Fodor's Expert Review Le Soleil Levant Hotel and Resort
42 rue de la Marine, Marie-Galante, 97140, Guadeloupe
Low prices, gorgeous hilltop views, and nice dual pools keep this simple, family-owned complex filled. The real drawback for Americans is that little English is spoken, but that may be a reasonable trade-off for such a good deal. In front of the original hotel, with furnishings from decades past, is a large terrace with two pools and 360-degree views of the village and sea below. In addition to the newer building that houses the apartments, there are 10 bungalows, five with full kitchens. An open-air restaurant and bar serves an ample continental breakfast (for an extra fee) as well as basic dinners. More rooms were added and the new spa offers massages, facials, wraps, a sauna, Jacuzzi, and a sports hall.
