We (Mom and Toddler) stayed 3 weeks at Michel's studio and found it to be perfect for our needs. Michel was excellent and prompt in answering all of our questions that we had previous to our vacation, he even provided suggestions on places to go, advice on transportation and local areas to visit. The studio was immaculate and provided everything that we might need in way of towels, dishes, converters etc.. The wi-fi connection at the studio was reliable and fast, they even have a Roku set up, which we rarely used as the sound from the ocean waves were amazing (but to stream cartoons for the toddler or music at times was a nice benefit). As a single mother, I felt completely safe in this area (they have security on the grounds). The view was most amazing, wonderful for dinners, coffee/wine and relaxing on the balcony. The pool on the grounds look amazing, however we kept busy with the beaches and never really relaxed at the pools. Michel provides a pamphlet on the studio that contains everything that you might need (places to visit and emergency numbers along with many other informational items that were very helpful.
There is quite a bit of walking to haul groceries, luggage etc, so I do recommend that you be ready for that (we enjoyed it, walking is always good with the toddlers energy). You have a great view of the ocean from inside of the studio, the view really cannot be beat.
Walking Orient beach was wonderful and the little places to eat and drink were fun along the way. I do recommend renting a car to visit all of the island, the driving took a day or so to get use to but absolutely worth it as the island has so many beautiful beaches with each having its own vibe. This location was also so located conveniently to the more calm beaches for swimming and where the ferry/kayak left to go Pinel island (which I highly recommend), however, you still need a car to get there.
Overall I would stay at Michel's again, the Studio was perfect, the view stunning and his personal service accommodating and professional!
