Places to relax and eat in the neighborhood!
Relax while drinking a craft beer at “Bières de la Lézarde” 800 meters as the crow flies. Dining in a musical atmosphere in a former plantation dating from 1848 "New Orlean's" or enjoying refined dishes at the nearby "Mahogany" restaurant, nothing is missing in the neighborhood. You can also taste the excellent chocolates from Anne Solène, very close to the Habitation.
Staying at Villa Les Cassias offers a genuine immersion into the modernist spirit and architecture of 1930s Guadeloupe.
Designed by the architect Gérard Michel Corbin and constructed by the contractor Dyonisius Santelli, in association with the builder Petrelluzzi, this reinforced concrete house in the modernist style features two small wings set at right angles and presents a symmetrical and well-ordered front façade, enhanced by a central porch.
The continuous overhangs, the projection of the original cement roof, and the circular porthole windows make this house a fine example of 1930s modernist architecture, influenced by the architect Ali Tur. [C.C.]
