Guest Houses in Bel Ombre

The place is surrounded by jungle and located far from the noise, and it also offers a beautiful view of the ocean. The house is authentic and really cozy. I really liked the friendly staff who were helpful and polite, and I also fell in love with a cat named Oli, who lives here as well. We were hugging and observing local lizards together during the evenings. Since there are only three rooms for tourists in the complex, you feel not like you're in a hotel, but rather as if you're in your own villa. I’m so happy that we chose to stay there and not in a big touristic hotel. Would definitely repeat it! And the breakfast also was tasty - we were aloud to order it for any time which was very comfortable for us. I also decided to buy shampoos, conditioners and lotions from the brand that was in our room - I found out that it is local and it is absolutely natural and smells amazing!

Booking online is always a bit of a gamble, but the Forest Lodge is exactly as promised. All the photos are legit and it is indeed a very cozy guest house a bit away from all the noise, except for the many animal sounds from the surrounding beautiful forest. What we valued most while staying there for 12 nights was first of all the outstanding kindness and helpfulness of the manager and his staff. We were even lucky enough to have been offered a dinner, which was absolutely fantastic. As mentioned, we were very happy with the ambient and the abundance of space in the room/studio. Siting on the balcony and drinking your favorite morning/evening drink while watching birds and fruit bats flying all around is as good as it gets. We were surprised how well the staff maintain clean and tidy rooms as well as the surroundings of the house. We were also a big fan of the in-house drinks fridge, which is self-service. The only thing that could see some improvement in my opinion is the kitchenette. It is useful, but very basic. The stove is painfully slow. A gas stove or induction plate would be a superb upgrade. For some people, it should be noted, that there is quite a walk to the beach. There is a small local beach, but it is not as nice as the main one in Beau Vallon and it is not extremely close either. That said, we had no problem walking every day and using the bus. There is plenty of bus stops all around and it is a good way to explore the island. From the lodge to the main road is about 8-10 minutes walk, and a further 1 minute to the bus stop and another 2 minutes to the closest shop. The local beach is around 10-15 minutes of walking and the Beau Vallon beach is around 30 minutes of walking. If this is a problem for you, rent a car. There is free parking at the lodge.

It was amazing. Helpful owners and great recommendations over things to do and see. Super warm welcome and were there to help for every little thing. I would definitely stay here again next time I visit.

Breakfast at the balcony with a beautiful view was the perfect way to start the day. The staff was very kind and helpful and everything worked smoothly. The hosts Nicole and Paolo are lovely people💛 The location was very good: near the beach and restaurants but still very peaceful. We had a standard room, which had everything we needed (AC worked great) and it was very clean. Strong recommendation!

The apartment was very clean, comfortable and really spacious. There are shops and restaurants nearby for getting food. The hosts were really pleasant and allowed us to shower before leaving for the airport.

Amazing view and set up. Host very kind

The staff is utmost friendly and super helpful. We had a nice room that was comfortable and clean. They offered us extra towels for when we wanted to go swimming and a breakfast to go as we needed to leave before the breakfast was being served, we really appreciated that. We also enjoyed a very nice dinner in the restaurant. We really had a lovely stay.

Excellent location not far from the beach. We were upgraded to a seaview room. One can have breakfast or dinner on the terrace with a view to the beach, the kitchen has all appliances ...

Jimmy the manager is the kind of host u want. Out to please and make one s stay comfortable

Location and the friendliness of the staff and how helpful they were, even when asking something extra late, they were able to provide it or found a solution for the needs.
