What can we say? Just a great time to be there.

We were looking for a nice, unique accommodation on St. Lucia - and found it with "Nature´s Paradise". Wanda and David were very friendly and helpful.
The two Cottages (we had the Avocado Cottage) are so beautiful and clean...and the wooden porch is just a dream. We did not miss anything!

The house is located in a quiet area on a hill and we felt very comfortable there. Nature´s Paradise is a good starting point for excursions around the island - which is why a car (4WD) highly recommended. David and Wanda also give valuable tips - and if desired, they also offer interesting tours.

From Nature´s Paradis to Marigot Bay is a walk about 20 minutes.There you will find everything for a successful holiday (grocery store, bank, restaurants, cafes). Back, it is a steep walk, for it takes about 30 minutes. Important: In the dark, take a torch! But do not worry - this is also fun!

Yes, we would choose it again...but for longer! Thank you, Wanda - thank you, David.

My husband and I went to St. Lucia for the first time over Christmas and spent weeks researching places to stay. We were looking for an intimate, boutique property with an incredible view and we found all that - and much more - at Nature's Paradise! The owners, David and Wanda, could not have been more helpful or hospitable. From the moment we arrived to St. Lucia, where a driver David had arranged was waiting to pick us up (on Christmas Day no less!), we felt completely at home. If you are looking for a large, all-inclusive resort with tons of amenities and no interaction with the locals, then please stay at Sandals....there's three of them on the Island! However, if what you are looking for is a unique, one-of-a-kind experience on the beautiful island of St. Lucia, then I can't recommend Nature's Paradise highly enough.

The property is surrounded by beautiful, lush foliage providing privacy and a true tropical feel. From the pool, you have a breathtaking view overlooking the Caribbean Sea and my husband enjoyed swimming a few laps here every morning. Breakfast is served promptly at 8 a.m. each weekday and we thoroughly enjoyed the spread of fresh, local fruit (papayas, pineapple and grapefruit, oh my!) cheese, coffee, tea and homemade bread baked by Wanda. It was a perfect way to start each day in St. Lucia and we valued spending this time with David and Wanda and the two or three other couples who were staying at Nature's Paradise (there's only four guest rooms on the entire property). We would all swap stories from the previous day and share recommendations for tours and activities we enjoyed. After breakfast, my husband and I would head out on a different adventure (many either recommended or coordinated directly by David). From ziplining in the rainforest to sailing along the Southern coast of St. Lucia to hiking Gros Piton, St. Lucia has so much to offer and we tried to take advantage of it all!

Finally, probably one of our favorite things about Nature's Paradise was the fact that there were no TVs in the rooms/cottages. WiFi and cell service is very spotty, as well, though there is a computer in the Great Room that is available for guests to use and access the internet. However, for us, having an opportunity to truly "disconnect" was the best thing we could have possibly done. It allowed us to completely enjoy our time in St. Lucia, and with each other, and we returned home to NC six days later feeling relaxed, rejuvenated and totally stress-free. We hope to recreate this experience and return to St. Lucia very soon and when we do, we will definitely be returning to Nature's Paradise!

Rest, Relaxation and Recuperation - what a perfect trifecta served up in Nature's Paradise. When my wife was diagnosed with cancer at the beginning of the year a doctor friend gave us a piece of advice: this was going to be a long haul so you need to create a light at the end of the tunnel, something to look forward to. Our daughter surfed the net for any place that met the criteria Worry-Free and Warm and found Nature's Paradise in St. Lucia. Come the Fall, the reality matched up to the billing. Avocado cottage overlooking the luscious expanse of Marigot Bay, with Martinique in the distance, was a paradise within Paradise. Fabulous fresh-fruit breakfasts, swimming in the pool surrounded by gorgeous tropical vegetation and walks down to the bay and the beach (and back up!) were all part of a beautiful, quiet, restorative two weeks. David and Wanda were delightful hosts, brimming with helpful knowledge and advice and amusing anecdotes (but not in the least bit intrusive). If you are looking for air conditioning, watching football games on the wide screen and hanging out at the bar, this is not the place for you. For those who love fresh food, fresh air, energetic walks, double rainbows and uninterrupted reading heaven then you too will have found the light at the end of your tunnel. Just what the doctor ordered!

You will either hate or love Nature's Paradise.

If you like TV in your room, bar, disco, on-site restaurant, 5 minutes walk to the beach where there are lots of other tourists just like you and all inside a security fence where the only St Lucians you meet are staff, don't bother - you will hate Nature's Paradise.

If you want a quiet, beautiful oasis set in a semi-natural garden to match the best on St Lucia, and where you can watch hummingbirds, with views across the Caribbean to Martinique, then Nature's Paradise is for you. A small pool - which you'll have to yourself much of the time - gives you views across the Caribbean. Lesser Antillean Bullfinchs will expect to be fed - and if you don't, will probably help themselves, there are some enormous butterflies and moths, at night geckos and frogs, the occasional possum and watch out for the large hermit crabs, wandering through the gardens.

While your own transport isn't essential, it's probably a good idea, at least for part of your stay. There are a range of facilities down the hill in Marigot Bay itself - several restaurants, a small beach with a range of water sports facilities, a small supermarket and an ATM. The track down to Marigot Bay is rough and steep in places but a fairly easy 20 minutes walk down and 30 minutes walk up - as you're on holiday, the walk really isn't a problem. Take a torch if you think you might walk it at night - which we did several times; the walk up after dinner, looking up at the Milky Way and listening to the tree frogs and cicadas is worth it.

David and Wanda are friendly, very helpful and very knowledgeable about St Lucia. They will happily make reservations for you as you want, organise tours, etc. But, really, the best thing to do it get your own vehicle and just drive off and explore St Lucia. You will certainly get lost from time-to-time. Despite being a small island, the lack of road signs and maze of small roads means you need to allow plenty of time to get where you want to go but who knows what you'll discover on the way. In any case, all the locals, despite the dreadlocks, really are very friendly and helpful and will happily give directions - and chat to you about where you're from and where you're going.

A wonderful place.
