This was our first trip to Dominica. My husband is a diver, while I tag along to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery. We were not disappointed with any aspect of this trip. Dominica is a beautiful island, with very friendly and gracious people and stunning scenery. We chose this part of the island because my husband wanted to dive with Nature Island Divers in Soufriere, which he would highly recommend to everyone.
Our second story sea view room at the Evergreen was directly over the ocean and we went to sleep every night with the calming sound of the ocean waves. The sunsets from our balcony were to die for. The rooms and bathrooms are clean and spacious enough. The swimming pool is private with great ocean views. The restaurant is located right on the ocean, had a nice menu, very reasonable prices, friendly service, and live entertainment on Friday evening.
Other reviewers had mentioned excessive noise from a local bar, but it was only on one weekend night that we heard music into the morning hours. The hotel owner, Jennifer has been working on resolving this issue, and seems to have gotten favorable results.
We would absolutely recommend The Evergreen Hotel to anyone traveling to Roseau, although if it's the large resorts that impress you, look elsewhere. For an intimate, friendly boutique type inn, look no further.

I stayed here for a week in August and the hotel staff were so helpful and friendly.
I had one day off on the weekend and I asked them what I should do, so they contacted some people they knew and organised a trip round the island for me!
The hotel itself was fine for what I needed, I was in the block near to the road and it was really quite, even when the club across the road was going, I slept soundly every night.
And the food was lovely. Great restaurant with views out over the Caribbean Sea.

My husband and I stayed at the Evergreen during the second half of our visit to Dominica. We had travelled down from the North to the South in order to dive at Soufriere with Nature Dive so booked a package with the Evergreen.

The hotel is situated right on the seashore (the sea laps up against the side!) and the hotel restaurant had the greatest view of the bay. The food at the hotel is sublime and the rum punch is knock-out (literally in one case!). We did eat at other hotels, but Evergreen's menu is much better.

The room was very clean and had a lovely balcony - perfect for us to sit and watch the sunset as well as drying our dive gear of course!

The pool and surrounding areas were spotless and staff always had a smile ready for you.

We hired a jeep and drove every morning to nearby Soufriere (journey took about 30 minutes) for our diving with Nature Dive who were excellent. We enjoyed the diving in the South - it was good to do both North and South as the geology is very different. The dives in the South are spectacular with sheer walls and of course the champage reef.

Castle Comfort, as with much of the South West Coast, has suffered from coastal erosion and the area is expecting regeneration activities to commence soon, which will be good as the businesses are suffering from a lack of access to the sea. Roseau is great to walk around, we spent our last day exploring.

We had read the previous post about the "nightclub from hell" located a few yards from the hotel and of course were concerned, having already booked the room. During our five night stay, we were disturbed once for three hours by the loud music. It's impact affects all the hotels in the area, as well as the residents. The hotel manager has been active in complaining to the nightclub manager, police and the local tourism representatives to attempt to get the situation improved and judging by our experience, it appears to have worked. It wouldn't put us off staying there again.

For three days of my stay, I was very pleased with the Evergreen hotel and my opinion concurs with some of the other reviews on Trip Advisor. This is a pleasant hotel with nice views of the bay, friendly staff and a good restaurant. However, the experience of the fourth day ruined our stay.

Whilst normally a quiet, tranquil place, Evergreen is located next door to the Island's largest outdoor Reggae Club. We live in New York City and are used to a dealing with some noise, especially on the weekend; however this level of noise here was something completely different. The deafening music started at 8pm and continued to 6.30am in the morning. The bass was so loud. the windows in the room started vibrating. I tried to block out the sounds from the club by putting on my Bose noise cancelling headphones and turning on some some more mellow tunes on my ipod. Even with ipod on maximium volume I could still hear the music from the night club. Most of the guests in the hotel left during the night, I think we were possibly the only people who made in through till morning.

If you're staying here when the club is open (Fridays and some Wednesdays) then you can expect to get absolutely no sleep. We were so tired the next day we had to cancel our divings plans for the next day and basically lost a day of our vacation.

I did try and complain to management of the hotel but they were unresponsive. Initially the assistant manager suggested we would be compensated but at check-out, the manager told us the noise wasn't there fault and there would be compensation.

Its completely incompatible to have an all-night club next door to a supposedly quiet hotel. One of them has to go. Unfortunately for Evergreen Hotel, it looks like to club is winning and is going to send the Evergreen hotel out of business.

Until the club next door is closed, I can only recommend AVOID THIS HOTEL AT ALL COSTS. Such as shame as the hotel was potential to be a delightful place to stay.
