booked this hotel through Expedia.
1 wk before the trip, I contacted the hotel to confirm, and they had never heard of us.
Fortunately, they had rooms available. I contacted Expedia, but was disappointed
In the lack of communications to make me comfortable in taking this trip.
There were questions or problems with my credit card number, hotel only spoke French.
Getting nowhere, I called the hotel directly, used google translate, gave card number. Not sure what Expedia really did for this reservation.
Rooms are nice, consistent with other reviews. Built into a hillside. Park at top, decend to lobby,further to rooms, further to the pool, or further yet to a code gate to a public lot for the surfers beach. Some rooms on lobby level, but lots of stairs, no elevator/ramp. Enter room through door to patio. Patio has roof overhead, with kitchen counter. Coffeemaker, microwave, fridge, sink, dishes,pans. Room basic, good AC, small tv, no outlets in bathroom. Shower only. uses European outlets. Don't leave any food (incl. bananas) on patio, birds eat it. Bring coffee, microwave popcorn, beer/wine. Nearby restaurant at top of hill, called Le Phare, has bar, maybe 4-5 min Walk. Superette Christie in town of Tartane at Vito gas station, is grocery, has beer/wine/rum, etc. 5 min drive. Closes 7 pm. Hotel has free coffee in lobby until desk closes at 7 pm. Breakfast Expensive, but we just made our own. Pool not heated, closes 10:30 pm-7am. Place feels safe, door locks weak.
