Espace Sud de la Martinique Vacation Packages

Quiet, a bit dated. The beach was closed off from the hotel because it was "broken", so we were told. But you could get to it by walking through the town a ways. There was a great pâtisserie across the street, and a small grocery store was next door, both very convenient. There was a small kitchenette on the balcony of our room which was nice to keep food cold and heat stuff up in the microwave. Staff was great, tho some did not speak English, thank goodness for Google Translate. Pool was nice although too cold for me to go into in January. Wasn't a whole lot to do in town, and really for that reason alone, I probably would not return to Diamant.

The hotel is very well maintained and the staff are really helpful and friendly, but the location is dreadful. It has wonderful views and nice grounds but you have to drive a number of miles uphill on completely unpaved, rocky, muddy roads with enormous potholes and a real risk of grounding your rental car. I wouldn't do this again without a 4x4 and I certainly wouldn't attempt the drive in the dark. If you come in from the Francois direction you will find yourself trying to cross culverts that will certainly ground your car. From the Robert side it is a little easier, but still not recommended. If it were just the hotel, I would recommend it without hesitation, but I would never return to this hotel until they do something about the access roads.

This hotel has an excellent location, with a private beach, right on Point du Bout, within very short walking distance to the marine and the set of shops and restaurants, as well as a few beautiful beaches (and a little longer walk to one of the few casinos on the island, if one is interested in that). It has kayaks, jet skis and windsurfing boards to load - but the weather when we were there prohibited use of them. It has a windsurfing school - which was fully booked when we were there (they gave the lessons at a different beach due to weather). It has a spa, which we did not use. It also has tours and boat trips (in French), which did not use since they were fully booked when we arrived. Therefore, it is important to plan ahead. However, I don't know why this hotel is rated as three stars by the local government. It lacks basic amenities such as a mini-fridge or a restaurant that allows one to order food - the restaurant there is only buffet for all meals. There is no ice machine - one has to ask the staff at the bar or restaurant for that. There is no convenience store in the hotel, but there is a small one next to the marine (with limited hours). The rooms are clean but basic - they only have showers, not baths, for example. The breakfast buffet was nice, but not really impressive. Use of spa amenities (such as hot tub) is extra cost. The pools are smaller than they appear on the web site. Overall, it was ok, but from a three-star hotel I would expect more.

Amazing hotel overlooking the bay and Village Creole. The staff was great and helped us pick out a restaurant for dinner. It's about a 15 minute walk to downtown Trois Ilets or a 5 minute car ride. The rooms are awesome and the best views on the island.
