I had a lovely stay. The grounds are very lush and you can tell there is a lot of love going into it. The accommodation was great, bungalow was a good size. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had everything you need. The shower had good pressure and plenty of hot water. Thank you Andre for a lovely stay and all the useful information.

St Lucia is a break away from a busy city life yet you're still in a town. A beautiful place to be adventurous and yet relaxed. The town is small enough to walk around in and enjoy the ambience. The boat cruise on the estuary is awesome. The many restaurants serve good food too

The place was amazing and really peaceful, we enjoyed our stay, our bad encounter was actually with the manager on site not the host. This was due to a misunderstanding. Our stay was really great, restaurants were a walking distance and so we're the shops.

Beautiful beaches and town. Boat trip on the Estuary was lovely. Best part was the drive to Cape vidal. Saw plenty of wildlife on the way including elephant, rhino, Buffalo, different types of buck and warthog.

St Lucia is clean. I was walking at night alone and felt safe. Enjoyed the cruise with Fannas to see the hippos.
Enough restaurants to eat out.
No beggars on street corners or street children.
The beaches are clean.

Expensive small tourist town in which the majority of black people are there to work but do not live there and do not own much of the local economy, except being service providers. The St Lucia Wetlands Park Authority and other entities have a lot of work to do, to ensure black investment in the tourism sector as owners rather than servants. The racial and ethnical picture in the restaurants is very deplorable and has not changed much since apartheid. This makes the town, not the best place to visit for holiday. I would not visit for a long time for leisure to spend my hard earned black cash is an economy that is refusing to change. The private sector operating here needs to enjoin government efforts for economic transformation and support the diversification of the tourist sector - not by fronting but real transformation.

ST as we call it here in Joburg is a beautiful place with plenty to see an do if you have the transport. Walking around town is not a problem because it's "short and sweet' yet full of attractions, shops and restaurants just as in any self-respectful beach destination. Full of places to rest in and dine. Beaches need transport but in our country if you have no wheels you stay home! Trust me it's well worth it! UNESCO parks, Big (4) cos' no Lions allowed ;-) 25degC ocean water and a lots of fun! Activities can be found with a short search so I'm not going to go that deep.
And, to answer Booking.com's robot:
"What would you avoid on your next visit?"
A; My mother's snoring ;-)
Come visit ST...and prove me wrong!
This place is fantastic!
Esmerie and the team are extremely nice and helpful.
The room is great, clean, large and with a private patio.
Breakfast is exquisite!
The location is perfect ; close to the main street and the beach.
To top it off, they organized for us a safari tour in the game reserve nearby. One of our best memories in South Africa.
Comfortable and well located accommodation in St Lucia, 5min drive from the beach/estuary and 10min walk to the main bars/restaurants/shops. It is not luxury accommodation but it is clean, tidy, good value for money, friendly staff and well located. Buffet breakfast is decent but not amazing, but included in the room rate.
Lovely feel with the huts amongst the palm trees. Superb location. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was nice. Definitely one of the nicer boutique hotels in St Lucia. Highly highly recommend doing all tours and cruises with Shakabarker - they made our trip to St Lucia
