Our stay at Fond Doux was everything we hoped it would be. The setting is gorgeous: luxuriant tropical gardens filled with fruit and flowers, winding pathways leading to individual cottages, breathtaking views of the rainforest and valley from our cottage (Hilltop Guava) and the lovely pool area. As other reviewers have mentioned, the resort is very rustic and natural but... More

If you love getting an authentic taste of food and culture when you travel--this is the place. The people here are wonderful and will do anything to make sure you have a great visit. From Omo and Indira at the front desk to Lyon, Philip, Milton, and the rest who manicure the grounds, ensure you have fresh fruit daily, and... More

A working cacoa plantation. Like most of the tours on the island, they were max 20min and often much less. We saw how they process the cocoa beans by stepping on them (called the "coco-rina"). Like most tours on the island, it was really short (< 20 min). More

We loved our stay at Fond Doux! Falling asleep to the sounds of the rainforest was so relaxing. Swimming as you look out at forested mountains was breath-taking. There is no AC in the room, but the fan was more than adequate and helped to keep the bugs away. There is no TV or internet in the rooms, so you... More

If you like your vacations rustic and authentic, this is the place for you. My family stayed for four nights just before xmas and we all enjoyed it.

We only stayed at Fond Doux for one night, but we're sure to be back. We stayed in the smallest of the rooms (African Tulip cottage), and while I was expecting something small and run down, that was certainly not the case. The cottage was so cozy and the bathroom was large and nice. There was a deck on the... More

I will note at the start that I bumped this up from average only because I loved the small cottage assigned to me, which might not be to everyone's taste. Whether original or "new" the accomodation on site really relects the ambiance and architecture of St Lucia, which most resorts here do not. Obviously great care has been taken in... More

Coming from an urban environment, it is refreshing to experience such natural ambiance. Fond Doux Holiday Plantation offered a very real experience that was only imaginable through a casual viewing of the television. From the lush vegetation which engulfs the private, wooded cottages, to a very amicable staff and local cuisine that is to die for, this resort facilitated my... More
