Reviews

Guest Reviews

This place was awesome for the family! A great advantage for me was that the place doesn’t have wild animals like other parts of St. Lucia. Also super affordable! Stargazing, rest and relaxation. Physical activity for all levels of fitness. We stayed at the environmental centre chalets, it had everything we needed. The host is sweet and kind. Innumerable tourist attractions nearby.
