The house is very spacious and it worked perfect with the 4 bedrooms for our group of 7\. Lena, was very attentive to any issue that came up and she took care of the one issue with the AC the next morning. We would not hesitate to stay at Lena's house if we return to St. Lucia or recommend her place to family or friends. ##### Mark F. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Guy P. 21 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home, lovely host Lena’s place is in a great location with beautiful views at the front and back of the property. The home is spacious and very well equipped. The pool is a great size and was a hit with the family. The gardens are a good size and well maintained - we even ate some breadfruit from one of the tree’s there. Lena is a very attentive host and responded promptly to all enquiries she also made suggestions throughout the holiday on things to do and places to eat. St Lucia is a lovely island and the people were so friendly and helpful. We would love to stay at Lena’s place again. ##### Guy P. Stayed 14 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joanne L. 19 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful, private, gracious home near Rodney Bay This large home with a sizable pool, multiple verandas, and two masters was a delight. We had a couple of glitches, managed very quickly by the owner. There are no pets and a mostly quiet neighborhood. Guests need to be fairly skilled drivers to get around in St Lucia, or use cabs/guides/drivers/minibus. The roads are not for the timid. This place is very near a good grocery and a cinema (for really rainy evenings, perhaps) and only about 12 minutes drive from Rodney Bay and Gros Inlet. Good TV reception, strong internet, and both kinds of electrical outlets made it easy to move right in. ##### Joanne L. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Sarah D. 10 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### House in Corinth Lena is really nice. Lovely and spacious house with very good AC in the bedrooms, however, living, dining and kitchen were very hot. Big fridge and washing machine is a bonus (washing powder is provided). There were plenty of towels provided and the mosquito nets over the beds are very helpful. The gardens are beautiful, but unfortunately one side is overlooked by a work yard. The house is well located for exploring the north of the island. ##### Sarah D.

Lena was the best hostess and went above and beyond what was necessary. Yhe home was very clean and met our expectations and then some. Our driver Anthony was so incredible. He was always there when needed and was ao accomodating. Overall wonderful experience but most of all we fell in love the the people of St Lucia. Thank you for making our trip such a memorable one!! ##### Kelly M.

Lena was a wonderful host who checking in on us every few days to make sure we were ok and ask if we needed anything. The location of Villa is ideally situated and very private, I would definitely recommend this place to my family and friends ##### Nita K. Stayed 10 nights in Dec 2021 ---
