Our history
The story begins in autumn 2008 in Paris. The weather is gloomy and cool ... and it should not improve in the following months! Samy and Olivier discuss their respective vacations in the Caribbean. For Samy, it was sailing. Olivier had rented a small family villa on a site from individual to individual ... and the rental did not really correspond to the description!
Samy is experienced in the field of computing, Olivier, in the organization of travel. And since both love the sunshine and the warm sea, they decide to combine their skills to create Antilles Exception in Martinique.
