Zweckdienlicher Stop
Ich war skeptisch über die einerseits guten und andererseits schlechten Bewertungen. Schlussendlich ist es eine Einstellungssache im Kopf. Das Hotel ist 30 Jahre alt und es wurde nicht viel gemacht, hat aber alles was auf der Website angegeben ist. Leider ist das Management nicht sehr engagiert, denn es würde sich durchaus etwas mehr daraus machen lassen, denn die Lage ist ausgezeichnet.

Hotel intéressant pour 1 nuit avant une traversée
Arrivée plus tôt que prévu, avant 12h, nous avons apprécié d'avoir pu nous installer dans une chambre bien climatisée avec la vue sur la mer. Il est possible de boire du café ou du thé, de réchauffer son repas dans un micro-onde et de profiter d'un petit frigo. Nous avons pu également partir très tôt pour la traversée vers la Martinique à 7h. Le ferry est à 30 minutes à pied. Le propriétaire propose également d'organiser pour nous le trajet en taxi. La salle de bain est vieillotte mais tout fonctionne. Le lit est confortable.

Communication is Key
This is great if you do not require lavish amenities but a clean room with peace and quiet at a low cost. I felt safe however upon arrival no one mentioned that I had to turn on the wall taps myself to have power in the room. I spent 30 minutes to an hour trying to figure out how to turn the lights on ,the television and to be able to charge my phone being that the outlets are not the same as in the USA. There is no office to go to upon arrival, The Property mgr just appeared out of no where after me knocking on all sorts of doors for almost an hour in the heat. The caretaker just said oh here is your room and vanished. In addition per the web for this property it states that there are airport transfers, well only to the nearby airport not the Henwanorra International Airport, which was never disclosed ,so when i arrived at the airport I called the property and I was told that no one would come pick me up because this airport is a Little over an hour way. So A taxi will cost you $100 . The people on this island charge because you are American and they know you need them to get around if you don't rent a car. However the caretaker of the property was very gracious to assist me in other ways that, im very grateful for despite the stress of not having transportation to the property or power once arriving that I had to figure out for myself having this being my first time to the island and a solo traveler. Only 5 minutes From Sandals by car

No front desk to speak of. Extremely confusing check in. A random staff worker found us searching for reception, and then seemed to pick Adam apartment at random to give us. The apartment itself was average. It was spacious, just no AC in the living room. But every person we met afterward had trouble checking in or reaching the owner. Very strange, and made me feel uneasy during the stay.
