We really enjoyed our stay at the property. It was perfectly located for our needs — just a 25-minute drive from the airport, a couple of minutes away from a beautiful local wild beach, and about 20 minutes from Soufrière, surrounded by stunning views and locations. It was also conveniently close to supermarkets, as well as local bars and grills.The property manager was outstanding — incredibly professional, friendly, and always just a phone call away, which made our stay even more enjoyable and stress-free.We would definitely come back and would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the local culture and vibe!
We loved our stay here. The apartment is spacious and well thought out. The backyard is a definite highlight. Overall, the property is much better than shown in the pictures. Would recommend a stay here!
The rental was fine and a case of you get what you pay for. The interior is well-loved - the floors & kitchen are worn but the bathroom is nice & spacious with a rain-head shower. Bed is very comfortable. The outdoor space is a little oasis. The pool is well maintained and refreshing if you're planning a little down time. The Host was responsive when we wanted to order in food. Our only suggestion would be to provide clearer & more timely directions on how to get to the unit, and check-in and check-out information, and other info like what to do with garbage (when renters are there for longer stays) etc. All in all, we had an enjoyable stay.
Our stay was amazing, and very peaceful. The hosts were very friendly and attentive to our requests. The hosts answered all our questions quickly…BEYOND HELPFUL. The place was clean and looked exactly like the photos. I would definitely stay again. Thank you for everything !!

We only stayed 1 night. it was close to the airport.
And close to coconut bay so we got to spend the morning in white sand!
the people are so kind and present for whatever we needed. Very accommodating in the sweetest way.
My husband and I had an amazing time in St. Lucia! The Island experience Samo was a perfect location for us and was very clean. The only thing that we suggest is more cooking utensils, baking sheet, glasses and pot holders. Over all we liked the place and Heather was quick with responses when we had a couple concerns.
Such an adorable villa, beautiful view from the master bedroom. The pool was a life saver! Heather was the utmost perfect hostess. She picked up some groceries for us before our arrival at my request. She arranged 2 takeaway meals for us for delivery to the villa, which were soooo delicious! She answered all my questions/requests in a timely matter. Conveniently close to a Massy and bank. Close to Soufriere too and the airport.

2 h road from castrie. It was not written and the road ….very dangerous
The terrasse is a bad because too old not like the pictures We were there people with two chairs …. Inside and outside ..The man who welcome us was very nice but it a need to refresh that guesthouse or to change the add Good place to visit south of st Lucia
We had a lovely stay. The villa was clean, well decorated and well maintained. The host was very available four our questions and needs. Situated relatively close to many attractions (15-20 minutes by car to Sugar Beach, sulphur springs, morne Coubaril estate, chocolate tours, Paul Tet hiking trail). We really enjoyed the backyard with the small pool and the cozy atmosphere.
Hot water was only available in the shower and AC in the bedroom. We also had a little bit of trouble finding the villa as google map sent us about 900 m from the villa

Room with a view
The property was nice. I loved the garden area and the bedroom which overlooked it. Definitely a room with a view first thing in the morning and at night when the lights lit up truly amazing. My only gripe is the standard of cleaning....its basic tidy but not really clean. Rubbish in the Chester drawers, under the bed was awful, Kitchen....I wouldn't cook in it. Not to my standard of what I'm used to. The shower has warm water which is a blessing though.
You could not ask for better hosts! Heather Jean and Emron were there any time you needed something. Went out of their way on several occasions. The birthday celebration started in style but I'm not going to give the details away. See booked the best birthday message my man has ever had. A deep sea fishing experience. Also helped with any questions on where to go. They by far exceed a 5 star rating. Thank you so much for a memorable birthday week for both of us.

The property managers were excellent, very responsive and very welcoming. The property isn't directly on the road, so you get some nice privacy and vegetation, but there is parking available. The location isn't in the typical tourist area, which was nice because you get to actually experience the culture of the island. The people of the island, including near the property were always very nice and welcoming as well. The property itself was beautiful and very relaxing, and something I would highly recommend considering staying here!
