We were greeted by Colin (Colleen was out) who made us feel most welcome and explained all that St Lucia had to offer. We stayed here for 4 nights and the room though not large was sufficient and exceptionally clean as was the bathroom. The breakfast with the homemade bread was excellent and a great way start to the day.... More

From the moment we arrived and settled in for three nights at Whalesong we were delighted. Having chosen the Sea Spray room, which had it's own entrance and looked out onto the Garden and the pool, we were not disappointed. The room was everything we had expected and the bathroom huge and well equipped. The option of the private patio... More

We were a 3 generation family group of 6 (30-84) and the Whalesong suited our requirements well. It's a large property within the tranquil residential oasis of the town that is St Lucia. Hosts Colleen and Colin are both hospitable and knowledgeable and our trip through the Wetlands Reserve ,culminating in a swim and sunbathe at Cape Vidal, was a... More

The place is quiet and located in a residential neighborhood. The hosts are knowledgeable about the area. It was clean and comfortable and rated as a 4 star property. This South African ratings are difficult to understand as we have stayed at nicer 3 star properties and not so good 5 star places. The hosts are friendly, but it seemed... More

Appreciate the feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed Colin’s breakfasts. Sorry our approach was more business oriented, we will keep this in mind for future. None of the rooms have TVs as we feel that most guests who visit our World Heritage Site would prefer the peace and tranquillity. Guests who would like to watch, however, are able to... More

Whalesong provided the perfect atmosphere for our family gathering. The hosts are fabulous, interesting and great conversationalists (but never intrusive). The property and pool are lovely and inviting. The breakfasts make getting up in the morning a delight! The location is perfect: close to the restaurants and shops but not too close. If we get back to SA and near... More

My girlfriend and I stayed at Whalesong for four nights during the first week of January 2013. Simply put, we had a wonderful experience. Colin and Colleen are warm, cheerful hosts who are very knowledgeable about St. Lucia and the surrounding area. The booked tours were all worthwhile, but the highlight of our trip ended up being a morning-long stroll... More
