Accommodations in Guadeloupe run the gamut, from elegant resorts to unpretentious hotels and guesthouses with only a few rooms. Travelers can also choose their environment, from touristy resort areas to secluded beachfront or forest properties.
Hotels and resorts on Grand-Terre are concentrated on the southern coast of the island and cater to tourists that seek resort-style accommodations in close proximity to beaches, shopping, entertainment, food, and activities. The areas of Gosier, Sainte-Anne, and St. François, all located along the southern coast of the island, make up the most popular tourist destinations in Grand-Terre.

Basse-Terre is the other half of the butterfly shape formed by Guadeloupe's two main islands. Known mainly for the capital and its UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Parc National de la Guadeloupe, this island is also known for its eco-tourism opportunities. Small resorts and unpretentious bungalows, nestled on cliffs and among the vibrant landscapes, make up the majority of the accommodations here.
Lodging on the smaller outlying islands of Marie-Galante and Iles des Saintes consists of small and intimate places, typically with less than 10 rooms each. Most of these accommodations will be just a short hop away from Guadeloupe's most stunning and uncrowded beaches, and a few even have a restaurant and bar. Other amenities available at select locations include fans, pools, watersports, and tennis. La Désirade, the unspoiled island to the east of Grand-Terre, has only a few small guesthouses for travelers. Nearly empty beaches are this island's big payoff.

While staying in a traditional hotel or resort allows you to see more of the island, many travelers consider staying in all-inclusive resorts in order to make their lodging, meals and activities and package deal. However, you can still browse for non-inclusive hotels that have the most on-site or neary dining options, and even those that host their own live entertainment.
