Beautiful apartment in Castries
This apartment was great. Very well maintained, well equipped, clean, and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed watching the sunrise with our coffee on the balcony, and seeing the cruise ships coming and going. The shared pool was nice to come back to and cool off at sunset. There's 2 other units and we had fun meeting people around the pool. Our unit (one of 2 on the second floor) was the most private of the 3 since no one walks past your balcony, which we really liked. The owners are upstairs on the 3rd floor. The main downside for us is that you had to make it through pretty awful traffic and challenging roads to get to sights/beaches in the north. It just took a lot longer than we had anticipated to get anywhere and the driving was stressful at times. Not the host's fault, but I'm not sure we'd choose to stay in this location again. But that's totally personal preference - if you're looking to stay in Castries, this place is highly recommended! Side note - a short drive or long walk takes you to La Toc Beach via the Sandals driveway. When we parked, the Sandals guard tried hussling for money, but he was hussling for himself and this was not an official Sandals parking fee. We never did give him anything, but we may have if we had had any small bills, just to avoid the confrontation - handle as you see fit, but know it's probably a scam.
