Hotel Bakoua Martinique

Was breakfast included? I didn’t know that if it was and never had breakfast at the hotel restaurant. The location for tourists was the best I’ve seen on the island. It’s a 30 minute drive from the airport and a two minute walk to the adjacent Village Creole, with a grocery store, and many shops and restaurants. Additionally, the marina is located next to the Village which was ideal for the ferry to Fort de France and boat excursions. The room was spacious, well appointed with lots of storage, and the bed, pillows and duvet cover were heavenly! I had a beautiful view of the beach and over to Fort de France. The staff were always very responsive and helpful. I was there over the Christmas holidays, and the special added touch of finding gifts in my room, and a beautiful fruit plate on Christmas Day was a thoughtful and classy touch.

The beach is the most beautiful sand and clear water on the island, I just wish it was larger to be able to walk along. Additionally, the wifi connection would cut out every time my phone shut off and I’d have to constantly re-connect. I also didn’t like all the smoking on the beach and the smokers all leaving their cigarettes butts in the sand everywhere.

This hotel is set on beautiful grounds, with it's own private beach, and easy access to other beaches in the area. It's also very convenient for the ferry to Fort de France. There's a nice shopping area just next to the hotel with a number of restaurants. Breakfast is quite nice, and the breakfast room has wonderful views. I actually got sick during the visit, but the hotel staff was extremely helpful, getting me a doctor and preparing special foods for me. I thank them very much for that.

Location in a lovely area, across the bay from Fort de France, not really “resorty” compared to mega-resorts, but a nice feel, lots of good restaurants nearby etc. Beachfront room was excellent - very glad we chose it. Beach is small but lovely with great views across to FdeF. All staff were outstanding, particularly on reception - they deserve a special mention for going above and beyond, with a wonderful welcome, and taking personal responsibility for arranging our departure taxi, even after we’d checked out.

Possibly a little overpriced compared to other hotels in Martinique, especially considering breakfast not included. Also be warned that cruise ship passengers can pay for a day-pass on the (relatively small) beach. The staff do prioritise hotel guests, but nonetheless it felt crowded and noisy on the day they were there (compared to other much more chilled days).

The room was next to the beach, with a lovely patio and terrific views of the water. Couldn't hear any noise from adjacent rooms. The bed was comfortable, and the air conditioning worked well. Had the breakfast one morning, and it was very good.

The section of hotel was dated, but well maintained. It could use some updating, but overall, the hotel was very nice.

Sea side patio, outdoor pool, ocean side bar, beach was small but pleasant, not a busy season, close to a lot of shops and restaurants, spacious well equipped room, attractive lobby

A lot of steps to go from seaside to the pool or front desk, couldn’t get the tub to work (shower was fine), room seemed a little outdated (furniture and fixtures)

Lovely beach, pool and setting overall. Comfortable bed, I had a room right in front of beach ⛱️ Staff were super friendly and let my friends hang out at the hotel bar and pool even before check-in. Also my luggage was kept in storage after check-out for half a day and they even let me shower in an unoccupied room before I headed to airport.

I have no negative comments! Except it was a little loud during the day to be in room right by the beach....but that is no surprise.

- beach rooms are great, you open the door and directly on the beach and sea (which is too shallow unfortunately) - amazing view from the top restaurants and pool - there is a small "mini village" right nearby with a lot of restaurants, shops, etc. - they were flexible with the checkin hour - nice reminders and communication (automatic) before reservation period - great room cleaning at constant hours - fast intervention when you have a problem - they even set up a free computer with a printer so you can print your travel documents if needed

- very unreliable Wi-Fi in the rooms and on the terrace/beach - the beach, while looking great, is pretty small and probably feeling a bit crowded, especially because they allow any non-guests on the beach - the a la carte restaurant (for dinner) is fancy like: expensive, small dishes, nothing great about it, and on top of that we waited far too long for food even though there were very few clients. You're better off going to the nearby restaurants

Nice rooms facing beach

Needs some upkeep. There should be at least ONE person in front desk that speaks some English - none did - was frustrating.

The Josephine suite is the best room, with the best view, extremely nice, but twice the price as other rooms. The beach rooms were also nice and quiet.

beach is fab, hotel restaurants are amazing, location is great other restaurants and bars close by, ferry to Fort de France only a couple of mins walk and car hire companies 1 min from the hotel. Breakfast was excellent.
