Good to know
- Online booking requires a minimum stay of three nights: worth knowing before planning a one-night stop.
- If the size of the room matters to your choice, ask for it in writing before booking.
- The east coast rises early: it is the sunrise side, and it is windier than the west.
- The boathouse water sports are included; diving, glass-bottom boat, water skiing, catamaran, speed boat, parasailing and deep sea fishing are taken nearby, at extra cost.
- The trip to Île aux Cerfs goes by boat from the village: it is the excursion everyone makes from Trou d’Eau Douce.
