About this property
Villa Albatross Nest with Stunning Panoramic Sea View
Located in Cap Estate, with breathtaking views Perched on the northwest tip of Cap Estate — St Lucia’s most prestigious area — Albatross Nest is a rare villa that genuinely takes your breath away. Step onto the elevated terraces and drink in uninterrupted 180° views stretching from the island of Martinique to Pigeon Island National Park and Rodney Bay, with the distant peaks of the iconic Pitons completing the picture. As the sun sets, this becomes one of the most magical spots in the entire Caribbean.
The Villa and Pool Designed by acclaimed architect Robertson Ward — creator of the original Sandy Lane Hotel in Barbados — Albatross Nest is a masterclass in tropical living. Three traditional Caribbean shingled buildings are connected by covered walkways around a large private pool, spanned by an elegant bridge that adds a touch of romance to the whole setting. The open-plan architecture blurs the line between indoors and out, filling every space with natural light, sea breezes and the sounds of the ocean below. The beautifully landscaped tropical garden provides total seclusion and privacy.
Flexible for Two or up to Eight The villa is exclusively yours — never shared with other guests. Whether you’re a honeymoon couple seeking a private paradise or a group of up to 8 looking for the ultimate Caribbean base, Albatross Nest adapts beautifully. Base pricing is for 2 guests, with a modest additional charge per extra guest.
Your Home Conveniences • Maid service Monday–Friday, plus dedicated gardening and pool maintenance • Private chef available by special arrangement (at extra cost) • Pre-stocking service so you can arrive to a full fridge — not a supermarket run • Rental cars can be delivered and collected directly from the villa • Airport transfers arranged on request (at extra cost) • Property manager Kris Wagner and her team available 7 days a week
Explore St Lucia on Your Doorstep Pigeon Island Beach, Anse Du Cap and Cas en Bas beaches are all just minutes away. Within a 10-minute drive you’ll find two 18-hole golf courses, world-class snorkelling and scuba diving, kitesurfing, horse riding on the beach, tennis, and some of the island’s finest restaurants.

The moment you walk into the residence, the expensive ocean views are truly breathtaking. The open air layout concept of the villa is really cool the host, Kris, meet us at the villa did a great job walking us around the property and was super helpful during our stay. We vacation a fair amount and stay in a lot of VRBO properties, but I’ve never stayed in one that had a view like this. I highly recommend having one of the recommended chefs come in and make a dinner for your group. It was a highlight of the trip for us. The villa was very clean and full of amenities.

We are delighted that you loved the very special 180 degree views from the house with Martinique to the north and views down the island to the distant Pitons.
We are delighted that you appreciated the open air living of the Great Room with bedrooms providing air conditioned spaces.
Kris goes the extra mile to help guests enjoy their stay providing an exceptional concierge service.
Thank you for your lovely review.
Kris is fantastic and took great care of our every need, even during last minute planning. Her recommendations were spot on. Donald, Eldon, Ivy, and Thomas were also very warm, hospitable, and helpful as well. The villa was delightful for our stay, and the views are to die for.

We are delighted that you really appreciated Kris and the team at Albatross Nest. They really try to make every guest’s stay special.
Our party of 6 really enjoyed the home, stunning views, attentive host who answers you quickly. We appreciated the security of the property and the location on Cap Estate. Easy traveling to nearby Rodney Bay and even Castries. the kitchen was well equipped with everything one would need. We cooked 4 dinners and ate 2 out. the quickest way to see the Pitons is to take a catamaran tour as the home sits far north on the island. Saint Lucia is mountainous, so our street and drive was rather steep.

We are so pleased that you appreciated the house, equipment, views and location.
A boat trip down to the south of the island is definitely the best way to see and experience the Pitons and the beautiful coastline of St Lucia.
I cannot say enough about this fabulous VRBO as it was truly that best we have ever had. The home, amenities and view exceeded all of our expectations! We felt like we landed in paradise for the week.As a family of 7, there was plenty of space, privacy as well as comfortable areas to all be together for some family fun. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and modern with good AC available. The kitchen was more than adequate and we cooked and grilled all week. The family room/dining room is open air and ideal for hanging out. The pool was perfect and the hammock was almost never empty (we were all fighting for it)! To sum it all up- we were so happy at the house we did not need to leave much. Thank you for an amazing family holiday week!

We are so delighted that you enjoyed your stay and loved the house.There are lots of spaces for family and friends to relax together and to find private spaces for quiet reading.
We would love you to return and enjoy the house and pool again.
Beautiful home and a fantastic view. Ivy, the house keeper, was so good and kind. Loved her. Diane, the host, was great. It was hard to find, especially the first time at night. They gave us directives, but it was difficult following them. I would stay there again.

Delighted that you enjoyed our home, the lovely housekeeper, Ivy and the host.
The house is quite difficult to find and we do recommend that guests have a driver from the airport which can be arranged for you and then car hire can start the next day with delivery of the hire car to the villa.
The pre-stacking service means that you can have food and drink requirements at the house for your arrival.
We would love to welcome you back.
The pictures don’t do this place justice. Views were out of this world. Very secluded and felt very safe on the property. The host was very communicative and helped us with our every need. Would definitely stay here again.

Thank you! Ivy, the housekeeper really works hard to help guests enjoy their stay at the house. We are so pleased that you appreciated the facilities, the views and the pool.
Amazing house! Amazing location! Amazing views! This house was perfect for my husband and I and our three teenage children! Everyone had their own space and there was plenty of communal space. The sunsets were spectacular! Ivy was lovely and Kris was so helpful. St. Lucia may be the friendliest island we have visited. I would recommend Albatross Nest to everyone. Hopefully we’ll be back one day.

We are so pleased that you loved the space which allows groups to gather and chat as well as providing plenty of quiet, private space for those who want some quiet time perhaps for reading or yoga. The house seems to please people of all ages.
We really hope that you return.
Stayed here on our honeymoon and it was everything the pictures show and more! Truly, this view is breathtaking and we couldn’t get over it. The pool is wonderful and the open seating area in the mornings and evenings is remarkably relaxing. Kris is wonderfully helpful and the staff also are just crazy nice and friendly as they keep the place immaculate! If you’re staying in the north of the island, I couldn’t recommend this place more.

The property is expertly managed by Kris who lives in St Lucia and has done so for many years making her recommendations invaluable to guests. Kris and the team do try and make each guest's stay memorable and enjoyable and as relaxing or active as guests wish to make their stay.

Beautiful outdoor space with an awe inspiring view!
Wonderful place, but will need transportation because not walkable to anywhere & roads are tricky/steep.

We are delighted you found the house wonderful.
We suggest a taxi from the airport is a good option with hire car delivered to the house the next day. Kris, the villa manager can organise this. The house can be pre-stocked with food for arrival and breakfast.
Beaches, restaurants, shops and golf course are all within 15/20 minute drive.
If you do not drive or don’t want to, Kris the villa manger can recommend a driver for your stay.
The villa is first rate, as is the view, the pool and everything about it! Kris couldn't have been a better host/manager and Ivy was delightful. We'll be back!

We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at the property and pleased that you were well looked after by the team. We look forward to welcoming you back to Albatross Nest and we hope that it becomes your home from home in the Caribbean.
Our family of 6 really enjoyed our stay at Villa Albatross Nest. Communication with Kris was great leading up to the trip and during our stay. She helped with everything from arranging a chef, the rental car, groceries, and excursions. Truly top notch property management!The house itself was great as well. The open air concept was a bit of a concern at first, but the cool breeze at the top of the hill helped keep things cool day and night. We would definitely considering staying once again!PS

About the host
Hosted by Kris
Kris Wagner professionally manages the property which belongs to an English couple who have been visiting St Lucia for the past 20 years. We fell in love with the island and after a very long search we finally found our dream home which we purchased in December 2009. We look forward to being able to spend much more time in our beautiful home in St. Lucia when we retire but in the meantime we are making it available for holiday rentals when we are not there .
Why they chose this property
We have visited St. Lucia for many years and love the island. We fell in love with the stunning view, the lovely garden and the architecture of this property. We enjoy the variety of restaurants and beaches easily accessible from the property.
What makes this property unique
The property has one of the best sea views we have seen on the island. The sunset views are amazing. The property provides a restful, private location but good restaurants and a variety of activities are available within a ten minute drive.
