Was given and have it on hold a HOTEL size room. How small of a room is this. A little bit unsure about taking it even though its hubby and myself. We usually go with either a studio or one bedroom at the Divi or Sapphire. It has been several years since we have stayed at LaPlage and then it was a one bedroom. Any help??

We have stayed at La Plage 3 times, so I'm sure there will be others with more experience who will chime in. However not aware there are any hotel rooms st La Plage. Most are studio's,1 bed and 2 beds. What might be offering to you is the lock out bedroom of a 2 bedroom. The 2 bed is an "L" shaped unit with 2 openings off the outdoor hallway. One door leads to the equivalent of a one bed, the other outer door leads to the 2nd bed. There is a connecting door to the 1 bed unbit, which could / would be locked. We rented such a 2 bed this winter, the lock out bedroom has a window which overlooked the road, the lock out bedroom itself was quite large, with 2 double beds and an ensuite. No outside sitting area and the window is of the road

I would clarify what is meant by a hotel room

There are rooms classified as hotel rooms (also called Studios) at Royal Islander La Plage. Click Here to see a map of the layout and you will see rooms 1202-1205. Those are the rooms called hotel/studio rooms. We have books those twice through RCI exchanges and by luck, they have assigned us 1 bedrooms since we were there for the week.

There are also a pictures of the hotel/studio room at VRBO that someone is renting out.

The pictures from VRBO are from La TErrace...not LaPlage. LaPlage is probably one of the best places to stay on the island..... If it's only two of you, the studio would be fine.....

Hi, too me a hotel room is a bed and a bathroom. The studio units definitely have a kitchenette – so I wouldn’t describe them as a hotel room. RI La Plage web site describes them as studio’s and lists the amenities which includes a kitchen – the web site does not call then hotel rooms.
There was a previous thread that I think had the same topic, someone was offered a hotel room at La PLage and there was some discussion whether it was in fact going to be the 2nd bedrm of a 2 bed lockout or ?, hence my previous comment to double check to make sure exactly what you would be getting. Better to be informed.
If its a studio unit, ground floor. Nice garden view and instant access to the grounds, pool etc. Ed is right, nice ts, well looked after

No kitchen. Just a sleep two. And, of course, RCI doesn't really have or give you information until you check in. Thus, I think I will pass on this.
