Fodor's Review:

These dramatically set one-, two-, and three-bedroom bungalows cling like glorified tree houses to a cliff overlooking several glittering beaches. Enormous enclosed patios open onto the island's most-glorious vistas; monkeys and pelicans often drop by informally. Every cottage has a full kitchen; many have outdoor gas grills and private swimming pools (those with no pool are especially good buys), and property-wide Wi-Fi is slated for addition by late 2009. It's a short if precipitous walk to Oualie and Lover's beaches, but a tiny hotel pool sits in the foundation of a 250-year-old fort, shaded by a magnificent baobab tree. The bungalows are beautifully designed and decorated with beamed ceilings, batik wall hangings, terra-cotta floors, Thai teak furnishings, striking abstract art naïf, and beds swaddled in mosquito netting. Most coveted, especially by honeymooners, are Baobab, Williwaw, Sea Biscuit, and the ultraprivate Monkey cottages. Pros: sensational views; good value for one-bedroom cottages; free use of snorkeling equipment. Cons: no air-conditioning for the rare stifling day; minuscule pool; hike back up from beach; Internet access available only in Seastone bungalow or front office.
