I had an incredible stay at this hotel – it truly exceeded all my expectations. First and foremost, it was evident that the staff took great care in maintaining the highest standards of hygiene, which certainly contributed to my peace of mind during my stay. The culinary experience was an absolute delight. Every meal served was not just delicious but of the utmost quality. I was truly impressed with the top-notch ingredients and the culinary skills of the kitchen team. What truly sets this place apart, however, is the warmth and attentiveness of the staff. They go above and beyond to ensure that your every need is met. It's evident that they genuinely care about the well-being and comfort of their guests. The range of activities offered during my stay was nothing short of spectacular. From massages to exciting sea adventures and exploring the island's treasures, there was never a dull moment. These experiences allowed me to create memories that will stay with me forever. Thanks to everything this hotel offers, my time on Sainte Marie was truly unforgettable. I can't wait to return for another remarkable stay.…

Great place to relax and party from an exhausting trip at the mainland. Great food and clean and very convenient rooms guarantee an unforgettable time. Even outside the whale season this hotel, and especially its staff, guarantee best service and good entertainment.

VERY disappointed with this hotel, which was nowhere near 4 star standards that it claimed. Unhygienic restaurant with flies on the uncovered food, poor refilling of the buffet, waiting staff who had no idea how to serve food, internet hardly working, TV in room hardly work, unprofessional staff and a manager who was not happy at being informed during our stay about the many problems. Agree with the other reviews about the terrible food. Compared to other hotels of 4 star standard, this hotel is well below normal standards. Too many problems and the standards were too low.

Amazing location, great staff, really clean and comfy rooms overall amazing stay... BUT try not to eat there. Food was pretty terrible, plastic left on baked Camembert, fish rice with no fish in it, seafood pasta tasted really off. Shame because it’s a beautiful place and the staff is lovely.... just not a great place to eat. I would highly recommend the place though.

What an amazing 5 star experience we had in Soanambo Hotel! We was treated like kings/ queens everyday with delicious 3 course dinners and entertainment every evening. The hotel organised day activities with fresh seafood lunches. They made our stay so special with little touches, even a small leaving gift etc. Best experience ever:) Merle from Estonia
