    Absolutely nothing to comment

    Gawie is the true reflection of what hospitality should be. From the time we made the reservation, he assisted us with such an amazing hippo and croc safari from ShakaBarker (which in my opinion was one of the best you can go on, I’ve been on a few and Kian was by far the best guide to have - he was so knowledgeable about everything), as we arrived we encountered some car troubles but left the property immediately to go on the boat cruise and Gawie had organized to have it seen to, then he had made reservations at Reef and Dune on our behalf and especially organized for us to have a table facing the road (for hippo sightings of course). Overall, we had a fantastic time. The views from the terrace are so beautiful and our room was lovely and so comfortable. Thank you for an incredibly memorable stay, we will be back most definitely!

    Nothing.

    Very welcoming hosts and we were shown around the pool, viewing deck and to our cabana. The cabana has a well equipped kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom with sink, toilet and shower and a lounge. There is great private patio and bbq area - well lit, with table and four chairs, The property is about 3/4 minutes from the restaurants and shops in St Lucia. Unfortunately it rained heavily for most of our stay so we didn’t go for breakfast up at the main lodge.

    Everything was great.

    The stunning views and great location of this lodge. Friendly and hospitable staff especially Gawie the manager. Very generous hosting with biscuits, rusks and chocolates on pillows in the rooms. Stunning artwork everywhere. Breakfast was outstanding. We found our "go to " place in St Lucia. Special thanks for the birthday treats for my daughter.

    Spotlessly clean Cabana. Views from Communal area are great

    • Family with young children
    • Two-Bedroom Suite
    • Stayed 3 nights
    • Submitted via mobile

    It was not clear from the posting whether we had a view - so this did not match expectations. Our bed needed replacing, noisy and damaged. The cabana could have more atmosphere with art that reflects the area and was warmer in mood, a bit clinical. Advice from the manager did not match expectations- advised us to pursue the walk to Estuary beach which was littered thickly with sugar cane from a flood and totally unwalkable - after a long walk to get there. Note to be home and finished walking by dark as hippos walk at night and could attack outside the water.

    The view from the communal balcony, tea and coffee service all done with love. The cleanliness of out unit was 150%, perfect! We had all we needed in the unit, and our four year old loved the tv , the single bed in her room was comfortable and she slept well. Our car was parked right outside the cabana so felt safe. The garden and cleaning staff were friendly and did their jobs excellently. Hot water and very fluffy new towels - thank you! Excellent advice from the manager to go to Cape Vidal for the day what a wonderful combination of excellent game viewing on the way and a beautiful beach (albeit with basic toilets and no access to food/restaurant at all, prep your own food, sandwiches). Our boat ride with Fannas was excellent but we booked this ourselves as the Ndiza offering was more expensive.
