Blue Haven HotelSituated on a majestic cliff overlooking Bacolet Beach, romantic Blue Haven provided the idyllic scenery for several Golden Movies. Splendidly refurbished while retaining its retro-charm Blue Haven combines the ambience and atmosphere of "yesterday" with modern living. If former celebrity guests were to visit today, they'd find the same coral-pink '50s façade, century-old palms lining the driveway, remnants of an old fortress with cannons and the original octagonal lobby topped by a dome opening onto a broad terrace surrounded by lush tropical vegetation and the azure blue sea. Enjoy a vacation in paradise spiced with true Caribbean island life.
