Hello jojo347.

In meantime, do not hesitate to post an advert in the Housing in the Reunion Island section. It can be useful.

Thank you,
Aurélie

Hi

I think it really depends on what you want to do professionally, and how much you like to drive.
St Gilles is a good place for the beach and nightlife, but that's about it IMO.
You may well find you choose one place when you first arrive but end up settling elsewhere once you've got a feel for the island.
I'd also suggest you check out the 'immobilier' ads at clicanoo.re/Sommaire-annonces.html (all in French I'm afraid).
