The location and the staff created the difference. The staff (especially Millie from the reception) was going the extra mile to help us arrange our tours, and celebration moments and very polite and positive staff. We stayed during the new years eve and it was fabulous! Right next to the famous Beau Vallon beach which was just so amazing. Good amount of food options in various restaurants within and outside of the hotel. Strongly recommended!

The hotel is a little bit outdated but it is still functional. They’re renovating it but it didn’t bother us during the stay with noise or anything. Overall, very good experience.

The proximity to the beach, basically on the beach, is awesome. We were there for relaxation only, so served our purposes perfectly. The majority of the staff were very friendly and those that weren't were simply efficient just not overly friendly, so no criticism of the remainder. The Hotel bar is located next to the beach and gives you the opportunity for some stunning sunsets as long as it's not raining ;-) Food is also served to you at the hotel bar from all restaurants within the hotel which makes it real easy if you just prefer to stay outside all night. The staff at the hotel bar were all excellent and I would particularly call out Andrew, MK & Janith as being very attentative, efficient and super friendly. Sampath, I believe, an F&B assistant manager also made us very welcome.

The rooms have seen better years. We were in one of the honeymoon suites with a balcony directly overlooking the beach and the ocean which truly is wonderful. A cool beer on that balcony in the evening was something to look forward to every day ;-) However, they are definitely in need of some refurbishment. I'm not sure if I would have been entirely happy if it had actually been our honeymoon. Nevertheless, the room was always clean, has tea/coffee making facilities and a fridge which helps counter the rather pricey cost of a beer in the hotel bar. Hotel bar prices consistent with prices outside the hotel but you can't beat the prices from the supermarket.

Great location, staff are very friendly. Rooms very clean, food great.

The system they have for f&b payment is annoying. We paid a deposit and charged to our room at meal times but they clearly don’t use this as normal practice so we were doubted every time we tried to do it. I don’t want to carry cash/ cards in the hotel constantly but I hated being questioned whether I was telling the truth that I could charge to my room multiple times a day. I even got accused of not paying on the first evening as they thought I hadn’t left card details with reception. It was humiliating and there was no apology.

A fantastic and memorable stay!! (British couple, 30 years old) After reading a few reviews this hotel really surprised us! Me and my partner are quite active and wanted a nice hotel that wasn’t overly expensive, as we weren’t planning to spend everyday at the pool/beach. However on the days we did spend at the beach/pool it was lovely thanks to the friendly staff! Special and massive shout out to this amazing team… Shivraj the manager and the bar staff.. Wellem, Jovan, Hari, Denilson, xx Monica xx, Ezra, Jessica, Shareen and Lovely!! These people made our stay so special and we’re always pleased to see us!! thank you very much!! Pool was a lovely temp and although the pool beds are limited they are comfy. (I did get up early about 7/7:30am to get our towels on the bed ASAP!) The service by the pool and bar was very good, the staff are so friendly and really made us feel special! Coral Strand hotel has the best beach front out of all of the hotels along that beach! It was always clean, always enough beds, stunning sunset if your lucky enough with the weather! Me and partner walked along this beach everyday it was beautiful! The hotel put on a special do on the beach I is night with cocktails music and food.. they posted our invitation through the door. That was a nice touch! Thank you! Breakfast was good, omelette station, bacon, beans, pancakes, waffles, fruit, porridge, yoghurt, breads and pastries etc. Brewed coffee and tea, no cappuccinos/lattes included! Food recommendations for lunch at the pool.. chicken shawarma wrap and fries was my fav, chicken club sandwich, bbq chicken wings and pizzas are very good! We didn’t eat dinner at hotel as we opted for breakfast only. Rooms…We had the ocean view room which was lovely, could hear the sea waves crash every night. The room was clean and comfy with a balcony looking straight at the sea!

As the reviews are saying, the hotel needs a refurbishment If you are renting a car you should be aware that the road from Victoria to Beau Vallon is not an easy one to drive

One of the best things about the place was the staff - they were all amazing and always helpful. Millie, at the reception, was so kind with all of us and my daughter absolutely loved her. It made the stay really even more special!
