St. Lucia is known as "Simply Beautiful:" Spend your morning snorkeling or scuba diving on pristine and uncrowded reefs, and your afternoons hiking or biking in a tropical jungle, playing tennis, windsurfing, lounging on the beach under a private cabana, deep sea fishing, being pampered at Spa Kai Belte', becoming one with the Yoga Hut, or kayaking along St. Lucia's coastline. Anse Chastanet Resort is the place and we have a special deal for our second group trip to St. Lucia. On a past trip at this time of year, we spent an evening watching a hawksbill turtle lay her eggs by candlelight right on the resort beach.

Accommodations:

Jade Mountain infinity pool sanctuary

We are staying at St. Lucia's premier resort. Built into a lush tropical hillside, Jade Mountain and Anse Chastanet are cradled into the natural beauty of St. Lucia, right in the heart of a marine reserve. Six room categories are available from traditional Caribbean "Superior" up to 1800+sq. ft. sanctuaries with private infinity pool and an open wall to look out at St Lucia’s Pitons and the Caribbean Sea.

One recent Huron Scuba couple, upon seeing their Jade Mountain sanctuary, commented that they had wasted a lot of time and money honeymooning in the South Pacific. They hadn’t known that St Lucia was equally awesome yet only seven hours away by air. 

Beachside deluxe roomYou can choose to stay at either the Anse Chastanet resort on the hillside, or at the "resort-within-a-resort" Jade Mountain. Dave and Rachael personally guarantee you will think that your Jade Mountain Sanctuary, complete with in-room infinity pool, is the best room you've stayed at anywhere in the world. We stayed there recently and we cannot wait to go back again, this time with the Huron Scuba Dive Team.

Also available to you are Anse Chastanet's traditional octagonal Superior rooms on the hillside, as well as the Beachside Deluxe rooms, just steps away from the beach, restaurants, dive shop, and spa. All room categories include awesome St. Lucian hospitality and great diving.

Awards & Reviews:
Anse Chastanet has been the recipient of various awards including "The 2005 Gold List" Conde Nast Traveler; "Best Small, Best Romantic & Best Resort with a View" Caribbean Travel & Life Magazine; "Most Romantic Spa US & Caribbean" Spa Finder Magazine; "The Perfect 10 Caribbean Resorts" Outside Magazine, and the list goes on...
