So I thought I would try to do this before I start day drinking today.
First off, let me say both are very nice. Very modern And well thought out trying to do this on voice chat so bear with me. Ok even my own phone can't understand me so back to fat fingers on a little key pad. There are a few obvious differences between the 2 for me anyway.
Karibuni adults only no kids and only couples more privacy and a superior breakfast but you are not directly on ocean but are provided transfer to pinel and beach chairs. Easy parking and gated community. The rooms are a good size with nice bathrooms and kitchenette outside space is awesome with great views.
Bleu Emeraude I give a slight advantage on rooms. Frederick yesterday gave us a look at the 4 different types as 5 rooms had a turnaround. So we have the only 2 bedroom top floor and there are 4 one bedroom on bottom floor but you don't have much privacy and if me or Scuba are your neighbors you could be in for a rough stay. The 2nd floor has 2 efficiency rooms and 2 one bedroom. On the 3rd floor we have 1 bedroom on both sides. I'm will include a picture of the bottom floor outside area you be the judge

There is a 2nd floor area for coffee and pastries advantage here goes to Karibuni we ate all day on the food they provided us.
Parking is available at BE but during rush if you parked head 1st can be a pain to back out so you need to back into Parking spot which can also be a challenge

There is nothing close by at Karibuni to get a quick lunch or dinner you have to drive but on Pinel they do have an awesome restaurant.

Bleu Emeraude many options to eat close by.

So the bottom line which did we prefer band

Both I actually booked a week at each for next Christmas
My wife really enjoyed switching to a new place she said it felt like 2 different va actions. We liked doing Karibuni 1st and Bleu Emeraude 2nd
and will do the same next only twist will the premium suite with large pool
at Karibuni and a 3rd floor 1 bedroom at Bleu Emeraude
