Absolutely Stunning
This is everything we could have asked for, and more. Spacious, well appointed, totally and completely comfortable. Pool is amazing, the outdoor shower, outdoor Lanai, a beautiful kitchen, it goes on and on! The bed is very comfortable, linens and towels feel like home, not a rental. Beautiful garden, surrounded by flowering shrubs and numerous species of birds. A little bullfinch couple will greet you the moment you bring food to the table. I would caution against feeding them, however, they are already a little too familiar!
But the view! It is absolutely stunning! And our hosts are wonderful. This is a perfect place to experience the beauty of Martinique, the hospitality of the locals, and their wonderful adoption of French cuisine.
Caveats; as others have mentioned, the driveway is precipitously steep. I actually measured 26°, (sorry, it's the engineer in me) that's over a 50% grade! If you are not comfortable with steep slopes, be prepared to walk up the hill.
Yes, there are mosquitoes. If you are particularly sensitive to them, be prepared. They're much smaller, and I would say much sneakier than Canadian mosquitoes! That said, there is a lovely mosquito net on the bed which makes for a comfortable sleep. Just be sure you know how to close it properly!
Privacy is good, more than sufficient, but not 100%, just in case that matters.
Overall, however, I don't think I could imagine a better place to stay here, certainly not at this rate. I would absolutely return!
