Nov 18, 2024There's No Place In The World Like Anse Chastanet
Last December, my wife and I booked our first stay at Anse Chastanet... after an incredible trip, we said "we never come back to the same spot twice, but we might have to make an exception..." Cut to November 2024, less than 1 year since our last trip, and we returned to Anse Chastanet for another beachy, easy-breezy beach vacation! I had to share what a wonderful experience this was: The Hotel Situated on the side of a cliff overlooking the ocean, the hotel itself is a work of architectural genius. With non-slip stone on everything, rooms with hand-built wooden furniture, views that will take your breath away no matter where your room is located, and a feeling that every single stone, log, tile was placed intentionally. It's considered a world standard for a reason. One important note: being on a cliff, there's a bit of walking required. If you have mobility issues, you should definitely alert the staff when you book, and they'll ensure your room doesn't require too much movement. For getting to and from the beach (at the bottom of the cliff) there are on-demand busses which will whiz down and scoop you up. The Food & Drink The food here is truly world class, and if you're doing the All Inclusive, the meals are generous and ever-flowing. Pro-tip: every single salad on the menu will be one of the freshest, crunchiest salads you've ever tasted. They grow most of their own produce and other kitchen staples in their 100 acre farm! Drinks are equally fresh, and I highly recommend the Frozen Coco Loco! Also, the breakfast buffet every morning is a fun and fresh way to wake up, with buffet fresh fruits, juices, breads, cheese, smoked salmon, oatmeal, and more... you can pair this with a larger breakfast item like an omelette if you want! The Beach This beach is... there's no where else on earth quite like it! You won't get those white sand beaches you get from coral islands (This is a volcanic island) but the sand is still soft and pebbly with only a small ridge of larger stones as you enter into the water. The water is extremely warm this time of year. There are also first-come-first-serve little beach-hut type situations, which feature two lounging beach chairs and a large cover from the shade. The towel service will get you all set up each morning, and you can camp out on the beach all day with drinks and snacks flowing from a dedicated waitstaff on the beach. Returning Guests Also, though we didn't know this when we were booking, they HOOK IT UP for returning guests. They truly remember you from trip to trip, and if you come more than once you're treated like an integral part of the Anse Chastanet circle! We got a beautiful room upgrade just for returning, and many other little treats and comp'ed surprises. We can't wait to come back for our THIRD trip soon! The Staff Finally, and I truly mean this, the number one reason to come to Anse Chastanet is the staff. From the waitstaff to porters to management, this is a truly special group. Everyone is so warm and welcoming and attentive. Be nice to them! Talk to them! Get to know them! Ask how their day's going! They're wonderful and so nice, and when you develop a rapport with the staff you'll have the experience of a lifetime! They're all so nice and work so hard, and deserve all the accolades, respect, and TIPS! Special shout out to: Peter Jean Paul the manager (his intro tour of the property is a MUST), Marilyn and Zephrita who work at the restaurants (and the rest of the lovely waitstaff), Lovence the porter, Sakey the art teacher (who's murals grace pretty much all of St. Lucia, and who teaches classes every tues and weds!), and Junior from the beach-side towel and setup crew! I could go on and on, but if you've read this far you know just what an impact this beautiful resort has had on us. They've done such a wonderful job, and have made lifelong guests out of us! We can't wait for trip number 3 (and 4, and 5, and...)

A wonderful experience
A great experience at a wonderful resort. The restaurants have a pleasant atmosphere and the menus offered a variety of delicious items. The The dive operation and staff were top notch. We did the plantation tour, and the Gros Piton climb both were great experiences.

Nov 10, 2024Be prepared for the heat
Great service, very friendly staff, good food. The downside was a swelteringly hot room with no ventilation. The bathroom was even hotter. After a shower, it was unbearable. While we enjoyed our visit, the hot room made our stay regrettable.

Great place for an all inclusive day on the beach.
We visited for the day - and we paid the all inclusive £140 dollars for a nice little spot on the beach and this meant we ate twice and drank all we wanted - incredible value. The beach is stunning and the sunset from the pier with the views are not to be missed.

Nov 04, 2024Anse Chastanet
This destination is a great place to visit if you like the natural side of St. Lucia. We stayed at Anse Chastanet instead of Jade Mountain. The resort resembles tree houses. We did the Anse Mamim Plantation walk; Gros Piton, snorkeling at the base of Gros Piton and visited the volcano, mud bath, Botanical Gardens and mineral springs waters. The people are very friendly and the food was delicious. You have to be in great shape at Anse Chastanet, there are 126 steps from the beach level up to the restaurant, it’s a great workout or you can take the taxi up. The veal chop was the best dish. Veal is hard to find in Georgia. The PEPPERMINT TEA with HONEY is the best I have ever tasted. Their honey is not heavy and taste different. We loved it so much, we asked for some bags of tea to go. We paid for a small jar of honey. Anse Chastanet needs to package that tea and honey and sell it.
