Excellent location right on the coast with friendly and helpful staff and I thoroughly enjoyed my two nights stay here in a Mahogany room. The beach area is easily accessible. With a nice buffet food selection for both breakfast and dinner, I would recommend La Creole.
Beautiful place, most accommodating staff, terrific amenities. We spent a week with LaCreole in Mahogany. Other than sometimes helping a new person to find their room (numbering system is kinda crazy) it was terrific. We added daily breakfast to our room and found the buffet just amazing. Often we didn't want to eat again until dinner. Their beach is calm and refreshing, the pool immaculate. Our favorite staff was Indiana at the bar (yes, her name!) a delightful young woman who spoke American English! The nightly pianists were superb.
Greatly enjoyed our week. We splurged on one of the ocean facing junior suites and it was well worth the extra €30 daily. The beach is wonderful, especially great for kids as it is about 1 m deep from shore to the entrance to the bay. With only three choices for meals: buffet, beach café, and high end 20 table restaurant, booked far in advance, we started eating at local restaurants within walking distance on day four and found the food delicious, especially the fresh seafood. Note there is no cash machine at the resort, but the casino is only two blocks away. You need a passport to enter and use the cash machine. Free parking, but very crowded so be warned when you come back from a day out with your rental car. Hertz, conveniently next door. The live jazz three nights a week was terrific and we also got a carnival show on Valentine’s Day with spectacular costumes.…
Overall, I'd say this is not a great choice of hotels given the cost. We visited at the end of January 2023, and had a less-than-stellar experience. Things started off poorly: we arrived precisely at 4pm, which was the check-in time we got in our email confirmation. Unfortunately, the front desk told us our room wasn’t ready yet. They took down our phone number and promised to call us when it was ready. They never called. So to kill some time, we left and went out to swim at another beach and then grab some dinner, returning a couple of hours later to utter chaos in the parking lot. The lot was full; in fact, it was overflowing, with absolutely no place to park. Got yelled at by two different valets/parking attendants. They were rude and quite frankly I didn’t trust any of them with our car or our luggage. When we finally got to our room, we just wanted to shower and settle down for a good night’s sleep. Unfortunately, the shower was gimmicky and was hard to use. The beds here are uncomfortable, with stiff, scratchy sheets and weirdly-shaped pillows. The good: there’s a small private beach and a decent pool on the grounds. The place certainly has a big resort feel, which some might find as either a plus or a minus. We were going to get breakfast at the on-site restaurant, but they charge a whopping €29 per person, so we skipped that. If you’re going to Guadeloupe, I’d avoid this hotel. In fact, I’d avoid the entire Gosier and Grande-Terre area entirely and stick to smaller, more hospitable accommodations on Basse-Terre instead.…
But my god the buffet is a shocka! We were not late for breakfast by any means but there was nothing left. Nothing was replaced, all gone. We couldn’t even buy anything special if we wanted to. Bars are nice, beach side seafood resterant is over priced but at least it’s quiet, need some music playing. Subneds are good, snack bar has a good vibe too and the room was fab!
Excellent staff, helpful & efficient and spoke enough English to assist us. For a big hotel felt intimate & a real treat. Great room with sea view, fantastic outdoor kitchen. Cleaning staff very high standards & always happy to accommodate needs. Great breakfast selection, evening meal offers good choices and bountiful. Overall had a fantastic trip, would recommend this hotel for winter sun.
We enjoyed the resort and its wonderful, yet small beach. The jetty that protects the beach was our favorite spot where we could enjoy the sunset and see the cruise ships leaving Guadeloupe. In particular we enjoyed the Yureli Beach Bar for its fast service and tasty pizza.
Nice stay for a Solo Traveler. I am an American traveler who likes to be in contact with the locals. Most staff are bi-lingual in French and English. Customer service is great. You can exchange USD for Euros at the front desk otherwise most places accept credit card which is highly convenient. The kitchenette room is a great way to save money if you bring some snacks to prepare in your room then you can eat out for dinner. The hotel's Rum Tasting was a great value for free. If you are American you will need to bring a Euro power adaptor for the outlets ! I was disappointed with the available excursions as there were nothing available for local creole culture such as foods or crafts which was stated on the website. So I made my own excursion by taking the bus to the Museum Acte and then walked over to the Spice Market for souveneers. This was a great location and you can get around the town easily on the public bus for just over $1 each way. It's about 20 minutes from the hotel. The locals are friendly, keep in mind most locals don't speak English.…
I have stayed here before. This time I tried another one nearby. Creole Beach is really the top!!! Today I tried their Brunch. It was really GREAT. Next year I will be coming during the low season. By all means I will be staying at the beautiful Creole Beach. As far as I am concerned this is really the best !!!
We had an interest in visiting Guadeloupe and selected this hotel as we had deposits with RCI that we wanted to use. On the positive side, the staff from reception to the concierge were extremely pleasant and helpful. We had a lot of issues including baggage that didn't arrive with us, room issues, and the island being hit by a tropical storm, all of which were addressed with a great deal of kindness by the staff. The concierge helped us book a day trip that was very enjoyable. On the negative side, we booked a one bedroom suite through RCI only to learn that the bedroom on their one bedroom suites are on a different level which is reached by a narrow, winding staircase. When we expressed concern with the room, we were moved to a different room but disappointed that it did not have a separate bedroom. Our largest disappointment with this resort was when we discovered the 100 USD and 100 Euros had been stolen from my husband's wallet when he left it in the room on one of the days we went to the beach. Unfortunately we made the mistake on not using the safe in the room.…
