The property is very nice and located across the beach. However, there is no provision for transportation and there is no restaurant on site. Otherwise it would be one of the best hotels in Cap Haitien.

I absolutely loved the view. I could see the water from my balcony and that was a lovely site. The staff was great and accommodating and the property is very clean. As far as what I did not like, the road leading to the property needs to be improved. Otherwise, a great property and great staff.

This is an amazing place, beautiful view of the ocean, very clean, staff went above and beyond to meet the guest (s) needs. My most dislike is: they did not have a good food options for the complimentary breakfast, like ( coffee, milk, condiments, warm bread, ect) the small little things that makes for a great breakfast. This writer is fully aware that such things may be difficult to obtain at times, a little extra effort is all that is being ask.

It’s a very nice hotel by the beach but unfortunately there isn’t a restaurant on site and it’s a turn off. Otherwise it would be one of the top hotels in Cap Haitien. The ownership should strongly reconsider having a restaurant on site if they want to remain competitive and be one of the best destinations.

Many Things Still Need to be Done

There's a lot of things need to be done. Although the staff are very polite and amazing there is still some things at the hotel that needs work. For example, there's no ac during the day time, they only serve breakfast and not any other meals. This was a beautiful looking hotel but it still needs a lot of work.
