Some of the furniture in the our room was quite worn out and had some kind of dirt all across it. It looked like there was gum or something sticky on the chair so we were unable to use the desk area properly. The mirror in the desk was also quite dirty. Everything else was absolutely amazing and beds were absolutely fantastic to sleep on. Thank you for all of the amazing hospitality and all of the services that were provided.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
At the check in we noticed the bath was dirty , we mentioned to the staff but nobody did care to come and see us , the staff in general have no clue about service so I would take off the word luxory and charge less as rooms are in need of renovation , if you want to get to flic and flac center you need to take a taxi as the road is dark with no sidewalk, taxi in the resort will accept only cash , you might wonder why.. , and they charge 6 pounds for 5 minutes drive , the beach is full of little rocks and dead corals , boats are passing by very close to the beach that almost get you if you are in the water which is not deep , the 3 star are just for the food and spa.

Not as good as I hoped
I love other Sofitel properties around the world. They generally have great knowledgeable staff and really go above and beyond for the customer. I can’t say that for this place . I was unable to get any reservations at the restaurants and we were there over a week! That’s ridiculous and they should have tried to at least accommodate a beach dinner . I also was out in a bit so luxurious room when they had better rooms available. My room didn’t even have a working ac it was super hot the first night and we complained we stayed j. The room for another 3 nights. It was really difficult to get a taxi and the hotel didn’t do much to help us. Overall I would t recommend this hotel.

Nice private beach. Service in the bars and restaurants was variable. Sometimes excellent, more often slow, and occasionally overwhelmed by guest numbers. Although well maintained, the property had the feel of somewhere that needed a touch more tlc.

Great property and friendly staff!
We are from Mumbai and recently stayed for a week. (Early sep19). The proprty has most of the tick marks and I shortlisted after a lot of research. Its on flic en flak beach on the west coast. Clean beach and a good boathouse for all the key water sports. Nice rooms with views, wonderful garden area, pool area, and choice of 5 restaurants. The breakfast menu is quite varied and good. Would like to thank and mention Pravin at the breakfast restaurant for making us feel at home during the entire stay and Yash for helping organise the city tours . Great job both of you . Overall a great stay and would love to come back again !
