Private Honeymoon Villa with View Of Caribbean & Piton Mountains, Full Service

Tamara was excellent, her omelets were exceptional and one of the best parts of our stay.

This place is a perfect getaway. We loved feeding the birds and lizards each morning while looking out over the Pitons. The ocean breezes made it cool at night (so no AC wasn’t even thought about). We walked to many fantastic places - Project and Hotel Chocolat, Drive in volcano (mud baths and view of “active” volcano), and Superman falls. Also, the manger arranged a driver for us during our stay who was very timely and got us where we needed without any hassle. Tamara was a great host and makes a smoothie for the ages. I totally recommend having her cook at least one meal as she prepares delicious local cuisine.

We stayed at the Hermitage Jewel for 7 days in September and it was absolutely fantastic. Tami started communicating with us well before our stay letting us know what we needed. When we arrived we were picked up at the airport by the wonderful Cletus. Once there we were greeted by Tami and given the tour. The property is up in the hills about 45 minutes from airport and about 15 minutes from Soufriere. The first thing that strikes you is the absolutely magnificent view of the Pitons. The view by itself is worth 5 stars. There are two houses close by but there are so much vegetation you don’t see anyone. The property has avocado trees, coconut trees, and so many beautiful plants and flowers. As we relaxed on the porch with some fresh made rum punch, Tami made us dinner. That service is extra but I can assure you it is worth every penny. Tami ended up making dinner for us two more times and every meal was delicious. Tami also made breakfast in the mornings which consisted of fresh eggs, fresh juice, and the best fruit I’ve ever tasted. I’ll never have a mango as good as we had in St Lucia. The house is open air (no air conditioning), so be prepared for some bugs and lizards, which my wife loved (the lizards not the bugs). The afternoons were a bit hot but the good news is the pool is only steps away and definitely cooled us off. Tami arranged for a rental car to be delivered, another great service Tami provided. It is definitely worth the expense if you are comfortable

We stayed at the property for five days in August and the view is one of the best on the island. The pool was lovely, and the lush foliage surrounding the property added to the natural beauty and sense of privacy.That said, the house itself is in need of significant updates—especially the kitchen, which is quite dated. The lighting in the home is poor, with many fixtures not functioning at all. The managers were aware of this and mentioned that an electrician was needed. The furniture is worn.The biggest issue by far was the insect situation. We knew in advance that bug spray would be necessary and used it around the clock, but it wasn’t enough. Between my husband and me, we left with an estimated 150–200 bites, mosquito and bed bugs. The mosquito netting upstairs didn’t fit the king bed properly—it hung open on both sides. The net downstairs had a large slit, allowing insects in. Tamara, the property manager, acknowledged the netting needed replacement and mentioned that what she had ordered didn’t fit. She said she planned to have a custom one made. Unfortunately, the downstairs bathroom was also full of mosquitoes at night, making things even worse.I’ve now been home for two days and am still suffering from the intense itching caused by the bites. I strongly recommend that the owners address these issues—particularly the pest control and basic maintenance—before renting the property out again. Until then, I would advise others to look elsewhere.
