La Caravelle

Fodor's Review:

The energetic Mahler family has transformed this simple hotel with their artwork from Africa, where patriarch Jean-Paul worked for several decades as a hotel manager. The one-bedroom apartment above the restaurant is handsome. Several of the "family" rooms connect, making them good for groups. The refurbished apartment conveniently has two bathrooms. There is a feel-good breakfast, with fresh local bread and yogurt that is served—as is dinner—at the terrace restaurant, with its awesome view of mountains and ocean. Teak chairs and tables on its verandah look smart, as does the overhanging red tin roof. Pros: caring service; interesting international family; good cuisine. Cons: no pool; still a simple, French hotel; breakfast extra.
