Great location. We really enjoyed.

I liked the facilities, it was right on the beach so very convenient. There is a supermarket right next to the hotel, and the kitchen has all equipment needed to cook your own food. I did not like, however, that I needed to clean and even mop (!!) the room before leaving. This is a hotel, and if you need to charge more for cleaning, please do so instead of asking people on vacation to do it for you.

The room had a decent shower, ok bed and kitchenette. But small balcony just overlooked other cabins, no hob and MDF units falling apart. Sewage pipes from an upstairs room ran through the room, not insulated, so hope no-one flushes in the night. The girls in reception were helpful.

The hotel was nice. It is made up of little cabins, each with a small kitchen area that has microwave, mini fridge, sink, and cookware and dinner ware, a TV with French television, and a separate bathroom. The bathroom was nice, and warm water was always there. The bed was absolutely atrocious for comfort. The room was a little dark because it had shutters on the windows that you could either open and let light in and mosquitoes, or keep the bugs out along with the fresh air and sunlight. It did make the room feel a little oppressive. The staff was wonderful! Nicest people in the world. I had a problem with my car and they did all the calling for me to get it taken care of and were so gracious about it and anxious to help me. There is also a Carrefour market right next to reception that is open until 7 or 8, but the people are so rude I opted to not have anything, than go in after the last time. There are two souvenir shops, but I never patronized either. There is a beach so close you can hear the waves at night and there are several restaurants on the beach and at least one dive shop and one water sports place. There were obvious tours leaving from the dock at the beach and the views at and around are breathtaking. You could probably have a vacation without ever leaving the area. Mostly middle class French tourists and English is not spoken, but with a smile and an apologetic shrug they will usually try. All and all I would say it was a good choice.

Overall the experience was good. You must speak some French or it will be a challenging trip. The restaurants got our meal orders wrong on a few occasions and I was traveling with someone who is fluent in French and used the 'language barrier" excuse.

Well,I arrived at night,so I couldn't see much.I was in a studio,in a two story building.Around me were bungalows,it was rustic.The problem for me,was the noisy crickets or froggies all night,each night.I guess it's the country! Also,you can hear people talking,right near you from other rooms, or bungalows. The location was good,right on a pretty, neat little beach. The boat for fort de France ,the capital was right there,very convenient...There were restaurants right on the premises. Unfortunately, my camera was lost or stolen...Not at courbaril...The staff were helpful,and kind .The water at the beach was warm and inviting,and flying fish were jumping. It was clean in the room,but no daily housekeeping.They did change the towels and sheets every four days.Good deal for the money...

Well it was a pleasant and restful stay at the hotel. We chose this one in particular to have a comfortable stay near the beach. Indeed, the place had the requirements needed for one to truly enjoy a nice stay. Everything is at hands reach. You have a supermarket, numerous creole restaurants, and also an ice cream place. Their is ferry that can take you back in forth from the location to FDF the center of the island. My experience was marked particularly by Patrick, he works at the front desk, he is truly the epitome of professionalism. He has a remarkable sense of humor without neglecting the importance of taking care of the hotel clients. It was a refreshing weekend by the beach.

It was terrible. Starting with the positive: the staff was friendly and the hotel is literally 30 second walk from the beach. That's it. The negatives are plenty: The rooms are absolutely tiny and uncomfortable. I took one of the bungalows and it was minuscule. The other rooms are even smaller. The furniture is composed of the bare minimum and is very aged. The rooms are very dark so you have to put your towels and swimming suits outside which makes the whole place look like a shanty town. It is very poorly isolated. You can hear what the neighbours do all the time. In addition, you don't get much air. The whole place is built like a council estate. No air streams in or out. The place is very near a stagnant stream with lots of wild trees. When you first look at it, it seems quaint and then come the horrors: mosquitoes galore. And we are talking about relentless, merciless monsters. That would all be fine if you could live comfortably inside the accommodations but you can't. Best of all, the accommodations don't have windows, they only have poor shutters that have gaps to let the little monsters through. This was like Pitch Black the movie: stifling during the day with an uncomfortable and bare bones accommodation and at night, the monsters come out and you have to live in the dark covered with repellent spray that doesn't keep the surnatural monsters at bay. After day 4, I booked another hotel and left this horror behind. Didn't even ask for a refund.

Very nice staff. Right on the beach. Walking distance to 5 restaurants. Boat shuttle to Fort de France and back every hour. Dolphin viewing/turtle snorkling boat next door and water ski/raft rental next door.

We stayed in a bungalow that gave us lots of freedom to walk directly onto the beach, shop at the handy store and walk to several different spots to eat out. We could be self-sufficient for breakfast (with warm bread and croissants each morning), lunch, etc., and yet easily get a drink or a good meal anytime we wanted. Getting the ferry into Fort de France was easy, but would recommend a car for getting around as this perfect vacation spot is a little off the beaten path (thank goodness!).

WiFi was essentially non-existent. They say they change linens every 4 days but we were there for 7 days and they did not change it once. The futon was broken so it was very uncomfortable. One of the four kitchen burners was not working. Needs better signage for the residence, especially reception desk -- it was difficult to find since we landed after dark. The gap between the front door and the ground was very big, making it easy for bugs to crawl in. The bathroom's shower area was too small, and since there is no clear separation between the shower and the rest of the bathroom, it was easy to get the whole bathroom wet and slippery. Easy beach access with a few places to eat. There is a store a few doors down where you can get some groceries if you don't feel like going to a market. OK for what we paid, but would've paid a bit more to get a bit better.

Loved that this local hotel was convenient in so many ways! The beach is just outsude the gate. There's a mini market close by fot fresh fruit & snacks. There's a choice of at least 6 resturants. I sampled 5 of them! The staff was helpful & courteous. Plus access to the ferry & water sports right out back. What more could you ask for??

The room was adequate for what I needed - which was a clean bathroom and a clean bed. The only thing that I found a little weird was that I had to clean the room myself before leaving.

Clean hotel, nice sea view, good neighborhood
