La Maison de l’Ilet Oscar
Our history
The house where you will stay was originally constructed on the island next-door. The house was lost in a card game by its original owner ! It was then dismantled and set to drift over to Ilet Oscar where it was rebuilt in 1935 on its current site piece-by- piece.
The house has kept its rustic charm while offering modern comfort and is run in a sustainable way.
Into the bay
La Maison de l’Ilet Oscar is only a 10-minute boat ride from the harbor of Le Francois village. The hordor is around 20 minutes away from the airport. A lit up parking lot is available to safely park your car at the harbor. Once your stay is booked, the captain of a small fishing boat will be waiting for you at a predefined time.
