Your money goes far with these well-equipped, spacious and well-spaced-out bungalows scattered amid a garden overflowing with blossoming tropical vegetation, plus there are magnificent ocean views from the decked swimming pool. While you're nowhere near the beach, each villa includes a hire car for the duration of your stay, so it's easy to reach Anse Bertrand and other nearby beaches.
