St Lucia – Gistihús

Carine Kanada

This was the loveliest accommodation, from the location, to room, to yummy breakfast spread. Most importantly, the owners went out of their way to make our stay wonderful, from recommendation of nearby activities, companies operating in the area, things to see in the parks, to preparing a wonderful Christmas dinner for the guests, they made us feel right at home.

It is an amazing place we want to come back to. We were delighted during our stay for several reasons. Firstly, our room was beautifully decorated. Every small detail, including the scent, was carefully considered. For instance, there is a comfortable bathtub with a bathtub tray and candles; the sink is decorated with the image of a hippo. There are gels, shampoos, body lotions, cotton swabs, and pads near the sink – all the essentials for a comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable, and I must say we are quite particular about it. There is a TV in the room – although we didn't watch it, we enjoyed listening to the radio with local and classical music. Additionally, we were provided with tea, coffee, and small snacks in the room. Secondly, the owner of the place, Adrian, helped us plan and organize our stay in St. Lucia. Thanks to him, we had the best experience during our entire journey in South Africa. We had a boat tour to see hippos. Importantly, we were on a boat with only a few tourists and a knowledgeable guide, while other ships were crowded with people. Our guide showed us some additional sights. The next day, we went ocean fishing, and there were only five of us on the boat. We were very lucky, and for 3.5 hours, we enjoyed whale watching. Now, we have hundreds of pictures and videos of whales, and I even caught a big tuna! Adrian joined us to ensure the fish was properly cooked in the restaurant. It was a delicious and unique experience; we had never eaten such fresh tuna. Adrian also provided suggestions about restaurants, local markets, and other excursions. We truly appreciated the way he and Marie treated us. Thirdly, the breakfasts were superb. In the evening, guests can come to the hall, have a drink, and listen to music. There were books and photo albums available. For those interested, there is a small pool. We didn't swim but enjoyed its illumination in the evenings. We highly recommend booking this place.

Elné was an amazing host. She gave great advice about what to do in the area. She even went out of her way (twice!) to offer us a packed breakfast. The guest house itself was spotless and very comfortable. Most of the rooms face the pool, which is great for cooling off on a hot afternoon. Thank you!

A beautiful and relaxing place to stay in St Lucia! André was super helpful with everything, even helped me with organizing a ride back to the airport weeks prior to me coming, and the garden/property around the cottage was also lovely to be in.
