Le Francois Hotels

"PROs: The property is very clean. The gardens and grounds are kept neat and all areas are clean. The huge pool is wonderful. It is a secure resort so we felt very safe. On-site grocery was great to keep costs down. Inexpensive food options are available (cafe with crepes; pizza, etc), there are nightly activities (dancing, music, etc). Nice beaches are right in front of the hotel. Staff helpful and friendly! sunsets are amazing. CONS: The resort has an old feel. Rooms feel dated and somewhat 'patched up' in places. You feel like you are stepping back in time but there is also certain old school charm nonetheless; concrete walkways are cracked in many places giving it a worn appearance. For the luxury level prices, the place could have been more updated. There are daily excursions through a third party company but prices are very high. Complementary shuttle to airport would have been appreciated. "

"The actual resort was beautiful but other than the pool and beach, there was nothing else to do. The food was okay. This is not a great travel destination for Americans, unless fluent in French. The American was flying inverted, which made us stay at the resort and not travel outside. Overall, pretty resort and that is the only positive I can provide."

"I think I happened upon one of the best overall hotels on the island. The location is great because it is right on one of the better maintained popular beaches with several nearby food options and a small grocery store. My room was an upper room overlooking the beach and bay. Because it is a popular beach, it was difficult to find a parking spot in the hotel parking lot during the weekend days, but spaces became available in the evening. The room was very clean and well maintained. It was very quiet at night, all you hear is the waves on the beach. I recommend the nearby sushi place and pizzaria. Great hotel."

"This property is fantastic. The apartment is fully equipped and the location is great…a short walk to restaurants and places to pick up food and other supplies. Beautiful and quiet swimming pool. We would definitely go back. "

"Reception and restaurant on site are often closed which is very deceiving. The beach is not very long and full of plaque of thick rocks."

"Yes"

"To be clear, I base this on the north american standards I am used to. The front desk staff was not very welcoming or friendly, however check in was fairly quick. The code for the internet was posted on a sign at the front desk and when i asked about it, he said to take a picture. The internet only worked in the lobby or the bar...not in the rooms. We went to order a pizza and were told we cant place a call from our room. They did dial the number from the front desk for us. The pool and outside bar area were lovely!! Nice to sit up there and have a drink in the warm air. There is a $46 charge on my credit card (on top of the room charge) that might be some sort of tourist tax??? I have no clue as it was not explained. The room was clean and functional and we were only there one night so it suited our needs. It is dated and felt cramped, but we did have a small table and chairs that we appreciated. I felt the price we paid was too high for what we got, but again, used to hotels in Canada and the US."

"Good room!"

"Very large but dated accommodation. Very "
