Deshaies, France
Tendacayou
Set in the forested highlands above Deshaies on Guadeloupe's Basse-Terre coast, Tendacayou occupies a different register from the island's beachside properties. The address at Matouba La Haut places it at elevation, where the architecture works with the rainforest rather than against it. For travellers looking beyond the standard Caribbean hotel formula, this is where the French Antilles' more grounded hospitality tradition becomes legible.
