Lovely place to stay”

The hosts are very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Our room was large and very clean, with a lovely verandah and a large bathroom with walk-in shower. The bed was very comfortable and the air conditioning worked well in keeping the room cool. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty. BEach towels were available and the hosts offered a cool box for us to take to the beach. All-in-all, a very enjoyable stay at a very good price.

one of the best places I ever stayed at”

This guesthouse is a real Guesthouse. The owner is taking care of every guest in a way, that you simply feel like a king. Starting from the breakfast, invitation for a free welcome drink, explaining where to eat and where to go, preparing a cooling box and snorkelling stuff for your day at the beach...and much more. I don't like an exaggeration, but here really everything was perfect. Thank you for the great hospitality!

Friendly and informative host who did everything possible to make our stay special including providing ice boxes and booking trips for us. Host told us the beautiful history of the guesthouse. We enjoyed relaxing by the pool as well as venturing out on a boat trip and game drive. Breakfast buffet was plentiful with great variety. Our only regret is we couldn't stay longer. Would love to visit again.

Beautiful renovated house with breakfast deck, lobby/living room, great pool, garden, off street parking. Lots of help with tours, beach gear, packed coolers, help with onward reservations much appreciated. WiFi was occasionally disrupted, mostly excellent. My one suggestion would be a bedside lamp bright enough to read by. Top notch inn.

Wonderful Stay in St Lucia”

From the moment we were welcomed at the door, to our final breakfast, the owners couldn't have been more lovely. Whether it was sherry and sweets in the evening, or coffee and a bun for our safari, nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation was lovely, and our bedroom looked out over the pool itself. Beautiful, and would happily stay again.

Freundlichkeit, Frühstück und Extras

Das Hotel ist schön älter, die Einrichtung englisch kolonial-ein bisschen muffig antiquiert. Das Besondere ist der sehr persönliche Service: man bekommt eine Kühlbox, Strandequipment, Regenschirme, das Auto wurde täglich gereinigt und es gab Hilfe bei den Buchungen der Touren. Beim Frühstück werden Eierspeisen frisch zubereitet und es gab alles was wir uns zum Frühstück gewünscht haben. Preis-Leistung ist sehr gut und St.Lucia ein Highlight!
