Nine units, a stone grotto pool that glows blue after dark, and a few blocks of quiet between you and Charlotte Harbor.
A few blocks off the Peace River, The Grotto is a small, self-contained resort built for people who want a real destination, not just a room. Each of the nine units has its own name and its own character, wrapped around shared spaces you won't find anywhere else on the harbor — a stone cave pool, an open-air lounge, a stage that's seen more than one wedding toast.
By day it's a sun-warmed courtyard. By night, the cave pool lights up blue and the whole property shifts into something else entirely.
The Grotto's signature feature is a hand-built stone cave pool — a swim-up grotto that glows deep blue after sunset under LED night lighting. It's the reason for the name, and it's usually the reason guests stay an extra night.
