It's like getting a dream vacation away from everything without ever setting foot on an airplane. Initially, the stay was supposed to be for one night, just to enjoy the turtle nesting and return home. However, that changed when we got there.The view from the room was amazing and the room in itself comfortable and cozy. If you never intended... More

Seated directly across from the Mt Plasir Hotel, Le Grande Almandier is a nice place to stay. Rooms are pretty basic, but comfortable. The beds were especially nice. Staff can provide a crib on request for small children. There's even hammocks outside the rooms on the 2nd floor. A nice touch. This is the perfect location from which to see... More

Wendy and Cherry were absolutely amazing. From the start we were greeted with a warm smile and friendly service. We stayed at Le Grande Almandier for one night to watch the leatherback turtles come to shore and lay their eggs...it was an unexpected and unforgettable experience. I had read the reviews prior to booking and they all had great things... More

The food is great. the service is very good. If you are interested in a natural getaway to enjoy nature at it's best this is the place. All said... More

I agree with sheens311, acceptable hotel, in an ideal location and 'as good as it gets'. The drive here is an adventure - very windy roads, single track in a few places. Four of us stayed in a room in the hotel. The room was basic and clean and we had a small rodent behind perspex in the eaves. We... More

We stayed at this hotel for 1 night in February. Too early for turtle watching, we came for the scenery which is lovely, the lagoon adjacent to the beach in particular. The hotel was almost empty. Our room was very small with hardly any space for luggage. The balcony was very tiny with space for two chairs and nothing else;... More

Positives: The location is perfect directly on the beach The... More

We visited this place earlier this year. I was not too sure what to expect. The room was smmmmaaaaalll and there is no tv, no radio, no internet...NO NOTHING. I thought I was going to go crazy without being plugged in. After 3 days you did not even notice. The beach is right outside and there is nothing more soothing... More

We stayed in one of the spacious apartments next to the hotel which was very clean and comfortable. The restaurant was excellent with a view of the beach and the staff were very friendly. We saw turtle hatchlings make a break for the sea and our son went out with the local fishermen to retrieve their catch. There was a... More
