Deshaies Romantic Hotel

"Our beach bungalow was just perfect. Very private the only people walking by were other guests in the other bungalows. We had breakfast included always a lot of fresh choices. The same with dinner. We eat dinner 4 nights and the menu was always different. The only thing I might say negative was we weren’t told that you need to put one of your room keys in the card slot inside the room to get the electric to come on. Once figured out all was great. "

"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."

"Beautiful property with nice facilities around the pool. Breakfast was plentiful but choices don’t vary much. Well kept, comfortable beds, clean, gorgeous scenery. Need car to visit islands and to get to beaches, restaurants, etc."
