Mahogany Hotel Residence & Spa

These is lovely French family resort where NO ONE speaks English. All forms etc are in French (Wasn't sure what I signed away, maybe my grandson). Nice beach and pool. Room only so-so. Air conditioning didn't work well. Food outstanding, very French. If you do not speak French, the whole island of Guadaloupe is a problem. The park and eco-travel lovely but the capitol city looks like a capitol in a developing country in Africa. I think other islands are more American friendly. If you are French I can recommend the resort.

This is a building which is part of a huge "tourist factory" (Creole beach)with rooms and regulations that make you feel more in prison than on vacations. Even the pool is surrounded by glass walls. Food is disgusting and prices are outrageously high. I don't recommend.

I really have an average opinion of this hotel. It had many nice features. However, one needs to remember....where you are. Older, with recent up dates. Problem with the language, and expense to dine there. Nice beach

I chose the hotel using reviews from other visitors. We were island hopping and wanted four nights in Guadeloupe. I was not dissapointed. The Mahogany Hotel is part of a much bigger complex of four hotels which are part of the Creole Beach Hotel complex in Gosier. It is situated on the Pointe de la Verdure in Gosier. The room was spacious and very clean and included a kitchen out on the balcony. Our room was in a very quiet location; the maids were not knocking on the door early in the morning. Staff very friendly and polite. Excellent swimming pools and private beach. We used the hotel restaurant once for breakfast and twice for dinner and found it to be of good quality. Breakfast is 15 Euros each and dinner buffet is 30 Euros. I was pleasantly surprised that a bottle of rose wine was only 7 Euros!!! Saturday night was the buffet barbecue and very popular. We have no complaints about the hotel except that the bar prices are steep!!! Gosier is about a 15 minute walk away and there is not much in the immediate vicinity of the hotel. However, the beaches in Gosier are very good. We found the locals very friendly and willing to chat and help especially in one attempts to speak French. Pointe a Pitre is a 3 Euro bus ride away. Guadeloupe in actually part of the European Union so no messing arround with immigration docs upon arrival!

The Mahogany Hotel is part of a larger complex that offers a wide variety of choices that should accommodate most anyone's taste. But the way it is set up each section can be accessed on the same floor and so coming in late at night, tired, I ended up having to go back to the main desk just to find the elevator and then again to find my section. Also, on my first stopover I was given a room that was not even in the Mahogany section but in the Yucca section which I later discovered was not nearly as nice as Mahogany. The common areas are great with a gorgeous pool, nice beach area, lovely breakfast diningroom, lounge with live music, restaurant overlooking the sea, etc.
