    There are a lot of stairs if you struggle with them.

    Lovely old historical property run within their home by Pascal and his family. Perfect location at the harbour mouth with sea views and close to all the restaurants. Comfortable beds and a lovely breakfast in the room or in the parlour area. Pascal was very welcoming and attentive.

    Personally we prefer breakfast in the beautiful reception/lounge room as we don't like to have breakfast on/in bed. Our shower was not working perfectly. Beds and bathrooms were not cleaned daily and wet towels not replaced

    Location is top. Rooms quite big and are beautiful decorated and suggest to take a room with harbour view.

    This was the only property which did not provide a kettle or facilités to make tea/ coffee. The waste bins were tiny and we were told that no member of staff would enter our room to clean or remove rubbish due to Covid restrictions, we had to ask for replacement towels of the shy but very pleasant young woman. Given the cost of the room for a 4 night stay, customer care was minimal. To get to the hotel by car we had to telephone the Corps de Garde to obtain the code to lift the barrier into that part of the town. The proprietor greeted us warmly on arrival, indicated where we could park ( very convenient and no charge) and kindly reserved dinner for us in a nearby restaurant, after that he remained very much in the background and the two young women in the kitchen dealt with any queries we had. The shower over the bath was only partially working and only soap was provided. The towels were rather worn. A small bottle of water was provide on arrival but nothing more after that and no fridge for our own water. Breakfasts were adequate but absolutely no variety of choice. The reception area was rather untidy and unwelcoming and lights were left on throughout the day which seemed wasteful to us in a time of heatwave. Our departure was somewhat scrambled due to finding our car parking bay had been taped off without warning, thé young woman helpfully wrote a note for the authorities and eventually the proprietor explained it was due to the visit of a government official and there was no need to worry about being towed away. Needless to say we ate breakfast very quickly and left in such a hurry that my husband discovered he only had one shoe out of a pair!

    The hotel was more like a Chambres d’Hotes, very spacious, well located on the quay with views to the lighthouse and harbour. The decor was fascinatingly French and the owner ( or wife) operated a boutique from which guests could purchase a range of fashionable items. We were free to come and go as we pleased, our room was delightful with a view of the port and town and breakfast was adequate. Our room was a good size and we could leave the window and blind ajar to allow ventilation. The bed was comfortable and we appreciated the sofa. We appreciated the good coffee at breakfast.

    A small suggestion and not a complaint. It might not fit in with the ambiance… but a kettle with tea/coffee in the room would be lovely .. to continue enjoying the view!

    Superb location on the port of St Martin; such an interesting house full of historical association & detail. Very well appointed room with harbour views. Charming, super helpful staff. Generous breakfast with copious amounts of tea & coffee. Safe bike storage. Easy access to come & go freely straight into St Martin.

    We could have used a bit more of amenities as we were staying there for a week.

    This is an amazingly special place to stay and discover Île de Ré, perfectly located in a building with history and character. Our room had views over the “ecluse” of the port of Saint Martin. Overall, great!
