Guadeloupe spreads its two wings on either side of the Rivière Salée: Grande-Terre with its beaches, and Basse-Terre with its volcano. Between pale sandy beaches, tropical forest and agricultural rum, the archipelago lends itself just as well to relaxation as to exploration.
Hiking, diving and browsing the markets
On Basse-Terre, climb towards La Soufrière from the Bains Jaunes, walk to the Carbet Falls, or roam the trails of the National Park. The Cousteau Reserve, off Malendure, remains the top spot for scuba diving and snorkelling.
Grande-Terre is where the beaches are concentrated: Sainte-Anne, La Caravelle, the Gosier lagoon. Push on to the Pointe des Châteaux for landscapes battered by the Atlantic. Stock up on spices and fruit at the Saint-Antoine market in Pointe-à-Pitre, visit an agricultural rum distillery, and make the most of your own kitchen to cook up ouassous and the day's fish brought back from the market.
Where to set down your bags
On Grande-Terre, our apartments and studios are concentrated around Le Gosier, Sainte-Anne and Saint-François, handy for stringing together beaches, restaurants and a lively scene. This is the seaside, buzzing side of the archipelago.
Basse-Terre, greener and quieter, lends itself to houses and bungalows near Deshaies, Bouillante or Trois-Rivières, within reach of the trails and the coves. Renting a whole place gives you the space of a terrace and the freedom to roam at your own pace, with family or friends, and a day trip to Les Saintes or Marie-Galante on the horizon.

We offer 486 entire-home rentals across the archipelago, spread between Grande-Terre and Basse-Terre. You’ll find 169 apartments, 133 houses, 72 bungalows, from apartments near Gosier or Sainte-Anne to quieter houses and bungalows near Deshaies or Trois-Rivières. Each property gives you the independence of a terrace and a kitchen.
Are the properties well rated?
Travelers give an average rating of 4.6 out of 5 to our rentals in Guadeloupe. This average is based on 288 properties rated after a stay. The number of reviews remains limited, so be sure to read each listing and its comments carefully before booking.
Do you need to rent a car in Guadeloupe?
Yes, a car is nearly essential to get around between the beaches of Grande-Terre and the trails of Basse-Terre. Public transport remains limited and infrequent. Pointe-à-Pitre Le Raizet Airport serves the archipelago and hosts most car rental agencies. Arrange your vehicle as soon as you land.
What's the best time to visit?
The dry season, from December to April, offers the most stable climate, ideal for the beach and hiking. From June to November, the rainy season and hurricane risk increase, peaking between August and October. Rates are lower then and the archipelago is quieter.
Grande-Terre or Basse-Terre: where should you stay?
Grande-Terre concentrates the beaches and activity around Gosier, Sainte-Anne, and Saint-François, convenient for restaurants and nightlife. Basse-Terre, greener, appeals to hiking enthusiasts with La Soufrière, the Carbet Falls, and the Cousteau Reserve. Many visitors split their stay between both sides.
Can you visit Les Saintes and Marie-Galante from Guadeloupe?
Yes, ferries connect the archipelago to the neighboring islands daily. Les Saintes can be reached from Trois-Rivières or Pointe-à-Pitre, and Marie-Galante from Pointe-à-Pitre or Saint-François. The crossing takes between twenty minutes and one hour depending on departure point. Book ahead during high season, as connections fill up quickly.
