Fantastic Place!
After a long day I need a good and comfortable bed and I got just that. The wi-fi was fantastic! Rhinos are mingling around in the buildings.

Nice and comfortable hotel
Marlin Lodge is a very nice small hotel in beautiful St.Lucia. The location is good, its close to restaurants and other places of interest in St Lucia. The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the breakfast had everything that you can wish. We got a lot of information about St Lucia when we arrived which was very good for us. The stay was in total very good!
The only minus was that we could feel a bit of "old time rasicm" when one of the hosts started to talk about locals and black people in a negative way. We are a mixed family, with white and black colours and we do never accept when people talk about colour connected to "personal characteristics".

Super séjour
Excellent accueil et disponibilité d'Isabel. Elle a pris tout son temps pour répondre à nos questions et nous donner ses bons plans pour profiter au maximum de région.
Elle a réservé pour nous les activités (sans commission).
La chambre familliale était parfaite, excellente literie et lit double. xxl
Petit déjeuner super pris en terrasse au bord de la piscine.
Bref un maginifique séjour. Ce petit hôtel familial n'est pas dans "la" rue principale du village mais un tout petit peu à l'écart, c'est très calme. A recommander sans hésiation.

Nous avons passé deux nuits dans cet hôtel très bien situé. Il est dans une rue calme à proximité du centre ville. Le petit déjeuner est parfait. Par contre, nous avions réservé une suite à 2 chambres et avons eu une chambre avec un lit double et un lit superposé. La chambre ne correspondait donc pas à celle escomptée.

Safe and quiet.
Quick and informative check in telling us about local attractions. Rooms are clean, quiet and safe. Local restaurants are great as too the breakfast at the lodge. We would definitely stay here again!

Recommend
nice lodge, good breakfast, wifi access in the room, helpful and kind owner,
Although we were alone, bathroom was shared, outside of the room. A lodge a bit far from the city centre.

Great base for exploring the wetlands
Marlin Lodge is clean, comfortable, and spacious. Our family unit had two bedrooms. The rooms are fairly basic but well-equipped and functional. Breakfast by the pool was excellent. The owners made us feel at home and took care of all our needs. It's a great base to explore Cape Vidal and the wetlands park with lots of hippos and crocs. It's walking distance into the main town area with lots of restaurants and shops. Would definitely recommend this place.

Nice place with great pool
Very nice quiet place with great swimming pool. Friendly welcoming owners. Waitress at breakfast with a smile, except for the headwaitress who was extremely unfriendly (each time we asked her a little thing, like some eggs or mushrooms or whatever at breakfast; she made her understand that she was unhappy to do it with her attitude and huffing and puffing - i would get rid of her quickly as she is not making guest feel welcome at all).

Boring place
The only thing was good for the place was their staff 3 ladies and breakfast was wonderful . No Tv to kill time when you inside can't even watch the morning news in bed😡. Have to check out 1 day earlier, because we can't handle the noise from our next door neighbors when they using the bathroom. Their bathroom light can come through our bedroom from the bottom of their pathway door..
