Great small hotel in a top spot

Very enjoyable stay at this lovely hotel. Everything was very comfortable and convenient. The balcony from our apartment had a spectacular view of the Atlantic Ocean and the surfers beach. Nice cooking facilities although the kitchen could use a wooden cutting board.

The location of the hotel was excellent for the superb hiking on the caravelle peninsula and the small town of La Tartane. The nearby restaurant La Phare is a nice place for dinner and is within walking distance from the hotel.

This is a great spot on Martinique to spend several days

I stayed in here with my wife and kid. Great location in the middle of a natural park. An astonishing sea view. Very clean place and very helpful staff. The room is not very spacious but got all you need. The bed is not comfortable nor the pillows. The wifi is the slowest ever. If you do surf it s just the perfect location. But Overall i really enjoyed my disconnect from the city and work. I liked the long nights in the balconee hearing the waves and chatting with family. Really recommend it if you need to escape.

Disappointing view with no access to luggage

I understand the mixed reviews. The hotel is maybe satisfactory for some back pack travelers who might be in the area. It was substandard for our needs. We could not bring our heavy suitcases from the car because of the steps/paths to the room. So, we did not have access to our things. We also needed a safe and there was none in the room. The bed and pillows were horrible. The Sea View was obstructed and the experience was like camping. We checked out early. The Tartane area is very beautiful but restaurants were overwhelmed. The best part of this hotel was the nice young man who was first at the desk. Low water pressure.

Wonderful family run 'residence.'

Always a challenge to arrive at airport late evening and to drive onto Isle de la Caravelle natural reserve at night with few lights and to arrive after reception is closed. Security guard was there to welcome us, as was hotel staff at 7:30AM with a great breakfast - must reserve a day in advance. Great family spirit and teamwork!

Walking the Caravelle peninsula

We had a great week here at the end of the wet season. There are several well-signposted routes starting about 10 minutes walk from the hotel along the Caravelle peninsula. Hotel itself is fairly simple, but with basic self-catering amenities. We brought all our food with us, and didn't need a car. Very good swimming pool - deep throughout, so there were not people hanging about in it. Unlimited free tea and coffee at reception. Front desk staff very pleasant and helpful. We spoke French throughout, of course, but some of them know a bit of English. Not a place for lazing on the beach, but if you want an interesting, inexpensive and enjoyable time off the beaten track, it is ideal.

In room kitchen,bring groceries

booked this hotel through Expedia.
1 wk before the trip, I contacted the hotel to confirm, and they had never heard of us.
Fortunately, they had rooms available. I contacted Expedia, but was disappointed
In the lack of communications to make me comfortable in taking this trip.
There were questions or problems with my credit card number, hotel only spoke French.
Getting nowhere, I called the hotel directly, used google translate, gave card number. Not sure what Expedia really did for this reservation.
Rooms are nice, consistent with other reviews. Built into a hillside. Park at top, decend to lobby,further to rooms, further to the pool, or further yet to a code gate to a public lot for the surfers beach. Some rooms on lobby level, but lots of stairs, no elevator/ramp. Enter room through door to patio. Patio has roof overhead, with kitchen counter. Coffeemaker, microwave, fridge, sink, dishes,pans. Room basic, good AC, small tv, no outlets in bathroom. Shower only. uses European outlets. Don't leave any food (incl. bananas) on patio, birds eat it. Bring coffee, microwave popcorn, beer/wine. Nearby restaurant at top of hill, called Le Phare, has bar, maybe 4-5 min Walk. Superette Christie in town of Tartane at Vito gas station, is grocery, has beer/wine/rum, etc. 5 min drive. Closes 7 pm. Hotel has free coffee in lobby until desk closes at 7 pm. Breakfast Expensive, but we just made our own. Pool not heated, closes 10:30 pm-7am. Place feels safe, door locks weak.

Need a car!

It's a nice out of the way hotel and great if you're looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It's far away from pretty much everything. There is a beach near by but it's more of a surfing beach and it's very small. If you're going to stay here rent a car, it's really in the middle of no where and if you want to do anything at all you'll need a car or get a very expensive taxi. Buy food before hand for your stay. The rooms have a kitchenette so you can cook. There's only one restaurant in the area (which is actually really good) but it's not open every day and closes early sometimes so there were days when we went to bed hungry because there was no where in the area to eat and we didn't buy food to stock in the room. Hotel staff leave at 7pm so if you need anything after that good luck. I would suggest knowing some French to get by. Most people that we encountered knew very very little English and everything was written in French so it was hard to communicate . Our room was nice, just basic, our only complaint was that the shower curtain was very moldy so we would have to struggle in the shower to avoid having the curtain stick to us. If you're looking for a relaxing vacation and don't really want to leave the hotel this isn't a bad place to stay, the views are amazing, but if you want to be where things are happening and have access to restaurants and activities, this isn't the place for you.

Great location but room in big need of refreshing

A beautiful view with easy access to a great surfing beach. Only breakfast available but not an issue as there is a handy small kitchen on the terrace. Great to cook lobsters and fish bought at the local market! Also a nice small pool. Only negative: room and bathroom would benefit from fresh paint and improvement.

Picturesque spot in unspoiled part of the island.

We arrived after hours and our key was waiting for us at reception. The room was down some steep stairs, so pack lightly as you will have to carry your own bags. We were very happy with the room, having stayed in Martinique before, we knew what to expect. The room was a studio with one queen sized bed. The mattress was brand new, albeit quite firm, again we expected this. The balcony looked out over the ocean and had a small kitchen, a couple of chairs and a table. We loved sitting out there, watching the humming birds and listening to the ocean waves. The bathroom was very clean, the shower was large and had hot water and good water pressure. The water did run onto the floor a little but we were provided with an extra towel to mop with so no problem there. The TV was a new Samsung and mounted on the wall. The channels are all French of course!
There was a closet for our clothes and two bed side tables. No extra chairs. The AC worked well and there was also a ceiling fan. Plenty of lights for reading etc.
The pool was small, deep and very pleasant. The sun loungers had cushions. The sun disappears behind the building at about 3 pm.
The reception area is open all day until 7:30 pm. The staff were most friendly and helpful. You can order breakfast or just a couple of croissants to take to your room. The microwave in the kitchen is available during this time and free tea and coffee throughout the day.
Directions: drive to the end of the peninsula and turn left at Le Phare.

Great view and good service

enjoyed the place. Good service and helpful reception that speaks good English. Great restaurant - MomyNouNou - a five minute drive down the hill. More informal lunch places near the beach a short drive down the hill. Loved our stay and watching the surfers from our terrace. Breakfast is available for a cost but you have everything you need to self-supply for a pleasant breakfast on your own terrace. It's not luxurious but delivers everything you need to kick back and enjoy the area. Enjoyed our 4 days there very much.

Relaxing

Nice reception in airy and clean hotel. This side of the island is more for surfer since water is rough. But the feel of being relaxed and away from the most touristy side is amazing. Huge open air lobby gives a Caribbean breezy feel. I like this hotel. Room was small and toilet and bath is in the same place as there was no partition. I wasn't too fond of that. Ideally located close to the beach and a restaurant area (very rare for this part of Martinique as most places there is no restaurants). View is fantastic and they have a nice pool. The general feel is very caribbean sunshiney relaxed feel.

Friendly hotel in excellent location

My adult daughter and I arrived late at night but awoke to the sound of the crashing waves and singing birds. From the vantage point of our small balcony and outdoor kitchen we could see the ocean waves in the distance. This hotel is a long downhill walk to the beach and steep uphill back, not friendly for the handicapped or elderly. The pool is nice but again you must climb several flights of stairs to get there. Everyone speaks French so it helps to try, even a few words. It is a self-service hotel--no frills, no staff available at night. BUT we were happy with the price, the two beds in the room, the outside kitchen with large fridge, and the reception staff. Breakfast is continental with a full basket of fresh bread included for 10 Euros/person. It is close to Tartane, a delightful small beach town with quite a few choices for food.

Haven't explained the overcharge

Generally we enjoyed our stay despite two days of rain. I would have given a higher rating except for the fact that my credit card was charged 10 euros more than my receipt amount and my e-mail asking about this has not been answered after two days. Also we were pleased because staff offered to rent us bicycles - rare in Martinique - but then she disappeared for a day without answering her phone and without telling anyone where the keys to bike storage were. We thus missed our only chance to cycle because by the time the information was provided it was pouring. Aside from these annoyances - setting is lovely, rooms are nice but tiny with little storage space, location is near a truly great dinner restaurant (Mamy Nounou) and a lovely friendly local lunch restaurant (Carbet) as well as walking paths that it was too muddy to explore but which are said to be nice.

Par contre le confort de l'hôtel est très moyen. Pas à la hauteur d'un 3 étoiles ni du prix proposé. Le lit grince et la salle de bain est très succincte. Petit déjeuner correct.

Endroit simple pour visiter la presqu'île de la ca

Nous avions réservé une chambre pour 4 personnes , constituée d'une chambre avec un lit 2 places et une toute petite chambre avec 2 lits superposés et une cuisine d'appoint à l'extérieur sur une petite terrasse. La vue mer etait présente mais tous les appartements n'ont pas la même vue, privilegier ceux qui sont en hauteur vers l'accueil pour les plus belles vues. Plage des surfeurs à 5 min à pied, attention beaucoup de rochers pour entrer dans l'eau. Balade d'une heure et demi a pied en se garant a 5 min de l'hôtel avec découverte des mangroves et arret pique-nique sur la plage du trésor épargnée par les sargasses. Très sympa. Au final, hotel simple mais bien situé pour decouvrir la presqu'île de la caravelle. A recommander pour une courte durée, 2 nuits nous ont permis de visiter.
