My wife and I spent our honeymoon at Cormier, and we loved every minute of our stay. We had great service, and ate delicious food. Our stay was very relaxing.

Don't even want to waste my breath, The Staff were doing their best with the conditions of their employments.

As a White person i felt terrible , the way the owner and his sibblings were towards the staffs.

First time in Haiti, but nevertheless : my next time will for sure not there.

Cormier Plage is probably one of the nicest hotels in Cap Haitien relatively speaking (not that there is much competition...).
The pros:
- good service for the most part (excepted for one time where our driver stood us up, but the owner gave us a bottle of wine to make up for it). The workers overall are very nice and very polite.
- excellent food
- great beach (although not really good for swimming because of the close reef, and alot of rocks at the bottom) with rooms with ocean view
- peaceful

The cons:
- we were overcharged on new year's eve. We ended up paying an additional US $99 per person for a buffet (no glass of champagne was included and you would have to spend over $100 for a bottle). We thought the new year's eve dinner was included in our package since we did not have the option to take the regular menu (normally included the other days).
- worst bathroom we ever stayed (old, all white tile, rare hot water if any / dripping water, floor always wet from the shower)
- the hotel was hard to reach in the first place for the reservation. Not all of our questions were answered before booking (such as what was included in the package, or the meals) in spite of several emails and calls attempts.
- although our driver was wonderful (the one that ended up replacing the driver that didn't show up), we felt that prices were high, especially for Haiti. My girlfriend is haitian and thought they were abusing and taking advantage of people visiting there. It's a shame because Haiti is a very nice country and this might discourage alot of people from coming back.
- some night time activities would have been nice, since the hotel is far from pretty much anything.

As far as recommending this hotel, I would probably say yes with some reservation in regards to pricing. Overall we had a wonderful vacation.

I was travelling with my boyfriend, who is Haitian, and a very dear friend of mine, who had never been to Haiti (or anywhere like it) before, and I really wanted my friend to see the beauty and potential in this singular country. Cormier Plage did exactly that. The beach is incomparable -- sandy and clean with the nicest waters I have yet experienced in the Caribbean -- and the hotel owns a small boat and provides snorkeling trips to nearby reefs and islands, a very enjoyable way to spend an afternoon. Rooms are huge, all with private porches or balconies facing the water, and although the linens and toiletries are not of the best quality, the spaciousness and comfort of the rooms more than make up for this. We spent very little time in our rooms at any rate, so these small deficiencies did not in any way lessen our enjoyment. Surrounded by lush vegetation and decorated with fresh flowers taken from the grounds, the structure that houses the bar and restaurant, along with a breezy, cozy sitting area was surprisingly elegant, which was a happy surprise. We spent every evening there,enjoying drinks, fresh air, and company; there were moments where it seemed that we were experiencing the best of all possible worlds. Perhaps most worthy of praise is the restaurant, which is rated as one of the top seafood restaurants in Haiti, no small feat. My friend had lobster every night and she and the boyfriend enjoyed their food so much, I was truly desolate that I am allergic to shellfish and could not share their gastronomic bliss. Breakfast and dinner are included in the rates, and they take your dinner order early to ensure that they are able to provide the freshest food possible, most of it taken straight from the sea in front of you by local divers armed with snorkels and small pikes. Also, I am a vegetarian (but eat fish, eggs, and dairy) and was never disappointed by my options or my food, which is rare in meat-loving Haiti. Meals were served by an impeccably trained staff; the manager (who speaks English fluently) and bar tender were similarly competent, friendly, and accommodating. What I loved best about Cormier was that although it appears to do a fair amount of business, it is generally quiet and relaxed; one never felt like just another touron flooding just another mass-production mega-resort. Nothing compares to this hotel, truly. It is worth the inconvenience of the dilapidated access road and in the end, we stayed an extra night before heading back down the coast to Port-au-Prince and my friend, who is well-travelled and had spent a week at a top-rated Hawaiian resort just the week before coming to Haiti, pronounced Cormier Plage to be her favorite vacation spot -- ever.
