French Coco

Beautiful stay in Tartane village in the north of Martinique - one hour and some from Fort de France with superlative service food and accommodations. Very nice flowery grounds shared with birds … Short walk to a very nice beach and some restaurants. Indeed a great find … truly a place to return to !

I love the artistic touches and simplicity of this hotel. From the beautiful light fragrance when I entered the room for the first time to the little plunge pool, which was a blessing since the weather was hot. All rooms also have an umbrella, which is important, as the rooms are separated from the main building where the restaurant is housed. The hotel is small, which makes it feel quite intimate, and you get to know the staff who work there. All the staff were really helpful and friendly even with my limited French, which I appreciated. One thing I found surprising is that there was no soap by the bathroom sink in the room (just lotion). There is also no lunch service, but that allows you to explore other places to eat. There were a few times when the wait staff could keep an eye on the table to remove used items or fill your water glass, especially since it wasn't very busy when I was there. But you will enjoy the meals at the restaurant. The food and drinks were always beautifully presented and delicious. Finally you can also take a short walk to the beach and the little town where there are other restaurants lining the street. Martinique was easy to get around with a rental car and GPS. The whole experience was fabulous and rejuvenating.

My wife and I stayed at the Hotel French Coco for seven nights in February on the last leg of our Guadeloupe, Marie Galante and Martinique holiday. We arrived in the afternoon having flown from Guadeloupe. We received a warm welcome from the reception staff - check in was slick and we were offered chilled flannels and a choice of drinks. After a brief orientation tour of the facilities we were shown around our accommodation - we had opted for a Caraibe suite. We had a very well-appointed room. There was a king sized bed provided with the standard duvet and pillows. It was a very comfortable bed with a supportive mattress. There were dark out curtains which did a good job in excluding the light from the sliding doors which led on to the terrace. Outside there were two sun loungers around a small splash pool as well as a table with two chairs for relaxing al fresco. There was a rocking chair as well. We could make hot drinks using the appliances on the side board on the terrace. The miniature bottles of rum which greeted us were a very welcome treat and there was another gift of some hotel branded body lotion. In the bedroom there was a safe in the wardrobe. Oddly, it was situated on such a high shelf that we needed to borrow a footstool so that we could use it! Bizarre!! The air conditioning unit was sufficiently powerful to keep the room at a suitable temperature so that we could sleep comfortably at night. The bathroom was spacious with a large sink and separate shower with both a rainfall head and a hand held head. The multitude of towels were thick and absorbent reflecting once again the quality of the accommodation - they were changed frequently. There was plenty of hanging space for our clothes as well as drawers in the wardrobe. The suite was blissfully quiet - we heard no sound whatsoever from adjacent units. Breakfast was served in the restaurant. We were asked to pre-order our selection the previous evening. There were yoghurts, pastries and fresh fruit with a selection of cook-to-order options. We found it sufficiently varied to meet our needs. We also had a dinner on our first and final nights - an interesting menu. The food was very good, both in its execution and presentation. Naturally it was considerably more expensive than other restaurants we ate at on our trips to various parts of Martinique. The hotel has a very attractive pool just below the restaurant. It didn’t seem to get a lot of use whilst we stayed at the hotel. The grounds are a delight with so many native plants and a plethora of bird life. It seemed to be policy to allow the undergrowth to grow relatively freely - this was easy on the eye as the vegetation had a more natural rather than a manicured appearance. The paths are all boardwalks which are kept clear by the tireless housekeeping team. We found the staff at the hotel to be universally excellent in their roles - friendly and helpful. Housekeeping was impressively unobtrusive

Good place but poor, unprofessional service. Pity they are a long way from the luxury they promise even with the mini pools which are useless (opt rather for a hot tub if you want to pamper your clients) plus the main pool is nithing to write home about.
