Top Honeymoon Destination at Soufriere on St Lucia By Kelly J Wilson At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Sometimes you need to look away from the big resorts on St Lucia for your honeymoon destination, so check out La Haut Plantation

A top honeymoon destination on St Lucia is a hard one to call because there is a lot of competition especially in the Soufriere area with the romantic Pitons. It is well worth checking out La Haut Plantation which gets rave reviews from guests, and has a great deal going for it, not the least of which are the stunning views.

It has a reputation as a great place, with outstanding staff who look after you really well. They are the kind of people who don’t ever seem to be troubled by requests and can never do too much for you.

Incredibly it manages to accomplish with some flair being a really top honeymoon destination, with being a very nice family vacation resort. Saying that resort isn’t probably the right description, for a hotel that is in the middle of a working plantation perched on a hillside, so the description could be better as an ideal family holiday hotel.

Whatever you choose to call it, the fact that it is half way up a mountain means the setting is quite stunning, well away from tourists, hustle and bustle, and yet within easy reach of the town of Soufriere, the Pitons, beaches, and other things to do and see. You will however require a hire car for your holiday due to the isolated nature of the property although there are other options worth thinking about if you don’t intend to explore.

The first is the shuttle that runs to Anse Chastanet every day at 10am coming back up to La Haut Plantation at 4pm. The hotel has two pools but if this is a family holiday, children will want to go to the beach. Anse Chastanet is a great beach, and well worth bringing your own snorkelling stuff. You’ll want to supply your own lunch because the beachside restaurants are expensive. There are good grocery shops in Soufriere so the best suggestion is to buy food for lunch if you don’t want extra expense. It is also great to mingle with the local people an opportunity denied to most people on a package holiday.

You don’t want to be walking anywhere outside the hotel, apart from Soufriere. Being up a steep hill, it’s no fun at all.

You can get a taxi through La Haut Plantation, he seems to be their tame personal taxi. If you want to go exploring, and you don’t want to hire a car, then you’ll find him great fun, and not difficult to come to a price if you want him for a full day.

La Haut Plantation is a lovely place altogether. If you are looking for peace and quiet so you can just relax, then it is perfect. It is an unrecognised but nevertheless top honeymoon destination for this reason. You will also see families here, although in terms of it being a family holiday hotel, it would really be for families with smaller children, because teenagers could well get bored in such a small place. Its position is really unsurpassed, and worth it for the views alone, never mind the excellent rooms, service, and food.
