West Indies Cottage is a serene eco-retreat located in Pointe-Noire, Guadeloupe, offering a rare combination of natural beauty, authentic local flavor, and unique accommodations. Nestled among lush tropical vegetation, the property features six distinctive dwellings — three individually decorated cabanes, a charming roulotte, a restored windmill, and a traditional bungalow — each designed to deliver an intimate nature experience while honoring local Creole aesthetics. Guests stay just minutes from major highlights: the Réserve Cousteau for exceptional snorkeling and diving, the volcanic black sand beaches of Pointe-Noire, and iconic sites such as Malendure and Deshaies. Boat excursions and whale-watching trips depart nearby, while local kayak rentals allow visitors to explore the calm marine reserve at their own pace. The Maison du Cacao museum is within easy reach for culinary and cultural discovery, and the network of trails and rivers nearby invites hiking, canyoning, and peaceful picnics. On-site amenities enhance every stay: a swimming pool and outdoor jacuzzi offer relaxation after a day of adventure, and a breakfast delivery service ensures a relaxed morning beneath the trees. West Indies Cottage welcomes pets with a personalized reception for every animal guest; owners are asked to inform the team in advance so that a small welcome and tailored care can be prepared. The property is an excellent base for travelers seeking responsible tourism, nature immersion, and authentic Guadeloupean experiences. Whether you come for scuba diving in crystal waters, birdwatching in tropical vegetation, or simply to relax in a peaceful setting, West Indies Cottage provides a warm, attentive environment and thoughtful services to make your stay memorable. Bookings close at midnight for same-day reservations; check-in is between 15:00 and 19:00 and check-out is before 11:00. Discover a tranquil corner of Guadeloupe where nature and comfort meet.
