Guide recommends St. Lucia resort

-

Fodor’s Travel guides have listed Anse Chastanet Resort in St. Lucia as the winner of two Fodor’s Best awards.

Fodor’s awarded Anse Chastanet recognitio­n for being one of the hotels with the best views and one of the best beachfront hotels in St. Lucia.

“Several of the individual­ly designed guest rooms on this verdant hillside have a fourth wall that’s open to the stunning Pitons view. Down below, the beach is busy with snorkelers, sunbathers, divers, kayakers, and the occasional catamaran or fishing boat,” the guide reported in its descriptio­n of the resort.

Anse Chastanet executive director Karolin Troubetzko­y said she was “humbled by the recognitio­n from one of the world’s oldest and most distinguis­hed travel authoritie­s. This recognitio­n by Fodor’s Travel really is a big deal and a huge boost for our fabulous staff, who work so hard to ensure our property honours those who choose us for their welldeserv­ed vacations.”

Nick Troubetzko­y, architect and owner of Anse Chastanet, designed the resort to make the surroundin­g environmen­t an integral part of the Anse Chastanet vacation experience.

The estate encompasse­s 600 lush tropical acres bordering two soft-sand beaches.

Visitors get a UNESCO World Heritage Site anchored by the twin Piton mountains on land, and the resort’s two crystal-clear bays are part of a designated marine reserve.

Anse Chastanet recently achieved Travelife Gold Certificat­ion together with its sister resort, Jade Mountain, for its sustainabi­lity programs.
