🌴La Batterie Villa • Vakker Boutique Island-villa med fantastisk utsikt 🌴

My husband, our two older children (23 and 21 years) and I have just returned from a wonderful stay at La Batterie. We had such a wonderful and relaxing stay. Everything about our stay was easy.....the villa environment, easy to love......the views, unbelievably easy on the eye.......local beaches, easy to get to........the villa staff, easy to fall in love with (although we particularly fell in love with Terry, BB and BK!)........Stephanie’s cooking, easy to eat too much......the list could go on.

Easily one of our best holidays!! Thank you very much , we hope to visit again!

A stunning location and property! Staff was amazing...helpful and accommodating in every way! Definitely appreciated the availability of a top notch chef and a competent, safe driver! Owners provided helpful and timely communication! A destination vacation truly worth repeating!

This place is absolutely incredible. The view and the beauty of the house and the pool makes it the most relaxing spot around. The staff makes you feel like you’re at a resort and so welcoming. Stefanie the cook is well worth taking advantage of her delicious meals! Teri is very knowledgeable about the beautiful gardens he’s created around the house. And his rainforest Tour was beautiful and educational. Thank you BK and the others for keeping us safe and making us feel welcomed. As far as excursions, definitely take advantage of the Sugar boat tours which takes you around the bays and shows you St. Lucia from the ocean. It was absolutely beautiful and fun at the same time while we got to snorkel. Our captains Travis and Ted were so much fun and knowledgeable. for those of you that like a challenge, definitely try the gross Piton hike. It’s 160 floors up in 4 1/2 miles of climbing up and down, but you’ll be so proud of yourself when you’ve completed it and the view at the top as well worth the work. Thank you owners Michael and Jennifer for taking care of us via online in conversation and text to keep us organized. This trip was so worth the value: Beautiful home, wonderful staff, home-cooked meals, security guard at night, gardener and personal tour… It just doesn’t get any better. God bless y’all for giving us a piece of paradise

We can’t say enough about how amazing this property and staff are. My wife and I recently celebrated our ten year anniversary here and have found a place we want to come back to every year. Over the years we’ve traveled the world and stayed in everything from 5 star hotels and resorts to VRBO flats and houses and none of them come close to this. From the breathtaking views of the Pitons and beautiful gardens, to the top notch service of Stephanie and Terry. They catered to our every want and need and made sure our stay was unforgettable. The next time we stay we plan on having Stephanie cook for us everyday, it was by far some of the best food we’ve ever had. We split our time between the perfect and secluded pool area and the two gorgeous beaches just a short drive/walk away. One thing that really surprised us was how private the villa was, extremely relaxing and serene. The pictures just don’t do the views justice. Thanks again to the owners and staff for an unforgettable anniversary, we can’t wait to visit again!

We loved our 8 nights at LB. Communication with Michael & Jennifer was top notch. They answered endless questions & suggested restaurants & activities to consider. Check in is a breeze, & having Clavie pick us up at the airport ($75) was great-roughly an hour drive. Steph prepared 4 lunches & dinners in the villa-chicken roti, shrimp creole, BBQ ribs, mac & cheese, chicken curry, jerk chicken- ate the leftovers next day. She also pre-stocked the fridge with eggs, cheese & crackers, water, etc. & we stopped at a larger grocery store on the way back from the airport to pick up wine. The pricing for this is SO reasonable. If I remember, we paid Stephanie $15 for each meal+ingredients. For dinner, we asked her to stay to serve which she did and that was $20 for her time (and returning to the villa). I don't regret this decision at all--the view from La Batterie is the best! The other 3 nights we ate out, roughly $10 an hour for local places with Clavie. We went to Dasheen at the Hotel Laredo. As the hosts suggested, we arrived early for appetizers to watch the sunset. The seafood fritters were delicious. Look up sunset and plan to arrive about an hour before so you get good table. Another night we ate at Orlando’s based on reviews but disappointed. There was still the same set dinner menu from Xmas Eve even though it was mid January and it was mediocre. We also ate at right on the beach at Anse Chastanet. I loved hearing the waves hit the shore. The food & menu there were great! On the way back to the airport, Clavie took us to Fedo’s in town, a totally local place that was good. Bibianna & Marilyn kept the villa clean and stocked with fresh towels, & were so kind. We adjusted the hours and only had staff come every other day for privacy. Since I overpacked, I used another closet as there aren’t a ton of hangars, but since only 2 of us no big deal. The pool area has sun and shade which we loved but spent more time on the deck for the view & only went down to the pool when we were hot. I loved everything about the villa except since I am afraid of birds, small birds do fly into the house-though fly out again quickly, which kept me in near constant startle mode during the day. They didn’t bother my husband at all and our kids would have loved them, but I mention it so anyone else with my irrational fear is aware. If you are visiting St. Lucia, I highly recommend La Batterie. Its views, staff, & owners will make your trip amazing!
