Taste the cuisine, carefully curated with ingredients from the farm, enjoy a calming massage at the Beauté de Cacao Spa, take the complimentary shuttle down to the beach, or soak in sunset views aboard the private boat.

Review
Small, boutique property situated slap bang in front of the Grand Piton giving stunning views. A communal pool offering the most instagramable photo opportunities. The rooms have an outdoor/indoor living feel with doors opening the entire width of the room to unveil the views of the pitons - sitting on your balcony/terrace with a fresh cup of choccie feeling at one with nature is dreamy here! The property is obviously all about their chocolate and is encorporated in every meal, some cocktails and even with Spa Treatments. They offer a whole host of experiences like a hike up to the natural spring and mud baths. It is a fantastic option for a 2 night stay before heading onwards to your more beach located hotel.
