A truly unique spot. Food was brilliant, as was the service. However, it’s fairly expensive, but this is the case for most restaurants on the island.
Very lovely and unique restaurant for families with kids. There is a small pool and near by beach. The food is french , delicious and typical. Special thanks to the staff for their great kindness and patience with our party.
really good elevated ‘home’ style cooking, and relaxed service. Highly recommend for families - does half portions of almost all main dishes
