Fodor's Expert Review Langley Resort Fort Royal

Bas Vent, Basse-Terre, 97126, Guadeloupe

This well-priced, friendly, and fun resort offers both simple beachfront bungalows and regular rooms in a mostly all-inclusive environment geared toward less fussy travelers. Contemporary Nordic style characterizes everything, including a complex with a big wooden deck, a restaurant, beach bar, a huge pool, and a whimsical kids' club. The decor in the bungalows mimics that of the larger hotel rooms—contemporary minimalist, with splashes of vivid color and red tile floors. The global staff is young and dynamic, and all speak English. The resort offers a wide range of excursions as well as a litany of water sports and even evening entertainment from November to August, with everything from karaoke to local bands. Although several meal plans are available, most guests go all-inclusive; nonguests can buy a day pass. However, this resort is probably not going to please older, sophisticated travelers.
