    The weather, but that is life. No one could be blamed for that.

    The owner kept me abreast of weather predictions.

    Very quiet and comfortable property and cabin with great views from the pool deck. The pool is amazing to refresh yourself in the heat. Everything we needed was provided for, even service is included in the price! Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful! We had such a great time! Saint Lucia and especially its surrounding wild areas are incredible!

    Absolutely not suitable for four adults, only for a couple with two children. We booked as a group of friends, two couples. All rooms were very small and dark. The second bedroom had only small beds for children. We decided immediately to leave and booked another accommodation, Hilltop in Kingfisher Road with the same owner. That new place was beautiful. Our friends stayed in the Ocean View Lodge and enjoyed it.

    I was very disappointed by the garden and the view of the „ocean view „ cottage, we booked. We have the saddest garden and no ocean could be seen from the garden. It would be fair to mention it by the booking. All other cottages had nice gardens

    Leandra was very kind and helpful. She helped us to book a tour and she was always available and replied fast. The accommodation was generally nice and comfortable.

    There could have been a few basics like salt, pepper and sugar in the kitchen and a bit of shampoo in the bath.

    The cozy cottage had everything that we needed. The location was a highlight with a view from the pool patio over the forest and down to the ocean. It was a great place to drink a coffee and watch the sun rise. It was an easy walk down to the beach or into town. The beds were comfortable, there was a great barbecue grill in the garden and we appreciated having a TV to watch the Commonwealth Games. Monkeys came to watch us eat our breakfast.

    nice location and view, safe area, nicely decorated, very helpful and friendly owner. we were lucky and had a cabin next to the pool and viewing deck, which is better than the cabins near the gate, where the generator can make some noise during the load sheddings ( but way better than no electricity at all) recommended, would love to come back
