Lovely stay in St Lucia
We had a lovely stay at the Sandpiper. Lovely location overlooking the garden and the reserve. Staff very friendly,the car wash was a lovely touch.My only criticism would be that the showers needs a good scrub with bleach, a bit moudly and needs attention. Will definately go back to a nicer bathroom unit.

The place to stay
Great place, relaxed and friendly. Yvonne is a perfect host and really went the extra mile to make sure that we maximised our time in St Lucia/Cape Vidal. She couldn't do emough. It's unfortunate that Hotels.com always select the cheapest room which is small and has no veranda. They really need to give booking options. We got an upgrade for one night but that was no thanks to Hotel.com

Wonderful staff and comfortable room
The best hotel staff I ever encountered, very patient with us and helped us a lot. Room is comfortable and clean. Breakfast is great. The only improvement I can recommend is for better WiFi. I would recommend the hotel to anyone.

HIPPO HAVEN
We lived this place. The breakfast was the best ever and although not on the Main Street of St Lucia it was in a beautiful setting with fantastic views. We woke early to see lots of monkeys from our room. The owner gave us great attention and our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer. You are advised not to walk around at night because if the hippos in the street but we didn’t encounter any on our walk back from the town. We did the hippo boat trip which is a must. The rooms are cosy and welcoming. There is a lovely beach nearby too.

Good, when you get there
Good accomodation and a wonderful host. The area has great wildlife very close to town and well organised sites. However, the road in is a disaster - road bumps to excess.

This is a nice guest house.
The guest house is in an idyllic setting. Rooms face out on a garden, each with a veranda. There is a pool and a park at the end where you can see otters, bucks, mongoose and monkeys. At night the only sounds are the waves on the nearby beach and the wind in the tress. The rooms are well equipped with nice bathrooms and tea coffee making facilities. The beds are fine too. The manager could not be more helpful with local knowledge and can pick out and book the best trips. The facility is very clean and the fellow guests Wee good company too.

A little piece of paradise
Fantastic guest house!! Woke up every day to enjoy coffee on my balcony with waterbuck, antelope, and monkeys strolling by. So peaceful, amidst beautiful tropical gardens. Whenever you are ready, the lovely ladies start to prepare your breakfast (however your heart desires). The food was very good!! There was filtered coffee, yogurt, juice, tea, milk, bread/toast, cereal for you to take at your leisure. Then, the ladies brought you a beautifully designed fruit plate. Next, your hot breakfast to order. We had eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, mushrooms, fried onions, and tomatos. Also, fresh avocados when available. I could get used to being spoiled like that!! The room was a beautiful and cozy retreat. There are also beautiful public areas available to use. Great sofas in the beautiful lounge with mellow music gently playing. Interesting books and games. Lounge chairs at the pool and sofas on the balcony. Add to that the fantastic welcome by Esmerie, we never wanted to leave!! Only one complaint...had a huge bed with high end linens but it was a little hard for me. Would be a good investment to get some nice pillow toppers for the mattress to complete the spa feel!! Top notch guest house...thanks to the staff for the wonderful stay!!

The host was great, she did everything she can to make our stay unforgettable. We didn't book any activity in advance, but she helped us to organise a safari to Hluluwe national park and a hippo boat tour. We would definitly recommend this place.
