Reviews and Ratings
We had an amazing stay at this charming hotel. The environment was peaceful, perfect for unwinding, and the accommodations were comfortable and well-equipped. The dining experience was truly exceptional and worth every penny. While everything was fantastic, having a wider range of breakfast options would have made it even better.
Our stay at La Désirade was simply incredible! The peaceful atmosphere and beautifully maintained gardens set the perfect backdrop for relaxation. The rooms were comfortable and spacious, and the dining experience was truly exceptional, especially the breakfast. However, it could be a bit challenging to reach some attractions without a car, even though the bus stop is nearby.
We had a truly wonderful experience at La Désirade, where the exceptional service made our family celebration memorable. The heated swimming pool was a peaceful retreat, and the breakfast was delightful, especially the freshly-made crepes. The only downside was that some areas could use a little more space, but overall, it was fantastic for our multi-generational family gathering.
I had an amazing time at La Désirade for my 65th birthday celebration surrounded by family. The setting was picturesque with beautiful gardens and a lovely swimming pool. The staff’s exceptional service stood out, making us feel genuinely welcomed. While we enjoyed the dining experience, it was the personalized attention that made our stay memorable. However, it can be a bit isolated for those looking for more bustling activities.
Our stay at La Désirade was nothing short of magical! We loved the peaceful ambiance and the stunning gardens that wrapped around the property. The rooms were comfortable, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay special. However, there could have been a bit more variety in the cooking class offerings that we enjoyed. Overall, the experience felt luxurious with excellent value for the price, especially with the half-board option.
