St_Lucia St_Lucia

This is a laid-back, 49-room resort and spa on the south-west coast with dramatic views of the island's landmark Pitons.

ROOMS No two rooms are alike: some are in pretty little cottages with wraparound verandahs, others are in more contemporary buildings integrated into the landscape, with a bathroom-tree here and an open-sided living room there.

FOOD The extensive kitchen garden services two restaurants: the Piti Piton and Treehouse Restaurant, which serves tropical 'world' cuisine, and the Trou au Diable beach restaurant.
