"The room was spacious. The bathtub water was warm not hot. The bathroom had no ventilation and only a sliding door for privacy. The "king" bed was two small beds put together, and you could feel the bedframe poking you in the middle where the two beds met. The balcony was great. We found a fake glue-on eyelash on our blanket. After telling the hotel that we found it but didn't need a fresh cleaning, all they said was sorry. The tap water is not drinkable, and the hotel will only give a single water bottle at check-in, and then tell you to buy your own water from the local grocery store. Water was 6 euro per bottle at the restaurants. The food was good, but limited and very expensive. We visited the local plaza (5 minutes walk from the hotel) every day for all of our meals because the prices were half those of the hotel. The area is extremely isolated. It is great for the peaceful beach and only that. You will need a car to see the rest of the island, due to the large hills. We rented a car from the hotel and booked "a small car" in advance. They confirmed we would have a VW polo. When we arrived, they had booked it for someone else and replaced our booking with a large SUV. We refused to drive it on the small roads, and they did not offer to compensate for the situation this caused us. We had a small Hyundai for 1 day since that was all the time it was available for. We had initially booked a car for 4 days. "Angel" at reception was kind. The rest left no impression."

"The actual resort was beautiful but other than the pool and beach, there was nothing else to do. The food was okay. This is not a great travel destination for Americans, unless fluent in French. The American was flying inverted, which made us stay at the resort and not travel outside. Overall, pretty resort and that is the only positive I can provide."

"Beautiful landscaped property with nice balcony overlooking the property. Nice pool and gym and good location on the island."

"Nice mid-sized man he"

"We stayed here four nights before catching a sailing ship. While not luxurious, this hotel was perfect for our needs. The decor was dated but everything in the room was clean. Sheets clean. The mattress was a little firmer than I prefer but fine for short term. No hot water in the kitchen sink or bathroom sink but the hot water and water pressure in shower were wonderful. Daily maid service. Kitchenette had cups, plates, utensils. Bring your own coffee. We brought cone fillets but there were some in room. Fridge kept things cold. No I’ve machine on floor but when asked the clerk got me a small ice bucket full. The pool was clean and refreshing. Desk clerks responded quickly to any requests. It is in a neighborhood. The Marigot market is 0.8 miles away to walk. It took a couple of tries to find best, quickest route. From front door - turn right for a cute bakery open till 6p. From front door go left to a grocery store with plenty of snacks, drinks. Go left to walk to town and follow road to main thoroughfare, go left, then right at Rue de Republic. Then straight to waterfront, market and restaurants. We pulled our suitcases to waterfront to catch boat. It was bumpy but fine. You could take a taxi. Probably 10 euro. "

"The staff make this hotel. They are wonderful, polite, engaging and charming. Nothing is too much effort. The beach is stunning and empty and without any hawkers which makes it totally safe to leave your bag by your lounger whilst you swim etc. "
