Our family (parents, 2 adult offspring plus partners) spent 10 days at la Plantation in early December. We were concerned about the bad reviews we'd read on this site and are very pleased that we didn't let the negative reports affect our decision to take advantage of the excellent special offers at this hotel. There were many times when we... more

HONEY MOON from HELL. Worst hotel I've EVER stayed in!! Please avoid because if you complain the under-hand manager will threaten to kick you out or lie & make up stuff about you. We are currently on our 2nd letter to VIRGIN, who dismissed our 1st as the manager made up lies about us breaking sun bed & chucking water... more

Damp, smelly rooms with filthy showers and toilets with no hot water. Stray dogs from the beach in the swimming pool. Birds in the restaurant leaving excrement over tables and chairs. Large groups of large and often drunk men from the local oil rig, swearing and shouting at the top of their voices. Not conducive to the 'great for families... more

We went through to La plantation this November and had the time of our lives I will try and break it down slightly Reception when arriving This can take a little while to get to your room and it only seems like a long time due to the fact that you have just arrived after a long trip and have... more

This hotel seems to get its fair share of bad reviews and unfortunately I have to agree with some of the comments. The problem here is not that the hotel is bad - in many respects it's very good - it's just that it still fails to meet your expectations for this type of establishment and so you can't help... more

We arrived in the afternoon and though we were served almost immediately the service was on the slow side, but totally understandable since we're in on an island... The location is the gem of this hotel and you will notice the refurbishments of the interior. However the service of the staff and management were just toooo slow and things get... more

We stayed at the La Planation hotel for our honeymoon for 10 days. Overall we were pleased with our choice of hotel and it met our expectations. Our room overlooked the sea and was spacious and furnished to a high standard. The food was adequate, we would recommend eating in the beach side restaurant which has waiter service. The all... more

What absolute rubbish people have been writing about this resort! Honestly, I think they must have stayed somewhere else! This hotel should be classified as 5 star luxe and not the 4 star luxe. It's wonderful and so, so relaxing. We didn't want to leave! On arrival we were greeted very warmly and welcomed with a drink. I loved the... more
