A laid-back resort on a pretty double bay near Deshaies, on the green Basse-Terre side of the island. It has a seasonal kids club, a children's pool and a calm beach, plus the rainforest, Grande Anse beach and the Deshaies botanical garden all close by, so it pairs beach days with proper nature outings.
Our verdict
Pick this if you want beach plus rainforest and do not mind a longer transfer. It is at its best in winter when the kids club runs. Book a beachfront bungalow.
The rooms
Rooms in the main building plus beachfront bungalows dotted along the bay, many steps from the sand. Bungalows suit families who want a bit more space and a terrace by the sea.
