We love the area! It is quiet and very peaceful. The beach and river are amazing! They do need to put some work into the villas as they are very out dated, the patio doors don’t lock properly and the louvered windows are missing glass in some areas. Overall, we had a lovely time!

This place has certainly gone down hill like a horror movie from the 70s scene dated furniture blood on curtain splatters from misquote swatting along with greece stains the bathroom had rusty facutes with missing cover plates oxidation on the door handles bathroom mixed matched tiles. Great location but this place needs a serious overall bottom line.For a big property like this it should have more amenities such as a pool and decent restaurant

I loved the beach. When I booked this property I asked Rashida for RECENT PICTURES, she responded via WhatsApp that the pictures on the website were the pictures of the rooms. We landed at Norman Manley at 12:30pm, picked up our rental car by 1:30pm and was on our way to Frenchmens Cove. We did not arrive until 8:30pm. It is a good idea to inform your guests that major construction is in progress and so do not drive the St. Thomas route. Upon arrival the Security handed us an envelope with a key and we proceeded to the room, unit 14. We could not believe how dated and unclean the place looked. In the envelope was a document which stated that we should take our toiletries, no food would be served, etc...Great time to tell your guests upon arrival. I appreciate the two tiny bar soaps and towel we received. Only two of the towels could be used, the white towels, face rag and shower rags were stained. There was no attempt to replace the towels or clean the room for the duration of our stay. We paid a premium cost for a very poor quality accommodation with no service. We had every opportunity to book elsewhere and visit the beach if we wished. We choose to book with Frenchman's cove because the Website suggested that the amenities were good. Certainly not a good value for money. We are very easy to please, not a prima dona at all but the room made us very uncomfortable.

The cottage was great and the overall property was green and eco friendly. However, the small 'garden' area at the back of the cottage facing the sea, needs attention and maintenance.

The place is beautiful but very old. The villa we stayed in was beautiful but bathrooms weren't the cleanest and there were alot of bugs. I believe for the price I paid the least there could have been is coffee in the room. You give a full kitchen with no plates, glasses or mugs. Kitchen is kind of pointless. I was quite disappointed with the experience considering it was quite expensive.

Liked the vegetation. However, the facilities are horribly run down and not maintained. No restaurant on site, and had to pay for beach chairs that were in bad shape. Will not return nor recommend it.

Frenchman’s is simply a beautiful property, and we will certainly be visiting again. The room needs a bit of TLC, but that pales in comparison to the atmosphere is offers.
