Rainforest Adventures St. Lucia

Excellent host! Great little apartment

We had a great stay at Castles in Paradise. We stayed in Villa 7 which has its own private pool with a beautiful covered, shady patio as well as 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. There is a beautiful view of Savannes Bay from the villa. Bonnie, Giselle and Avril made us feel welcome and provided advice about things to see and do on the island. They really provide top notch customer service. You need a car here so you can see the island. The resort is about a 10 min drive to UVF airport. There is an amazing fine dining restaurant near the airport called Fayes Gastronomie Artisan which is not to be missed. Fayes also has a gourmet market where you can buy high quality provisions for your stay. Fayes has meats, fish, fruit, vegetables, snacks, drinks and a wine shop so you can stock your fridge at Castles in Paradise (our villia had a full kitchen) in case you don't want to eat out all the time. There are also local grocery stores. There are also beach bars/restaurants about 10-15 min away and also Kayak on the Bay about 20 min in the other direction in Praslin for a wonderful activity. This is a great place to stay in St.Lucia if you prefer a quiet peaceful property away from the more touristy crowd in the north of the island. We drove to other parts of the island but if you don't feel comfortable driving on the left on curvy roads, I think you can hire a driver for your trips away from the property.
