Why Go

Sunset Cafe sits within the Grand Case Beach Club on Rue de la Petite Plage, giving it direct access to one of Grand Case's quieter beach stretches away from the main Boulevard dining strip. While most visitors to Grand Case focus on the famous restaurant row along the Boulevard, Petite Plage (Little Beach) offers a more intimate setting where the sand is just as beautiful but the crowds thin considerably. Sunset Cafe provides food and drinks to both Beach Club guests and visitors discovering this calmer side of Grand Case.

The Experience

The Grand Case Beach Club setting gives Sunset Cafe a built-in atmosphere that standalone restaurants work hard to achieve. The beach is right there, the water sports are steps away through Creole Rock Watersports, and the Zen Garden Massage is nearby for post-meal relaxation. The café format keeps things approachable — expect beach-appropriate cuisine rather than the formal French dining that defines the Boulevard. For guests staying at the Beach Club, Sunset Cafe is the convenience of an on-property restaurant. For outside visitors, it is a reason to explore the Petite Plage side of Grand Case that most tourists miss.

What to Try

Beach café menus typically feature fresh, light dishes suited to the setting — salads, grilled fish, sandwiches, and tropical drinks. Ask about specials that take advantage of the Grand Case fishing tradition. A cold drink on this beach as the sun drops toward the horizon explains the café's name perfectly.

Insider Tip

Petite Plage is the snorkeling beach in Grand Case — the water off this stretch is calmer and clearer than the main bay. Combine a snorkeling session or kayak rental from Creole Rock Watersports with lunch at Sunset Cafe for a half-day experience that most Grand Case visitors never discover because they stay on the Boulevard.
