With its two secret beaches, on-site trails and tropical gardens, Balenbouche Estate is a renowned natural heritage site that offers vacations and retreats off the beaten path yet within 20–30 minutes of most of the island’s popular attractions. Six eco-friendly cottages (Calabash, Waterlily, Frangipani, Almond, Banyan and Moringa) are shaded by trees and cooled by the tropical breeze. Each cottage includes Wi-Fi and a kitchenette (equipped with a small fridge, kettle, stove, French press and basic cooking utensils), solar-powered hot showers, mosquito nets, standing fans, bed linen, towels and a private outdoor seating area. Guests can enjoy personal tours of the property and discover all that this officially designated natural heritage site has to offer, including an 18th-century sugar mill, nature trails and beaches, a river, pastures and organic vegetable gardens. Animals include cows, horses, cats, dogs, tortoises, many bird species, bees and other wildlife. Families, couples and single travellers who love the outdoors and are seeking an alternative to the typical resort environment will find themselves quickly feeling relaxed and at home. For meals, there are several options. We offer a daily breakfast, a dinner on the day of arrival (please let us know in advance), and a weekly buffet-style dinner in our historic, 180-year-old plantation house. All meals are freshly prepared using largely local ingredients. A rustic barn has been converted into a yoga studio and is free for guests to use. Private yoga classes can be arranged, as well as massages, meditation and other healing therapies. Many come to the estate to relax, reconnect and simply enjoy being present again. Balenbouche is a great starting point for exploring the peaceful and authentic South of the island. Public transport is available right in front of the property, and taxis and car rentals can be arranged. A village with a beach, fruit stand, small convenience store, bar and BBQ is within walking distance. The two fishing villages of Laborie...Näytä enemmän

Our 6th time back at Balenbouche! This place still retains the magic that made us fall in love in the first place. The evening chorus of insects, the beautiful beaches, the charm of our favorite cottage, Waterlily…it’s hard to imagine Saint Lucia without thinking of the marvelous times we have spent at Balenbouche. Thank you as always for having us! We will be back as soon as we can.

Balenbouche is a real little paradise on earth for a weekend with friends, family or as a couple. The place is quiet, surrounded by lush nature, and authentic. The cottages are well-equipped and comfortable. Many thanks to Verena and her mother for their warm welcome on every visit.

My friends and I are regular visitors of Balenbouche. We all love spending weekends over there. This place has something magic that is hard to describe with words. The cottages are simply beautiful and full of character. The family of Uta, Verena and Anitanja always offers us a super warm welcome. They are also very helpful for anything you might need during your stay. Also the dogs are extra friendly and loving. The estate is clean and lavish. The nature is luxurious. The whole atmosphere is capturing you. Don't miss a chance to visit Balenbouche if you are in beautiful Saint Lucia...

Beautiful spot for exploring St Lucia in the middle of a former plantation estate. The owner Uta was very welcoming. The cottages are rustic and open to the air. We stayed her during a wetter period and there were lots of mosquitoes and biting inspects so do take lots of repellant!!! The houses were pretty, spacious and well equipped. We loved the animals, especially the friendly dogs, the cows that we fed mangoes to and the tortoises. Lots of wildlife, birds, frogs and bats. Enjoyed dinner there on one night and ate in nearby Laborie on the other nights where there is also a lovely sandy beach. Great spot from which to visit the pitons.

The property is vast and gives you the perfect solo trip if you want peace and isolation. The highlight was the guardian of the place - Uta, she’s in her 80s but she’s extremely active and is very sweet. I spent hours talking to her over tea, breakfast and dinner. She is a treasure trove of knowledge. Her cats and dogs are also lovely and keep you company/guard your cottage. You also get a private beach, lovely food and Wi-Fi. Laborie is nearby if you need anything.

The host, Uta, is a gem a very inspirational soul with a passion for the estate. The estate itself is beautiful with trees, blossom and a variety of animals, we were amused by the dogs, cats, cattle, birds, butterflies, fireflies and a possum. The beaches black sand are remote and accessible but challenging for swimmers due to the waves and under-currents. The steps to middle beach are steep and challenging, the beach itself was only really useable when the weather was calm. Little beach is quiet and secluded, if scruffy in true west indies style. We started in Frangipani, a rustic bungalow, which seemed fine but our issue was with the fact that its entirely open to the air, so if you can’t cope with bugs, then its not for you. Due toother issues we were switched to a first floor modern appartment, Moringa, which was lovely with a fantastic view of the rear paddocks, great for bird spotting and fireflies, but again open to all comers so if you cannot cope with bugs at night and the odd roach or vermin, again, not for you. If you want peace, quiet and the natural world all around you, it’s a good’un. Piaye is walkable but a good hike at that, with its locals bar, fruit stalls and a surprisingly good roadside BBQ stall at the weekend. Laborie is a gem, with food options, again local style, not high-end and a pretty beach with easy access and safe swimming.

We had a fantastic time in St Lucia, and the 4 days we spent at Balenbouche Estate were particularly special. After staying in Soufriere and visiting other places, we can say that Balenbouche is like an oasis in St Lucia. The lady who owns the place is such a beautiful person, caring about the guests and staff, animals, and the environment. We felt so welcomed and at home there, and loved the canine company - especially TipTip, who slept at our place one night! We stayed at the Almond Cottage. The place is rustic but comfortable. The beds were made every day, we appreciated that!, and the mosquito nets were a bliss!! Needless to say, the beaches there were just amazing! We were often alone bathing at the two secluded local beaches, just a short walk away! Thank you and all the best to all at Balenbouche!

Ci troviamo a Laboire, nel sud dell’isola. Un’antica fattoria di 70 ettari immersa nel verde e a due passi dal mare, dove è possibile ancora ammirare i resti di antichi mulini ed edifici coloniali. Qui Uta, la titolare, da molti anni ha orientato l’intera proprietà verso l’ospitalità con grande successo, senza intaccare la storia del luogo. La struttura presenta cottage immersi nella natura, di tutte le dimensioni. Io ho alloggiato nella Moringa House un appartamento open air situato al primo piano affacciato sulla campagna circostante con cucina, un ampio terrazzo, camera spaziosa e un bagno con tutti i comfort. La colazione veniva poi servita da Uta ogni mattina nella main Villa, con prodotti freschi e genuini. Da non perdere il tour della proprietà, dove si puo’ capire la storia di questa meravigliosa farm. Per chi ama la natura senza rinunciare al comfort, il luogo ideale per vivere St. Lucia in maniera autentica.

This is such an amazing and relaxing place to stay on St. Lucia. The cottages are charming, safe and private. I have stayed there twice now; once as a solo female traveler and once as a couple. Both stays I felt comfortable, slept like a baby, and enjoyed the meals. I had breakfast and dinner. The meals were lovely. As are the informal chats with the owners and fellow travellers over meals. Walking around the grounds is a must. And saying hello to the different pets & animals who also call Balenbouche home is a treat! Highly recommend!!
