The rooms were very clean. The staff was great helping with check an check out. Because it was low season, breakfast options were limited but that wasn't an issue. Jist FYI, parking is outside the front gate and they send someone to get you and your luggage for check in or check out. That was my only pet peeves bit it's more of a me thing. It worked well

An AMAZING hotel. We stayed in the beach bungalow. Perfect sea view, we could see and hear the waves from our bed with an unobstructed view.
The staff were incredible, polite and helpful, ensuring I had vegetarian options each day.
The beach was clean and tidy, as was the pool area. There were always plenty of sunbeds although I would have preferred more umbrellas.
We had live music twice during the week which was lovely. A total chilled vibe. I would definitely recommend staying there

Hotel was lovely, generally.
Staff very friendly and hardworking
Locality beautiful
Breakfast lovely
Evening buffet - food often luke warm

Negatives
Queues too long at beach bar - up to 30 minutes for a drink- desperately needs more staff as they were rushed off their feet.
Reception needs a map of the area- had no idea that we could walk to other beaches from hotel until last day. (we had not hired a car)
Not told we could do activities independently by reception. eg. We wanted to go whale watching - this is only available on a Sunday and were 'put off' doing it individually as it was 'so far away'. Turns out you can do in next town.
Hotel really quiet one night - turns out there was a band in the next hotel - no information about this
Toilet paper needs a hold in room bathrooms as sitting on the sink it gets splashed by taps - just a small thing!

Our beach bungalow was just perfect. Very private the only people walking by were other guests in the other bungalows. We had breakfast included always a lot of fresh choices. The same with dinner. We eat dinner 4 nights and the menu was always different. The only thing I might say negative was we weren’t told that you need to put one of your room keys in the card slot inside the room to get the electric to come on. Once figured out all was great.

I would have liked to have washcloths and hair conditioner in the room. Note that if you are planning activities, most of the attractions are a 1 hr 40 minute drive (I.e. La Soufriere, les chutes du Carbet). Highly recommend!

The beach and surrounding areas are stunning. Lots of shady spots on beach and never a problem to find loungers. The pool is on the smaller size but adequate. Also loungers are comfortable.
Resort is somewhat run down and pathways are poorly lighted at night and uneven flagstones.

Major concern was we booked a garden bungalow assuming it would be ground floor level. It wasn’t! You had to climb two sets of high concrete stairs which were uneven and quite dangerous plus walk along flagstone pathways. This should be outlined when booking as many people with any kind of mobility issues would not be able to access their bungalow

After a week, staff recognizes you and makes you feel special. Shout out to the bar staff: Daria, Djara, Darryl, Gunnar- for smiling and laughing even during the busy times; our favorite dinner server, Bianca, who is so kind and friendly; Alex, who had such knowledge of the area on our rum tour, and greeted us every time after. It was just the thing we needed to escape and really focus on living and get back to the basics.

Room condition was satisfactory but not pleasant to be greeted by a cockroach. This was followed by several cockroaches the next day. The reception response was that there were no other rooms available and they would send housekeeping the next morning. When housekeeping did arrive around midday she didn’t know anything about it. We were left with a can of insect repellent. In fairness we didn’t see any more but I didn’t feel relaxed in the room!
Somewhere to hang towels would have been helpful.

Nice resort. We were in between seasons, so there was little to do. Bar closed at 7, you eat dinner and basically go to bed. Fine if you’re old and tired, but not a place if you want to have drinks at night. We stayed in the cabanas. Super cute, right on the ocean. You fall asleep w the sound of waves. Staff were very nice. The comforters didn’t fit the bed, so they put two double bed comforters on top. Very odd. Thought it was a cultural thing, but I think they ordered the wrong size.

Relaxed resort in beautiful location

Excellent position in peaceful surroundings, right on the lovely beach with a large decked pool area. Good food in a very spacious dining area. We were in one of the huts in the garden which were just a short walk to the beach, beach bar, dining area and pool. Spacious, comfortable and very quiet. One slight negative: there are not enough parasols around the pool area.
There was a local protest group blocking road access to the hotel for the duration of the stay. Complaining of lack of jobs for locals (maybe because the hotel insists on English-speaking staff) and lack of local’s access to the beaches around the hotel.

Langley Fort Royal is set in a beautiful location with a idilic tropical beach. It’s recognisable as the location for many episodes of ‘death in paradise’ and fans will love it. The staff are pleasant and it is kept very clean. Whilst we had an enjoyable stay there, this did not feel like a luxury hotel.
The food whilst plentiful, was basic and expensive for what was provided. (Very simple buffets) There are no really comfortable sitting areas for the evening and our room in the large concrete hotel building ( number 321) had views ruined by a rusting yoga platform and metal fire escape. Room 322. 323 would have similar issues. We asked for the room to be changed for our 16 night stay but the hotel could not accommodate this. For me, this spoiled the experience.
If you do go here, the huts near the beach are a better choice.
Evening meals at 32 euros per person, felt expensive for what was provided but were better value than some of the restaurants in Deshaies which are very expensive.
I’m pleased we stayed here but wish we had stayed for a shorter period and then moved somewhere else. I’m not sure we would stay at this hotel again, although this part of Guadeloupe is beautiful and I would definitely want to stay in this area.

Langley resort has lovely views and a quiet private beach. The beach and walkways were kept clean. We could always get a chair at the beach or pool.

The breakfast buffet was adequate with an omelette bar, cereal, fruit, and toast/baguettes.

The room was large and bright with great views. The daily cleaning of the room however was poor as they came late in the day and just made the bed. Towels were not changed and floor was still dirty some days. We had a leak in the roof from the a/c. We reported it and it was not resolved.

The food and drinks at the beach bar were good and service was usually quick.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at Langley.

Good views but no kettle

The bedrooms have no kettle to make tea or coffee the wardrobe is too short to hang a dress and the post of the bed blocks the view of the TV.
By the pool there is only one parasol for 50 sunbeds hence no shade.
The restaurant does not offer a la carte dinner only a buffet. The beach bar does however offer pizza and sandwiches. The drinks menu at the beach bar shows large beers but you can’t purchase one because they only have small glasses. Two staff members at the beach bar were particularly helpful, Belonia and Tatina. When charging items to your room you have to sign a receipt that does not have the items listed or a price, very unusual.
The rooms in the main building are clean, well maintained and most have sea views. One side has balconies and the other has Juliet balconies. There is a nice sandy beach with very little shade but good for swimming, not so good for snorkelling.
If you want to see where Death in Paradise was filmed then this is a good place to stay and the hotel also runs tours on a Friday to the film locations.

The staff were fantastic. Especially Manon and Angelina at reception and the entire restaurant staff. The facilities and planned activities were fun and provided many options. The room was clean.

The biggest issue is that to get large amounts of luggage to or from your room a porter needs to come with a golf cart since the parking lot is about 300 m fron the reception desk. This can take some time and is critical to think about when checking out to catch a flight. Give yourself extra time. The resort should prioritize resources to check in and check out. Someone has to get out of the car to reach the intercom used to open the front gate. The intercom should be placed on the driver side and a number plate recognition system or rfid system used to avoid having to call the desk each time guests enter or leave the property.

Average hotel at a very nice area of the island.

Few comments:
1. At our arrival both elevator have been out of service. On request the staff supported us to bring our luggage to the 5th floor, but at check-out no support. By then elevators will be fixed is unknown as exciting once need to be replaced due to age.
2. Breakfast is quite poor, very limited variety, even the typical French food (Croissant & baguette) was crap. Here they could really improve.
3. During our stay they have had multiple big events at the hotel which took over beach side and pool…unfortunately staff didn’t inform us or any consideration of other customers at the hotel.
4. Staff in general was not very attentive…more reacting when asked but never thought in advance.

The only small things that could be improved:
1. Have real good coffee machines - your expresso is really bad
2. There is some unpleasant sewer odors outside the bungalow 16. It should be fixed - it is not plesant to sit outside.
3. Cleaning beach will be useful - there not a lot of cigarette butts and leaves and they can be remove with a modest effort

Langley Resort Fort Royal is a beautiful property with direct access to sand beaches. Our room (large room- sea view) was spacious and had a stunning sea view but did not have a balcony as only the rooms facing west have one. The property restaurant offers a fairly good breakfast and dinner buffet (lunch as well but we never had lunch there) and the beach bar offers a more limited menu (pizzas and panini) but a vast choice of cocktails. The multilingual staff were friendly but tried to be helpful. On a less positive side, our room (and the 4 storey building itself) would have greatly benefited from a fresh coat of paint and some repairs. It would have been nice to be provided with a kettle with coffee and tea as one has to walk out of the building and walk to the reception pavilion or beach bar to order a tea or coffee (it would also have been nice to find body lotion and a box of Kleenex in the room). Last but not least, the resort is located at about 6kms from the next town called Deshaies which you can reach by car, taxi or bus. Moreover, it is located 45 to 60 mns away from the airport and you will have to arrange your transfer to the hotel by emailing or calling a local taxi company (I emailed the hotel and they provided me the contact info). Best to rent a car if you want to visit the island and its stunning beaches or simply not have lunch or dinner at the resort every day !!

The location of the property is fantastic with two wonderful quiet beaches to walk and swim on. The sounds of the waves coming ashore \"sang\" us to sleep each night and greeted us in the morning.

The resort could have done a much better job on the buffets which were always the same and with little variety or choice. We had the breakfast buffet every day, and the dinner only for 4 nights - the others we went out to local restaurants which was wonderful.

Also, the grounds could have been enhanced with more gardens/trees/plants, and some of the hardscapes are getting old and worn needing some improvements.

Again, the location was great and allowed a higher ranking for the resort than otherwise.

First of all I should mention we stayed in a waterfront bungalow and purchased breakfasts only. That was good choice. Bungalows next to the seaside are very nice and cozy but the distinctive feature was stunning view from the bed when you get up in the morning or sit in front of.
There is also a hotel building well situated but nothing like waterfront bungalows. Also had heard some disappointing comments from other guests from the hotel building but haven’t experienced themselves.
Breakfasts were simple, buffet style and same for the whole week. Nevertheless, with sufficient choice for me and my wife. Launch a la carte, tasty with decent prices compared to other restaurants in the area. Diner buffet style, but can’t comment as never went for. Should mention there are someone restaurants at the neighbor beach 15 minutes waking through the forest. Nothing special but fine as alternatives. Prices are also comparable.
Stuff is very friendly and helpful. Speaks English unlike most of the local French only. Have good choice of activities in offer and everyone should be able to find something for himself.

The beach was beautiful probably the best part of this location. The bungalows were comfortable but the staff did not clean, they just replace towels and make bed, I even tipped them in hopes that my bed wouldn't have sand in it or they would clean the bathroom.. no luck. The food was HORRIBLE! I couldn't wait to come home and eat home cooked food. The buffet food is the worst I have ever had in all my travels so far. The people are not friendly except at the bar and if you want to eat that is your best bet for an OK meal of pizza or the kids burger meal. Shops in town are only open when the people feel like it and there are not many shops or restaurants near by. If you rent a vehicle and stay here be prepared to spend time searching for a parking spot, parking in the grass or a bush, the people at the gate interrogate you if you ask to go through. I had to drive up to get my sick mother and the man refused to open the gate for me telling me to park and walk, and going home to the airport they make you drag your bags all the way to the parking location. If there are no spots they might let you park in grass on the other side of the gate if you argue with them for 5 min first. I will NEVER stay here again. The wifi is terrible, and if you are an international traveler be prepared to not be able to charge anything! There are NO USB charging ports and the outlets do not allow an adapter to fit. The only good thing was the beach, beautiful ocean water, & losing lbs from starving.

Langley has a terrific wide beach with shallow water, safe for all...and a smaller beach by bungalows. It is a large facility, but has enough room that it never seems too overcrowded. Fix price dinner is buffet style. Lots of food available, but average quality. Numerous better restaurants, however, in Deshaies, just few miles away. Stayed in bungalow, so cannot comment on regular hotel rooms on property. Few Americans as guests, but English widely spoken by staff.

Beach front huts are what makes the holiday and hotel for us. There is a small stretch of good beach in front of the huts which is separated from the main beach and much less used. The restaurant food is improved from last year. We ate there most nights this year. Staff are attentive and friendly. Only downside was the salads served at the bar during the day. They were good last year but dire this year. Also, the long walk to the car park which is 200-300 hundred yards from the main hotel area.

Amazing location - could improve WiFi in Hotel

A fantastic location (signs on the road could be better to find the place!). The beach and beach bar are very well positioned with great wifi. Could do with another staff member on the bar though, generally there was only one. Disappointed that the restaurant only offered the buffet in the evening for a set price and there was only limited pizza and panini choices at the bar. When the sun is shining the hotel is perfect. When it’s not, as the bar and reception are separate from the accommodation it makes it very difficult to socialise. The WiFi in the hotel building is poor and having rain and a teenager with no WiFi in the room in the evening was a challenge. We ended up taking a mattress off the bed and putting it next to the door each evening, as that was the only way to get a signal in a small area.
Bar staff were very friendly and helpful, but French speaking guests (at least 90%) struggled as 2 out of the 3 staff that week did not speak French.
Bar prices were reasonable for hotel prices and the pizzas were very good.
Reception staff were lovely and very helpful and friendly.
The restaurant is used for breakfast and it did seem that the previous evenings staff did not clean or sweep the floors and food up so breakfast tables did seem unclean.
Beach and bar area was cleaned and raked every morning at 9am and was very clean.
Overall - very happy with our stay, just a shame the rooms are advertised as WiFi when they are not fully covered.

Fantastic and underrated hotel

If you booked thinking that this was a 3* hotel, you've been misled. It is an exceptional hotel that should be rated higher.
The location and facilities are superb, a private beach in a stunning location. The food is good, plentiful, and comparatively reasonable for the Caribbean. The location is good in itself but located on an island of 'breathtaking' beaches. Hire a car, explore and enjoy.
The hotel has two sides a conventional block and beachside apartments where we stayed. The rooms aren't overly large but comfortable, and with facilities close, you need them only for sleeping. The staff ( mainly Swedish) are multilingual and friendly, guests are mainly French. It is an ideal hotel to sample the French Caribbean.

Spectacular location and beautiful beach tho hotel seems a bit dated. Pool bar staff were helpful and food here was good. Ate in the restaurant one night and not impressed. Ordered a glass of red wine and the waitress took my glass presumably to go and fill it. After fifteen minutes watching people coming after me getting served I had to ask again. Finally got my wine about 20 minutes after sitting down. €30 a s bit steep for what was on offer. Breakfast buffet was better but not sure it’s too healthy having cockerels running over the tables.

Nice hotel and Excellent beach huts

We stayed in one of the beach huts which was excellent. right next to a small beach away from the main beach and bar area. Service was really good, breakfast was good. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely go back, especially to a beach hut.

On the debit side only a couple of small items but they didn't spoil the stay. Minor hiccup with room service on day one, but this was remedied immediately and afterwards was excellent. The biggest issue was lack of cushions for the wooden sun loungers outside each of the beach huts. Without cushions they are uncomfortable. When we asked for cushions we were told it \"was not allowed\". no other explanation was offered. Some of the beach huts did have cushions, and eventually umbrellas, which we were told must have been taken from the pool area without permission as this was \"not allowed\" either. As nothing was done about this I suspect that the situation may be remedied over time by future guests.

Idyllic location and friendly service

This resort is perfect for a relaxing beach vacation. Its location is secluded enough to be peaceful but also a short drive from Deshaies's many restaurants and town amenities (and the staff, all of whom speak English, are very helpful in making dinner reservations etc). The resort's main beach was never too crowded the week we were there, with plenty of beach loungers for all. Similarly, the beach bar had a lively crowd each evening but service was quick and friendly.
We stayed in a beach bungalow and highly recommend it. The view from our front door was stunning, and the private area with beach loungers right outside our room was extremely convenient. There is also a smaller beach area adjacent to the bungalows for easy ocean access. Bungalows 78 and higher have a hillside directly behind them (rather than a path) so the window behind the bed looks onto a wall of greenery and the drapes can be left open without privacy concerns; they are also closest to the smaller beach.
Overall this resort exceeded our expectations and made for a perfect vacation.

Great 3 night stay.

I stayed in the large ocean view room. The view was surreal! Staff was very friendly and spoke English. Room was clean. My only issue was the room / ac was not cold enough at night, and the twin bed had no sheets. Entertainment was fantastic at this resort. Breakfast was a buffet with many great options of food.

Needs to be renovated

Hotel is on beach however when we were there you could not swim due to swells. The room had a great view of the ocean. The room had ripped curtains and we saw 3 roaches in our room. Our phone did not work.

Aged hotel - needs an update.

Not great - decent location and hotel has lots of potential for future. Everything a little tired looking. Buffet was ok but not inspired to stay in. Better to seek a local restaurant in Deshaies - a great town with lots of character.

Mediocre

The main hotel building we stayed in needs major renovations. The AC was broken and the wall around the unit was full of black mildew. The room also smelled of mildew. There were roaches. We asked to change rooms. The staff was very accommodating. The next room we were in leaked water from the floor when it rained. It rained several times a day. The beach is pretty and the clientele mostly Swedes and French, were nice and mellow. No loud, drunken, partying.

Stunning location. Hotel is a bit tired and worn.

The week we stayed was very windy so no water activities were available.
Breakfast buffet was great but the dinner buffet was very disappointing. We tried to get a taxi to eat outside the resort but were told 3 nights running that none were available. Its definitely worth getting a car for the week.

Most amazing location

We stayed in the bungalows right on the beach. Room 78. Although the rooms were somewhat out of date, they were unique and the location was perfect. The northern end of the island is the place to be.

Excellent position right on the beach

Pleasant staff, lovely view from our room in the hotel, beds very comfortable and room clean. However we were expecting a 4star hotel and it really was 3 star. The towels were small, we expected a bath sheet. Furnishings showing signs of age and 2 out of 4 hooks for towels etc were broken. Very old fashioned tv (square screen). During our stay over a very busy weekend one of the two lifts broke down and the other lift door often didn't close properly. Buffet breakfast was adequate, but would have expected freshly cooked eggs, the scrambled eggs had a strange consistency. Evening buffet poor value for money, not much choice. There were mangoes dropping off the trees and left to rot. They could easily collect them and offer them free at reception or put them on the breakfast buffet
During our visit there was evening entertainment which was good.
You definately need a car as the hotel is a few kilometers out of Dehaies.

Scenic location, set on two wonderful beaches

Very scenic location, set on two beautiful beaches (though one not suitable for swimming due to strong currents). A further two even more fantastic beaches nearby- Plage La Perle and Grand Anse. Both breathtaking and can be reached on foot via paths through the rainforest.

Need a car to explore.

Staff friendly and helpful, speaking good English and French.

Facilities average with a hut for water sports, tennis court, games area and small gift shop.

Only one restaurant on site, with buffet dinners that get repetitive. The Creole Sunday Brunch is buffet style again, but recommended.

The hotel is both base camp and some times location for the tv series Death in Paradise, and you may spot the odd character walking the grounds!

Rooms often not made up until 3pm.

Could improve service offering by holding weekly management parties, and a Friday night barbecue by the large open space outside the restaurant would also liven things up.

Guests a good mix across all age groups, families and couples.
