After reviewing what seemed to be an inordinate number of bad reviews about the location I had considered cancelling my reservation. However, my experience at the Pearl Hotel was absolutely wonderful. The room was beautiful, and the patio and its view were breathtaking. The beachfront restaurant was perfectly situated and the breakfast was absolutely perfect. The beach of course is stunning with the added excitement of flights taking off overhead which is exciting, especially for the kids. The staff took very good care of us, even offering us a complimentary bottle of champagne on Christmas Eve. The entire property was beautiful, giving you the sense of walking through a tropical forest. The hotel is perfectly located, minutes by foot from the legendary Nikki Beach, a nice thirty-minute walk to the bustling and trendy city of Gustavia and a nice thirty-minute walk to the surfer’s paradise: L’Oriente Beach. You can of course rent a car but getting in that morning stroll is also perfect. Highly recommend this hotel.
