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 resort is apparently nice but it has a dimension which the management finds hard to keep up with. The reception was practically unmanned when we got there and we had to insist to grab someone's attention. The room we got was located some 400 meters away from the main hub of activity.

Great setting, rooms, activities, all let down by extremely poor service all round more
