We visited the resort with our 2 kids, came from Turkey and stayed there for 4 happy days. The resort has a vintage beauty. We arrived there early, after a long, exhausting flight, but, the hotel was full and they couldn't give us a room before 15:00. However, they were kind and sincere and tried their best to help us. We tried the main restaurant and the snacks restaurant by the pool. Breakfasts were accompanied by beautiful birds and dinners by mystical frog sounds. Food options were mostly spicy, a little different for our taste but we didn't struggle finding options, more importantly, for the kids. They were very helpful changing the listed menu item and preparing foods according to our taste. My husband once had allergic symptoms, but the staff was very helpful, and stayed alert to bring us to the hospital quickly in case of an emergency. I wouldn't say that they were extremely professional because, in a place full of coconut trees, they said they "may" provide it only after 3-4 days. The pool was perfect for kids, the sand was beautiful; while you are chilling, kids can play safe and free. The boutiques were also nice with honest sellers. We stayed in a villa, upper floor, the garden was dreamy (but saw a dead bird not taken for days). Our room was beautiful, moderately clean, bathrooms were tired, the main bed was comfy but the sofa bed was NOT. Bottled waters provided once and should be filled using fountains (kids loved it). Overall, it was a nice experience for us.

Some of the furniture in the our room was quite worn out and had some kind of dirt all across it. It looked like there was gum or something sticky on the chair so we were unable to use the desk area properly. The mirror in the desk was also quite dirty. Everything else was absolutely amazing and beds were absolutely fantastic to sleep on. Thank you for all of the amazing hospitality and all of the services that were provided.

At the check in we noticed the bath was dirty , we mentioned to the staff but nobody did care to come and see us , the staff in general have no clue about service so I would take off the word luxory and charge less as rooms are in need of renovation , if you want to get to flic and flac center you need to take a taxi as the road is dark with no sidewalk, taxi in the resort will accept only cash , you might wonder why.. , and they charge 6 pounds for 5 minutes drive , the beach is full of little rocks and dead corals , boats are passing by very close to the beach that almost get you if you are in the water which is not deep , the 3 star are just for the food and spa.

Not as good as I hoped

I love other Sofitel properties around the world. They generally have great knowledgeable staff and really go above and beyond for the customer. I can’t say that for this place . I was unable to get any reservations at the restaurants and we were there over a week! That’s ridiculous and they should have tried to at least accommodate a beach dinner . I also was out in a bit so luxurious room when they had better rooms available. My room didn’t even have a working ac it was super hot the first night and we complained we stayed j. The room for another 3 nights. It was really difficult to get a taxi and the hotel didn’t do much to help us. Overall I would t recommend this hotel.
