Our stay at Fond Doux was everything we hoped it would be. The setting is gorgeous: luxuriant tropical gardens filled with fruit and flowers, winding pathways leading to individual cottages, breathtaking views of the rainforest and valley from our cottage (Hilltop Guava) and the lovely pool area. As other reviewers have mentioned, the resort is very rustic and natural but...

A working cacoa plantation. Like most of the tours on the island, they were max 20min and often much less. We saw how they process the cocoa beans by stepping on them (called the "coco-rina"). Like most tours on the island, it was really short (< 20 min).

SWEET THANK YOU
Thank you for your short review on your hectic day. St.Lucia was fought over fourteen times by the French and English, therefore there are vestiges of french creole influences in our heritage.
It is a shame that you did not have the time to sample or partake in our restaurant where lunch is a leisurely affair and...

We loved our stay at Fond Doux! Falling asleep to the sounds of the rainforest was so relaxing. Swimming as you look out at forested mountains was breath-taking. There is no AC in the room, but the fan was more than adequate and helped to keep the bugs away. There is no TV or internet in the rooms, so you...

We only stayed at Fond Doux for one night, but we're sure to be back. We stayed in the smallest of the rooms (African Tulip cottage), and while I was expecting something small and run down, that was certainly not the case. The cottage was so cozy and the bathroom was large and nice. There was a deck on the...

I will note at the start that I bumped this up from average only because I loved the small cottage assigned to me, which might not be to everyone's taste. Whether original or "new" the accomodation on site really relects the ambiance and architecture of St Lucia, which most resorts here do not. Obviously great care has been taken in...
