Location was great, very nice beach with plenty of shade and chaise lounges. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Staff speak English very well. Breakfast selection of fresh fruits, yogurt and toppings, breads and juices were very nice.

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.
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.
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 ;-)
The room had everything I needed with outdoor kitchen and dining - the common area and pool was an extra bonus. It is a really special place - near the road, but very quiet and the gardens are exceptional. Amazing location - so close the the Grand Anse beach - but walking distance to Deshailes and other beaches in the area - by coastal/hill trails or the road. The bus from the ferry in Pointe a Pitre stops 5 minutes from the hotel.
Very lovely property and super friendly staff. I speak French which of course was helpful, but several staff also spoke excellent English (helpful to my spouse and son who don't speak French). The room was very spacious, with an interesting layout (loft area), and a large porch with a sitting area, dining area and outdoor kitchen, which had a beautiful view. Easy to walk to Grande Anse beach, and a short drive to Deshaies.
Loved the well maintained pool area and outdoor lounge! Amazing views of the sea from the property. Charismatic & friendly owner (bilingual - French & English) & family. Within 10 mins of excellent restaurants like L’Otenik, as well as some of the most beautiful beaches we saw in Guadeloupe (like Plaga de la Perle). A paradise! Many thoughtful, small touches throughout.
The proximity to the beach and Deshaies. There was a useful small store at the nearby service station for basic essentials. Being able to prepare meals etc on the terrace - the kitchenette was well equipped. The outlook was pleasant and the grounds very attractive and well maintained. The staff were very pleasant & accommodating, rubbish was collected daily.
Hotel was just a short walk to one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. Good restaurants close by for which the hotel was happy to make reservations. Wonderful breakfast buffet with a mix of local fruit and French items. Rooms were spacious and beds were comfortable. Excellent daily housekeeping.
The hotel is set in a lovely botanical garden. The duplex little houses are lovely and clean. Good air conditioning. Lovely pool.
Loved the fact it's an eco hotel.
Owners are lovely and very helpful.
Very close to La Perle beach, the police station and Catherine's bar used to film Death in Paradise.
Beautiful Villa with fantastic views of Deshaies and the bay. If you are a ‘Death in Paradise’ fan you will have an uninterrupted view of both Katherine’s Bar and Honore Police Station, though you will need binoculars or a telephoto lens for detail. We had a great week.
The studio apartment's (2 bedrooms) outdoor kitchen, lounge and pool area are great. The location is wonderful, very quiet and you can conveniently reach Deshaies or nearby beaches. The hosts were lovely and helpful.
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 .

The room is spacious, it has a nice view over the sea.
The kitchennete is equipped properly.
The owner met us at an agreed place, led us to the room and explained everything needed.
beautiful location, nice oceanfront huts, hotel receptionist (forgot her name but I think she was the only local lady ) was exceptional, literally the best !.
