Ile Des Pins could be described as closest place to paradise. Le Meridien somewhat captures the islands beauty, with arguably the best located hotel on the island. I have stayed here 3 times over the last year. The hotel is ok, with island time service and highly relaxed atmosphere. The hotel is somewhat dated (late 90's for their cabins and... More

Having just spent 4 nights at the Meridien Iles Des Pin the impression was one of disappointment. The Meridien markets itself as a 5 star resort and the reality is that it operates as a rapacious hotel devoid of customer service. Advertised Room Rates at Hotel Reception as of 21 April 2013 Superior Room at 66,000 CFP (approx USD$650) Deluxe... More

We were a group of 5 who arrived by sailboat after a 24 hour sail through major storm, hungry and exhausted. Arriving 5.30pm for dinner, freshly washed and dressed nicely, were told that without a booking they would not feed us.

We stayed for a week at this supposedly prestigious hotel in November 2012. We wanted to visit Isle of Pines and decided on Le Meridien because it was the only 5-star hotel on the island. Well, regrettably that was a poor choice. The worst negatives were: 1) Most of the staff at reception or in the restaurant do not speak... More

If you're travelling on your dream holiday and money is no object, then this has to be one of your must stay resorts. Apart from the gorgeous suites and unsurpassed views, the gardens are stunning and the secluded beach makes this a lovely place to stay for couples.

We stayed at Le Meridien from 23-26 December 2012. The hotel was very expensive at around A$700/night but we thought since it is Christmas, we would splurge a bit for our hotel stay for the trip. At first impression, it was very very nice. The hotel shuttle picked us up from the ferry jetty as we took the Betico ferry... More

The secluded area & beaches are gorgeous. The service is the worst I have ever experienced. They say they are 5 star, charge more than that & the service is 1 star. The manager was completely rude even when we complained about the shocking service. If you want a relaxing holiday with lovely beaches, great snorkeling, average food, terrible service... More
