Press Reviews
Of the number of plantation estates you can stay on in St Lucia, this is the most scenic. Coated in cocoa, nutmeg and breadfruit trees, thick swathes of palms, bananas and bamboo, and sprinkled with exotic flowers, the hilly, 135-acre, 250-year-old, bird-rich property is overpoweringly beautiful.
This secluded retreat offers guests a taste of simple, traditional island living.
For those who favor peaceful rusticity and historic charm over hermetically sealed, gadget-centric modernity—and really, on an island so lushly alive, why wouldn’t you?—a stay in a Creole cottage at this restored Green Globe–certified eco-resort should cure whatever ails you.
