"Το ξενοδοχείο είναι πολύ άνετο και πολύ ευρύχωρο.Ήταν πραγματικά μια ευκαιρία να γνωρίσω πολύ καλούς ανθρώπους, που μου έδωσε την πρόθεση να παρατείνω την παραμονή μου."

"A really amazing location, fantastic views of the sea, and only a short distance (5 mins) by car to the famous Anse de la Perle beach. The apartments are fully equipped and the décor is lovely. Breakfast is an option if required."

"This is a beautiful and very quiet place very close to the beach (about 75 meters). Very clean and comfortable and I recommend that you reserve a room with a terrace so you can enjoy hearing the ocean while relaxing in your hammock. No TV but that adds to the feeling of relaxation. We ordered contintal breakfast (at an extra cost) which was brought to the room and it was really fresh and nice. If you want to go to Deshaies the bus stop is only about 200 meters from the gite (make sure you have the exact fee). Vasco and Sofia are excellent and warm hearted hosts and they can help you with transfer arrangements, recommendations for tours etc. We will definately come back!"

"Of three places that I stayed in Guadeloupe, the Caraib' Bay was my favorite. Each 'room' is really a half of a duplex with two floors, a small kitchenette, and a new, fairly spacious bathroom. As I recall, there were two or three single beds on the ground floor with upper floor being the master bedroom. (The only bathroom is on the ground floor -- in an ideal world I would put a small bathroom upstairs -- maybe at the next renovation:-)). There is also an outdoor patio area and a nice walk through the forest to the main area with the front desk, bar, breakfast area, and pool. It is a few minutes drive back to Deshaies so you definitely want a car here -- but just about everyone visiting Guadeloupe (unless you're on a cruise ship) is going to want a rental car. From the hotel it is only about a 5 -10 minute walk to the large beach (Plage de Grande Anse). The folks at reception are happy to make dinner reservations for you and have a couple of nice binders of activities and dining. My recollection is that the wifi was good but that you have to go to the office area to use it. I don't believe there were tv's anywhere (but I totally agree with that philosophy so didn't miss it). The hotel will also lend you snorkeling equipment. Free welcome drink, good breakfast (they will make you eggs for a very reasonable charge). They even packed me something for a day when I had to leave early. Let me also plug my two favorite restaurants in the area: Beach Wav' is right down at Plage de Grande Anse but note it is lunch only; La Kaz du Douanier is in the town of Deshaies (they do two seatings per evening -- definitely recommend a reservation)."

"We felt that we were a nuisance when we arrived at 1.30 on a Sunday. We knew we were early for checking in but we were hungry and wanted some lunch so we’d kept our luggage in our car so that we could eat. Upon arrival we were told in no uncertain terms that check in wasn’t until 2.00 and when we said we wanted to eat first we were told there were no tables. However somebody left so we took their table. There’s no porterage so we had to struggle down a very steep slope with our luggage, I’m 80 and my disabled friend is 73. My friend asked for a small jug of milk to take to our room as we had brought a kettle plus tea and coffee with us, there being nothing in the room and she was charged €1 for it. One morning we had an early start as we were doing some bird watching and being picked up at 6.45 so we asked for a couple of sandwiches to take with us as we left before the breakfast started and got back after it had finished. We were told No but on departure we’d been charged €12 for it even though we didn’t get it and had paid for bed and breakfast anyway. There were no toiletries in the bathroom just some shower gel in the shower room. Would not recommend even though the grounds are beautiful and well maintained and the rooms are clean with a comfortable bed. Food also very mediocre. We definitely felt they did not like the English and apart from one member of staff, a very nice and helpful gentleman who spoke some English, we were not made to feel at all welcome."

"We enjoyed an incredible week in March 2024 at Ecolodge Piton Bungalows and we’d highly recommend this lovely bungalow-style hotel to anyone. My daughter and I stayed in the Zen Lodge with its own hot tub. The open-air kitchen, dining and living area made for easy breakfast and snack preparation or reading/relaxing in the hammock and enjoying the views. At 300m, there was always a nice breeze to mitigate the heat and humidity of Guadeloupe. The bed was very comfortable and we used the mosquito netting (but didn’t really notice any mosquitos) and the shower was lovely as was the swimming pool. The free washing machine and dryer helped to dry towels and swimsuits quickly after a day at the beach. The location is perfect, up a curvy hill about 2.5 km from the Plage de Grande Anse, one of the most spectacular beaches in Guadeloupe, from where there is an easy hike to the adjacent Plage de la Perle, nearly deserted the day we swam there. Valérie kindly lent us snorkeling gear and she and Matthieu had helpful tips to make our stay extra memorable. We really enjoyed “Basse-Terre” and mostly stayed within about 40 km of our gîte because there is just so much to do in that part of Guadeloupe. We really enjoyed our boat excursion with Blue Lagoon including snorkeling and the mangrove tour, our kayaking and snorkeling adventure at the Réserve Cousteau (we rented kayaks from Kristal Kayak at Plage de Malendure), our visit to the thermal baths in Bouillante, the Jardin Botanique in Deshaies, the waterfall swimming hole at Cascade aux Écrevisses, and a hike on Grande-Terre at Pointe de la Grande Vigie. The food was wonderful, whether we went to an open-air beach cafe, a food truck or a finer restaurant. Of particular note for unforgettable dining were “La Kaz du douanier” in Deshaies and “L’Exotic brefort Lamentin guadeloupe” in Lamentin. It is pretty essential to have a rental car to get around, and we speak French (although we’re American), which was very helpful although some Guadeloupéens have working knowledge of English. Frankly it was refreshing not to encounter many Americans. Guadeloupe is not overrun with tourists although some beaches and parking lots were busy, but you don’t encounter the “all-inclusive” resort/Spring Break party types at all in this wonderful French “département outre-mer.”"
