Forfaits vacances – Île de Lelepa

The waterfront restaurant is in a nice setting and the view is nice. The lagoon is dirty though, so fine for kayaking but not swimming. The duplex apartment was run down. The TV very small. The remote control disgusting. The aircon is in the living room. The aircon in the room does not work. You would not sit on the couches that are beyond stained. The floor is dirty. No blankets, just sheets. The mattress and bed is all caved in. There is no housekeeping and no one even swaps out towels or replenishes toilet paper or toiletries even on 4+ night stays.

The 3-bedroom villa is spacious, easy to navigate, and well-equipped with laundry facilities and great kitchen amenities. Downstairs, two bedrooms open onto a beautiful semi-enclosed patio. Opening the glass slats lets in a wonderfully refreshing sea breeze. The bathrooms are comfortable and spacious, with excellent hot water. The downstairs shower features a semi-open-air design—while completely private and enclosed, it is open to the air above. If you prefer a traditional setup, you can easily use the fully enclosed upstairs bathroom instead. Katia was a fantastic host—approachable, friendly, and an excellent communicator. Location-wise, a convenience store is just a 30-second walk away, making it effortless to grab basic groceries and satisfy late-night cravings. While parking is available directly in front of the property, we chose to take the local buses to avoid parking hassles at popular tourist spots, which worked out seamlessly. Highly recommended due to the perfect better than expected beach access and ocean views.

Beautiful beach views, staff were so helpful
