The apartment is not the fanciest but very comfortable and cozy, and equipped with just about everything that a vacationer would need - including free long distance to landlines in about 60 countries.. It is right on top of all the restaurants and shops in the Village, which is busy with activities all the time. But the apartment itself is very private and quiet. We are also within walking distance to three different beaches, the closest one only 5 minutes away. You don't really need a car, since there are lots of things nearby, but we would recommend renting one so you can go explore the island and try the restaurants beyond the immediate tourist area. Besides, just the round trip cab fare from the airport would cost you half as much as a week's [economy] car rental. If you do get a car there is a private parking lot right outside the building.
Beatrice and Laurent are good hosts. They met us when we arrived and explained everything, made recommendations of restaurants to try and places to visit.
The only dissatisfaction we have is that the cleaning or pest control solution they used smelled a little too perfume than we'd like, but airing out the place helped.
Oh. If you have trouble connecting to the wifi, the password printed on the router is wrong - you need to connect using WPS. (Of course, if you have only iOS devices with you, you'd be out of luck - unless Beatrice/Laurent sees this and gets the problem corrected.) Once connected, the internet is reasonably fast.
We'd recommend the place.
