Special Place

The "Cote Sauvage" is one of the most amazing locations you will ever experience and this hotel is uniquely situated so that you can take advantage of this unspoiled coast. We stayed 5 nights in a room for two adults and one child, which turned out to be a more than adequate junior suite with privacy for everyone. Facilities were great with two pools (one outdoor saltwater and one indoor). We played tennis and booked horseback riding nearby and generally took advantage of everything the island had to offer. Definitely rent a car when you go here so you are not stuck on the hotel grounds. Staff was of course went out of their way to make us comfortable. Have the breakfast buffet and then venture out for lunch and dinner elsewhere.

Un hotel qui a perdu de sa superbe. Un hammam en panne et un jacuzzi à une température trop basse. Cet établissement mériterait un bon coup de rafraîchissement. Nous avions une suite junior, le flacon de savon de la salle de bain était vide. La prestation ne justifie en rien le niveau de prix

Bel hôtel dans un environnement exceptionnel . Accueil professionnel, souriant et efficace. Une réserve..le .manque total d'attention, de disponibilité, d'écoute des deux hôtesses à la réception de la " Thalassothérapie".

Très beau sejour

La localisation est parfaite, le personnel est très agréable et à l'écoute. La location de vélos sur place fonctionne très bien (si on réserve). La table est bonne. Seul bémol, le bar n'est pas à la hauteur de l'établissement.

Assez déçue par le confort qui n’est pas à la hauteur d’un relais château 4 étoiles. Immeubles vétustes et moquettes tachées. Aucune serviette à disposition au niveau de la thalasso et pas de presse dans l’hôtel. Aucune anticipation des besoins des clients (on doit demander constamment). Plus de produit douche dans la salle de bain à notre arrivée. Le sens du service est vraiment à revoir. Je suis habituée de ce genre d’établissement et là vraiment je trouve que ce n’est pas à la hauteur.
