Le Saint-Alexis Hotel & Spa

Réunion


Le Saint-Alexis is a quirkily laid-out resort at the southern tip of the main beach. The rooms are all arrayed around a central patio, which means that none of them have sea views. They're attractively decorated, although the ones in the angles lack natural light. Facilities include a small spa and a large, U-shaped pool that girdles the building.

You may want to book a rez-de-piscine room, with direct access to the pool. Breakfast (€26) is served on a terrace with stunning sea views. Frequent online promotional deals provide better value.
