If you’re asking where Anse Marcel is you’re way off.

Anse Marcel is on the way to the Pinel Island ferry but if you get to the ferry parking lot you’ve gone too far so turn around and head back - it will be the hard right up the steep hill and keep going. You will eventually see a sign for the Beach Club. When you start coming down again at what looks like it might be or might have been a guardhouse for RIU, turn left and keep going. This road will eventually bring you into the Anse Marcel Beach Club parking lot.

The main road into the club is steep, very narrow and very curvy and lots of those curves are blind. Please, even if you’re tempted, DONT stop on the road to take a photo. We almost hit someone who stopped to do just that on one of our first trips. It sounds daunting and it is to a degree, but once you’re there you’ll be so glad you made the trip from wherever you’re staying.



About three years ago perhaps 4, went to this place you describe and thought the whole area was abandoned and looked in a state of disrepair. Huge parking area and on the right were these buildings with a marina of sorts but no stores were open. Then walked over to this hotel to see if we could get breakfast and see what the beach looked like and they wouldn't let us in. Had some kind of delegation going on and with that were very disappointed and went back to Marigot. So the experience put us off ever going again..might though revisit.
