"Pros: We spent a fantastic month at Bay Villa in Trou d'Eau Douce and could not have been happier. The villa sits right on the lagoon, so every meal came with a sweeping turquoise view and a gentle sea breeze. The swimming pool is perfectly placed between the house and the water, which meant we could enjoy the island vibes from the pool’s edge overlooking the bay every day. Inside, everything felt designed for easy living. The kitchen is large and well-stocked. The bedrooms were airy, the beds were large and somewhat comfortable, and the bathrooms were spotless throughout our stay thanks to Melisia (the housemaid) cleaning them daily. The WiFi was fast and steady, which kept work and meetings smooth, and the alarm system added peace of mind fro us during our stay. Generally, the service made the experience even better. Melisia took care of the house with a quiet efficiency that let us relax completely; she kept every room clean and handled any request we had. Isabelle was equally thoughtful, always quick to answer questions and help with arrangements, making us feel looked after from start to finish. If you are after beautiful scenery, reliable comfort, and hosts who genuinely care, The Bay Villa delivers. We left rested, happy, and already planning a return visit next year :) Cons: The pool is shared with other houses, which may sometimes host noisy neighbors and kids. Besides that everything was perfect." ~Tarek
