Gone for a 4/5, as I think it's fair for the price - St Lucia is not a cheap place to stay and this was way cheaper than other places we stayed - so I judge it in that regard, which feels fair. If it was higher priced, I'd give it a 3 I think as it needs an update in a few areas. - Location is great, a nice little oasis of undeveloped land in the Marigot bay area. When it was first built, this place would have been incredible as the area would have been less developed. Note: you *have* to use a water taxi to get there, which can be a bit sketchy if you need to leave at a certain time. We felt this was just normal Caribbean time keeping, but might not suit everyone, ;-) - Pleasant, simple, breakfast included local fruits grown in their garden. They also provided something for us when we went out early one day, and served much earlier than usual another day, which was appreciated. Overall, they were flexible and helpful. - The restaurant on their dock looked interesting, but didn't serve anything vegetarian (seemed unusual in a very touristy part of the island). Plenty of other places nearby you can get a water taxi to, easily enough. Enjoyed the food in the Indian best I think. - Room was big enough for us, although as above, was a bit dated - could use a refresh. The plumbing needs an upgrade: it was the only place we stayed where you couldn't really drink the water, the shower was super temperamental (limited pressure, makes a huge noise in the pipes), and the toilet flush was really weak (a shame, as it meant we ended up wasting water with multiple flushes). Suspect there's no merit in upgrading that as it would be super expensive I'm sure, and I think the plot is up for sale in the future. It's not awful, just don't expect anything incredible from your shower/bathroom and you'll be fine. - There a fair few steps up to the property, so bear than in mind. Was fine for us, but choose somewhere else if access is important. - Their dogs are super friendly, and kudos to them for taking them in and giving them a nice life. As noted above, they're nice people. - Bring a hire car, driving in St Lucia is easy enough as the roads are quiet, and there's plenty of parking around.…
