The owner Dainelle was very responsive to our questions prior to arrival. Noeletta the housekeeper was there waiting for us with a freshly cooked dinner that we requested. It was great! The property was clean and as advertised. The pool and views were amazing! The semi-private beach was great albeit a bit of a buggy walk down to it but that is to be expected in June in St. Lucia. There were some decent waves and a bit of a current at the private beach but according to locals our week was a bit windier than usual. Still, my 12 and 14 year olds (who are pretty good swimmers) safely enjoyed swimming at the beach; they actually enjoyed the waves as many of the other beaches we visited were very calm. The property is gorgeous, very private, and quiet. We enjoyed the sunsets and watching the toads and bats in the evening. It is a 15-20 minute drive to just about anything. We enjoyed this remoteness. If you want to be in the center of the action this is not the place for you. But if you prefer a more authentic experience it would be perfect. We hired a private driver, Kevon, through Abnel car rentals (per Danielle's recommendation) and he was amazing. He was always available to take us where we needed to go and had some great recommendations. Do not miss eating at Mama Tilly's in Laborie -- we went for 3 meals :)
