The hotel has a charming reception team who all spoke excellent English (Annabel's was near faultless) and all of whom went out of their way to help with restaurant bookings, cycle hire advice etc. The location of our room, the standalone "Pavilion Jardin", close to the beautiful garden was a bonus. Whilst it overlooked the pool on one side, this was not an issue as the pool shuts at 7pm, and the pool users were very considerate. Air conditioning, a comfortable bed, and a spacious bathroom made for a very comfortable stay overall. The extra charge for parking may seem a bit steep but given the limited availability of spaces in the streets around, definitely worth paying for. (We hardly used our car in the 5 days we were there - we explored almost entirely on foot or by bicycle - but had driven down from St Malo. If flying to La Rochelle, you would not need a car.)

It doesn't detract from the overall rating, but breakfast, at E25/head, felt rather expensive, so we only ate there once (the scrambled eggs were, however, superb!) There is a great boulangerie, which also serves coffee etc, a stone's throw away by the port, and as breakfast is not included in the room price, that is an easy alternative.

Great location close to the centre of St Martin de Re. Secure parking and a lovely comfortable room. Staff were very helpful. Breakfast was a buffet, a good selection of hot and cold food and pastries. Very pleasant bar serving a small selection of cold plates - charcuterie, cheese and smoked salmon. Good choice of wine. Lovely live jazz evening

The breakfast was great but thé croissant and pain au chocolat could have been fresh from the morning from a local bakery while they seemed to have been frozen. Fruit salad was ok but we were missing a bit of the great fresh fruit of the season

Love the history of the building and way it has been tastefully restored

That whilst they don’t accept dogs to stay the owners have a dog who rules the roost and also barks at men. The owners seem oblivious to its presence all around the hotel.

Location was perfect. Staff very friendly and helpful before and during my stay. Beautiful bed linen and comfortable bed. My room was perfect and so Ile de Re. Top marks. Pool area while small was lovely. Spotless.

Nothing. All was excellent.

La Baronnie is superb - the rooms, bar, pool and gardens are all stunning . And the staff are incredible - they cannot do enough to help you and make your stay extra special .

It was our first first of Isle de Re and we found St Martin in particular absolutely charming and we will be back. The quality of the restaurants and shops was super - it was so nice going everywhere on a bicycle and not having to use the car. We had a super time and would thoroughly recommend to friends.

We found the lighting in our room poor (especially the bedside/reading lights).

Absolutely fabulous place to stay. Sonia who works there deserves a special mention she was outstanding in her customer service.

Nothing!

Staff go above and beyond and made us feel very welcome

A wonderful, spacious house with every possible thing needed for a party of 10 friends, fabulous location and friendly helpful staff.

It would have been nice to have a coffee selection in the house and more towels.
