Such a special place. The house is very modern, with endless screened porches, outdoor lounges, a private pool, very spacious interior. It felt very secluded; we pretty much had the beach to ourselves. A short walk down a cobblestone path brought us to the beach and “the hut” - a lovely French restaurant where we had dinner almost every night. There were lounge chairs on the beach, stand up paddle boards, snorkeling gear to borrow. Patrice was such a great host - he picked us up in a 4wheeler at the ferry dock and arranged boat tours for us, drove us through the village, marked trails to hike. He gave us a history of the island and translated as needed. Do be sure to bring a cooler with food. The village has some shops, but they are more like mini marts, better for snacks and drinks than a full grocery run. The house has a well appointed kitchen so it’s nice to be able to cook. No need to bring water, the island has fresh well water that doesn’t need additional filtering. I definitely hope to come back; this was an amazing trip. Great for our family but would also be really fun with multiple couples- the four rooms are well separated, with large bathrooms and porches, more like suites, and an extra bunk bed room. Also a ping pong table/ exercise room. Such a special family vacation; the photos really don’t do it justice.
