Anse Chastanet Resort

Just back from a wonderful holiday at Anse Chastanet resort and we can't wait to go back! The first thing to know is that it is built on a hillside and very steep so not ideal for anyone with mobility issues, although they do offer shuttles around the resort from room to beach etc. The staff are amazing, using and remembering your names, which was impressive. The food is like fine dining every day. Delicious!! The place is absolutely beautiful with a lovely beach. Nice little touches made us feel important to the resort. Highly recommended.

We have visited several Caribbean islands and stayed at many resorts. By far, St. Lucia’s Anse Chastanet is the best, most wonderful, most romantic place to spend a holiday. The island is lush, the weather consistently warm, the people well-educated and the economy prosperous. Built on the side of a mountain, Anse Chastanet was designed with imagination, style, luxury and beauty. The staff are friendly, helpful and many have work at the resort for decades. We loved our beachside grass-roofed cabana where food and drink can be easily ordered. The restaurants serve delicious and varied meals. And, there is much to do: snorkeling, a sailing-away, scuba diving, plantation tour plus the many places to visit on the island. We are already planning to return next year…but for a longer stay.

We dined at the Treehouse Restaurant. The service was good, the view was lovely, and the quality of what arrived was ok, but the portion sizes were absolutely laughable. $16 got me just ONE spring roll cut in half! And my $29 "large plate" of gnocchi was at most 4-5 tablespoons of food (though the ceramic plate was enormous, so not technically false advertising). To top things off even though our table was vegan, which everyone knew, I was served hot cows milk with my espresso. It's very hard to enjoy your meal when you've been fed something you don't eat for ethical reasons, and could be dangerous if you had an allergy. I could have looked past the mistake but our couples meal cost $150 and we left hungry.

Stayed here for a scuba trip back in September and had a blast. Some of the best customer service I've ever experienced. Great food and plenty of stuff to do when we weren't diving!

I never post reviews, but I had to make an exception for the Anse Chastanet resort. This place is truly one of a kind, and my wife and I recently spent the honeymoon of a lifetime here. Resort - The resort itself is located on a gorgeous 600-acre estate that’s shared with the Jade Mountain Resort (Voted the #1 resort in St. Lucia by Forbes!), perched up on a lush jungle mountainside with direct access to not one but two of St. Lucia’s most beautiful and secluded beaches, with some of the best coral reefs for snorkeling on the island. The entire compound is made to look like one big tree house, with most rooms having open air views of both the surrounding rainforest and Caribbean Sea. While most rooms don’t have air conditioning and it can get hot (especially in October), there are Beachside rooms that do have A/C in case you can’t live without it. But there’s nothing quite like waking up to tropical birds chirping in the surrounding canopy of a Hillside room as the sea gets lit up by the morning sunshine. Food & Drink - The food and drinks are some of the best my wife and I have had at a resort, and we couldn’t believe the quality with an All-Inclusive option. There are multiple different restaurants you can dine at, with constantly changing menus depending on what’s in season along with outstanding local seafood selections. The Anse Chastanet and Jade Mountain actually own an organic farm outside of the town of Soufriere (which you can visit) that supplies all of their fresh fruits and vegetables. We truly looked forward to every meal as well as the beachside rum cocktails. Staff & Service - But at the end of the day, it was the resort staff that made our stay truly extraordinary. For only 79 rooms across the two connected resorts, there are over 500 team members ready to make your day. From the moment we left baggage claim at the airport to the minute we were dropped back off at UVF, we were treated like royalty – as if we were the only ones staying at the resort! My wife and I have traveled quite a bit but we’ve never experienced service at this level before. Always greeted with a genuine, warm smile, there was no request too big or small for the staff. Two individuals in particular, Peter and Ryan, went above and beyond to make our stay that much more memorable. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind resort on St. Lucia that melds natural beauty, delicious food, and unforgettable staff, Anse Chastanet is an incredible find.
