Place itself is very nice in terms of setting and view but I found that I kept getting bitten by mosquitoes and the staff were not only not sympathetic but sometimes rude! So checked out of here and went to a simple beach hotel - no mosquitoes, 3 times cheaper and nice people. One to avoid

A gem of a hotel, one of the oldest on the island. Lovely gracious staff especially Peter. Ocean sounds through the night, view breathtaking. The people the owners have found to run the hotel are dedicated and go out of their way to be accomadating. Had gone there for daughters wedding and had no expectations what so ever, very happy with all indeed.

We spent 3 days in late August at the Manapany and will definitely be back. The hotel staff and management (family) were exceptionally attentive and accommodating. The room was very spacious, well appointed and the bed was very comfortable. The restaurant is excellent and a good value to boot. There were many other guests there but we felt as if we had the run of the place. We ate dinner in the restaurant and hung out at the pool bar at night. The next day the staff got us a rental car, and sent us off exploring the island beaches. The following day it was raining so we spent the day at the spa, which was excellent as well. When it was time to leave the owners drove us down to Gustavia to catch our boat.

There are lots of hotels on St. Barts, but if you want a comfortable, relaxing and family oriented atmosphere this is the place to be!

This hotel was an absolute dump. We were checked into a room with a leaky ceiling, no electricity, and ants. This hotel was bug infested and was very unkept. Every morning we would wake up early to the sounds of roosters. The staff was unfriendly and sleazy. Do not stay here; it's a one star motel.
