Castries Hotel Guide - Vigie Lighthouse hotels in Castries, St. Lucia.

"It was an amazing experience! This was my first vacation and I definitely will be back. "

"Friendly and helpful staff, clean rooms, amenities and accommodated for food allergies. Celebrating anniversary at StolenTime was special. Breakfast, lunch and dinner we were greeted with a special welcome and decorated table. That morning started with Mimosa and ended the night with a bottle of Champagne that magically appeared in our room with a note wishing us a happy anniversary! Overall an excellent experience and so many talented artists entertaining us all in the evenings."

"My girlfriends and I had a wonderful action packed weekend here at the villaWe took advantage of several recommendations the host provided and enjoyed a chauffeured ride to the Friday night street party and danced in the streets. We also hired the private boat to take us snorkeling which was excellent. The villa was spacious and clean. The private chef welcomed us to the villa with a delicious local meal. We spent most of our time relaxing at the outside dining table enjoying the amazing view. We were treated like queens and highly recommend this home."

"We had a group of 8 family members in Secret Cove Villa for a week and had a great time. The owner, Rosemary, was welcoming and responsive to any questions and concerns we had. The view from the property was spectacular, the pool was clean and a good size (though no shallow end, for those with small kids), and the house was clean and well-decorated. The kitchen was stocked with cookware that allowed us to prepare some of our own meals. Those we didn't prepare were well-made by Chef James on site or by the chefs at the nearby Coal Pot Restaurant. The A/C units in each bedroom and the living room worked well when we needed to cool off. Gus arranged for a 12-seat van to drive us to Soufriere for a day trip (recommended). We felt very safe in the house.The few downsides of the property were really just functions of the location. The private beach is rocky and down some fairly steep stairs. We had fun snorkeling there. There is a nice, sandy beach with beach restaurants/bars about 1 km from the property. Castries is a cruise ship destination but has few restaurants or sights to see. Our group had two rental cars that we used to drive to Rodney Bay on a couple of occasions. Driving in St Lucia is an adventure in itself, especially on secondary roads!Overall, Secret Cove Villa is a terrific place to hang out with a large group, catch some rays, enjoy beautiful sunsets, and use as a home base to explore St Lucia."

"The facility is beautiful; exactly as shown. We very much appreciated time on the balcony watching cruise ships come and go; and a big shout out to 'Auntie B' who stayed late to meet us upon arrival and checked on us every day! She was helpful and attentive to all our needs and questions.Just a note for other seniors, the stairs can be a bit of a challenge especially with luggage, etc."

"This is a great property and the owner and staff are great. They drove us to Castries and to the store and were available and helpful on many occasions. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable and the sound of the waves made sleeping easy after a busy day. Catching a mini bus just outside the door was a great and cheap."

"Amazing communication "

"This stay in Castries, St. Lucia was absolutely wonderful. The host was beyond amazing and truly one of the kindest, most thoughtful hosts we’ve ever had. We arrived later than expected, and he went out of his way to take us to get something to eat, which immediately made us feel welcomed and cared for.Every detail of the stay was thoughtful and generous — from the snacks and care packages to the fresh mangoes right on the property and bottled water waiting for us while we got settled. Those personal touches made the experience feel special and incredibly warm.While the location is a bit quieter and away from the busiest tourist areas, we really appreciated the peaceful atmosphere and the chance to experience a more local side of St. Lucia. There is public transportation nearby, and despite being there just before the holidays, everything worked out smoothly.We truly enjoyed our time here and can’t say enough good things about the hospitality. This stay made our trip to St. Lucia even more memorable, and we would absolutely stay here again without hesitation."

"One of the most beautiful villas of the island! We loved everything about our stay - Val was an amazing host and helped us to create the best memories….everything is so thoughtful from welcome fruit basket to driver and excursions. We had the most special time! Thank you so much"
