Communication with Roland was friendly & responsive (and helpful for us as English speaking). He offered great suggestions for dining & travel.
The location is the best in the Iguana Bay (end villa with excellent privacy, expansive views of Grande Terre & La Disirade, Anse a la Gourde beach access).
Condition of unit is as pictured - very satisfactory vacation rental. Master bathroom shower has an enjoyable & unique "step down" feature.
Secure hurricane blinds with convenient buttons to close up when leaving for the day.
Large shaded porch area and ample seating throughout.
Secure access with gate remote and parking next to villa.
Functional & well equipped kitchen with dish & clothes washers. Drying rack included too.
Amazing views from the interior (kitchen & living room doors & windows swing open to let the breeze flow through the villa).
Proximity to many restaurants and attractions of Saint Francois area including Pointe des Chateaux (do the short hike to the summit)!
Friendly welcome by Marie Helene (who provided us with starter items).
Ear plugs are suggested for those light sleepers due to frogs singing in the night. Each bedroom is climate controlled (mini-splits), however, there are wooden louvers that do not filter the sound.
Overall it was a great experience. We stayed 12 nights. Colin & Keri (Colchester, VT - USA).

We rented the villa for a week and we were very satisfied with our choice. When we arrive to the villa Véronique gave us a warm welcome. She had buy bread, fruits and even a welcoming drink for us. The villa is facing the ocean so you have a spectacular view. It’s also 5 minutes walk to the beach and you can also walk in a trail until the end of Pointe des chateau. It’s a really nice easy hike and on the way you cross one of the most beautiful beach we’ve seen there. Véronique was always available to answer all our questions which was very appreciated. The villa had everything you need for cooking, they even have a grill outside for bbq and an outdoor shower which we used a lot. We absolutely adore our stay there and we would highly recommend this villa. We all wanna go back again. Thank you for our wonderful stay

Extraordinary place, two minutes away from a lush beach with good snorkeling. Great surf and kite surf beaches nearby. Amazing view from many angles on the property. Great amenities and great help from local host to greet, generously have some welcome food and drink on arrival and counsel us on our vacation. It doesn't get much better.

This smaller three bedroom villa has an unobstructed ocean view. The beach is a 5 minute walk, and is one of the best on the Island. Great for a family. 3 bedrooms en-suite arrangement provides privacy. The kitchen is well equipped with a pass through counter to the patio dining area. My compliments on the villa having salt, pepper, oil, vinegar and spices on hand, as most trips require we buy a pile of essentials which then go to waste.
The pool is small and about 1M deep throughout. Refreshing on a hot day, but small.
The living area is more than adequate, well equipped and has TV and stereo systems. They also had hundreds of DVD's in English.
Also note they have a very nice built in charcoal grill and outdoor shower. We used both. Golf course ($30-40) is 10 minutes away. Best grocery shopping at Mega Casino, shop for produce at market in town center. Many restaurants surround the yacht marina (10 minute drive). There are so many restaurants to pick from you will not have an issue. Try Le Metis or Chez Christine. Go to the park at Pointe des Chateaux (5-10 minutes away).
We felt Sainte Francois was the best location on Grande Terre. Upscale and quieter, but with all activities you could ask for in town. Good luck finding a parking space. Some of us liked Sainte Anne (20-30 minute drive, lots of shopping), I thought it too busy. Note that the roads and road system on Guadeloupe are among the best we have found on any Caribbean island.
If you decide to go to Basse Terre, it is about an hour and a half to two hour drive. I would add a couple days to your trip and stay around Deschaises. Basse Terre is night and day different (mountains and jungle rather than flat and dry). Breathtaking scenery, nice beach, wildlife etc. Makes for a long drive if you do it as a day trip.
Our agent, Veronika, was utterly charming and very helpful.
In all, the view and quiet beach at the end of the drive make this villa a winner. Would give this 5 stars with a bigger pool, all else is 5 star.
