A glamping experience in a tropical paradise.The garden, full of fruit trees and flowering shrubs is beautiful.The tent and outdoor kitchen provide everything you need.A short walk to some restaurants on the beach and a little further to the Massy, but quite doable.

Stay at Lumiere with 2 of our best friends for the week. Amazing time and place!! Chad (owner) was extremely accommodating and communicative with us the whole time. The “tent experience “ was 1st class and would recommend it to anyone coming to St Lucia! The referral Chad gave us for a transfer service was also incredible. Brad (owner) of Simple Transfers was very professional, courteous, punctual and very trustworthy. He was there when we needed him theoughout the journey. Can’t wait to return soon! - Chris

Total Paradise!!

Lumiere is total paradise!! Such an incredible private oasis with a stunning view of the ocean and the sunset. We stayed here for 5 nights and loved every minute of it!! Chad has thought of everything, down to the tiniest detail! We were so close to Vigie beach and Castries, but really didn’t want to leave our private paradise. Thank you Chad for creating a beautiful oasis!! We will never forget our time at Lumiere

Luxury glamping at its best

We absolutely loved the property. It’s the best place to unwind and it was my favorite place on the north side of the island. It’s exactly as pictured. I appreciated all the little touches from mint tea to toothpaste and more. The kitchen area was well equipped. The tent, deck, pool and garden were all designed with an attention to detail. We loved watching the cruise ships pass by. It was quite a show.

My stay was absolutely fabulous. Expect for.. hindsight I thought it was irregular that the property was unlocked a couple of times after our day out in town. I’d placed most of valuables in safe except for a Jade beaded anklet I’ve been wearing for 30 yrs..has vanished from night stand. Not holding owner responsible.. ugly things happen. Just letting you know. I had an awesome stay

Fantastic!

We were a bit hesitant as it was a new listing but we were so impressed with everything. The "tent" was certainly much more than that; it didn't even seem like a tent! The king bed was very comfortable with excellent linens.The outdoor shower was like a spa experience. The outdoor kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to cook meals. Thought we might need the AC but the ocean breezes changed our minds. The property is so large that you feel secluded but are not far from town. We enjoyed seeing the cruise ships come and go from the port every day. We did rent a car but the small airport is very close with many taxis available for hire. Dayna was a great help in getting us familiar with the property. It was so very relaxing and calming, wish we had stayed for longer than the 4 nights! One of our top VRBO experiences!

Zen, Relax, Privacy, Everything we expected and some more!!!

Our stay at this property was nothing short of perfect! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a peaceful and private atmosphere that instantly made us feel at ease. The property was exactly as described—if not better!One of our favorite moments was soaking in the tranquility by the pool, completely immersed in the serene surroundings. We were initially a little skittish about being near the entry to the cruise ship port, but it turned out to be a non-issue. In fact, it became an unexpected source of entertainment, watching the ships come and go without it ever feeling intrusive.Originally, we had planned a couple of trips to local attractions and beaches, but once we settled in, we realized we didn’t want to leave! The property had everything we truly needed for a perfect, relaxing escape. From the beautifully designed interiors to the peaceful outdoor spaces, every moment here felt like a retreat in itself.The hosts clearly put a lot of care into making sure guests have a comfortable and seamless experience. Communication was easy, and every little detail was well thought out.Simply put, this was a slice of "zenny" heaven. The only problem? Our stay was too short! We can’t wait to return.

Perfection!

We are so happy we booked Lumiere. What an amazing spot and we want to go back.For our trip, we rented a car from UVF. The drive is a bit hairy but we managed. The host offers to figure out drives if that’s what you prefer. Took us a bit over 2 hours. There is a grocery store right at the last roundabout before you head toward Vigie. It’s only about a 3 min drive away. The property itself is secluded, secure and close enough to amenities and restaurants that you don’t feel so far away. The proximity to the smaller airport and the large cruise port was initially concerning, but like previous reviewers commented, it actually became a source of entertainment. We loved watching all of the catamarans, boats, small planes going by. Don’t be discouraged by this! You’ll love it and still feel like you’re in your own private spot. Property is tastefully decorated, loads of space and the view is unmatched. We spent most of our time enjoying coffee down on the lower deck or relaxing in the pool.There isn’t a sandy beach on this property but there is water access. The water is so warm and my husband loved to snorkel. Vigie beach is so close if you want some white sand. All of the towels, kitchen amenities, pool floaties, snorkelling gear are there. The only thing I would have liked was an extra blanket. Bed and pillows are otherwise very comfortable. View from your morning wake is spectacular.Communication with owner Chad and host Dayna was easy and friendly. Book this place!!
