Enjoying a prestigious, seafront location high on Sea Breeze Hills, Villa Islet belongs to the exclusive community within Cap Estate. Dominating this northernmost tip of Saint Lucia, Cap Estate’s amenities include an eighteen-hole, championship standard golf course, beautiful strips of sand across a number of beaches, three hotels and restaurants. The clubhouse at Saint Lucia Golf Club is a Caribbean style grill.
Just ten minutes’ drive from Villa Islet at Rodney Bay, is one of the best marina’s in the Caribbean. Take a fascinating stroll along the waterfront to see super-sized yachts from around the world, enticing bars and restaurants. This is the perfect spot for sitting in the sunshine and watching the glamorous world go by. A short distance from the marina, you’ll find Rodney Bay’s huge shopping complex; The Baywalk Mall. A hotspot for shoppers across Saint Lucia, this amazing centre has over eighty shops, an abundance of restaurants and the only casino on the island.
If you want to explore the island a little further, and sample Saint Lucian life beyond the tourist trail, head for Gros Islet on a Friday night. About a ten-minute drive from Cap Estate, this is the place for a party. Tuck into barbecued chicken and fish and get ready for ‘Jump Up’. Hold onto your hats once the music and street dancing start and be sure to join the locals with a glass or two of rum. Cheers!
For a more sedate excursion, venture out to the picturesque Pigeon Island. Visit the eighteenth-century fort, still complete with cannon, at the very top of the hill, or immerse yourself in the delightful countryside on one of the hiking trails which take you through the now National Park.
