MODERN LUXURY - 2 BEDROOM VILLA WITH A POOL & SPECTACULAR OCEAN & PITON VIEW

We arrived at Villa Eluna in the daytime. We were greeted by the lovely Jennifer who gave us a quick tour of the house. When we arrived all of the windows and doors in the villa were open. The breeze was lovely and the view was absolutely to die for!! We couldn't take enough pictures of the Petite Piton and the Caribbean Sea. Sunsets were magical. The pool is big and again faces the Piton and the Sea. We spent so much time in the pool and just lounging around by the pool.

The Villa is modern, cool and nicely designed. We loved the way the concrete floors juxtaposed with the traditional louvered windows and the lush landscape. Even the path behind the house was pleasant to walk along. The kitchen is great - You can fix your eggs while taking in that amazing view. Keep the windows closed while lighting the burners though - the breeze can sometimes blow it out.

We obviously chose to sleep in the master bedroom closest to the pool. Both rooms are big and the bed we slept in was very comfortable. The en suite has a shower for two and a view to the pool and the piton. The bedroom also has a walkout right to the pool - the first thing my husband did every morning was swim.

We cooked a lot. At least breakfast everyday. And then we discovered Chef Basil. We had him cook a Creole meal for us. Needless to say it was sensational. You must get Chef Basil!! Ray the Gardner brought often brought us fresh fruit from the property - he was very sweet.

We only went out twice. Once to Dasheene restaurant in the Ladera Hotel, which we liked a lot and once to the Great Room at Sugar Beach, which we loved.

This was our first non-hotel vacation. We are converted. Villa Eluna is amazing. The staff friendly and nice. We tried to stay an extra week but the villa was booked.

Until next year!

Undoubtedly, the island of St. Lucia is my new favourite place to vacation, and my stay at Villa Eluna is largely responsible for my new affinity! My fiancé and I just got back from our trip and it was wonderfully relaxing and romantic.

The villa is simple but very beautiful. The fact that it is so open and airy is my favourite feature of this place. With recently updated major appliances, this made our stay comfortable and easy. The grounds are lush and very private, and the picture-perfect view of the petit piton is breathtaking. The pool was always clean and the perfect temperature to help keep you cool, especially in the hot and humid late afternoons. The beds are very comfortable

The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Ray the gardener would often leave us freshly cut fruit in the morning outside the back door, still warm from the sun! Jennifer the housekeeper is always cheerful and was a joy to have around. Her attention to all the small details (i.e. fresh flowers daily in the bedrooms atop freshly laundered sheets, etc.) and the cleanliness of the villa was much appreciated by us.

Staying at Villa Eluna is a guaranteed stress-free, easy-breezy relaxing vacation experience. I highly recommend it.

We had such a nice, relaxing time at Villa Eluna in St. Lucia. The house was big, beautiful and airy. The property was clean and well maintained by a very warm gardener named Ray. Ray brings fresh fruit to the house sometimes, which we used for Smoothies. The cleaning person came every other day to make sure the house was in good order. We didnt need her as much as she wanted to come. She was very flexible as to when she would come to the house, which was perfect for us. We wanted a little extra privacy.

The modern kitchen looked brand new, stainless appliances and marble counters were very nice. There are two very comfortable king beds in two nicely sized bedrooms. The shower in the Master Suite was very big and had dual shower heads.


The house is situated in the perfect spot, its quite Private and then the view is just remarkable. The Piton mountain mountain is right outside of every window and the pool deck. We saw so many spectacular sunsets cascade against this World Heritage Site. We spent a lot of time at the house just relaxing by the pool and cooking at night. The pool was very refreshing to jump into in the middle of the day when the sun was most hot.

We recommend getting the personal chef, Basil to come in and cook some very traditional West Indian food. It was a bit expensive, but worth it! Just make sure you tell him how spicey you like it. We like it hot! We also got a car for one or two days and did some touring around. There is a lot of very lush landscape and beautiful beaches to see. The black sand beach at Anse Chastinet, was very special. We loved the restaurant at the Ladera resort, and the Mango Tree at Stonefield Estates. There is also a helicopter tour thats amazing; book that early it gets booked up quickly. Water taxis are also a great way to get to the North End of the Island. The roads are very windy and if you have a weak stomach you might get a bit woozy in a fast taxi.

There are lots of other things to do, that we will get to next time ;-) We recommend this villa to couples wanting to relax, have a little romance and be away from it all. Sadly were now back to the cold in Upstate New York, though were counting the days till we get back.
