Auberge de La Vieille Tour

WOMEN BEWARE: Wish I had been fearful when I saw the review of another woman from a few months ago saying a man tried to climb into her room. On the first night of my stay, I caught a man gawking into my room after I had just gotten out of the shower - nude. The back wall is almost entirely glass; and I could not pull down the blinds over the tub in the bathroom. The man, thin white man dressed in a white button down shirt and navy or black shorts with flip flops, lingered after it was clear I caught him. I was terrified (and preparing to fight) wrapped in a towel as he just stood there for several minutes, feet away from me with the ability to easily enter the terrace. It was dusk; and I was unable to get a photo of his face but did get his clothing in the photo. I watched him intensely not knowing what he would do next. As he left, he licked his mouth and tongue in a way that I have never seen before. He showed no remorse, did not mouth an apology or otherwise act as if this was unintentional. I called the front desk and was told they would *try to find me another room. Security came (one woman who was kind/stayed outside of my room until I packed), and I was moved to a more dated room off of the ground floor with no reimbursement. I was traveling from the US, on a short stay (on a break from a church mission trip), and determined to not let this (or anything) ruin my trip. I’m certain the search for this guy ended as soon as I was out of the way in a new space. I brought this up with any new person I saw at the front desk. Not all were made aware that this had happened. The only after action, to my knowledge, is a brief writing in a notebook saying that a guest in room 84 had reported an incident and was moved. As for not ruining my trip, I have spent so much time regretting not getting a better photo as it might be the only way to warn and protect other women who might be or consider being guests at this hotel. The environment (not the hotel) is beautiful, but I’m certain you can get that elsewhere with less concern of a man preying on women. I don’t generally leave reviews, good or bad. This, however, has troubled me; and I want other women to be warned. This guy showed no remorse; and another woman’s similar review has caused me to wonder if this is habitual conduct against women that the hotel is failing to remedy.

Still a beautiful hotel but showing signs of aging. The crew is very friendly. Bars and other amenities are closed during the day which makes the swimmingpool look somewhat quiet. The hotel could benefit from a refresher as the view on the ocean is breathtaking.

The buffet breakfast was very good, wide selection of food and drinks. Dinner needed phone translator since everything on menu was in French, but the food was superb! Staff was very helpful and surprised us by bringing luggage right to our room while we had drinks in the bar. The view from balcony was beautiful and room was very quiet.

Nice suite with view to the sea. Excellent bed quality and air condition. Somehow worn-out environment generally, especially at swimming pool and hotel beach area. Quality of service ambivalent and depending on individual staff. Very poor english skills among the staff, thus, w/o French language difficult to communicate (like almost everywhere on French carib islands).

Nice place, direct access to a private beach. Laceted - as the name says - near an old tower. Spacy rooms with sea view. Good restaurant with friendly and helpfull staff. Negtive experience at check-in: No water in our assigned room, had to change to another one, rechange the next day ...

This is a lovely place. I just wish there were more activities offered to guests apart from just lounging by the pool or beach. Once I was done eating the place was boring. They should consider adding some entertainment to entice guests. Also the food can use some improvement as well.

Friendly welcome. Staff helped with our average French. Room was clean and practical. Not exceptional. Just meeting the minimum required for that price point which was a little disappointing. Cleaned room daily. Evening visit to check we were happy. The hotel itself and amenities were just average - the staff were definitely making an extra effort to make our stay special.

This hotel need a renovation all the amenities (beach, swiming pool, outside area...) are really run down and the room have not seen an update since 1970's. Nice view from the room but all the hotel is not ADA compliant with a lot of stairs (forget it if you have heavy luggage's!)
