La Toubana Hotel & Spa

- Baby
- Toddler
- Kid
The only five-star address on Grande-Terre, perched above the sea near Sainte-Anne with a clifftop infinity pool and a small private beach in the cove below. It is more romantic and refined than a big kids resort, but it welcomes younger families into its bungalows and villas, and the calm Sainte-Anne lagoon is minutes away.
Our verdict
For parents of one or two young children who want a beautiful, calm, upscale base and do not need a kids club, this is the special-occasion choice. Book a villa with a private pool.
The rooms
Garden bungalows, suites and private villas set on a clifftop with sweeping sea views, some with their own plunge pool. Bungalows take two adults and a young child, so this suits couples and small families more than big groups.
