay and beach to the right, and ahead of you there is a view over the offshore reef and out to sea.
Two Bays has been furnished in a way that is elegantly simple, but caters for all holiday needs including those who may wish to self cater as they have fully equipped kitchens with stoves, microwaves, fridge freezers and all the appliances you will need, right down to a garlic crusher and corkscrew. Two Bays has been designed to maximise living space, removing the boundaries between indoor and outdoors. Sustainable hardwood has been used for doors, windows and furniture. There is no glass and all the windows and veranda doors have moving and lockable wooden louvers. All the rooms have folding doors opening 9 feet wide onto the large shaded verandas to take advantage of the view and sea breezes that are a feature of Cabier. All verandas have a swing seat and table and chairs.Two Bays has great flexibility for groups of friends and family, as whilst the large double and twin bedded studios and the villa are independent, each sleeping two people, the villa can be linked through double doors to each studio for a combination of 4 or 6 people. The twin bedded studio connects internally making it ideal for families. These doors are locked if separate guests are occupying the accommodation, and they also ensure privacy even when sharing with friends and family. Each of the three units has its own front door and the separate verandas do not overlook each other.
All the rooms at Two Bays Villa and Studios have two ceiling fans. Two Bays has been designed to make air conditioning unnecessary, but air conditioning is available in the bedrooms if needed (with a small supplement), on the very few occasions when nature is not doing its job. There are mosquito nets for the beds but, with the breeze and the ceiling fans, there is little trouble from insects.
Two Bays Villa and Studios are connected to the hotel by internal telephone and have WiFi access. The hotel reception, restaurant and bar are about 100 yards away as is Cabier beach.

We hope to see you soon in Cabier!

After our first 6 month we have already integrated well and were adopted by the natives very well in our new home country Grenada.
To celebrate our completed renovations, we have invited more than 200 native guests from Grenada to a cocktail party on September 25th,
(more photos at http://picasaweb.google.com/cabieroceanlodge/)
and we also have invited to a “Cooking” on the occasion of the opening of our new Beach bar on the beach in October.
The Grenadian national dish “Oil down” prepared directly at the open campfire on the beach and we then usually barbeque fish and poultry, too.
(more photos http://picasaweb.google.com/cabieroceanlodge/)
Often we are lucky when our Rasta man Jaguar brings fresh Lobsters from our reefs for our guests.
We want also to offer our guests this romantic experience - it is particularly impressive at full moon when thousands little spot lights glitter on the sea .
We have 2 new members of the family of our Cabier family - our pups Bella and Rocky - meanwhile, too.
The most beautiful time starts with summery temperatures in Grenada now.
Escape from the cold winter and tank sun with us in Grenada.
We will spoil you.

Since 25.th of July we have renovated our Cabier Ocean Lodge with its new Restaurant!
Instead of 8 weeks we have renovated all houses and rooms 11 weeks - and we even have fixed the road to Cabier, have built new drainages and replaced and increased all water- and electric pipes to our guesthouse.
We refurnished, tiled and painted the Restaurant and Bar – and have built a separate barbeque kitchen. We extended our WLAN now – so you can surf in Internet from nearly all guestrooms and public areas and with our new installed WEB-Cam you can watch from our homepage how the beach looks at this moment. We show a new Neach-Cam photo all few minutes between 6 a.m. and 6.30 p.m.
(see: http://www.cabier-vision.com/webcam/cabierbeach.jpg)
.
We are offering our guests French and Creole meals and fish specialties.
In our new styled restaurant beside the normal menu also a la carte meals and our new styled Bar Iris serves Cocktail-and Coffee-Specialties.
We are searching a new name for our restaurant and bar - like “Cabier-……-Restaurant and Bar”.
We invite you to mail us your recommendation. If the new name we are using comes from your recommandation - we will invite you for an excellent dinner in our new Restaurant.
On our homepage – under item Information – Restaurant – you can see or print the actual a la carte menu.
Here you can see more Photos from the renovated guesthouse and restaurant:http://picasaweb.google.com/cabieroceanlodge/

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!
At the moment we are very busily renovating the whole guesthouse for the new opening at the beginning of July.
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

We are the new managers at CABIER OCEAN LODGE and we would like to introduce ourselves.
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
BEST NEWS FOR GRENADA´S TOURSIM 2009: DAILY, NON STOP, DIRECT FLIGHTS MIAMI- GRENADA WITH AMERICAN AIRLINES.More info: www.aa.com
14.May 2008 - We want to inform all our guests that our friend and fisherman Blackman died after an operation. He had a pain in his stomach for a long time and a operation 10 years ago. He painted nearly all the walls in Cabier in the last years. He brought us fresh fish directly to the lodge and was always in a good mood. A lot of our guests enjoyed a boat trip with him.
Two weeks before his sister (= Florence´s mother) died. For Florence, our housekeeper´s family it is a very hard time now. Our guests supported her with a BBQ at her shop that she can make more money, because a funeral in Grenada is a big event and very expensive.
Accept our sympathy - Cabier Ocean Lodge and friends
