Plantation House, mit herrlichem Panoramablick auf das Meer, 4x4 zu vermieten.

Die Plantage des Manguiers (Mangoplantage) ist über 100 Jahre alt. Es hat alle Merkmale eines Hauses, das gebaut wurde, um das Klima der vergangenen Jahre vor der Klimatisierung optimal zu nutzen. Die Fenster haben große schwere Fensterläden und es gibt kein Glas, so dass die milden Passatwinde durch das Haus fließen können. Die geschützte Veranda ist von morgens bis abends kühl und schützt das Innere vor der Hitze des Tages. Von dieser verschlafenen Veranda aus können Sie sich entspannen und dabei zusehen, wie die Welt in der Ferne vorbeizieht. Die herrliche Aussicht ändert sich ständig, Segelboote, kleine Flugzeuge, Kreuzfahrtschiffe, die wechselnden Farben des Meeres und des Himmels bieten Unterhaltung. An einem klaren Tag kann man Martinique sehen, manchmal so deutlich, dass man das Gefühl hat, dort schwimmen zu können! Das Innere des Hauses ist elegant dekoriert und möbliert und, wo immer möglich, im Plantagenstil eingerichtet. Es ist komfortabel und einladend und bietet dennoch alle Annehmlichkeiten, um einen erholsamen Aufenthalt zu gewährleisten.


Die Villa gehört Chef Jacques und seiner Frau Cathy. Ihnen gehört auch das Jacques Waterfront Dining Restaurant, das kürzlich in die Rodney Bay an der Waterfront am Eingang zum Jachthafen verlegt wurde und täglich zum Mittag- und Abendessen und sonntags zum Brunch geöffnet ist.

Darüber hinaus Hochzeitsempfänge, Geburtstagsfeiern; Tatsächlich kann jede Feier bei Jacques arrangiert oder in der Villa verpflegt werden. Es gibt eine private Terrasse am Wasser im Restaurant für größere Gruppen. Für Villengäste gelten Ermäßigungen. Wenden Sie sich an Cathy.

Transport: Die Plantation des Manguiers liegt in der Nähe von Castries. Die Busse verkehren regelmäßig. Von Castries aus können Sie mit dem Bus überall hin fahren, aber seien Sie auf laute Musik und etwas Gedränge gefasst! Die Busse haben in der Regel auch keine Klimaanlage, daher ist es bei geöffneten Fenstern heiß, aber luftig. Bitte beachten Sie auch, dass der Weg zum und vom Haus für überdurchschnittlich gut trainierte Personen geeignet ist, insbesondere bei starker Hitze.

Wir wohnen auf halber Strecke in einer Einbahnstraße mit einer Bushaltestelle oben und unten. Der Weg zur Bushaltestelle vom Haus ist bergab. Wenn Sie zur Villa zurückkehren, können Sie oben auf dem Hügel aus dem Bus aussteigen und die Straße hinunter zur Auffahrt zur Villa gehen. Die Auffahrt ist jedoch recht steil und für diejenigen, die nicht auf einer Straße gehen, eine Herausforderung regelmäßig vor allem in der Hitze. In diesem Fall würde ich empfehlen, ein Auto zu mieten. NB. Bitte kontaktieren Sie Cathy für weitere Informationen zu speziellen Mietwagenangeboten.

Flughafeninformationen: Die Plantation des Manguiers liegt 34 km oder 1 Stunde und 20 Minuten mit dem Auto vom internationalen Flughafen Hewanorra entfernt, der sich im Vieux Fort im Süden der Insel befindet. Ein Hubschraubertransfer zwischen Hewanorra und dem Flughafen George FL Charles in Castries ist nur 10 bis 15 Autominuten von der Villa entfernt. George FL Charles hat auch Flüge von anderen Karibikinseln und Flüge, die über Peurto Rico von den USA aus starten. Flughafentransfers werden empfohlen und können arrangiert werden, kontaktieren Sie Cathy.

A Lucian Plantation House Experience
This place has a beautiful view of the harbour and the sea. It is surrounded by lush tropical trees, fruit trees, and flowers.The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the experience of living in an old plantation house without air conditioning. It felt almost like living in a museum.We quickly got into the rhythm of opening the windows and doors for the day and enjoying the Caribbean breeze.We are not dog lovers, but they gave us our personal space. And arriving home at the end of a long day they became our welcoming committee. We are thankful for the tip of renting a 4 x 4. You definitely need one to get up the hill.Cathy is a very gracious and helpful host. She was very informative and was available for any questions.

A Taste Of Island Life
My family and I travel every other year around the Christmas holiday and this year we chose St. Lucia. We like staying in the midst of every day life and typically rent a home. This original plantation home was just what we were looking for; privacy, comfort and the most beautiful view of Castries and the surrounding area were highlights of our stay. The owner's two dogs greeted us upon our return home each evening, making us feel at home. We cooked many meals in the well stocked kitchen and on the outdoor grill. We sat on the large wrap around porch in the evenings and ate our meals on it as well. We made sure we rented an all wheel drive car to navigate the dirt road to the home and to get around the island on our own. I highly recommend this property if you want to create your own adventure.

A Heaven on the Hills
Our second time in St Lucia, this time with kids. We had a great time at Kathy's place. The house is beautiful and so much better that the pictures. Caribean farm house with beautiful touches. It has all amenities you need. Very nice view to the ocean and close to beaches. Kathy was very easy to intract and communicate and we had no issues communicating with her. We went to viggie beach, naked fisherman beach, Reduit beach, zipline in rainforest.... and enjoyed all. One general thing to know when you go to St lucia is the roads are very steep, hilly, and narrow, so if you deicide to rent a car and drive be prepared. Right side driving wont be an issue as you will get used to it. We all loved St lucia and will back again.

The view alone is worth the stay!
This historic house is beautifully maintained and a pleasant fit for our group of four adults and six teens. It is close to everything and the view is gorgeous. Cathy is amazing to communicate with, and there are two wonderful host dogs to make you feel at home. It safe and cozy, with an alarm and electric gate. No air conditioning, but you won't miss it. You will need a rental car and a 4 wheel drive is strongly encouraged as the road up to the house is in rough shape. We would definitely stay here again on our next visit.

A really wonderful place to stay!!!
Cathy was amazing from the moment we booked and throughout the stay, really prompt in replying and couldn’t have been more helpful. The house is beautiful and felt home from home, very comfortable and everything there that you needed. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and equipment. We loved having Reggie and Ella visit us every evening, keeping us company on the veranda. It is really well situated for all the island has to offer, beaches, snorkelling, zip lining, hiking, swimming, local markets (great for fresh fruit and veg), bakery at the bottom of the hill. We loved sitting in the garden watching the birds, lizards and hummingbirds. An absolutely amazing place to stay with lovely hosts.

A slice of Heaven!
This was our second stay at Mango Plantation, and it certainly won't be our last. As soon as we arrived, we felt like we were returning home. Reggie and Ella greeted us as we drove up, and hung out with us each day. They are completely unobtrusive, and wonderful company. There is nothing Cathy & Jacques haven't thought of to make the house a home. From reading, relaxing, and having brunch and happy hour each day on the veranda, to having coffee at daybreak on the lounge chairs in the yard as the bats come home, our stay was once again magical. An added bonus was an exquisite dinner at Jacques Waterfront Dining. The food and service were outstanding - a five-star experience. Vigie Beach is a short drive from the house and is beautiful. The city of Castries delighted us once again with its friendly people and delicious food. We loved visiting the market every few days to get fresh veggies and fruits, and preparing our meals in the well-stocked kitchen. The island, particularly this property, is an amazing, gorgeous getaway. Don't miss this slice of Heaven!

Beautiful House, amazing views and Wonderful Host
The historic Mango Plantation is a beautiful, picturesque house on a hillside. It has a great view overlooking the bustling City of Castries and its Port. We were there over New Years and watched the fireworks from the veranda and could hear the city enjoying themselves. The house was clean, well equipped, and comfortable. The dogs were very gracious hosts welcoming us returning from our explorations. The lot was secluded and private though would recommend a 4x4 or AWD to drive the short distance from the road to the house. The owner, Cathy, was extremely helpful with recommendations and we enjoyed dinner at her restaurant Jaques. Any drive from Castries North could take longer than anticipated due to traffic depending on the time of day. The local cuisine on the Island was excellent. Cathy’s recommendations of The Naked Fisherman and Anse Chastant (Soufriere) stood out (reservations are recommended). St. Lucia is a wonderful island.

Heaven on earth!
The Mango Plantation will forever be remembered as a heaven on earth experience! The location and the property grounds are beautiful. The house is rustic but so comfortable and had everything we needed to just stay put and enjoy living right where we were! The master bedroom was comfortable and so lovely to wake up just before sunrise in. The kitchen was well-stocked and a delight to cook in, and the veranda… well, let’s just say that we spent almost every waking minute enjoying the view, the breeze, the birds, and the lizards. Reggie and Ella were wonderful companions for our afternoon happy hours and were always a joy to see coming (this is coming from people who are not really dog people). We were so grateful for them sharing their time with us. We loved the sounds of the city of Castries below. Castries was actually quite delightful; bustling with the friendliest people. Our only regret was that we did not get a chance to meet Cathy in person as she was away for family during our stay but she kept in constant touch through WhatsApp for every question we had during and prior to our stay. When we arrived, we were expecting to have a once in a lifetime experience and by the time we left, we were making plans for our "next stay". For anyone who wants THE IDEAL, real vacation getaway from the sanitized and corporate "resort" vacation, I highly recommend staying at the Mango Plantation. It will give you the quintessential 5 star experience!

The perfect choice for an escape to Paradise
This was my very first trip to a Caribbean island and I have to say I couldn't have make a better choice! Whenever I travel, I like to get to know the place and get in contact with the local culture, history, traditions and people. I've been looking for a quiet, large, private house and the Plantation Villa is all that and more. It is very homey, stylish and comfortable, it is equipped with everything you would normally need during your vacation, spotless clean and simply awesome. I loved my big bedroom with ensuite bathroom, the huge four poster bed where no mosquitos would ever bite you, being protected by a net all over. The other two bedrooms upstairs were just as nicely furnished, with lovely view over the bay that my friend enjoyed every morning. We didn't spend too much time at the villa during the day, but the maid stopped by daily and took care of the house and our needs. The house has an alarm system, but we never felt the need to use it, the beautiful german shepperd, Maya, made us feel more than secure. She is such a lovely dog, I loved waking up in the mornings, open the window to my bedroom and have her greet me with such joy! The location of the villa is ideal if you want to be close to town, restaurants, shops, etc., but yet private enough that you see no other house/neighbor from the yard. It is a hidden gem on the top of a hill, overlooking the bay and the sea, the views are mesmerizing at day and night. A 4x4 car is needed at all times during your stay there, but Cathy, the owner will be happy to help you find a rental. As for the owners of the property, Cathy and Jaques Rioux, they are some of the nicest people I've met. Very welcoming, happy to share the information you'll need and Jaques is an exquisite french chef. His new restaurant, Jaques Waterfront Dinning in Rodney Bay area, is the perfect spot for a lovely al fresco dinner. I loved the Sunday brunch with live jazz music too! Thank you for everything Cathy and Jaques, you've both made my vacation special. I'll be back sometime for a longer period in St. Lucia and for sure I will stay again at the Plantation Villa.

Wonderful house, wonderful hosts
We enjoyed our stay in this wonderful house on our first visit to St Lucia. The house was a major reason for us choosing to come to St Lucia in the first place, having seen so many bland and overpriced villas and apartments elsewhere. We were not disappointed. The house and everything about it was exactly as shown in the photos and description, which is not always the case with holiday homes. The only change was the single beds on the landing have been replaced with a sofa and armchair and so this is now the perfect spot to read or use the internet with a stunning view of Castries and the sea beyond through the little window. We agree with all the other reviews and many positive comments made in them. One big bonus for us was the reliable and fast internet access so that we could keep in touch with home, share our holiday experience with friends, and keep our self-employed businesses ticking over. It was also invaluable in helping to sort out a minor crisis during our stay. We hired Cathy's car and were very glad we did, and also for driver Stanley coming to meet us at the airport - well worth the small extra cost. St Lucia's roads are an adventure in themselves, mainly due the alarming gradients encountered on all the hilly roads (not least up to the house itself), but 4WD and automatic makes it as easy as possible. Driving yourself is great fun once you get used to it, but certainly not something for the inexperienced or feint-hearted. Once we had learned the local driving rules we found other road users to be mostly very thoughtful and considerate. On many occasions pedestrians or other drivers would offer us directions within seconds of us looking a bit lost - a novel alternative to road signs which are almost entirely absent. The house is ideally located for visiting almost all of the rest of the island on day trips. Our favourite beach was just inside the wall at Pigeon Island with the excellent Jambe de Bois cafe nearby, an idyllic spot with good facilities where you can just be with the locals, watch the boating action in Rodney Bay and get away from the resort dwellers. The Pink Plantation House restaurant just a short distance directly up the hill from the house was a joy, and of course Cathy and Jacques own restaurant is not to be missed. So many good memories, too many to include in a short (?) review. We will be back one day.

Highly recommended
If you would like to stay close to Castries and the north of St. Lucia while enjoying a lot of privacy, this is the place to book. Communication with the owner Cathy was easy and you get all the required information for a smooth check in. The view from the house is breath taking. The house itself is very spacious and well equipped, including the kitchen. It is recommended to rent a 4x4 car (small SUV) as the road to the house is quite bumpy (but not an issue to drive there, it is only for a short distance). Reggie and Ella, the two lovely dogs, enjoy good company and will „ask“ you to play with them (hint: there are some toys next to the main door). Overall a very nice place that I would recommend to my friends.

Relaxing and wonderful
The enticing photos do not do justice to the full beauty of this place. The ever changing view from the veranda is indeed stunning but the house is not overlooked and the gardens surprising secluded, and dare I say we have no tan lines! The description mentions no window glass, the climate never needs it, and the owners have gone to a great deal of trouble to make the whole residence one of the most secure I have stayed in the Caribbean. We both needed a relaxing break and boy did this deliver. You will find everything you might want in this terrific plantation house. The shelves are well stocked with novels, films and board games and all the kitchen equipment is at hand for a grand cook-out or barbecue. We were both pretty exhausted after days discovering beaches, waterfalls, smelly volcano and mud baths and swinging from forest tree to forest tree to explore the thousands of tv channels. We especially liked watching the bustle of Castries and port far below whilst eating our dinner out on the veranda at dusk and watching the stars slowly appear. But the best bit was the welcoming greeting we got from the owners’ dogs Reggie and Elsa every time we returned from a trip. They were the greatest entertainment and treat and we miss them so much I think we’ll have to go back soon... Sadly we never made it to Jaques restaurant but other must-do places are the Pink Plantation for lunch, coconut bread and coconut turnovers from the Morne Bakery, cocktails at Agnes Bar just before the entrance to Pigeon Island National Park, sunset dinner at Hotel Chocolat (remortgage required) and great wholesome dishes at Mama Tilley’s in Laborie near Hewannorra Airport for when you arrive and leave (~EC$25 each) and a 4x4 to do it all (though not straight after Agnes Bar).

TERRIFIC STAY!!!!
I must say that this is truly the most unique place I have ever stayed! BEAUTIFUL REAL DEAL Caribbean cottage with a spectacular view overlooking Casteries and the Caribbean Ocean. SO AWESOME! Now if fancy swanky resort living is your preference, then you might not be as carried away by Ms. Cathy's beautiful home as we were but if you want to truly unique experience that is true Caribbean then I think you would love it. The house will make you feel like you're in a romantic movie. LOL. Ms. Cathy was absolutely awesome in every aspect also. Great suggestions on how and what to do while in St Lucia. The only drawback at all, which has nothing to do with the house, property or Ms. Cathy at all, would be the city of Casteries. It can feel a little sketchy in areas and at times, but we always felt extremely safe and comfortable at home. Thank you Ms. Cathy for a wonderful stay!!!!

Beautiful view
We enjoyed staying at Mango plantation! Every morning we would sit on the veranda and enjoy the beautiful view and feel the nice breeze. The villa is surrounded by fruit trees- we picked coconuts and sour oranges for juice, there are mango and banana trees also but not ready to be picked when we were there. Cathy was very nice and accommodating, whatever we needed she arranged for us. She was a great host! We had all the privacy we needed, we would walk to Castries, Vigie beach and La Toc beach- it is quite a good workout since the area has fairly steep hills but we enjoyed it (most people either arrange a taxi driver or rent a car, there is also a bus transportation available). The nights are usually warm, we definitely took advantage of the fans provided. Also keep in mind you are surrounded by nature (you can hear cicadas at night, you will be visited by small birds, geckos and ants if you leave food lying around). Definitely pack a mosquito repellent is was helpful to have one. If you are interested in an authentic island experience you won’t be disappointed! We loved the villa and the garden and the view and Cathy is a great resource when it comes to exploring the island and will quickly help arrange whatever you need! Thank you Cathy for all you did for us!

Mango Plantation - St. Lucia
We really loved "This Old House". It had so much character; a very classy act for sure! The house was well equipped and comfortable. Cathy was so helpful in so many ways especially giving us directions, as St. Lucia is a little lacking in signage. We got lost a few times, but the locals were always willing to help us out and get us back in the right direction! Vigie Beach was the best beach (on the other side of the small airport in Castries) We really enjoyed the tram ride through the Rain Forest, the volcano, botanical gardens and water fall in Soufriere.

30th anniversary
My husband and I had the pleasure to spend a few days at this beautiful property to celebrate our 30th anniversary. The hosts were really nice and we also enjoy a beautiful lunch on our special day at their restaurant at Rodney Bay. We took a water taxi to get there. Strongly recommend renting an SUV because the access to the house is very steep. Cathy (the owner) mention that to us ahead of time and we also read the comments from previous guests.

Quirky Caribbean Masterpiece
Wonderful house in an unforgettable location. Living in this old St Lucian house was, for four weeks, an experience we will never forget. It’s historical character was both quirky and above all comfortable providing a real feel of the Caribbean, which is so sadly lacking in modern day apartments and hotels. The view from the veranda overlooking Castries and the sea beyond, was both amazing and unforgettable. The house was very well equipped for everyday living complete with barbecue and fresh oranges from the garden...what more could one want! Cathy and Jacques were the perfect hosts who could not do enough for us. We had two fantastic meals at their water front restaurant... highly recommended. The boy can cook!! Other local restaurants, the Pink Plantation and the Coalpot, are also very much worth a visit. As the house is located off the beaten track a 4x4 /SUV vehicle is a must. Although we hired our own through Islander cars (who were excellent) Cathy was very helpful in providing us with information on local car hire companies. Overall the holiday was first class and highly recommended.

Peaceful, beautiful house and amazing views
Hands down, this was one of the loveliest places I've ever stayed and we can't wait to return! Cathy, our host, was friendly and helpful - available when we needed her while giving us privacy at the same time. She helped us arrange a boat trip with snorkeling at deserted beaches and deep sea fishing with Rabbit (ask for him, he's amazing!), and treated us extremely well when we dined at their waterfront restaurant, Jacques (which we also recommend!) The house had amazing views and we spent many hours relaxing on the veranda, looking out over the water, listening to the neighbor's music vying with the insects. We had daily visits from Maya, the German Shepherd, and she brought a smile to our faces every time she stopped by while exploring. The property is lovely, with many different fruit trees and flowers in blossom. You can tell this home has been well loved and the structure itself is absolutely gorgeous with dark wood and trade wind breezes blowing through. We found it was the perfect place to come home to after zip-lining, climbing Gros Piton, hiking and snorkeling at Pigeon Island, and visiting the market in Castries. We loved our daily walks through the surrounding neighborhood and found the Pink Plantation house was a nice place to have lunch. We really can't recommend this home enough and are already anticipating our next visit!

A wonderful place to stay
We chose Mango Plantation for our recent stay in St Lucia. Its a lovely, authentic old plantation house, and was perfect for our needs. The house offered all we needed for our stay, and the garden and surroundings were perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sunshine (and humming birds). As others have mentioned, access to the house is not straight forward, the roads are quite challenging, and a 4x4 is strongly recommended, although we just about managed with the normal car that the hire company delivered. The trip to Soufrieres is well worth making, and Pigeon Island was also good. Castries itself is a little disappointing, but the market offers fresh fruit and veg, and there is a supermarket next to the market for other provisions. Cathy is a good host, and made sure that our arrival went smoothly, and was on hand for advice and help on what to see and do. She also kindly gave us a guided tour of the local surroundings, which was a massive help for us finding our way around.

I was born in Nottingham in the U.K. and spent part of my childhood in Yorkshire, Guernsey in the Channel Islands, and Oxfordshire. I studied Hotel Management at Bournemouth University in the UK. I have traveled extensively since then working on a cruise ship, in Bahrain in the Middle East and Sudan in Africa, eventually settling in St Lucia 28 years ago with my husband Jacques who is French, and our two children who were toddlers at the time and now live in the UK. We originally came to St Lucia as Jacques was offered a job as the Executive Chef at Anse Chastanet Hotel in Soufriere. Four years later we decided to move to Castries and open our own restaurant. 'Jacques Waterfront Dining' was located not far from the house in Castries until July 2011 when it was destroyed by fire. Jacques re-opened on 11/11/11 in Rodney Bay in a fabulous waterfront location with views over the Marina.

Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft

I will never forget the first time that I saw La Plantation des Manguiers (Mango Plantation for short). I was teaching English to children in a French school here in St Lucia. One December another teacher and I decided to teach the children English Christmas Carols and organise a bus tour around each of the children's homes to sing their newly learnt songs to their families. One of the children lived in Mango Plantation at the time. The bus driver dropped us at the bottom of the drive and we walked up the drive with the children. When we got to the top of the drive the view just took my breath away (or what was left of it after the steep climb) a lover of Caribbean architecture I instantly fell in love with the wooden plantation house and said to my friend 'If I ever live in Castries, I want to live in this house' I never thought another thing about it until a few years later we met the family that was currently renting in the house, we became good friends and we spent happy times there visitng them. As they were getting ready to leave St Lucia, Jacques and I were getting ready to open our restaurant in Castries and needless to say we jumped at the chance to rent the house. We lived in the house for 9 years and asked the owners if we could buy it several times eventually they agreed. We absolutely love our house and we know that you will too!

Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig

Plantation des Manguiers is a typical Caribbean Plantation style house. The foundations date back over 100 hundred years. The wooden part has been renovated over the years but by all accounts has been kept true to the original style. The view is superb. We never get tired of sitting on the veranda and watching the ever changing sea and sky. We look out over the City of Castries to Pigeon Island and beyond. On a clear day we can see Martinique so well, you would believe that you could swim there! The lights twinkle at night. We live only minutes from Castries but the house feels secluded, there are neighbors but we can't see them, and they can't see us.
