The room was lovely, very comfortable bed, clean bathroom etc. Strange decision to put the kitchen on the balcony, as there is such a huge problem with mosquitoes it became uncomfortable to cook/eat outside, not to mention the hygiene with the flurry of cats that were always hanging around, climbing on tables etc. The facilities were lovely, staff were extremely helpful and friendly, the issue with no cover of any kind for our mobiles, not controlled by the hotel I know, but it was a bit of a pain. The location was great, so close to the town and the beach where we got to see all the set of Death in Paradise. If you like this programme you should visit between May-Oct to see them film it seems....

I would have loved more control over keeping mosquitoes out of the room. Phone coverage on site would have been great. A mosquito net perhaps at the edge of the balcony would have been ideal then we could have used the balcony kitchens with no fear of being eaten alive and in comfort...

The property is low-key but thoughtfully designed with everything you could need. Everything was well maintained, the staff was delightful, super friendly and always professional and available but never intrusive. The rooms were tastefully decorated with kitchens that functioned perfectly and all new bathroom fixtures.

Can’t think of anything. It might be nice if they supplied pool and beach towels.

The hotel area and apartments slope into the hillside, far enough away from the main road. When you arrive along the road to the hotel, huge palm trees and an enormous Kapok tree (I believe) line the road. After entering, there are two parking areas, I never had any problems finding a free spot. The hotel area has a lot of trees and plants, and especially near the reception you can often see hummingbirds. Staff was always welcoming and super helpful, I got some good advice for snorkeling at Petite Anse and also booked two excursions while I stayed in hotel, which I really enjoyed. I can really recommend the restaurant, I had dinner four times and was never disappointed. The Grand Anse beach is a truly beautiful and calm beach, large enough that it never felt crowded, and very good for swimming or sunbathing. It is about five minute walking time to the beach from the hotel area. There are also restaurants and a boutique (although, it was almost always closed when I visited the beach). Keep in mind that the restaurants close in the afternoon.

My room was rather dark, due to the filters on the window glass. I assume, these have been installed to avoid the room heating up too much, which I can understand, but the lamps in the room are not bright enough and only lit the room poorly (this is not the case for the bathroom, which has bright lighting).

The proximity to the beach and Deshaies. There was a useful small store at the nearby service station for basic essentials. Being able to prepare meals etc on the terrace - the kitchenette was well equipped. The outlook was pleasant and the grounds very attractive and well maintained. The staff were very pleasant & accommodating, rubbish was collected daily.

There was only one chair in the room - a second one would be useful, especially if weather didn’t permit sitting outside. The breakfast was quite expensive, so we catered for ourselves. The microwave was situated too high and therefore considered dangerous. There was no chest of drawers, which would be very useful, and only a small shelf beside the bed - a cabinet would be preferable.

Extremely helpful and friendly staff, and when we had to resolve some unexpected circumstances they were quick to assist with arranging taxis and communicating with professional services on our behalf. The appartment was perfect with a small plunge pool an, amazing view and having the self-catering facility allowed us to be flexible about eating out. Because we were at the top of the hill our appartment was very private. On site swimming pool was good. The hotel is located close to Deshaies and some wonderful beaches.

Access was by walking up a very steep hill. It was possible to drive up most of the way, but due to the steepness manœuvring the car felt initially difficult, although once I became familiar with the space it was easier.

Excellent location very close to Guadeloupe top beach. The rooms are airy and comfortable, ours was quite high up with a beautiful view over the gardens. Staff was helpful and very friendly

No warning about the restaurant being closed and no options for catering on location. We didn’t have a car and had to taxi to the closest village for food each time

Location: Easy walk to beach restaurants, and a 15 minute drive to wonderful snorkeling. The property and pool are well maintained. The staff is accommodating. Also, offering a good, full breakfast @ 7pm is a plus.

The heavy drape and heavy bedspread in the bed room.

Amazing place! Close to Grande Anse beach and easy to get to Deshaies. Very helpful staff, particularly related to figuring out things to do. Nice restaurant for the evening. Beautiful views and very nice rooms.

The restaurant is close to the main road which can be quite noisy. You don't hear it at the rooms though.

The apartment was comfortable, well equipped and the terrace was lovely. The air con was excellent! Efficient and quiet at night. Bed linen was fine. Very close to walk to the most beautiful beach Grande Anse.

No hang out areas and no real bar area so it is more like an apart-hotel than an hotel.

Very lovely property and super friendly staff. I speak French which of course was helpful, but several staff also spoke excellent English (helpful to my spouse and son who don't speak French). The room was very spacious, with an interesting layout (loft area), and a large porch with a sitting area, dining area and outdoor kitchen, which had a beautiful view. Easy to walk to Grande Anse beach, and a short drive to Deshaies.

Nothing was really deserving of a "frown face." The breakfast was only so-so - we preferred to cook our own and the beds were a bit too firm, but ok.
