I visited in 2013. Beautiful place and incredible vision that has come to fruition! Is Maurice still there? I'd like to get in touch with him. I can send you my email if that's best.
I had such a great time visiting Lakou Lakay! They were so professional, welcoming, and on time. I had a great time walking around the space with Rose and getting a glimpse into the life and activities of Lakou Lakay in Milot. The setting immediately put me at ease, and the atmosphere was very welcoming. The food was top notch and Maurice's wife incredibly charming. Strongly recommended. Looking forward to returning with my fiance!
My one night stay was a rare experience where the service is so warm and intimate as to verge on friendship. The food (Dinner, breakfast and lunch) was a discovery of new tastes, each delicious. But the highlight was discussing Haiti's histories and stories with Morris, whose knowledge was matched by his warmth and charisma. Guests should be prepared for a rustic experience as the infrastructure needs some finishing and electricity is unreliable, but the location (down the road from Sans Souci) and experience were first rate.
Everything a guesthouse experience should be; Maurice and his nieces are wonderful hosts, showing us the quotidien life around town, organizing reliable guides to visit the citadel, and making sure we felt at home. Perched onteh hillside in this lush valley, with views of the Palais Sans Soucis (and occasionally, when the clouds clear, the Citadel) this is a magical place. It is perpetually half finished but don't let that put you off - there is nowhere else I would stay to visit Milot.
Located just outside of Cap Haitien in the hills before the Sans-Souci Palace and the Citadel - with lovely hosts and excellent food. A rustic setup, electricity is patchy so expect a candle lit dinner of fresh Haitian creole dishes and a quiet evening of Prestige and Rhum on the terrace. And if you are lucky Maurice will be in town and can share some insights into the local history. A lovely family and always a lovely stay!
Welcome you to stay with us!
