My friend and I traveled to Le Gosier from Feb 15 – 25, 2023 and used Residence Turquoise as our base. Residence Turquoise was perfect for our needs – their two-bedroom unit was spacious, well maintained, had a well-equipped kitchen, and a lovely view. The manager (Aurelie) was unfailingly helpful and kind, and gave us useful hints and tips. The beach is about a 5-minute walk and offers great swimming and a variety of local restaurants. There are several small grocery stores, a fruit/vegetable shop and a boulangerie within easy walking distance. The Friday night market in Le Gosier offers local foods and handicrafts.

We decided we didn’t want the hassle of renting a car. While having a rental car would increase one’s flexibility to take off and explore, we managed quite well without one. We walked all over Le Gosier and took advantage of the local bus to explore Saint Anne. Le Gosier is centrally located, and makes a good base from which to access Pointe a Pitre and explore both Grande Terre and Basse Terre. We made use of local taxis (to visit the ACTe Museum and the Carnaval parade) and local tour company Coeur des Iles to explore the island. (Coeur des Iles has an in-person representative at the Zenitude Hotel most mornings.) We made guided day trips with Coeur des Iles to different parts of Guadeloupe. Our local taxi driver recommended by Residence Turquoise was also excellent.

In sum, Residence Turquoise was lovely and well located, the locals were kind and welcoming, the beaches were perfect for swimming and we had a great experience!

It was so fantastic to have a breakfast every morning on the terrace with this view. The place was very clean and nice, the air conditions were good in every room and it has a very cool atmosphere.
The Lady, named Lalih who was there was very kind and helpful, we got all information and help we needed.
The place is close to everything, to the night market, to the beach, to restaurants. I loved it! :)

We had a delightful time and were well taken care of by Cecile! We had an issue with not having French electricity plugs for our devices, she was able to find adapters for us quickly. We were worried about parking, but it proved to not be a problem. The apartment has a beautiful view from a private balcony. The building is very secure and we felt very safe.
