APARTMENT, VILLA
( 451 5763; www.ropsen.net ; Royal Rd; studio & apt €30-60, 4-bed villa €100-125; ) From mod-
ern studios to large multi-bedroom apartments, friendly Ropsen proffers such a vast array
of high-quality options that you'll start to think every building in La Gaulette is a rentable
villa in his name! Insist on a sea view and you'll be treated to some of the most spectacu-
lar vistas on the island. Almost all of Ropsen's properties have wi-fi, and guests without a
laptop can check their email at the computer terminal in Ropsen's office.
Maison Papaye

GUESTHOUSE
( 752 0918; www.maisonpapaye.com ; r €49-67; ) Set among imposing homes on a res-
idential street away from the sea, this stately chambre d'hôte is a real find. Although the
whitewashed facade, gabled roofs and periwinkle shutters may hint at a colonial past, the
building is only a few years old. The owners designed their retirement getaway to invoke
the island's plantation past and they keep tradition alive every evening with their Creole-
inspired table d'hôte dinners (€15) served on the shaded verandah. There's a minimum
four-night-stay policy.
Rusty Pelican

( www.rusty-pelican.com ; apt from €59; ) This fabulous place at the northern end of town
is a fine addition to La Gaulette's array of sleeping options. The rooms are flooded with
natural light and have excellent bathrooms. They also give you a mobile to use for the
duration of your visit (you just pay for calls) and they love helping you plan your stay.

Eating
The small superettes (small self-service grocery stores) that line the main street through
town cater for the legions of self-caterers; there are only a few restaurants in the area. For
more options consider driving up to Chamarel or Black River.
