Excellent accommodation and wonderful hosts
We absolutely loved Santa Lucia Wilds and the owners were wonderful hosts making you feel at home and providing all sorts of useful tips about the area. Our unit was very comfortable, spacious (living room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom) and very well equipped. Comfortable beds and a quiet environment for a good nights sleep. The private garden with grill was fabulous. Lots of restaurants and shops within a ten minute walk and hiking trail just outside the property. Many thanks to the owners for such a lovely stay. We are looking forward to coming back soon.

Calme, joli petit jardin et appart fonctionnel
Passés le côté kitch de l'appartement et les règles parfois un peu trop strictement édictées (par exemple la demande de procéder à un inventaire très détaillé de tous objets fournis dans les 24h qui suivent l'arrivée), les propriétaires se sont montrés très disponibles, réactifs et sympathiques. Nous y avons bien profité du calme de la résidence située au bout de la rue principale (sachant que Ste Lucia n'est pas bien grande).
