If you like sleeping with bugs and feel like you are camping/glamping it’s a great spot. If you are expecting a nice hotel with zero bugs and luxury this isn’t the place.

Fond Doux felt like a safe haven on an otherwise rough island. Our cottage was cute and clean, the grounds were very pretty and we enjoyed exploring the property. The chocolate making tour is not to be missed. Much of the staff, however is not particularly friendly or efficient. Service at the restaurants eas very slow and unreliable (none seemed to open at the times they said they would) and even though you may be the only ones dining or drinking at the moment, don't expect speedy service. The food is just ok. We learned really quickly that this level of service (casual indifference) is standard all over the island, but that being said, we hoped it would be a bit better at this resort. Would still recommend a stay at Fond Doux, but lower your expectations for the service.

This place was amazing!! Such a romantic place. Very peaceful, great food, our cottage was perfect. Pool area was amazing and the hike from the resort to view the Pitons was breathtaking. Don’t forget the chocolate tour!! Can’t wait to come back.

This place is a hidden gem. The pictures they have posted doesn't give this place the accolades it deserves. The staff amazing beyond measures. They are extremely knowledgeable about the history, their guests and the island. They make your stay feel like home and very accomodating. Mrs. Jenny, Ms. Giana. Ms. Adel will makes sure your cottage accommodation are met and adjusted friendly and welcoming. Ms. Dora, Ms. Shamara, n Ms. Grace will make sure your food is topnotch and up to par. My bartender Gienwene make the drinks with a smooth and powerful punch. The cook Mr. Chris chief's kiss amazing. Hi. Mr. Thomas. Clinton was our historian tour guide knowledgeable and humorous. We enjoyed the petite piton trail view was beautiful. I enjoyed the cats coco n whisky. Rio the dog is a lady's bodyguard. He always likes to make sure all women are safe. Like O said before this place was magical and amazing. Pluse budget friendly. No complaints for this place. Cant wait to come back.

Hello My Name is Airaka Dumas. Recently did a Solo trip here in Saint Lucia for my birthday and was able to stay at the wonderful Fond Doux Eco Resort! The staff was incredible! We are like family now! Took very good care of me. They made getting transportation easy around the island! The hotel restaurant is great and affordable as well. So if don’t desire to eat anywhere else, it’s okay they have everything you need. Also they have a list of things to do at the resort or excursions away from the resort. They can help you set up, anything you need, so don’t worry about what you will do. I give Fond Doux Eco Resort 10 out of 10! I’m going to miss you all, but I will be back very soon. -Airaka

Loved Fond Deaux. Nestled into nature with a nice hike up to see Sugar beach and the Petit Piton. The staff is absolutely wonderful. Great massage by Suella. From the front desk staff, dining room and gift shop/chocolate experience, even the all natural “nature music” at night, all great! I personally LOVED the outside shower 😄 would hands down stay there again.

We love Fond Doux. The property is magic. It’s peaceful, and everyone is so kind, and the food is out of this world. If you want peace in a lush setting in an eco friendly environment that is owned and operated by St. Lucians, this is the place. Go!

Last minute decision!
Our flight out of Saint Lucia was cancelled by American Airlines last minute. I found Fond Doux and was so happy that we did. Everyone was welcoming and very friendly. We ended up staying two nights while waiting for a flight back home to Miami. We toiled in after the restaurant was closed and the chef was nice enough to make us egg sandwiches and a fruit plate delivered to our cottage. The property is in a beautiful location, very lush and jungle feel. The place itself could use some TLC and a good renovation. We used the free shuttle to Sugar Beach the next day and had a good time there.

Beautiful rustic property set in wonderful vegetation. Felt very secluded but would have been useful to have a car, otherwise very expensive to get anywhere. Shuttle to sugar beach was a nice touch. The chocolate tour at the hotel was great, all be it a tad expensive. Dinner service at the hotel was slow but this was rectified on our 2nd night. No children’s menu available but the kids had a great time in the little pools & watching the chickens. The staff at reception could not have been more friendly & helpful. With a few small tweaks this place will be magical!

Our flight was canceled so we ended up here in a cocoa plantation late at night. It was rustic but quite beautiful & quiet once the sun rose. Staff were helpful. A bit like camping in a cabin but charming.

The hotel premises are amazing, you're basically staying in a botanical garden. Everyone gets their own cottage which is a very nice touch, it does feel isolated if you're staying by yourself. This is not a 4 star hotel as far as the rooms are concerned, the cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired. Could be amazing with more attention to detail and service.

This is a unique property that needs updating and management to properly run it. Location is good proximity to attractions, rooms and facility needs attention. Restaurant served same food and better options with a view are only minutes away. Staff are great but needs management to ratchet things up. This is a 3-star facility that could easily get to 4 stars with some effort.
