  Awful hotel

  Marigot bay is beautiful however there is nothing to do there. You spend a lot of dollars on taxis to escape it. Marigot bay beach club and dive resort is awful. It’s very very tired, needs pulling down and starting again. It boasts about the connection with Doolittle film which was made in the 60’s (I guess when this hotel was built). Our room 51, was accessed over steep steps with pipes going across (which at night was in darkness we had to use a torch). It felt as though we were being put in staff accommodation. The room itself was dark and dingy. The furniture had seen better days, with ill fitting drawers and chips and scratches all over. The taps over the kitchen sink were extremely wobbly. The microwave for some reason had been put above the dirty extractor fan (which didn’t work) you had to be 7ft tall to be able to use it. God help you getting anything hot out of there without scalding yourself. The toilet door banged against the toilet when you opened it, there was a crack in the sink and no hot water for days. The balcony door never felt secure and handle was filthy. The views were lovely but the noise from the beach was deafening at times and there appeared to be a rave on a Sunday night that didn’t finish til midnight, so not much sleep that night. We eventually got moved to a room up the hill, still tired but a million times better than 51. We had booked breakfast and dinner but were told that several items on the menu weren’t included in our ‘meal plan’ it made us feel like second class citizens. We complained and they accepted we could have all on the al a cart menu. The breakfast was poor, the cereal choice was fruit loops or some apple cereal that looked horrible. The hot water for the tea was way above your head and was again very dangerous. Service in the restaurant was slow sometimes waiting an hour for a meal. You could see the kitchen which was not exactly clean and looked chaotic. The Nook shop ‘for all your provisions’ consisted of Pringles and a couple of ‘t’shirts. The dive centre had closed down years ago and there was no hot tub as advertised. The pool was not easy to get into and had lots of cracked or missing tiles. The staff on the whole were very sweet but looked exhausted and didn’t want to be there (who can blame them). St Lucia a beautiful island but this hotel was very very disappointing.

  3 stars for a 3 star hotel

  This hotel is a curate's egg, it's good in parts. Food was good except for the breakfast which, although we went B&B was only a rather poor continental; you had to pay extra for a proper meal. The staff were very good and the location is stunning. But it's all getting a bit tired, the rooms were fine but little things like loose loo seats and wobbly taps take off the shine. There are three pool tables in the bar, all well worn out and not even level. There is a 'sunset bar' area which is effectively derelict. The bar is called Doolittles, based on the fact that the film was shot in the bay years ago and there are some faded photos around but it's all scruffy and worn. We only discovered after a few days that the rooms are only cleaned once every other day, which surprised us and the reception closed on Sundays which we found very odd. All in all we had a pretty good week there, mainly because of the food and the setting but we had to accept the limitations, mind you it is only 3 star so maybe we were expecting too much. Oh and to call it a 'dive resort' is completely misleading. There are no diving facilities there at all although reception will put you in touch with a local dive centers if you ask.

  Marigot in need of upkeeping

  The price is fair and the rooms are nice. When I have feedback on the beach being dirty the hotel took prompt actions and filled five large bags of trash. I also pointed out that the portable fire extinguishers have no tag indicating that they have had yearly inspection by a certified company, and some of them are empty. I also send message regarding that, but no answer. The rooms have no smoke detectors so bring your own. The boat is said to begin service at 7, but it is more about 7:30. Same with breakfast that is to be served from 8, it starts by 8.30. First thing you see arriving with the boat is a broken sun chair throwed along the shoreline, so the first impression is bad. Nevertheless, if they refill the portable extinguishers, keep the beach clean and remove the broken sun chair I will come again.

  Amazing resort.

  Where do i start. My fiancee and i just spent 10 absolutely amazing days here. I can only say that the negative reviews are totally against the grain. We arrived at the resort by taxi doolittles ferry transferred us to our our resort. We were in awe of the breathtaking view that awaited us. We checked in and went to our firefly studio. It was beautiful. Clean smelt lovely. We had room 51 a four poster bed fresh petals towels were placed on the bed. Then we seen the balcony. Wow what a view. We met the owner david on our first night. He's a lovely man with a lovely soul. We clicked instantly. He went above and beyond and took us out in his car on two occasions. We seen the whole of the island, he even took us to the supermarket. We had such laughs in the evening. This is a beautiful clean friendly resort and our bar tenders dillon and Glen were fantastic. So attentive and professional. We will be going again next year. Thankyou all for making our stay an amazing one. Love kat and Tony xxx

  Marigot Bay Beach 🏖️ Club - it’s a trip!

  Truly Idyllic setting for a romantic getaway, anniversary or honeymoon “dream vacation “ we spent the first week of our Summer 2025 in a St Lucia paradise island across the bay from dreamers and millionaires and every day was a new opportunity for adventures in ⛵️ sailing, snorkeling, kayaking and scuba diving 🤿 The food is great the people are so friendly and their service is impressive.
