Beach Hotels in Schoelcher, Fort-de-France

"The hotel staff are nice and the rooftop pool and hot tub are a great bonus. The restaurant has an impressive view but the menu is quite extravagant and extremely limited. Room service only offers the few dishes that are on the main restaurant menu. We felt quite isolated as there are no restaurants, bars etc in walking distance. You really do need to hire a car - but driving there as a tourist is quite scary! Taxis are slow to come and quite expensive. The rooms are very basic but the AC was cold and the wifi worked well (on the lower floors only)."

"There was no wifi for the whole duration of our stay (1 week) and we kept being told that there was a problem with the Internet which was going to be sorted but it never was. I'd rather be told that there is no wifi provided at the property so that I can plan accordingly. Staff at the beach we found to be on the rude side. The property itself is lovely and clean and the beach is really nice."

"Simon Hotel – Great Location, Service Needs Work The Simon Hotel is in a prime location with easy access to several great nearby restaurants—that’s its biggest strength. However, aspects of the rooms could use attention. Some furniture appeared stained, and there was a noticeable musty smell on certain floors and in some rooms. In my case, it was significant enough that I had to change rooms. Dining was a challenge. Restaurant hours are limited and awkward, making it easy to miss both breakfast and dinner. Room service also closes very early—by 10:00 p.m.—which is unusual. On one occasion, I was advised to come downstairs for a simple fruit plate and coffee instead of using room service, which defeats the purpose of paying for that convenience. Overall, an average experience with clear potential, but improvements are needed in room upkeep, service, and dining availability. "

"Clean room , staff was great "

"Not a waterfront property, it has a view of a crowded public beach at the base of a steep climb. The bungalows are cute and clean but very modesty furnished with cheap furniture, thin towels, and minimal kitchen. The owner won't provide a gate code so one often has to street park and drag self, groceries, and luggage up an arduous, steep climb. The restaurant is seldom open, in a week and coming and going I never saw anyone eating there. No window screens, lots of mosquitoes and no-see-ums to join in the late night racket from beach parties. "

"Beau jardin, mais les chaises sont vieilles. Environnement paisible. Le pommeau de douche ne tenait pas en place. Personnel accueillant. "

"The rooms were clean just dated, staff were very unfriendly, the breakfast was good but overpriced and parking was easy, but anything was uphill."

"PROs: The property is very clean. The gardens and grounds are kept neat and all areas are clean. The huge pool is wonderful. It is a secure resort so we felt very safe. On-site grocery was great to keep costs down. Inexpensive food options are available (cafe with crepes; pizza, etc), there are nightly activities (dancing, music, etc). Nice beaches are right in front of the hotel. Staff helpful and friendly! sunsets are amazing. CONS: The resort has an old feel. Rooms feel dated and somewhat 'patched up' in places. You feel like you are stepping back in time but there is also certain old school charm nonetheless; concrete walkways are cracked in many places giving it a worn appearance. For the luxury level prices, the place could have been more updated. There are daily excursions through a third party company but prices are very high. Complementary shuttle to airport would have been appreciated. "
