Beach was pretty and little used. The road on the other side of the villa was noisy. The restaurant on site was a bonus, with food made to order. The mini-store on site was useful. Staff was friendly. Manuals for appliances would be helpful.

Directed bedside lamps are always better for couples who have different sleep schedules. Showers should always have mats for traction and grab bar. The smart tv was useful. Restaurant was expensive. The staff tried to dissuade me from using minivan taxis, but they were very convenient and very inexpensive. Also was dissuaded from walking to the movie theater, which was easy. A few more condiments in the kitchen would be useful.

Staff is very nice and welcoming , the beach is nice and you are on the beach which is amazing We liked that you can have kayaks and paddle boards

You are on the highway so you can hear and smell it The restaurant is expansive and food is not that great

A fantastic location for a relaxing vacation with the ocean literally right outside your door. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

As many other reviews have mentioned, you really need a car or rely on taxis. Very little within walking distance. However, this isn't meant to take away from the great review, just a heads up to future travellers.

it was close to Castries airport (5 minute drive) so worked well for a stopover.

The main road runs right past it. If you have a sea facing room the sea drowns out the road noise but in the rear rooms road noise is prevalent

The cottages are self contained apartments really and are beautiful, well stocked and furnished. It is right on their own private beach. A few strollers from the cruise ships were no issue at all. Ships dock well away from the VBC. Grounds are immaculate and so pretty. Staff was friendly and helpful. The ceiling fan in my kitchen stopped working and they replaced it the next day. I had groceries delivered and everything was perfect and exactly as I had ordered. I’d go back for sure.

The sea was fairly rough during my stay. The water was churned up and not clear. But the beach is clean in front of our place and no grass or sargassum. My only small complaint is it is far from the airport but my taxi drivers were friendly and full of information and history about the island.

Detached honeymoon suite with private terrace and separate private balcony with outstanding sea view - beautiful sunsets. The beach was stunning; the sound of the waves; the service, the little shop; the pool area, the small size of the property. Food excellent! Very relaxing.

Bathroom definitely needs updating, and needs to include room for storage. Plenty of drawer space but the tiny old-fashioned wardrobe was insufficient for our needs, especially for anything long which we had to hang over the window frames. A dishwasher would be good - it is a holiday, after all! Front of property on very busy road so best to go out in a taxi.

It is right on the beach . Just a few steps onto the beach & the warm sea. The complex was safe & secure & perfect base for exploring the island. The staff are helpful & very pleasant . There was more water sports kit than I thought. free use of open sea kayaks & paddle boards. Decent fins & snorkels we borrowed them to take snorkelling trips to smugglers cove , pigeon island & sugar beach. It’s not super plush but clean , comfortable & well equipped for self catering. It’s a small intimate resort if u want all inclusive 5 star luxury this is not for u. We were a party of 7 in 2,villas & thought it was excellent .

It is next to a busy main road but beachside you don’t notice this. A car is wise it’s not so easy to get about without one. It also allows you good access to Rodney bay. Smugglers . Pigeon island all the Northern sites.

A beautiful start to our honeymoon, the staff are all so friendly and welcoming and we thoroughly enjoyed speaking with Collin. Austin who we hired the car from is also a superstar and the price was super competitive compared to others on the island. It was a fantastic stay, the rooms are huge and well equipped and the view is gorgeous, we even got to use the kayak to the small island we could see on our balcony. The cooks are amazing and so talented best curry I had was from here and the bakes, salt fish and banana bread for breakfast was beautiful. Thanks for a wonderful stay

I would have really loved a bar that provided snacks/ drinks throughout the day rather than the bottles from the mini shop. You definitely need a car if you stay here although they will book you taxis.

Loved the incredible closeness to the beach and sea, as well as the pool. Absolutely gorgeous view from the room. The beach and water were pristinely clean and clear and the shallow water was calm and lovely to walk, float, swim and snorkel in for hours. Our room had a beautiful white vaulted ceiling over the huge (and very comfortable) bed. Everything was well maintained and extremely clean. The kitchen had everything we could need to prepare our own meals. The large balcony was lovely for eating meals or lounging with the stunning view. The free loan of snorkeling and kayaking equipment was much enjoyed. Being able to kayak around the bay and around Rat Island was great. The location was very convenient for accessing grocery shopping and sightseeing spots. The staff were outstanding - extremely friendly, helpful and responsive. The ambience of the property was upscale yet cozy and truly felt like a family business welcoming guests to their home. It was fun to chat with the other guests over our stay as we all enjoyed this beautiful place.

The only minor annoyance is the proximity to the highway - so there is noticeable traffic noise at times (but the tradeoff of being in that exact spot on the beach far outweighs that concern!). The on-site restaurant is tiny and limited (e.g. we had to walk to the "mini mart" to purchase a bottle of wine to go with our dinner) - however we selected this spot because of the full kitchen and proximity to grocery shopping and didn't expect an on-site restaurant so it was a nice treat.

The beach here is one of the best on the island! The water itself isn’t as clear as other places but if you’re a person that enjoys water without debris and soft sand without rocks or shells this is the place bar none! The property is directly on the beach and offers incredible views and sounds of the waves while sleeping. You are directly on the loud two lane highway however if you have a room that is closer to the ocean like we did you don’t hear the road noise at all. The cottages have so much character and are so well maintained! Super clean and comfortable. Colin is an excellent host and sits you down to hear the history of the property and his recommendations. You are also super close to supermarket for groceries and nearby coffee and breakfast at Rituals if you choose not to enjoy it from the onsite restaurant. You are also close to very good beaches and restaurants up north that are only 10-15 minute drive.

The restaurant on site is more like a home kitchen with a private cook. Take that as you will. Traffic on St Lucia is a terror given only one or two highways that all residents use to get to and from work. Due to the location of villa beach we frequently were caught in traffic. A 30-40 minute drive to get home when if you were able to walk it would have taken 20 min just due to location of roundabouts etc but this is more a complaint for St Lucia infrastructure not about villa beach cottages.
