Location

The setting provides a quiet and private atmosphere, perfect for relaxation, and is celebrated by visitors for its incredible vantage points from the accommodations and pool area. While it is slightly removed from the town center, requiring transportation, this ensures tranquility away from the bustling Soufriere, making it an excellent base for exploring the area's natural wonders. Guests highlight the convenience of great parking facilities, especially if arriving by rental car or taxi, essential due to the challenging access roads. Despite the lack of nearby restaurants or stores, the unparalleled vistas and restful environment make it a sought-after destination for those seeking a peaceful retreat in one of St Lucia’s most picturesque locations.

Breakfast
Samfi Gardens offers a unique breakfast experience with both highlights and areas for improvement.

The quality of the breakfast is often praised, with Tonya, the breakfast chef, frequently going above and beyond to ensure a tasty meal. The entire setup complements the already breathtaking view, making breakfast a memorable event.

However, the process is not without its complexities. Guests must remember to book their breakfast a day in advance, even selecting a specific time slot. While the pricing is generally considered reasonable, some guests felt that the breakfast options could be more diverse and streamlined.

It's worth noting that there is no on-site restaurant or bar service, which makes planning essential, particularly since nearby dining options in the evening can be scarce. Those who prefer self-catering will find the fully-equipped kitchenette in the rooms a valuable asset, allowing them to prepare meals at their convenience.

For a charming lunch option within walking distance, the Beacon comes highly recommended. TreeHouse and Tree Top Restaurant are noted for their dining experiences, although advance reservation might be necessary.

While a small shop provides snacks and drinks, most dining requires a short car or taxi ride to town.
