La Caravelle Гваделупа - Французька Вест-Індія

This place is so much fun! I was worried we would be inundated with families and kids. (I have kids and that is how it usually is when we travel). But this trip, we went as two adults and honestly I barely noticed kids - until one day I happened upon the kid area and realized they do an excellent job of separating the families and kids from the main sections.

We played volleyball, ping pong, pickleball, lawn bowling, did archery, paddled, kayaked, swam, ate too much, walked to town to shop...really we had the best time.

We didn't get to sail because we tried to do it too late and you need an instructor if you aren't pretty competent, Using an instructor requires a reservation. Also, the kayaking and paddling is not as wonderful as it sounds because you have to stay right there in front of the beach and wear a life jacket at all times. I got reprimanded for even having my life jacket unbuckled. It is a strict place, but that is probably fine for most people.

The setting is ideal and absolutely gorgeous. The food was good and plentiful, but not amazing. There were lots of local options each day, but they temper the flavor and spice to french people.

We were the only ones there we met that spoke only english. It is primarily a resort for french people. But that made it kind of fun for us. And everybody was super nice.. Just be prepared to not be able to communicate much to most of the workers or guests.

Overall, it was a wonderful all inclusive resort and the emphasis on activity and sports was really amazing. I think Club Med is the right kind of resort for me - encourages activity, exploration, socializing with new people, good food, and environmentally friendly. Other resorts i have tried don't do these things well.

Amazing service and fantastic place, great for family vacation. Would highly recommend any club med I’ve been to. Loved it

Great location and staff, good atmosphere, rooms are a bit dated. The tennis crew, Samuel and Angelo, from autexier academy are fantastic, really good and profesional!
