This is a clean place to stay. The prices are steep but so is any nice spot in Port-au Prince. It's a bit of a trek away from everything so you need a vehicle to go anywhere (if you're expecting to walk around this is not the place to stay). The pool is nice, the staff is warm and you... More

This was a lovely hotel near to town, which was important for me. The pool is delicious and the food was great with great service. There were a few instances where the water didn't work but soon returned. Would go back in a minute.

Good rooms but average service. Restaurant is great (Chef understands what cooking means). Swimmingpool is also a great place to be. I recommand definitively.

I went to one of the most memorable weddings ever this this weekend. The ceremony was in a garden overlooking the mountains... it really was an amazing view. The reception was in one of the ball rooms which sat 120 people. Food was delicious and lux. They made a 100% lobster (no filler, not in shell) dish with butter and... More

I travel 100k+ miles a year, 3 continents so I know business hotels very well and what to expect. This has to be the worst service I've ever seen in my 38 years roaming planet earth! Where do I begin? Took 5 phone calls in a 36h period and a threat that i wasn't going to pay for the room... More

I've stayed in many places all over Haiti (both before and after the earthquake) and this is probably the nicest/fanciest I have seen in Port au Prince! The staff is almost always helpful and usually fun to chat with. As far as slow service, this is true, but it is also very common cultural occurrence - dinner at a nice... More

On March 14th 2012, members of the Canadian Police Contingent in Haiti held a medal ceremony and related functions at the Karibe Hotel. This event was the result of several planning meetings between Karibe Hotel staff and our event coordinator. Deliverables included sufficient room reservations, a reception, two official dinners and the medal ceremony itself. The Reservations Manager was patient... More

Don't e in a rush, they know they have a monopoly on comfort and safety and they are in no rush to accommodate anyone in a rush. Very colonial type service by the locals in that they are very subserviant which I did not like...passive aggressive more like it. Over all though, I enjoyed my experiences here for the 2... More

For Haiti, this is a very nice hotel. There is a gigantic pool which I swam in a few times, almost always by myself, which surprised me. The rooms are pretty quiet and reasonably comfortable. I felt safe on the grounds, and anyone who has been to Haiti knows that it is chaotic and unsettling for the most part. There... More

My husband, our two children and I stayed at Karibe for 1 week. My husband is Haitian and I am Canadian. We were impressed with the grounds and gardens, but the service received was TERRIBLE!!! When making our reservation months in advance, we specified that we needed a cot for my 11 year old son (whom we payed an extra... More
