Not far from the district of François and its eight islets, the Cap Est Lagoon Resort & Spa with its luxury villas and suites, extends throughout a large tropical park by the sea. The architecture is elegant, and well integrated with the vegetation, which covers the slightly hilly peninsula, reaching down to the lagoon. Everything has been well thought out for a warm welcome, with especial care taken with respect to the environment, the resort exists in harmony with Martinique's rich flora and fauna. The Cap Est Lagoon Resort is part of the French Relais & Châteaux chain.
