Really good Dining Experience

The food at Bel Jou was absolutely fantastic! We mainly dined at the Verandah Buffet restaurant, where the views were amazing and the atmosphere was inviting. I enjoyed a variety of local dishes, fresh salads, and delicious meat options for lunch and dinner. The breakfast omelets were cooked to order and always hit the spot!

Enjoyable Entertainment Options

I must say, the evening entertainment was a delight! I particularly enjoyed the live music performances, which added a lovely vibe to our dinners. The roof terrace was a perfect setting, and there was always something fun happening, like traditional dancing and fire shows.

I had a fantastic time at the Bel Jou, set on a stunning hillside with beautiful gardens. The rooms were spotless and very comfortable, with lovely views. The staff truly made my stay memorable; they felt like family. While the steep hill made walking to town challenging, the shuttle service to nearby beaches and attractions was very convenient. The dining experience was excellent with a variety of options, and overall, I believe it offers great value for money.

The Bel Jou hotel provided a wonderful getaway with exceptional views over Castries. The staff members were incredibly welcoming, making our stay feel special, while the well-kept pools offered a relaxing spot to unwind. While the dining options could be limited at times and dining experiences varied, overall, it was a memorable trip. I would say the location on a steep hill was both a pro and con, as we enjoyed the views but it's not a place I would want to walk back from Castries after a long day.

Bel Jou offers a unique and charming experience with its adults-only vibe and a peaceful atmosphere. The rooms are comfortable and well-equipped, while the staff provides exceptional service that truly makes you feel at home. However, the dining options could be improved, particularly in terms of variety at the buffet. The location on the hill provides beautiful views, but the many stairs can be a challenge for some guests.
