Hôtel Auberge Les Petits Saints

What’s It’s Like: The top choice on Terre-de-Haut is the intimate hotel has guest rooms filled with antiques (they're for sale) and one of the isle's best restaurants (the grilled fish with vanilla sauce is a standout). Surrounding Saintes Bay was named the second most beautiful bay of the world by UNESCO.

Why It’s a Bargain: Terre-de-Haute, the largest of the French-speaking islands of Les Saintes, off the coast of Guadeloupe, is an often overlooked, barefoot version of St. Bart's, dotted with small hotels where the doors are still left unlocked.
