The short answer is no. There is a beach within walking distance (down a hill) but it is not good for swimming (lots of surfers go there and it is beautiful). You could sunbathe there but why leave your villa with its own pool!!<BR>Doesn't matter though cause you will have a car and can get to some the prettiest beaches in the world in 10 min.

Le Toiny is not within walking distance of a bathing beach. The nearest beach is much too rough for swimming. Even so, Le Toiny is probably the best place you can stay at on the island, and it's a short 5-10 min drive to some excellent beaches.

The Le Toiny beach is swimmable, we snorkelled there every morning out of 15 except for one, all alone and loving every second of it. It is a quick 5 minute walk down the hill. It is not a tanning beach, the sand is a bit shelly, there are many better beaches including Saline, the prettiest I have ever seen in the world. The snorkelling on the Le Toiny beach was lovely and the hotel provides the equipment.
