Anse Chastanet

We went for our honeymoon. It was our first time in St. Lucia. Overall, our trip was very good to excellent in range. The only thing was that the rooms were not as cool as they ideally should be for sleeping purposes. The fans helped a lot and we were upgraded and it was a wonderful view (could NOT get more perfect of a view as it made our entire experience!) I think there were just a few nights when it was too hot once we woke up and during the day it was hard to stay there since it was too hot so we went down to the beach. The food was excellent. Most of our meals were 10/10. The service was also great and most everyone there was friendly and had a personality and smile. Overall, definitely recommend for a honeymoon. I just wouldn't be back again because I want to be in a cool room for my sleep. Perhaps others would be more comfortable! For context I am a New York native born and raised, and have also lived in Florida for 2 years, Scotland, UK for 1 year, and Wilmington, NC for 3 years. Noise level is fairly moderate but you will have nature noise. We loved that aspect and loved listening to the tree frogs chirping at night along with the birds. They do provide eye masks and ear plugs for your comfort but I never needed the ear plugs. The fans also made a nice white noise effect. The atmosphere was romantic and tranquil and very nature-focused. I'm not sure if it's worth all of the full thousands it cost to stay there. One might get a slightly more bang for their buck elsewhere, but I truly have no idea and haven't done the research. This is the only resort I've stayed at on St. Lucia. For additional context, I've stayed at Paradise Island, Bahamas at Harborside Resort Timeshares as well as the Atlantis hotel, The Vanderbuilt Resort in Puerto Rico, Lotte Hotel in NYC, but I've also stayed in budget friendly motels, standard mid-level comfort inns, and hostels all over the world. All in all, no regrets and would 100% have picked this again for our honeymoon!

What a fantastic get a away. Everything was amazing from start to finish. The most friendly staff of any resort I've ever been to. I wish I could remember everyone's names. Every meal was delicious, so many items to choose from, wish I had more days so I could try everything. Do splurge and book a dinner at Jade Mountain, best views on the island. Definitely eat lunch on the beach, and ask for a bucket of beers. Drinks at the bar were some of the best coctails anywhere. The beach was perfect, beds are plentiful. Mamin was sooooo relaxing. We got an upgrade to to a deluxe hilltop, incredible views super spacious the outdoor shower was to die for. Room was super clean. There's a lot of stairs but we took the shuttle a few times. I reccomend a sunset cruise, it was a super relaxing 2 hours. Very chill crowd, upscale patrons. Opt for the inclusive option, its well worth it. Cant wait to go back. Id like to say so much more but I think ill save it for a YT video review. Anything I didnt mention PM me !!! Thank you Anse for the best wedding anniversary, the resort touched our hearts 💕

I traveled to Anse Chastanet to go scuba diving with friends as we do every year. This dive resort far exceeded my expectations with the best food, service, and beauty. The beauty extends below the ocean surface and the beautiful palm tree beaches to the people working tirelessly to make our stay memorable. Everyone introduced themselves and within a couple of days knew our names and habits! The food is amazing and the menu changes daily - always a fresh fish available as well as pork, duck, beef, and chicken dishes. The variety of food was top notch. Our dive team of Kwame, Xavier, and Obo were amazing help and Xavier an encyclopedia of St. Lucia knowledge. The reefs are full of colorful sponges, many eels (Sharp Tail Eels), and a variety of small to medium fish. The dives are mainly drift dives and we had some major currents with a new moon phase. The resort also supports local musicians as we had a variety of of live music every night! I will definitely return and extend my travels beyond the ocean to the volcano areas!

I really don’t know where to start, our holiday at Anse Chastenet was absolute perfection for my family, I literally cannot fault anything about the resort! When researching our holiday I was quite specific about our requirements and it didn’t disappoint in any way! I was looking for a resort that was quiet, particularly in the evenings, as I require lots of sleep☑️l wanted somewhere that offered an all inclusive plan food plan ☑️this one being al la carte, which surprisingly we found to be so much better than constant buffets! I also wanted lots to do for my sons, aged 17 and 22, lots of tours and activities you could book at the resort ☑️ I also wanted a quiet beach with good snorkelling straight off the shore ☑️ When we arrived, after our transfer from the airport, by comfortable air conditioned taxi, we had a wonderfully warm welcome and were guided to ours rooms WOW! I had the Piton Suite ( the only one with a pool) which was wonderful with the most amazing views of the Pitons, and my sons had the adjoining suite with an inter connecting door! The accommodation was absolutely perfect,I was concerned before we arrived about the lack of air conditioning in the rooms but I really needn’t have been the ceiling fans and floor fans kept the bedrooms very cool! The rooms were spotless and the toiletries in the bathroom smelt absolutely amazing! The staff were all, without exception, extremely friendly and super helpful, I cannot fault the service. The food was absolutely delicious, lots of fresh seafood, and vegetables and fruit from Emerald Plantation which is owned by the resort. The desserts were amazing , often using the chocolate they make themselves! We were entertained in the evening by some extremely professional performers with quite wonderful voices ! The quantity and quality of excursions and activities available from Anse Chastenet is wonderful! The staff that organised the excursions were absolutely great they just couldn’t do enough for us! We did an excursion from the resort to visit the Volcanoe, and Botanical Gardens (included Diamond Falls and Suphur Springs), excellent tour guides and dip in the mineral springs! We went on a Whale and Dolphin watching trip on a catamaran, direct from the resort, we were fortunate to see lots of tropical spotted dolphins and flying fish but unfortunately no whales, but they are much less common! My oldest son did the Piton hike early one morning with a guide, organised by the resort, that he absolutely loved and took lots of photos so we could see the amazing views he had seen! My sons also did an ATV tour, this was run by an external company, but Anse Chastenet organised everything including taxis to get them there and back! We also did chocolate tasting and rum tasting, and chocolate making in the chocolate lab at Jade Mountain ( their sister hotel) which was extremely interesting, fun and delicious! We did book a helicopter tour of St Lucia but it had to be cancelled due to visibility issues, but managed to get a last minute airport transfer by helicopter when we left which was a magical experience, and well worth doing! The beach was lovely and quiet, enough sunloungers for all the guests under grass umbrellas! There is a drink and food service available for much of the day, just put your flag in the sand and the waiting staff will take your order! The snorkelling was exceptional so close to shore, you can borrow a mask, snorkel and flippers from the Dive Centre on the beach but we took our own, I have a prescription mask so I’m able to see!! There are 3 snorkelling areas roped off for safety, we saw green and hawksbill turtles everyday, numerous beautiful fish, squid, sea cucumbers and even a ray! It is so rare to have this experience direct from the beach, nearly all other resorts you need to take a boat trip to a snorkel location so this is, I’m my opinion, one of the biggest highlights of Anse Chastenet! There’s also the wonderful spa, my son had a head massage and full body massage that he found extremely relaxing! We had a wonderful dinner on our last evening at Jade Mountain, it is a totally breathtaking and unique resort which you really need to see for yourself to appreciate the architecture! I cannot recommend Anse Chastenet enough if you want a wonderfully quiet location, exceptional service, delicious food and a huge choice of experiences, and great snorkelling straight off the beach!

Our honeymoon at Anse Chastanet was a dream come true. Every day we were in true paradise. We had the most beautiful view of the Piton and the ocean. Our stay exceeded our expectations and the service was impeccable. Everyone at the resort was always ready to help with anything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and the live entertainment. Every artist was so talented. We will never forget the food. Every restaurant was delicious but Aspara was our favorite. The beaches were beautiful and we even saw a green sea turtle while snorkeling. It was the best way to start our lives together. Thank you to everyone who made our stay beautiful!
