The Desroches Island Resort is an oasis of calm. Experience world-class diving and fishing amid deep blue waters and coral, or simply laze by the undisturbed peace of the pool. With 15 kilometres of beaches, this delightful island is a genuine escape. Hammocks hang from swaying palms on endless white sandy beaches where you can remain untroubled all day long. Elegant suites with low-key colonial architecture are scattered throughout palm-studded gardens to ensure real privacy. From here, the peace is interrupted only by waves that lap gently against the shore. Should the mood strike, 14 classified reef sites ensure awe-inspiring dives you will never forget. From your favourite water sports to riding bicycles, tennis or just eating and drinking in tranquil surroundings, this is a haven for all.
