An Exclusive Small Luxury Resort situated at Soufriere on St Lucia. In the top three most popular hotels in Soufriere, set on a luscious tropical hillside in 600 acres you will find the 49 room Anse Chastanet Resort.

It is a member of the Small Chic Hotels group and how well it lives up to that name. The Anse Chastanet Resort has two beaches, absolutely spectacular views not only of the turquoise blue ocean, but also of the Pitons. It is undoubtedly situated in the most breathtaking part of St Lucia. There is even a coral reef which has the reputation of being one of the best on St Lucia where you can snorkel for hours, and it is only a few yards from the beach.

An ideal destination for romantic couples, and honeymooners, or people who just wish to escape the pressure of the 21st century and modern life the rooms at this exclusive resort do not have telephones, televisions, or radios.

Be warned the road into the Anse Chastanet Resort is pretty awful, but this particular exclusive resort is more than worth it. You will be treated like royalty from the moment you arrive, and this makes you feel very special. For this reason, and this reason alone it makes Anse Chastanet a perfect destination for a honeymoon or an anniversary getaway. Here you have staff not only whose manners are impeccable, but they seem to like their job as well, and there are too many other places in the Caribbean, even St Lucia where that isn't the case.

You will find the food a lot better than average, not quite amazing but very good indeed. The menu at dinner is different every night, but you would be well advised to seriously consider the All Inclusive option, which is around $150 per person per day. It might seem expensive, but by the time you count in all your drinks and meal options you will save money.

The Anse Chastanet Resort considers itself to be an exclusive resort and one of the top luxury resorts in St Lucia, and most guests comments will bear this out. Ir was often described as the best resort in St Lucia, or more than excellent was another frequent comment. Several guests described the Anse Chastanet as an excellent hotel with great service.

There are always one or two people who will complain regardless, but the good reports far outweigh the bad, and dozens of returning guests cannot all be wrong.

Accommodation very often separates the everyday resort from the luxury resort. Anse Chastanet may be a small 49 room resort, but the accommodation units are way above average, which helps explain why it is one of the few real luxury resorts in St Lucia. All the rooms are very spacious with high ceilings, and individual with great attention to detail, and some even have living trees growing through them, and some have open walls so you can shower enjoying the view, and yet being totally private. Be prepared to sleep under a mosquito net, but that just adds to the whole atmosphere.

All in all, and space precludes further details Anse Chastanet is definitely an exclusive luxury resort, and one of the most outstanding small resorts in the Soufriere in St Lucia.
