The Beach House beachfront guesthouse in Soufriere, St Lucia is the perfect getaway for the independent traveller who is looking for a Creole St Lucian sojourn in the island’s cultural heartland. An elegant, tropical five-room property, The Beach House suits both those who want to unwind and do little, as well as those who wish to use it as a launching point from which to take advantage of the southern district’s many offerings.

Soufriere presents the visitor with an insight into its colourful and dynamic history, and some of the island’s most breathtaking scenery, including the iconic Pitons. The friendly staff with local expertise are happy to help suggest a customised itinerary. The beach is just steps away from the rooms, a cool, crystalline counterpoint to warm Caribbean days. The Soufriere bay is a fishing priority zone and early mornings and evenings are filled with the mesmerising activity of fishermen landing their nets and sorting their catch.

At the on-site restaurant, enjoy uniquely tropical flavours while taking in Piton views. The Beach House Restaurant serves up authentic Creole cuisine from farm-fresh produce on a picturesque deck overlooking the waterfront.

The town of Soufriere is a short walk away, and many of the sights are within a few minute’s drive. At day’s end however, guests always appreciate the quiet retreat that is The Beach House.
