was Le Tropical previously a ***** (don't misinterpret the stars ) hotel ?

photos don't really look on that level to me.

I don’t think it ever was 5 star, & certainly not in recent memory.

Is this up the hill on the right when walking to the VSJ?

yep

From what I saw, parking may be a challenge there. I didn't see a lot of spaces, and they have both rooms and a good number of restaurant seats which will all require parking. I'm fine with using a Valet service if they offer it though.

Those prices don’t match my memory of the place. Must be a hell of a remodel.

A total re-build. “Remodel” isn’t in the equation.

Practically speaking, Kevin . . . only valet parking.

I think it looks wonderful - definitely an upgrade to what was before!

They offer valet service and we used it today coming for a lunch. Valet was fast but there were just us.

A secret garden. I really enjoyed our lunch there.

Our villa is right up the hill. Will give it a try soon. And no valet parking needed!!!

We did a walk through yesterday. It is absolutely stunning. The color scheme of the decor is beautiful, we were in awe and kept saying “wow!”. The outdoor seating in the back garden was serene and peaceful and there was a large bar off to the side. The pool and lounges looked lovely also with a nice view of the bay. The woman running the place, didn’t catch her name, was so nice and friendly. Had we not been in our hot travel clothes we would have had lunch. Will be going for lunch soon.

We also liked the setting and the lunch was super too. Yes, I agree with your thinking to try to get back.
