All these pretty thatched beach houses have shaded verandahs looking out across the palm strewn gardens to the sea with views to the offshore reef and pretty islet. Although geared up for self catering, each has a simply equipped kitchen, Petite Bacaye’s restaurant is open six days a week for early to very late lunch. Fisherman will bring in their catch daily – lobster, snapper, strawberry grouper and conch. Banana and paw-paw are served directly from the trees. In fact guests are even provided with cook books with delicious recipes from the hotel's kitchen and tips on which fishermen catch what and how much you should pay. Picnics and sunset barbeques are de rigeur in the six acres of beautifully tended grounds with hammock points throughout .A whisper away from the warm seas this intimate eco-resort is a stylish barefoot idyll on a dreamscape beach; Robinson Crusoe or South Pacific could be reshot here tomorrow, and no set would need to be built. Those planning an intimate beach wedding or a special occasion should consider taking over Petit Bacaye, a haven of unspoilt bliss.
