Beautiful, personally run lodge. The deckway to your gorgeous decorated rooms makes you feel like you are in Bali. The personal attention from the host and staff were great. The resident cat cutie pie makes you feel relaxed and down to earth. The decorations around the main entrance have been meticulously thought about and really add to the tropical ambiance. The breakfast every morning was superb. The fruit served as a starter had a different design every day - one day a kebab, the other granola cups, wonderful presentation. full English breakfast, omelets, cheeses, yoghurt, orange juice and excellent coffee. Highly recommended - we will be back. The hosts and staff gave us loads of ideas for day visits and can help arrange early morning game drives. Every morning we were asked if we had spotted the resident "townie" hippos in town at night. Thanks for the excellent stay.

I would have liked an option to maybe have a breakfast as room service one day but they did offer a take away breakfast if you needed so i guess we could have asked for that.

Lodge Afrique is a true gem! The attention to detail throughout the property is exceptional, with beautiful rooms that feel luxurious and inviting. The clever design of the property maximizes the number of chalets while maintaining privacy and charm. The staff are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Their knowledge of the region is impressive, and they offer excellent recommendations on activities and places to visit. Booking activities through the lodge was not only convenient but also more affordable than booking directly. Overall, our stay was absolutely wonderful. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing and well-organized getaway!

There was nothing I didn’t like about my stay. However, I wish I had sought advice on activities at the time of booking, as some were fully booked when the staff tried to arrange them for us upon arrival.

I had an amazing stay at Lodge Afrique! Muriel, our host, went out of her way to make everything perfect. The staff were super helpful, giving us great recommendations and helping us book local tours we wouldn’t have found on our own. Muriel even dropped me off for my horse riding, which was such a thoughtful touch. The hospitality here really reflects the warm and welcoming spirit of South Africa. On top of all that, when I forgot my medication, the staff made sure it was sent to my next destination. Truly exceptional service!

Nothing I can think of!

The staff were welcoming and so accommodating, organising multiple tours for us during our stay. The lodge is beautifully decorated and has an outdoor Indonesian vibe with a spectacular tropic garden. Good water pressure in the rooms. Breakfast was made with attention to detail, we recieved a cold and warm breakfast each morning. Can't fault them on anything. The location is perfect, off the main road, and peaceful. Wouldn't stay anywhere else if I came back to St Lucia.

Lodge Afrique is a darling lodge 5 min walk from the center of town. Merril & Shama were wonderful to work with! Merril especially had wonderful advice on things to do in the area and since we weren't on a scheduled tour that was very helpful. The setting is darling with individual huts for every room and beautiful landscaping. Breakfast was exceptional! The best I have had so far on my trip! Even though St. Lucia felt extremely safe, I am grateful that they had a gated facility where you could park your car. If you are going to St. Lucia, make sure you stay here!!

Honestly I thought it was a great place and I have nothing negative to mention!

What a gorgeous place to stay! Although the chalets are close to each other the setup is so nice in a lush tropical garden that your privacy is guaranteed and the place is very quiet. We loved everything at this property. A short walk to the main street with restaurants. Stayed 4 nights. Breakfast was amazing with every day something special. This must be one of the best places to stay in Sty Lucia.

Nothing at all.

Fabulous place to stay. The host explained everything to us on arrival. A map of St Lucia was given to us on arrival and it had a map of the area on the reverse, we found this very useful for getting our bearings. We loved the wooden deck pathway over the subtropical garden, it makes you feel like your are in your own little world and is very relaxing. We didn't get to use the pool as we only stayed one night. Breakfast was superb and kept us going until tea time. We will definitely book again for longer when we are back in the area. Well done everyone at Lodge Afrique.

Nothing to dislike.

Everything is beautiful. The breakfast is amazing and the service is the best.

The units are too close to each other, if the blinds are open you can see right into the next unit. However this didn’t bother us as we were out most of the day and came back in the late afternoon.

This is a really beautiful facility, and the separate rooms are very quiet and pretty. For breakfast, they had veggie sausages available for us vegans, which was really great as we had a long drive ahead of us. The photos are amazing but also accurate!! We are very happy to recommend Lodge Afrique.
