Bel Hotel à cachet Historique

Séjour très agréable. Super bel Hôtel bien rénové et plage privée très tranquille. Localisation excellente, près de tout. Nous sommes arrivés très tôt, notre chambre n'était pas prête, mais ils ont pu garder nos baggages dans un rangement sécurisé. Personnel très gentil et serviable.

Great hotel in a great location!

The hotel was very nice and the team were welcoming from start to finish. The whole property was very clean and our room was immaculate. We did have a problem with our shower which could not be fixed whilst we were in our room, but D did everything he could to help us and did so with a smile.

So glad I picked this!

Absolutely loved my stay! This charming hotel is super central and felt totally safe as a solo woman traveler. The beach is stunning—with plenty of chairs, helpful staff, and no need to trek through a giant resort. My “garden view” room even had ocean views, and I loved watching the cruise ships go by. The Caribbean chicken wrap? So good. Bonus points for live music at the hotel bar, and having McDonald’s across the street and Junkanoo Beach just a short walk away (though the hotel’s beach is way better). You even get access to Margaritaville as a partner property! Perfect spot for a relaxing, no-fuss getaway.

4/10 Fair

No thanks

Musty rooms, Bathrooms had black mould amongst the grout in the bathroom. Tub was brown. Very poor housekeeping. On some days none at all and limited use even when they came Staff service is terrible- unfriendly and reluctant to help. Check in delayed by 2 hours. Complimentary drink offerred but bar staff were reluctant to make same and refused to bring to our table. At the coffee shop, the lady cleaned her machine for 5min while I waited to but a pre made salad that had started to go off anyway. Pool and beach service non existent- guys stood around speaking to each other instead of helping set up umbrellas etc. Bar staff at the pool spoke rudely and open about other guests. In short-

Wouldn’t recommend

Never experienced service so poor - staff are quite lazy and rude and generally don’t seem motivated. Few exceptions, but mostly consistent across the whole hotel. There’s also a bit of a culture to rip you off - so you need to monitor all charges etc.
