What we like
Spread widely over the 250-year-old estate, the most scenic plantation on the island, are 19 one and two-bedroom, free-standing cottages. This is an incredibly beautiful place – one of the jewels of St Lucia.
What our clients say
Loved the entire experience! The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, they went above and beyond to make sure we had an incredible stay. The cottages are are a little rustic but extremely charming, our cottage was nestled up on the hillside with a beautiful view of the rainforest and a private plunge pool. A wonderful place to be instead of the beach.
Fond Doux Eco Resort
Set on a beautifully scenic plantation, this 250-year-old estate is an incredibly peaceful retreat surrounded by palms, bananas and breadfruit trees. Spread widely across the plantation are 19 one and two-bedroom free-standing cottages, each tucked away amongst the lush tropical gardens. Hidden within Fond Doux Plantation’s grounds are two lovely swimming pools, including a secluded multi-level pool that overlooks a palm-sprinkled valley, providing plenty of space to relax and unwind. Nature lovers can also enjoy exploring the estate’s own walking trail, which leads to a spectacular viewpoint overlooking Petit Piton, whilst the renowned Tet Paul Nature Trail is located just a short distance away.
At the heart of the plantation is an open-air, rustic restaurant serving a combination of Creole and international cuisine, with many ingredients sourced directly from the estate’s own fruit and vegetable gardens. Lunches are often served buffet-style, whilst evenings have a more intimate and relaxed atmosphere. You may wish to hire a car for at least part of your stay, although Fond Doux also provides a complimentary daily shuttle to the beautiful nearby Sugar Beach.
7 nights from £2,165 per person including breakfast.
