Tiffany United Kingdom

Breakfast was nice i chose the location options all the time, dinner was not always consistent but still good and the location was prefect for dong tours near by.

Nikims United States

Very welcoming, professional staff. Lovely room, outdoor shower. Great food in the restaurant, with local dishes. The hike up to the viewpoint. General atmosphere was warm and friendly. The grounds were very well kept. The chalet/bungalows were large and clean and nicely decorated. Bathroom was modern.

Caroline France

Setting is beautiful , picturesque and peaceful.

Gail United Kingdom

The breakfast was delightful, with a large selection of food and drink options and a menu that changed every day. Food was local and promoted St Lucian culture. Ask for the coco tea! Yum Take time to walk to the top of the estate along the structured paths. Its well worth a trip and there's a great Piton viewing point. The pool areas are very tastefully furnished with relax and read areas. Very peaceful. The shower in the cottage is superb.

Deirdre United Kingdom

The privacy of the cottages and the amazing lush landscape

    We have one cottage with A/C on the property. The resort is at high attitude hence the reason we use ceiling fans in the cottages. It gets extremely cool on evenings and should you wish we can add a standing fan in your cottage.
