Well appointed villas with a beautiful view. Great breakfast included, and dinner available upon request. Just a short walk into town for groceries or dining. The staff was extremely kind and helpful.

My recent stay at Spice Bay was an overall delightful experience, earning it a solid four stars. The villa exudes charm and tranquility, providing a serene retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The accommodations were spacious and tastefully decorated, offering a perfect blend of modern amenities and classic charm. The attention to detail in the room's design and furnishings created a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The staff was friendly, accommodating, and always ready to assist with any requests, contributing to a warm and welcoming ambiance throughout my stay. While the villa excelled in several aspects. The breakfast options were limited, and the quality of the offerings fell short of the high standard set by the rest of the establishment. It would be beneficial for the management to consider expanding the breakfast menu and improving the overall dining experience. Despite this minor setback, Spice Bay Suites is a charming destination that offers a relaxing getaway for those seeking tranquility and elegance. With a few adjustments to the breakfast service, this villa has the potential to become a true gem in its category. I would recommend it to others looking for a serene retreat

We really appreciated the idyllic view of the space. There was a lovely view but no beach access, though the person who greeted us pointed us to a stairwell that was supposed to go to the beach. When we tried to go the stairs ended and we were lefte with a severely overgrown path that required hiking boot and long pants and shirts to treck through. The suite got was lovely, however the water pressure was very low when taking a shower. It also was twice the listed distance from Castries which meant a 1 hour drive and $100US cab ride from the airport in castries, which we were not expecting.

Staff was very accommodating. I was in town for work and so did not leave the property. The cook made me 3 delicious meals a day while I sat on the quiet, peaceful balcony working. By afternoon I could enjoy the pool. Restaurants are not very walkable, but it was easy to have a taxi called to get around the island when I needed to.

Nice Atlantic side apartment
The host, Matthew, was very friendly and helpful. The apartment itself was nice and clean with a beautiful deck and amazing view. This was our first night in St Lucia and a great place to stay on the Atlantic side of the island. The host provided a home cooked meal to us which was reasonably priced and wonderful, especially as the eating options in the nearby town were not very appealing to us.

A hidden gem. Our unit was perfect for us. The breakfast (and optional dinner) were made with love and pride (thanks Cathy and Verne!). Lots of stairs so a free mini-workout included with every stay. Highly recommended.

The best staff! They really took care of us with full professionalism. Location is away from all the touristy spot which we liked but at the same time pls note that you will be driving 45 min to an hour to the touristy spots which we didn't mind. We met the hosts once when we checked in but they have staff there that can help you with anything you need but at the same time provided us total privacy. Lastly, property was well taken care of with a beautiful views of the bay. Highly recommended.

The views were great and the hosts were kind. Good breakfast. The plunge pool stays chilly but it’s very nice. I could sit on the patio and listen to the wind for hours. The stairs to the apartments were really steep, this is not a great location for the mobility impaired. Be warned, even though they keep it clean, there will be bugs, this is very much surrounded by nature. I would stay again.

The property is very nice only thing is it’s very dim light in the room and no water or snacks which I think it needs to be successful. Other than that the staff was very nice very clean and the people that work there were very very nice and accommodating.

This is a guest house in a very remote location. They only open the bar if they have several bookings and even then, you drink what they have. Best to bring your own. When we arrived, we were greeted by a 15? year old as the parents were out for the night. The kitchen staff do make amazing local food. They do support with local secured taxi who makes sure you are safe in town. No issues of safety.

Exactly as advertised. Lovely property. More out of the way than I anticipated. Long ways to beach and restaurants, could not walk it. If you don't have a car you're at the mercy of local taxi drivers. Get price up front.

Lovely Property with Great Views. My wife and I enjoyed our stay and the host made us feel at home away from home. I forgot to mention that I was vegetarian and the chef was accommodating and prepared meals to suites. I will definitely recommend this property to anyone who love to connect with nature and love the outdoors.

Quiet and remote
The location is peaceful. 15 mins from hewanorra airport. I was the only guest so the pool and bar area was closed. There's no formal reception so it's difficult to get information if you have queries/ get taxi, etc. I rented a car which is probably recommended for this location that isn't close to piblic transportation. Rooms are as photos indicate. Kitchens not very well equipped. The balcony with view of sea/bay and mangroves is serene. Bring insect repellant and electrical adapter.
