Fodor's Review:

Anse Chastanet is magical, if you don't mind the bone-crushing dirt road between the town and the resort and the steep climb to most rooms. But there's the water taxi alternative, or you can soak in the gorgeous isolation; shuttle service is available between the beach and the hillside rooms, 100 steps up. Spectacular rooms, some with stunning Piton vistas, peek through the thick rain forest that cascades down to the sea. Deluxe hillside rooms have a balcony, tile floors, madras fabrics, handmade wooden furniture, and impressive artwork. But you won't find any communication devices, technology, or interruption: it's delightfully peaceful. Diving, jungle biking through the estate's 600 acres, and ocean kayaking are premier activities; rejuvenate afterward at the Kai Belte Spa. Pros: great for divers; room 14B with the tree growing through the bathroom; the Piton views. Cons: entrance road is difficult to negotiate; steep hillside certainly not conducive to strolling, some may miss in-room TVs and phones.
