My family and I stayed at Acajou Hotel for 5 nights. Very friendly staff and a quick 2 minute walk on to the beach to swim in the sea and watch the turtles lay their eggs. Great breakfast and also had lunch and dinner at the restaurant which was also good.

The beach and river were lovely. The sheets were cotton and comfortable. The bed was nice. The bathroom was clean. There is no A.C but the place is well ventilated and cool. The place can be fenced a bit better and I find it overall overpriced. 5 star hotels are priced like that and this is 3 star.

Positives: Wonderful staff, lovely dinner and huge delicious breakfasts. I've stayed at this property on two other occasions in the years past. Although the rooms were clean, clearly there were signs that deeper cleaning along with upgrades are definitely needed. The grass on the outdoor was cut neatly, but again more maintenance is needed.

It was a rustic, elegant place. The restaurant was great. The rooms were ok, but being rustic they weren't the cleanest and we thought the room would have an AC but it didn't. One of the fans wasn't working but they were able to get it temporarily working for us.

My husband and I celebrated our third anniversary at Acajou. It was amazing! It was peaceful, quiet and beautiful. Our Cabin was lovely and clean with the wonderful view of the river and ocean. The hammock was wonderful and relaxing. We even got a treat as we were able to see two leather back turtles during an early morning walk on the beach. The food was oh so delicious! Dinner was just fabulous. Staff were very attentive and helpful. I am so happy we decided to visit and I definitely would like to return.

Sure, here’s the English translation: A Peaceful Nature Paradise – My Stay at Acajou Hotel My stay at the Acajou Hotel in Grande Riviere was beautiful and relaxing. The property feels like a tropical garden with coconut palms and lush vegetation. I especially loved the charming, separate wooden cabins, which offer plenty of privacy and come with balconies and hammocks – perfect for unwinding. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-equipped, with mosquito nets ensuring a restful sleep. From the dining area, you could watch hummingbirds – a magical experience! The hotel is beautifully situated by the river and offers access to the nearby beach. However, the path to the beach was a bit challenging due to obstacles like a fallen tree. I also would have loved to see more fruit-bearing plants like papayas in the garden. Despite these small issues, Acajou Hotel is a tranquil retreat, ideal for nature lovers and anyone seeking relaxation. I’d happily return!

I love the property, waking up to nature was just what I needed. Was a bit concerned, as the locals walk through the property as a short cut to and from the beach. Questioned my safety being that the latch on the back door wasn’t the most sturdy. Another, concern was the path to the beach wasn’t in the best condition, cleanliness, clear path. Had to request for my room to be clean as the dust on the fans, table, and behind the toilet started to thicken and caused my allergies to flare up. Also, there was mold in my refrigerator. I mention these mishaps not to condemn Acajou hotel but as constructive criticism to do better. All the issues were rectified by a wonderful house keeper named Natasha. She extremely thorough at her job. While I’m mentioning staff, I can not forget, Jada, my breakfast server who always went above and beyond. And then there was Kim, who kept everything running smoothly. I’m so happy I found this hidden gem. My new home away from home💙

Kim and Kelly thank you so much for your kindness and care. Excellent service daily and the food was outstanding. Compliments to the chef! The coconut bake and buljol (salt fish), the coconut cream king fish is still lingering on my taste buds. This place offers peacefulness, and quiet surrounded by nature was surreal. However, the invitation to share a birthday meal with (curry chicken and goat) with their friends and family! Unforgettable! Thank you so very much and see you again!

A serene and picturesque location, with views of garden, river and beach. Saw nests of turtle eggs. The restaurant meals were lovely. The only downside was that the rooms can be warm at night. I understand that is being sorted. Wooden interior walls can attract more dust etc, which needs to be addressed. Bats, bug screens etc, often require regular attention. Overall, a lovely place to stay and enjoy nature.

Acajou means mahogany and when you visit the place you would see why. The craftsmanship in the buildings is so beautiful. The staff is friendly and accommodating (special mention to Lizann) and the food was delicious. It's not located exactly on the beach but it's on the same side so you get views of the beach and it's only about a3 minute walk to reach the water. The beach itself is a long beach with medium waves so nice to bathe in and those who are interested in turtle watching, the guides are just about two buildings down. All in all the experience was great so I would recommend them.

We thoroughly enjoyed our three night stay at Acajou. The reason for visiting was to see the Turtles and this certainly didn’t disappoint. We were privileged to go on a night walk where we saw females laying eggs and early morning we also could see Turtles. The beach is a very short walk from the hotel through the hotel gardens. Our cabin had a super view over the lagoon to the sea and a spacious deck to relax on. The room itself was extremely comfortable and the restaurant served delicious food. All the staff were friendly and cheerful and made our stay very special. The road to the property was a little challenging but that all added to the adventure. We had a great time.

Acajou offered exactly what my wife and I needed for a short staycation. A few minutes walk to the beach which walks more of having your own private getaway. The food was home cooked and delicious. Very friendly and courteous staff who were more than accommodating. We had the ability to see nesting turtles from our hut! Will be rebooking and recommending. Thank you Acajou!
