La Bagatelle

Near Soufriere, St Lucia

Simply stunning fully staffed villa with a pool that will make you feel like a film star (sleeps 4-5)

Vast open spaces and spectacular views of the Piton mountains, Soufriere Bay and the Caribbean Sea make this brilliantly renovated upside-down villa a true gem. La Bagatelle's style is understated chic: white walls, antique beds, designer cotton fabrics, dark wooden floors polished to a mirror finish and not an inch of Caribbean florals in sight.

With 2 large bedrooms and an extra day bed, La Bagatelle is ideal for 2 couples, a family or decadent honeymooners. For those feeling vaguely energetic there's a tennis court to entertain you; for the adventurous, excellent diving and hiking opportunities are close at hand. But most guests will just want to relax at this beautiful and airy villa, indulging in the panoramic views and sipping cocktails by the crystal-clear swimming pool. And, with a housekeeper who prepares meals in advance, you won't have to worry about who's cooking dinner.

Highs

  • The interiors are simple but stylish
  • You can lounge on the four-poster day bed gazing at one of the most stunning views in the Caribbean - total bliss
  • There’s an outdoors-indoors feel - you could be on the deck of a ship
  • This is a peaceful setting on a colourful bougainvillea-clad hillside
  • You’ll feel cocooned in the antique four-posters, with their beautiful linen and gauzy mosquito nets
  • There’s a choice of self catering, catering, or half and half

Lows

  • There’s no air conditioning, but there are fans if you need them
  • The swimming pool is quite small - it’s for cooling off rather than serious exercise
  • Even if you’re super-fit, it's still a 15-minute uphill walk back from the nearest beach
  • If you’re looking for nightlife, you’ll be disappointed in sleepy Soufriere
  • You’ll need transport to see more of this gorgeous island, but be warned: taxis and car hire are expensive
