Basse-Terre Hotel Guide - Hotels with Pool in Basse-Terre, Basse-Terre Island

"The setting by itself commands five stars: this spacious villa sits on a bluff just above a lovely, not-too-crowded beach, with the sounds of waves permeating day and night. A (steep) path leads down to the golden sand. If you enjoy privacy in a beachfront location, you're unlikely to find a better rental on Gwada.The villa itself is well-equipped and largely comfortable, especially the beds. But a few things could be more user-friendly. You take your life in your hands whenever you exit the gated drive in your car. Beach towels aren't provided, reinforced by stern warnings against using bath towels for the purpose, so either pack your own or run into town and pay inflated prices. The poolside loungers are of the uncomfortable, hard plastic variety. And some of the kitchen / dining gear (prep knives, corkscrew, wine glasses) came from a bargain store in a previous century.Aside from these inconveniences, we had a wonderful stay, with excellent communication by Franck and Aude, the local concierge. Definitely worth booking -- even if for the setting alone."

"Good staff, mountainous area. Near many beach and restaurant. Remember to put lotion repels mosquitoes"
