Frégate Bleue

Frommer's Review

This is the closest thing to a European B&B on the island. It's a calm and quiet choice with touches of personal, old-fashioned charm. It's not the place for vacationers looking for nightlife and lots of activities -- it's for escapists who don't mind the 10-minute drive to the beaches of St-François or the prevailing sense of isolation. Much of this ambience is the work of owner Yveline de Lucy de Fossarieu, an experienced veteran of the hotel industry. Her house is a 5-minute drive inland from the sea, and it overlooks several chains of deserted offshore islands (including Les Ilets de St-François and Les Ilets de l'Impératrice). Bedrooms are small but cozy, each with a compact bathroom with a shower. The site is perched in a quiet residential neighborhood high on a hill. Each room has either a terrace or a balcony with sweeping views over the coast. The hotel has opened a Creole and French restaurant on site.
