Hotel Les Mouettes

St-Barthélemy


Opening onto Lorient's sands, this small, family-owned seven-unit compound has you sleeping in well-kept bungalows dressed in soft whites and pastels. Sea-facing terraces come with outdoor kitchenettes cleverly concealed by motorized roll-up blinds (a supermarket is steps away).
