Holiday Inn Oceanfront Review

The island's leading moderately priced hotel, and its oldest, with a history going back to 1970, this sprawling five-story building opens onto a crowded stretch of beach on the southern side of the island, directly across the road from the fast-food joints and souvenir shops of Coligny Plaza. The rooms are spacious and informally but comfortably furnished with rattan furniture and pastel colors. Unfortunately, the balconies are generally too small to actually walk out onto. Only a few of the rooms have actual sea views -- most of them have views over parking lots and trees. In summer, planned children's activities are offered. Don't expect glamour, as the place is comfortable, crowded, and family invasive, with a crowded pool and barely enough parking. The staff, despite the many demands on their time, are genuinely concerned and helpful.

Facilities:
Restaurant; outdoor bar; outdoor pool; exercise room; room service; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
