The place to stay
Great place, relaxed and friendly. Yvonne is a perfect host and really went the extra mile to make sure that we maximised our time in St Lucia/Cape Vidal. She couldn't do emough. It's unfortunate that Hotels.com always select the cheapest room which is small and has no veranda. They really need to give booking options. We got an upgrade for one night but that was no thanks to Hotel.com

Wonderful staff and comfortable room
The best hotel staff I ever encountered, very patient with us and helped us a lot. Room is comfortable and clean. Breakfast is great. The only improvement I can recommend is for better WiFi. I would recommend the hotel to anyone.
