The distance is very long to travel and the roads are not soo good. The place is very calming, peaceful, clean and has a lot to see. We went to the Hluhluwe Imfolozi Park which was a long drive but enjoyed every moment. The food from Reef Dune and John Dory's was amazing. We felt our weekend was very short but every moment was worth it.

Beautiful beaches and town.
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.
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!

St Lucia must certainly be one of the best small towns in South Africa. The character and charm is unbeatable. The locals are welcoming, helpful and just fantastic people. The choice of restaurants, curios shops, art and craft shops, the village market, wildlife in the town is amazing and simply wonderful!
The hosts Adrian and Marie offered a very warm welcome. Adrian told us all about the local area, he's lived in St Lucia most of his life, and helped us put together an itinerary for our 4 days there. He then booked tours and safaris for us and even loaned us his golf clubs free of charge. The breakfast provided by Marie was fantasic and varied every day. Only 5 minutes walk and we even saw hippos in the park opposite (Marie messaged us to tell us they were there). Excellent place, lovely people, highly recommend.
We had a fantastic time staying at AmaZulu. Not only is it conveniently located, with clean, comfortable rooms, a lovely pool and delicious breakfast, but are staff were exceptional. We felt welcomed and taken care of the entire time. They generously helped us book a fairly last minute river cruise, and provided helpful recommendations for other activities, and restaurants to visit in the area. We will definitely be staying with AmaZulu the next time we visit St. Lucia.
There was no breakfast. It is a self catering cottage. The apartment catered to all our needs.
When we entered the apartment, the aircon and lights were switched on which is amazing as we arrived at night and after a long journey, the cool, welcoming, well arranged apartment felt like a home away from home!
It was quiet and nobody bothered us. We would love to stay again but for longer next time!
Marlize & Johan really thought of everything & we had a very comfortable & enjoyable 4 night stay in St Lucia at Turaco. From the delicious breakfast to the very comfy bed, everything was thought of at a very high standard. You don't need to worry about load shedding as this is not an issue at Turaco. We would not hesitate to return.
Adrian went out of his way to help us with a great itinerary for our stay in St Lucia and was extremely helpful, even lending us equipment to enjoy a day on the beach. The room was very comfortable and nicely furnished, and breakfast was excellent. The surrounding area is very interesting and incredibly beautiful.
Got a very good deal for 4 days stay at the property. I had stayed in the other places in St. Lucia in the previous visits. The place is definitely worth its value, especially travel as a group. The rooms are clean and spacious, the kitench has everything you need.
Did not try the breakfast since I booked self catering. We will book breakfast the next time as most of the restaurants only open from 09h00, with the exception of Wimpy. After 09h00, there are plenty of options and the kitchen is well equipped.
Everything, big space, nice room, confortable beds, TV channels(TV is Samsung, channels a lot), swimming pool is big, friendly staff, easy booking for activities.
This place is forever the accommodation I will choose when I come to St Lucia.
I would recommend 31 The Bridge to any family looking for a self catering apartment in St Lucia. The place was very neat, secure and ideally located just outside the swimming pool. Everything mentioned on their site was provided accordingly.
On arrival, our unit was well prepared, clean and had all necessary utensils for self catering. The staff's hospitality and friendliness ensured that we felt at home....and oh, we loved the pool (given the heat in the area).
Nice hotel with very friendly host in the pretty town of St Lucia.. Whale watching and running into Rhinos in the street was an experience.. Having dinner at Reef @ Dune was very good
I really loved the style of place and the kindness of the owner! He was so careful about every detail… And breakfast was the best of my entire trip around South Africa!
