Concierge.com's insider take:
A village unto itself, this 33-room cluster of gingerbread cottages spilling down a hillside (far) south of Castries is delightful for anyone wanting peace and quiet, a good beach, a spot of diving, and a cute little home of their own for the duration. Rooms take up an entire cottage, or half of a duplex, and all have big verandas with hammocks-for-two, alfresco showers, air-conditioners (though most people just fling open the shutters) and—in the best ones fronting the beach—private plunge pools. It would be impossible to object to their whitewashed walls, white bedcovers and drapes, terracotta-tiled floors and wooden shutters. There's a scuba center headed by a native St. Lucian who knows the island's sites like the back of his hand, and a pool for the less adventurous. The two on-site restaurants (one's a casual beach bar, the other is more formal) are very good—all-important in such a remote spot.
