Aura is the place to be! It was stunning. It's basically brand new. We stayed in the studio and it was plenty of room. The room opened up right to the pool deck. The property is impeccably clean. I rarely saw anyone in the pool, it was quiet and private. We especially appreciated the complimentary rental car that came with our stay. The car was delivered right to our door, we signed a paper and it was all set. The units are impeccable. Everything you need. We went to the Super U which was less then 10 minutes away to get fresh fruit, french cheeses and baguette for breakfast. There is also a little french bakery at the bottom of the mountain which we picked up fresh Quish and croissants a few mornings. Grand Case and Orient are only a 10 minute drive. Anse Marcel beach was a 2 minute car drive down the hill and was stunning. The star of this place is Yann. Your own personal concierge. He can get you a reservation anywhere and knows everyone on the island. Chairs at Pinel Island, dinner reservations, whatever you need! I highly recommend. This is a high end, high class place away from all the loud tourist on the Dutch side.

We have stayed in many resorts in the Caribbean and Aura by far has been the best. So good that my kids didn't even want to leave the place to do any excursions. They were good with their communications, scheduled events for us and were always there. Don't miss the opportunity to stay at Aura.
