$$$$, Le François
Fodor's Review:
A member of the Relais and Châteaux group, Martinique's most exclusive resort has brought back the wealthy, international set. No wonder, as this beautiful property has been busy stockpiling awards from major magazines. The staff strives to make sure that guests leave satisfied. Contemporary villas (some bi-level) have a Franco-Caribbean design, with Southeast Asian influences; most have a view of the crystalline lagoon. The less expensive garden rooms have water views from their second-floor bedrooms, but not from the ground floor, nor do they have private plunge pools. All suites have CD-DVD players and plasma TVs. Discriminating guests (as well as nonguests) can indulge themselves at the elegant Spa by Guerlain; from the soft music to the minimalist decor, it's a soothing place to enjoy professional treatments. Sports activities include kayaking, kite surfing, yoga, and hopping aboard a motor yacht and exploring the neighboring islands.
