Why stay here

Acquario Villa is a small guesthouse set in a tropical garden at Anse Petite Cour, on the stretch of north-east coast just west of Côte d'Or. The owners describe it as a quiet base for guests who want privacy, with the shops, dive centres, boat charters and restaurants of Côte d'Or a short walk away.

The accommodation is a mix of apartments and one family villa, each with its own kitchen, living room and veranda, so it works as a self-catering stay. The guesthouse also runs its own restaurant, where breakfast or dinner can be requested.
