I just stayed at The Tibou Location in The Montebello/Carrare area just south of Petit Bourg. The apartment is absolutely beautiful. Spotlessly clean. And the decor/furnishings seemed to be of Designer quality. Beautiful linens, furnishings, kitchen supplies, lovely tile floors throughout, and a huge open veranda looking out over the locally owned small farms, then onward to the sea. This location is on one side of the island where there are very few facilities lets say, within walking distance. One definite necessity is a car! That is, unless you are a seasoned traveler and can rely on the Local public bus system....of which I did the entire trip. There is a bus intersection a 10-minute walk away, where you can jump on, and off, and truly go anywhere on the two islands, But it takes time and patience. For example My second day I took the local buses around the entire island of Basse Terre (The bigger island) because the weather was a bit on and off. That trip took me 8 eight hours, and 5 busses and 3 jump offs, where I'd take an hour or so, and visit Basse Terre (Town), Point Noir, and Deshaies. All of which are local villages/towns not to be missed on the western coast. Each segment coasts @ 2-4 US$ It's a true island experience! Watching the locals come and go, and having a birds-eye view of the entire coastal villages, towns, mountains, rivers, and onward...... While staying here you cannot miss the roadside Local Grill/bbq at the same intersection. I literally took out my dinner every night except one, because the local food was amazing!! I'd definitely recommend getting over to Grande Anse Island and spending a day at St Anne, and St Francios. It seems the weather is more reliable on the smaller island due to its low geography unlike the mountainous bigger island, where clouds can cling to the mountains on and off, which produces your typical tropical rain storms. Not to mention the water is a lot calmer, and beaches have more facilities (Restaurants, bars, shops, etc.) In closing, Richard and Emilie were just delightful hosts and could not be more accommodating, but neither speak very much English, which is truly OK, because you just Make it work I cannot recommend this listing enough! It was beautiful!!!! Paul B. New Hampshire, USA
