Best Hotels near Pointe-à-Pitre

Standing over a secluded stretch of Guadeloupe sand just south of Pointe-à-Pitre, La Créole Beach Hôtel & Spa offers plenty in the way of relaxation. You can start your day with a steam bath and Payot treatment at La Créole Spa before claiming a chair by one of three pools or the beach. Afterward, indulge your taste buds at buffet-style Routes des Epices, the beachside pizzeria or Le Zawag, a restaurant that serves elevated Creole dishes. Just note that if you're looking for an action-packed trip, La Créole is not the place for you. Recent guests called this hotel a mellow, laid-back retreat. The casual, relaxed atmosphere extends to its guest rooms, which showcase bright white hues and simple wooden decorations, along with minifridges, desks and satellite TVs. While most past visitors were satisfied with their stays, some complained of language barriers with staff and worn accommodations and public spaces with malfunctioning air-conditioning units, broken elevators and thin walls.

Located along the southern coast of Guadeloupe, the Mahogany Hôtel Résidence & Spa is situated on the same property as La Créole Beach Hôtel & Spa. The hotel sits southeast of Pointe-à-Pitre and a short walk from the beach. Guests have four room types to choose from, and accommodations are outfitted with stark white bedding and furniture, mahogany-tinted table and headboard accents, terraces, kitchenettes and complimentary Wi-Fi access. Outside the rooms, travelers can head to the spa for a massage or detox session in the sauna, or lay out by the pool (complete with a bar, ample lounge chairs and a palm tree perimeter). As far as dining goes, the Mahogany Hôtel Résidence & Spa houses a few eateries that dish out everything from Creole cuisine to pizza. Recent visitors cited the pool and beach areas as some of the property's best features. However, many said there's a lot of room for improvement, noting the hotel's older building, average decor and overpriced rates as drawbacks.
