Accor’s New Guadeloupe Hotel Is Planning a “Late 2025” Debut

The long-awaited Pullman resort in Guadeloupe is still targeting a “late 2025” opening, according to parent company Accor. 

The new wellness-focused resort will include 102 rooms, called the Pullman Royal Key. 

It will be the first Pullman-branded resort in the Caribbean, and the first new-build hotel in Guadeloupe in years. 

It will be Accor’s first hotel in Guadeloupe since the company’s MGallery brand left the Auberge de la Vieille Tour hotel. That remains one of my favorite places to stay on the island.

The property is set on the northeastern coast of the island of Grande Terre in Le <oule (not far from one of Guadeloupe’s most famous distilleries, Damoiseau). 

The hope is for a tourism boost for a destination that remains one of the more fascinating places to visit in the Caribbean — but one largely overlooked by American travelers. 

The hotel is not yet taking bookings, meaning the late 2025 debut could be a bit of a stretch.
