We stayed at the Beau Rivage for our Honeymoon on a half board basis. We upgraded to the honeymoon suite to ensure that our honeymoon was as special as it could be.



All staff at the hotel were very attentive, friendly and really just could not do enough for you.



The views were amazing and beach had beautiful white sand, it felt like paradise.



The food in the restaurant was a la carte and could not be faulted. The menu changed each evening and can only be described as 'posh nosh'.



However, we were disappointed to find that even though we were half board most dishes had a supplement to pay if you wanted them, and I am not talking a couple of pound either, for a main course it ranged from roughly £12 to £25 depending what food you were having.



The drinks were extremely expensive and there was no entertainment in the evening, apart from the same dancers 2 nights a week.



Overall we did have an amazing experience however, to be honest, I would not pay that kind of money again for a holiday as it was not fully worth it.

We were married here in December...

We were married here in December 2004, and yes we had a wonderful time. Patricia the wedding coordinator did a fantastic job in arranging everything, nothing was too much trouble for her.



The hotel itself is beautiful, and the pool magnificent, rooms are large and airy, but I have to say that they are not as opulent as in Thailand, Singapore or Dubai. The food is generally very good, but we were unhappy to pay a supplement to eat in some of the restaurants. The staff are wonderful and very attentive, but sometimes if you want a few quite moments, the relentless cosseting can be overpowering.



The scenery inland is not as beautiful as I thought it would be, lots of sugar cane fields, but we only spent 11 days here before we flew to Dubai for our honeymoon. All in all it was a very special holiday for us.

We went here for our honeymoon and had a fantastic time. The food was lovely and the service fantastic. The rooms were really nice with a massive bathroom with twin sinks and a sofa and satellite TV in your room.



The whole of the hotel had a lovely smell of vanilla. When we arrived we were greeted with a glass of champagne and we were also taken out on an escorted tour of the island a few days later. The beach was beautiful and staff would come over and clean your sunglasses and wipe you face with a face cloth luxury you certainly felt pampered. I have to say that it has been the best place that we have stayed in and we would definitely go back.



My husband went deep sea fishing and caught a tuna and the chef cooked it for him!! There is also a Chinese oriental style restaurant where the food is amazing i have never tasted food like it. Well worth a visit. Beach beautiful white sand and clear waters.
