方德多克斯生態度假酒店 (Fond Doux Eco Resort)

星級評價以住宿資訊（酒店提供的服務及設施等）綜合因素為準，僅供參考

This is a 250 year-old plantation with updated cottages spread throughout over the property. If you like a natural and lush environment, you will be VERY happy here. Proximity to the sites of St. Lucia are perfect, considering most of them are in the Soufriere area. This is just south of town in the edge of the rainforest. The staff is attentive and helpful and the restaurant is pretty good so you could eat here all you want, but there are excellent restaurants in the area if you want to get off property. They have some accommodations in the front where you would not have to do a lot of stairs, but many of the cottages are on a hilltop with a lot of stairs to access them. Be careful as you pick your cabin to make sure it is compatible withyour physical abilities. The staff is personable and they have a free shuttle to Sugar Beach every day just a few minutes away, and they provide beach towels. I would also highly recommend the chocolate inside considering there’s a fraction of the price of the nearby resort. We enjoyed it, but you’d need to be a nature lover to really appreciate it

Stayed one night after flight was delayed, having been at Sandals in the North. I'd describe the hotel as a bit quirky and rustic (in a good way). The staff were friendly and helpful and the food we had was reasonable. It's really about the environment you are in than the amenities. Our 'cabin' Ginger Lily was spacious, with a comfy bed and A/C. Cleanliness was ok and on a positive note, no mosquito bites at all. There is a large swimming pool and 3 smaller which looked fine to swim in but don't expect bright blue tiled surface. High point for me was the Piton view trail, which although quite a hike was worth the effort given the view from the viewing point. The hotel is also well located for nearby attractions e.g. sulphur springs, drive in volcano, botanic gardens and Hotel Chocolat experience (which we did and was fun). I think the hotel do their own chocolate experience as well. Personally I wouldn't choose to stay a week here, but for a night or two it makes for a change from the norm and does feel a bit like getting back to nature.

Rooms need mosquito nets or similar deterrent. They have them in room photos but not our room! Beautiful location and love that they employ so many locals. Restaurant and especially drinks so terribly over-priced. Good location for sites though. More an eco resort and tropical garden than a chocolate farm. The tour was way over priced. $50 usd for 35 mins. Whitney who did garden tour was great but chocolatier was v disengaged and poor. Also couldn’t even answer basic questions (what temp is used to heat the chocolate ingredients). Also completely skipped bean roasting and more. Decent spot but would not return unless nets added.

Absolutely loved our stay! Such a beautiful property amongst all of the foliage. So much offered by the resort, including a great viewpoint hike right on the property! And the staff! Everyone was so nice and welcoming, we felt like we were right at home. Highly recommend to anyone staying in St Lucia.

I really wanted to love this 250 year estate. I loved The history , the idea of the chocolate estate and supporting local . This could be a real gem and I am aware it gets great reviews that’s why I chose it I will say for a night or two may be ok I would not do longer than that . We had the cottage with a pool . It’s not the resorts fault this is a very eco type hotel in that there is no hot water in the shower for example and they say it’s an outdoor shower but it really was more a gas station shower that went wrong . The pool is like ice and I like cold water cause there is no sun and the outdoor pool by pool looked like post apocalypse with one or two beach chairs and weeds . The pictures online def have been enhanced . The mosquito net in our room is ripped and just worn out and at night the solar light would go on and off into our window every few minutes . The restaurant is not great and the drinks are expensive for what they are and the worst part was when they used Hersheys syrup in a cocoa drink instead of the cocoa from the plantation . There was actually not one recipe or drink that involved the plantation cocoa and I think They really missed the boat on that . Next door they are embracing that at the other resort . I think This could be a great place but there is a line of eco friendly and historic and just plain not well maintained. Hopefully it will improve it was just tired looking .

Amazing staff

Great place!

This is a unique resort to stay in and experience… truly eco and part of the landscape and an active cocoa plantation. Access to hiking is amazing and falling asleep to rainforest sounds- frogs, rain, etc.- is an experience you won’t get at other resorts. The cabins are private and have AC, mosquito nets for the bed (although we really didn’t need it), a decent sized fridge, coffee maker (amazing coffee!), electric kettle. The resort staff are absolutely wonderful! One of the owners talked with us on our last day, asked us about our trip and wanted to know what we liked and what could be improved. I’m sorry I don’t recall her name, but she’s wonderful and cares for the beautiful place she and her husband have created and wants to continuously improve on it for their customers. I have never experienced anything like that and it was a level of customer service that I think other resorts should aspire to. Here are my reasons for 4 stars instead of 5 for a few of the sections- cleaning and maintaining an eco resort in a rainforest must be an uphill challenge. Keeping that in mind, yes, our cabin needed some TLC in the bathroom (cracked sink, maybe some updating), but we had an outdoor shower! In the rainforest! I think there are some travelers for whom those details (the sink, etc) are important and then perhaps Fond Doux may not be the best choice for them. My family loved our stay. We’re especially grateful to the resort staff and drivers for sharing their island with us!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Fond Doux Eco Resort in Soufrière, St. Lucia. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by lush tropical scenery, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy the island’s natural beauty. What truly made our experience exceptional was the outstanding restaurant and bar staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our stay. Their warm hospitality made us feel right at home, and they always went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. The food and drinks were excellent, and the service was consistently top-notch. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, we were treated like valued guests. We highly recommend Fond Doux Eco Resort to anyone visiting St. Lucia and look forward to returning in the future.

Amazing mango and cocoa from the property. Rooms were great, especially with the cool dunk pool connected. The hiking trail to the Piton view is a must - great way to explore the property. Clinton gave an incredible tour of the cocoa collection and preparation process. Staff was very attentive, food and drinks were exceptional. Will definitely return for our next visit to St. Lucia.
