Anse Chastanet Resort

Simply beautiful. Breathtaking! Relaxing and rejuvenating resort with the most tasty meals I've had at a resort. Upon arrival we were greeted by a very friendly host who provided us with our keys and phone (yes a private phone). We were then taken to our suite (we chose to walk to take in the beautiful scenery), and from there I knew then we would be returning. Our suite had the breathtaking view of the Pitons and I don't know any other way to describe it other than AMAZING. And if that wasn't the cherry ontop of this amazing experience, there is the beautiful sunset view from the sitting area in the suite. So many spots I can point out, so many beautiful staff I can thank (Peter Jn Paul and so many others). I will say this, if St. Lucia is on your bucket list, it's time to check it off and if you want an experience and a stay to remember, Anse Chastanet should be your first choice.

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. Ever
