The village was quaint and pleasant to stroll around, of course it was also the location for murders in paradise so we spent some time finding various filmed locations. We'll positioned with some of the best beaches within easy reach. Some of the restaurants were over priced for some very ordinary plates but some of the takeaway and lesser quoted eating places were excellent and good value.

Deshaies was pretty crowded at the time we were there. You need to make reservations in the restaurant to get a table. Savane restaurant was great with views of the sunset during dinner. Make sure to visit the botanical garden.

Quiet part of the island and the most beautiful!
Quiet part of the island and the most beautiful! Many gorgeous beaches, mountains and scenery. Can easily spend all our time there without going to other parts of the island. Water activities are plentiful and there are also lots of hiking available including climbing Mt. Soufriere! No need to eat at a restaurant - the food trucks serve really delicious food and the people working them are very friendly.

Lovely town, got to see all the set/filming areas of Death in Paradise, very friendly helpful locals, nice restaurants, pleasant town. Easy and close in the car to lots of lovely sights, Botanic Gardens, the volcano, ACTe Museum etc. We ate in La Madras where they film the programme and Chill which had huge ribs and Le Reflet (the nicest Poulet Colombo - chicken curry! and the chicken with vanilla). I would highly recommend to visit the Maison du Cacao - book your tour in English if you won't understand it in French.

I have not been to many Caribbean islands, but Guadeloupe,...
I have not been to many Caribbean islands, but Guadeloupe, and Deshaies in particular, is my favorite place so far. The area has wonderful natural beaches, simple places to drink and eat, and lovely nature. It is the polar opposite to all-inclusive beach resorts, in a good way. All beaches are accessible and free, the people were friendly, and it felt safe everywhere we went. Our list:
1. Beaches: Grande Anse, Cluny, La Perle, Leroux, Petite Anse, Malendur
2. Eat: Paradise Cafe, La Kaz, Le Madras, Karacoli, Le Fournil (patisserie)
3. Drink: La Croisiere (when there is live music), Le Madras, Karacoli
4. Activities: Snorkeling at Malendur and Ilets Pigeon (rent a kayak to get to the island), Botanical Garden, snorkeling at several other beaches to see turtles, surfing at Cluny beach, diving at Malendur or at Petite Anse.
5. Highlight1: Getting 2 bottle of beer at a local store run by a charming old couple, having the owner offer to open the bottles for us, and walking across the street to the beach and sit with locals to chat and watch the sunset.
6. Highlight2: Taking a snorkeling excursion boat ride to 3 snorkeling spots in Reserve du Cousteau.
7. Highlight3: Driving around the area, noticing Cluny beach, parking under a mango tree, watching the Point Break style waves crash along the beach, and walking on the golden sands and picking up just-fallen coconuts (and having a local guy show us how to tell if it was good or not).
8. Highlight4: Listening to a local band playing folk music on hand drums at LaCroisiere on Saturday night while a local guy reached into the cooler to get us beers and chat with us (volunteer waiter). He would let the owner know how many beers he got us every once in a while for us to keep up with the tab.

I loved the laid back, uncomplicated, village feel, and yet cosmopolitan nature of Deshaies. It's really small and stress free, and you get to know everything quickly. We bought excellent fresh fish and crayfish at the harbour, supermarkets have everything you need. Little boutiques to buy pareo and beachwear. Bought lovely scented tea. Restaurants nearby with lovely seafood, creole and simple dishes. Dining over the waves, we enjoyed L' amer Restaurant. And another restaurant with live music on Saturdays, Restaurant La Croisiére. Met artistic locals there, and people showed local dances. We also ate at La Madras, aka Catherine's Bar.
Thé house was just perfect for a couple with the great outdoor kitchen, very well equipped, super nice bathroom and very comfortable bed. the A/c worked perfectly and the extra touchés such as the jacuzzi and treats offered by Jacques our host were so nice to have. Everything was super clean, a quick little walk out the back and you arrive on the beach for sunsets or morning coffee… a dream location. Jacques, the owner, is extremely present and attentive to any questions. Would not hesitate to recommend his rental space.
I loved the view and the privacy. The sunset from the outdoor living space was my favorite part of the stay. Each night, we got a delicious meal from the lady who cooked at the road entrance to LeClerc and we sat on the balcony with some champagne and enjoyed the sunset over dinner. Well equipped kitchen for the small size. Some essential food items in cabinet like coffee, tea, salt & pepper, oil, even butter and some sauce. Comfortable bed with mosquito netting. Exceptionally clean.
What an amazing place, sad that our plane got cancelled and we stayed only one day instead of the three we had initially planned. But nevertheless the staff was incredibly nice, waited for us at night to give us a welcome and help us getting set-up. The place is absolutely beautiful, waking up in the morning with the sun rising over the ocean was absolutely stunning. We also got the breakfast that morning and loved it!
If we ever come back to Guadeloupe we'll for sure stay again :)
Excellent location to explore Bass-Terre in Guadeloupe. Quietly well equipped large house for which a lower deck and a higher deck is for rent (we had the upper deck). Lovely view of the nature and sea from a distance on a superb terrace.
The owners were extremely friendly, attentive and helpful with the check-in (keys, etc...). 2 separate bed rooms, very large living room and great terrace to enjoy breakfast accompanied by birds who loves bananas ;-)
This is a large and very well-equipped villa in an excellent location. We loved the pool, the covered outdoor dining area, the well-equipped kitchen and the large, comfortable bedrooms. There are lovely views of the sunset over the Caribbean. Deshaies is a short drive away, and there is a well-stocked convenience store at the garage about 200m away. A great location for exploring the sights of "Death in Paradise" (the UK TV show which is filmed nearby)
At the first look the location seems to be a bit dull because it is located directly at the main road and there is just a supermarket nearby. But in the end, I think it is much better than Deshaies, because Plage de la Perle is within walking distance (10-15 minutes) and it's also possible to walk through a nice pathway to Plage de Grande Anse. Several food options and a craft brewery are also within walking distance.
The breakfast was home made with lovely bread cakes and jams. There was usually an egg based cooked plat, freshly made and served piping hot, which we really appreciated. We didn’t realise that inevitably the holiday accommodations are mostly inland from the coast road In this part of Guadeloupe. However there were a lot of lovely beaches within a short drive and we toured the Basse Terre island a lot during our stay.
The housekeeping was very efficient and done early every morning.
The delightful ladies at reception were very friendly and helpful.
Staff at the restaurant were welcoming and efficient.
We went on three good excursions organised by the hotel which we enjoyed very much.
We enjoyed swimming and walking on the beaches by the hotel, and the hotel was ideally located to visit interesting parts of the island.
Comfortable room and facilities within easy walking reach of Deshaies. Facilities are as advertised with a super friendly host Murielle who gave us lots of tips on where to go and provided a great breakfast each day. Loads of bits and pieces provided which meant if you’d forgotten anything it really didn’t matter, this was unexpected in a bed and breakfast and went over and above expectations.
The location was beautiful with amazing views of the landscape and the ocean. The grounds were well maintained with beautiful plants everywhere. There was a Zen quality with a water fountain and other positive additions. The owners Nicola and Alberta were very gracious and warm. The property is located in close proximity to the beautiful Botanical Gardens and the town center of Deshaies
comfortable bed, very clean, wonderful view from our balcony. nice pool to refresh after a hot day. well equipped kitchenette. Tasty “planteur” (local drink) made by Agnes upon our arrival. If we ever return to Guadeloupe we will be staying here for sure!
Agnes and Guylain are great hosts.
Our room (duplex suite) was gorgeous, I especially liked the big balcony facing the gardens. Great breakfast and great location next to Grande Anse beach (the most beautiful beach of Guadeloupe!) Also my compliments to the excellent daily housekeeping. Thank you !
The studio apartment brought me back to college living. Everything has its place. Well equipped in a small space. Plenty of room if you pick up your stuff! Busy, but not crazy, road during the day, but quiet at night. 7 minute walk to a gorgeous beach!
The overall location is good, although getting in and out of the hotel is sorta dangerous because it's directly on the road. The view from the room was nice. The staff was friendly and the pool offers a good view as well.
The landlady is a friendly and most helpful person. The spacious, comfortable appartement is situated right between 2 lovely beaches within walking distance . The kitchen is equipped with all what you need .
