Spread across Elmina and Accra, this hotel chain is more than just accommodation; it’s an experience that blends comfort and Ghanaian charm.
In a country where the hospitality scene is evolving rapidly, Coconut Grove stands out by delivering world-class service in a setting that feels uniquely local yet internationally appealing, per Accrahotelsgh.
Situated along the scenic coastline, the hotel offers a serene escape from the chaos of everyday life.
It’s no surprise that dignitaries, business executives, and well-travelled guests choose it as a home away from home.
The architecture, decor, and ambience all speak the same language: taste and precision.
Each room type has been thoughtfully crafted to meet diverse needs, ranging from extended family stays to solo retreats or romantic getaways.

Think direct ocean views, a queen-sized bed, a kitchenette, a dedicated living area, and all the subtle touches that make a stay memorable.
It’s not just a room—it’s an experience that matches the lifestyle of high-profile individuals, much like a luxury box at a football stadium where you’re not just watching the game, but soaking in the prestige that comes with it.
