Holiday villas in La Desirade, Guadeloupe
The first island seen by Christopher Columbus on his second voyage, when he and his crew were desperate to find the Indian route in 1493, it was christened \"Desiderada\". Preserved by the influx of tourists who prefer her big sister, the main island of Guadeloupe, Désirade seems to be the end of the world. An ungrateful, rocky land, scarcely watered by the rains, but very frankly swept by the easterly winds, the Desirade has, since hosting lepers and bandits, the reputation of an accursed island. The contrary winds that torment the coast have long made it difficult to afford, which has only thicken the mystery that encircle with a halo and accentuate its insular character. Still, life is peaceful on the South side. North side, majestic and wild cliffs seem to dive into the sea. The landscape is stunning. The inhabitants of Desirade or the Desiradiens, a seafaring people, compare their island, faithful to tradition, to an inverted boat whose hull is formed by the high plateau of the mountain. 11 kilometers long, 2 wide and crossing from West to East by a road that you can borrow by car or bike (the most courageous ones will get started with their walking shoes!), It is quite easy to be mobile on the Desirade. This road connects the interesting points: it starts from the Galets Cove, crosses the \"capital\" as locals call the largest city on the island that Beauséjour, and continues to the Souffleur and Baie-Mahault. It ends at Pointe Doublé, facing the Atlantic Ocean. Did you know that the Désirade produced its own electricity thanks to the wind turbines that sit on the Souffleur site?
For this winter, are you dreaming of warmth and exoticism, in the heart of a lush and welcoming tropical forest? My Home In has selected for you rentals of houses and apartments in the greenest areas of Guadeloupe.
