Affordable, Luxurious, Bay View Apartment
LA ROSE APARTMENT is the premiere spacious and luxurious two bedroom apartment located within the newly built BAYSIDE VILLA ST. LUCIA - a private property offering three apartments (L'IXORA, LA MARGUERITE and LA ROSE Apartments), in a quiet residential area located on the outskirts of Castries City, St. Lucia and perched 145 ft above the Caribbean Sea on the La Toc hillside.
LA ROSE Rates are as follows: HIGH SEASON (Dec 01-May 15) - $95/night for 5+ nights LOW SEASON (May 16-Nov 30) - $85/night for 5+ nights MINIMUM STAY: 4 nights (rates are subject to change without notice)
NOTE: Tax & Service Charge Included CHECK-IN: 4:00pm ; CHECK-OUT: 11:00 noon
LA ROSE APARTMENT is surrounded by rich natural vegetation, and boasts a panoramic view of the tranquil Castries City Bay, Vigie Peninsula, Vigie Lighthouse, George Charles Airport (SLU), Vigie Cove Marina, Point Seraphine Duty Free Shopping Complex & Cruise Ship Terminal and Castries City; as well as a hint of the island’s breathtaking northern region from Choc Bay to Gros Islet, visible just beyond the picturesque Vigie Peninsula.
The elegant fully furnished self catering LA ROSE APARTMENT is engulfed by all that guests would require for an enjoyable stay. You are within walking distance (½ mi) from the sun-drenched white sand La Toc Beach and it's fun water sports; a beautiful undulating 9 hole Golf Course manicured to perfection; and the Redland Spa featuring its 'Rub-A-Dub-Dub Two In A Tub' full body massage special. Also, the public transportation “bus stop” is but a one minute walk away from the apartment.
The Castries Bay area is home to many delightful restaurants and bars, which are located either on the shoreline of the Vigie Cove (3 mi drive) or downtown central Castries (2 mi drive). Castries City, Rodney Bay Village (6 mi drive north) and Gros Islet Town (6.5 mi drive north), with their many exquisite restaurants, bars and night life traditionally beckons all. However, the local flavors emerging from the “Fish Fry Festival” in Anse La Ray Village (6.6 mi drive south), as well as the restaurants and marina night life at Marigot Bay (4.5 mi drive south) cannot be out done and eagerly awaits you.
If shopping is your forte, Castries City is your place. The shops in central Castries, and in the newly built Blue Coral Mall, offer everything you can possibly need at very attractive prices. However, if you fancy duty free shopping this can be achieved within La Place Carenage Duty Free Shopping Mall in central Castries, and at the Point Seraphine Duty Free Shopping Complex - a 3 minute ferry ride from La Place Carenage to the opposite side of the Castries Bay.
LA ROSE APARTMENT, with its private balcony entrance, provides guests with independence, privacy, relaxation and security. The apartment is designed to house two adults with a maximum of two children up to 12 years. Older children or larger groups may require an addition apartment on property. Note, our hillside location may not be suitable for guests with walking challenges.
After your airport pickup the chauffeur will stop at a supermarket / convenience store, allowing you to “stock up” with supplies for your vacation. Otherwise simply e-mail the shopping list at least 48 hrs before your arrival. Your room will be charged with your pre-arrival purchase.
It is your vacation and we are equipped to make it the most enjoyable and memorable holiday you have ever experienced. Your wedding, car rental, deep sea fishing, taxi tour to Soufriere Sulphur Springs and Piton Mountain Peaks (13 mi drive), rainforest sky rides, helicopter tours, morning jogs with the property owners, etc., are all easily arranged. You request it, we will provide it ....... guaranteed!!!
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a fenced private yard.

Nice apartment but not luxury
To start with the positive. We loved the location over looking the harbour, the accommodation offers good space, the equipment provided is as you would expect for self catering and the small verander at the front is just large enought to sit outside for drinks or eating. On top of this the host was very responsive to request and really helpful. So we did enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend the propety.However, the one negative. This property is publicise as luxury and we were looking forward to a bit of a treat at the start of our holiday. Unfortunately that is not the case. Whist everything is generally functional its also old, a bit tiered and some aspects awkward to use. Don't be put off by this, its got lots going for it, just don't expect anything you would describe as luxury.

Everything was incredibly well organized and clean. John and Shirley were great with details such as airport transfer, finding a convenient car rental, and the like.
This is a great location doing activities both in the north and the south.

Our first Vrbo experience
The place was great, the hosts were great, the view of Castries and the harbour was the best thing to wake up to. With kids in tow, it was a little far away from the beaches that they enjoyedAlthough there is a nice beach across the rii oh ad.

Terrific view- difficult access
This property, located high on a steep hill, has a terrific view of St. Lucia harbor. The property is well maintained, clean, and adequately equipped, although it would be helpful to have a toaster and a hot water kettle (for tea drinkers). Because of its location a rental car ($100 a day)is necessary to get around St. Lucia and the host can arrange that for you very easily, with the car being brought to you. What could be a challenge is the very steep and very badly maintained driveway to the property and if you are in the bottom three units, you will need to park at the very edge of the driveway, close to a sharp drop from the hill.
St. Lucia is beautiful and the people are truly friendly and hospitable. For some visitors the problem may be that the multiple Sandals Resorts and others control the biggest parts of the beaches and while you can walk their beaches, you cannot use theme (no rental chairs or food) There are chairs, umbrellas, restaurants on a nice beach next to the airport -- your enjoyment will depend on your reactions to planes landing and taking off. For some, the multiple cruise ships that dock in St. Lucia every day (four of the six days we were there were three ships a day) which results in the island being subject to large number of cruise people heading off to the various island attraction making overcrowding that we did not enjoy.

Be prepared for amazing view on arrival
Great apartment; maybe not the one we were expecting, as the descriptions on the HomeAway site are confusing, but great none the less. Terrific view, and very helpful and knowledgeable owner on site. Difficult vertical access track to negotiate, but could not fault apartment

Convenient to bus although fairly steep hill getting to the apartment so not suitable for anyone with mobility issues.

What you see is what you get!!
We spent a month in the Bay View Villa apartments during February 2017. Everything about the property was as good or better than shown in the listing. The owners, John and Shirley, are charming and extremely helpful during your stay. The view is exceptional and you can watch the cruise ships enter and leave the bay. We rented a car at the airport and drove to Castries, but I might suggest that you allow John to arrange to have you picked up at the airport and have him arrange a car be brought to the property for you to rent. A number of the others renting from him did just that. If you wish you can just walk a half block to the street and use the local bus to save the cost of a car. What you see is what you will get at Bay View and it is exceptional!! We loved everything about it.
