Fond Doux Eco Resort

We loved our stay here. Food and servuce was exceptional. We were here for 3 nights in one of the cottages. Rooms were huge, kids loved watching the bats and lizards, we even saw a mongoose. Every night forest was alive with sounds of frogs and birds.

This resort is the definition of relaxation and tranquility. As a solo traveler, I felt safe and well taken care of on the resort. Staff was friendly and always attentive! The resort was clean and kept tidy which I appreciated. The resort is small, but they offer chocolate making, and other activities I didn’t participate in. There’s two pool areas on property but only one was available, is my only complaint. I would definitely visit again and recommend to others!

The experience we had exceeded our expectations. The staff were polite and friendly. They had made us feel welcome and comfortable. The room we had “Heliconia” was very clean. The restaurant had very delicious food, esp the Chicken Alfredo. Also the free shuttle to Sugar Beach was a nice addition. We would definitely recommend this resort.

Stayed in the Begonia room for our honeymoon. The hotel property is surrounded by lush green nature, and every room or cottage has its own privacy, the Room was nice and clean . food was amazing. The breakfast buffet was a favorite of ours as every morning was something different to expect. We also had the opportunity to creat our own chocolate bars. But the staff made it most memorable, as they were super accommodating, any request i had was met with 5 star plus service and felt like they did everything to make sure i was having a great time. From the bartenders, waitresses, receptionist, maintenance guy,tour guides,and chocolate lady everyone was amazing and i will be visiting again.

The staff are all amazing and very accommodating. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the wifi is very good. The food in the restaurant is amazing and fresh. You can walk around nature and pick fresh fruits off the trees inside the resort. We also enjoyed the free shuttle to sugar beach. Overall, our stay was amazing and will definitely recommend this resort. Thank you!!!

This was my second stay at Fond Doux and I would go again. However things this time around were disappointing. There were no evening entertainment options, it would be nice to have at least a live musician some evenings during dinner. The pool was inoperable during the time we were there, and if our cottage didn't come with it's own amazing a private plunge pool I would have been upset. The chocolate tour wasn't running because the person who does it was out sick, it would be great to have backup person for the tour since this was a highlight of my first visit. The resort is located on stunning grounds with trails to explore and the receptionist nor anyone else even described where to go to explore the grounds. It's only because I have been there before that I knew to look for the petit trail/hike that is on the grounds which is amazing. It's a huge amenity and should be played up/offer walking tours of the grounds. Unfortunately the main trail was also under maintenance/closed so we were not able to fully explore it. The small fitness center has mold and was dilapidated and basically unusable. A map of the grounds available digitally would be a great addition so that guests know about all the amenities and the trails. Taxis are very expensive, so you are best off making arrangements with one driver pre-trip to take you everywhere you want to go for a flat fee, otherwise you will wind up spending well over $600 on taxis to from the airport and to go around town. Finally one of the receptionists was cold/had a bit a of an attitude.||Now on to the good things and the reasons I would return again - the location is amazing and breathtaking, the cottages are just wonderful, cozy and an amazing place to unplug and recharge. WiFi worked great. Restaurant staff - A+. All staff was super friendly and very helpful except the one receptionist. ||Fond Doux will always hold a special place in my heart. If you are looking for a place to disconnect and have peace/enjoy nature, this is your spot.

Stayed in Angelina. Loved it! Gorgeous yellow house for my friend and me, with so much Caribbean character. The decor was beautiful. We loved sitting on the veranda and looking at the gorgeous trees and plants, watching birds, enjoying the peace. At night the noise from the tree frogs was incredible but the beds were very comfortable and they didn't keep us awake! It felt like such an amazing experience to be among the trees and listen to the wildlife. |The restaurant was very good and the staff all very helpful and friendly. We did the chocolate heritage tour which was very interesting too.

Had a most wonderful stay for a week at this hotel - absolutely different from any other experience. Although it rained every day (it is not called the rain forest for nothing!) it was so relaxing to sit on the porch of Cinnamon and watch the humming birds on the flowers. (Be aware that at night the whistling tree frogs and insects are NOISY!) Shyne was a wonderful guide who took us around the estate tour, the chocolate tour (where we made our own bar of chocolate) and also the historical tour. The food was excellent (we unfortunately discovered how good fried bakes were!) and the staff so friendly both in reception, the restaurant and the bar. We walked to the Hotel Chocolat for lunch one day, and also walked the Tet Paul trail from the hotel (hard work but well worth the uphill climb!) |For future guests the on site trail to see the Pitons is quite easy going up, but quite rocky on the return circuit (it is a circular trail). Also - if you take the mini bus to Sugar Beach it drops you at security which is quite a long way down to the beach - and hard work on the way back - we were 1 minute late (it returns at 3pm) and it had left early - we had to contact reception who luckily sent a car to pick us up! (As a word of warning - the restaurant at Sugar Beach is excessively expensive we were charged 13 US dollars for a bottle of water(nearly £10) and this is the only place in 2 weeks where we were charged for water! We had to eat there as it was pouring with rain - a burger, a jerk chicken, 1 beer and 1 coke and a bottle of water was nearly £100!.
