Our stay was comfortable and enjoyable.
Pros:

The location, the beach and all the staff were excellent.

Cons:

The property and accommodations are somewhat dated. The toilet in our room needed to be replaced.
However the beds were comfortable.
The continental breakfast included with our room needs some more variety. Majority of the selection was bread with a limited fruit and yogurt selection.

Bien
Pros:

L’emplacement et la grandeur des chambres

Cons:

Pas rien en particulier mais, il y aurait besoins d’un petit coup de rafraîchissement des installations, la porte extérieur a un jour d’environ 2cm au bas de la porte ce qui a causé l’entrée de milles patte que j’ai trouvé dans mon lit à mon réveil même si c’est les Caraïbes cela devrait être corrigé, Merci.

Agréable
Pros:

Chambre spacieuse et propre, piscine à partager, proximité de la plage.

Cons:

chambre qui mérite un peu de rénovation, trop sombre, mal éclairée, pas de prise (chargeur etc) serviette de bain trop petite. Peu de chose dans les environs à faire à pied quelques restaurants dans "le village" qui n'est pas un village juste une place avec 5 ou 6 restaurants un tabac, un bar très moyen et un petit supermarché. Rues non éclairées pas d'activités nocturne tout ferme à 22H voir avant pour le peu de commerce. Comme certains clients l'ont indiqué le petit déjeuner est de mauvaise qualité et tous les jours c'est la même chose, pas de variété de confitures, viennoiseries industrielles fruits pas mures du tout pendant une semaine (dommage quand on est dans les Caraibes) thé de mauvaise qualité, si vous souaitez des oeufs il faudra payer 9 euros en supplément...
Pour avoir un transat il vous faudra réserver et vous ne pourrez pas choisir votre place car en 1ere ligne ils sont réservés aux clients externes qui les payent 30 euros comme c'est un beach club (qui est d'ailleurs fermé le lundi) cependant le personnel est très sympa. Les consommations sont un peu élevés 8 euros la bouteille d'eau à la plage, 3 euros à la réception. Plage très venteuse de novembre à mars impossible de nager.
