L/Ane Vert is situated in one of the most naturally beautiful spots Ive visited. HOWEVER its completely missing the mark and taking advantage of the environment. When I arrived the setting took my breath away, but so did the human welcome for very different reasons. Cold, unfriendly, rude, unapproachable and defensive. It felt terrible to arrive. I left 10 days earlier then planned. It was a hard decision because of the surroundings and the food was delicious. I left because there was zero respect to the guests. Be warned you are essentially entering an all night party atmosphere and you can't escape. You have no choice but to be in it or feel miserable out of it. I stayed 3 nights and every night the music and bass kept me awake until 2/3am and on the last night 6.30am. To miss out on the sounds of the the ocean at night is a tragedy. You can get party music anywhere. Ive been to enough places that are getting it right to know when I'm in place that isnt. Its actually quite embarrassing, its disappointing and its BORING. Anyone can build an eco lodge physically, but it takes a special place to create somewhere that LIVES ecologically. I spoke to locals who told me they have had to call the police to ask for the music to be turned down regularly. The reputation of L'Ane Vert is very bad indeed. L'Ane Vert needs to remember that they are visitors to this incredible land and respect that. They need to hold themselves to account on the eco labels the put themselves under.
