Banbou Terrace

this is such a lovely property with a million dollar view. the apartment was clean, comfortable, spacious, and had reliable wifi during my stay. the full kitchen was well appointed and the villa’s owner, Ruphena, even stocked a complimentary supply fresh fruits and beverages which made my stay feel like home away from home. the property is located on a quiet road not far from the UVF airport. Ruphena is truly the best part of the property. she truly is went above and beyond to accommodate my stay and make my family member’s birthday one to remember. i would definitely stay at this property again.

From the moment we arrived, we were completely charmed by this lovely hotel. Nestled in a quiet and picturesque setting, it offered the perfect blend of warmth, comfort, and character. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and every detail—from the thoughtfully decorated rooms to the peaceful common areas—was clearly curated with care. What truly set our stay apart, however, was the host. Gracious, attentive, and genuinely kind, they went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Whether it was sharing local recommendations, directed us to a delightful breakfast, or simply checking in to ensure we had everything we needed, Ruphena’s hospitality was truly next-level. We left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and already planning our next visit. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with a personal touch, this hidden gem is not to be missed. Highly recommended!

Great

This private Terrace was tuck away where even some of the locals had no idea of this Gem. The view alone from the rooftop is a must see. We enjoyed every moment and would definitely stay again. St. Lucia people are good people. Respect!

Ruphena, the owner, made my family feel welcomed and was very helpful in providing information regarding local restaurants and island attractions. Her communication was excellent prior to and during our stay. The property was extremely clean and beautiful.

Great host and very lovely accommodation. Very clean and inviting. Lovely view and close amenities. Highly recommended.

We wanted a 2 night stay closer to the airport after spending a week in Rodney Bay. Found this property which had great reviews and we can see why. It’s set up on the mountain with a superb view of the east coast and Atlantic sea. The accommodation is well presented with a modern feel. Living area with kitchen and a separate bedroom (with AC) and en suite. The host was there to meet us on arrival and gave a tour around the property which has 3 apartments across 2 floors with the terrace on the top floor. Great for star gazing or watching the sunrise. We did both! There are a flight of stairs to the 1st floor and 2 flights to the 4 bed apartment so consider this for your luggage. There is ample parking on and off the property. The pool was great for the first half of the day sunbathing before the sun is blocked by the building. It’s a bit isolated from shops, bars restaurants so to get about a car is essential unless you use the local taxi services (numbers on the welcome pack). We found it a bit difficult to locate as the pin drop was incorrect on the app. The host was informed and is looking to correct but for those who use What3words the precise location is ///humans.warmth.reloads In summary great for a short or long break!

This property is in a beautiful setting, surrounded by tropical fruit trees, with a great view of the ocean. The kitchen was well stocked with appliances, cookware, utensils, etc. The bedroom was comfortable and quiet. It was a very peaceful setting. The only issue is getting up the lane if you are driving yourself. It's a bit bumpy and rough, but manageable. Our hostess, Raphena, did a good job of recommending local restaurants and told us about a nice beach nearby. We really enjoyed our stay.

The property was Great! A little hard to find up in the mountains but definitely worth the drive. Owner was extremely nice and willing to assist with anything. Thank you!

The view from the terrace absolutely beautiful, the pool is a wonderful way to wake up. Ruphena is the greatest host ever. She goes above and beyond to make sure that her guests have everything need and are happy. I had an amazing time both at the villa and on the island. I most definitely be coming back and staying here. I couldn't have a better time and a place to stay if it wasn't for Ruphena

Lovely stay - well equipped and everything easy. I forgot my lap top and the host was kind enough to meet me halfway to airport - above and beyond service

Great place to stay, very modern & clean! Great customer service you will really enjoy your stay ! The road driving up is alittle rocky but what part of St. Lucia isn’t ! Loll

This place is excellent for a getaway. The host Ruphina made sure my partner were comfortable. The scenery is superb and so freaking beautiful. There’s a rooftop patio with a tv and fireplace to enjoy. It was a great experience that we enjoyed. We even got complimentary fruits and fresh coconut water. If you are second guessing, DON’T, JUST BOOK IT.

Ruphena was the best host ever. She stayed in touch with us ensuring we had all we needed. The place was very clean, quiet, and safe. The view on the top deck was amazing. I would highly recommend this place to. anyone visiting St Lucia

The stay was great. The property was clean and peaceful. The property manager Ruphena was very helpful and took care of her guest. I would recommend this to anyone.

Amazing host coupled with breathtaking views made my stay amazing

Apartment was clean, comfortable & very modern. It had a small, clean swimming pool that we took advantage of several times. It had modern kitchen appliances & a subscription to Netflix. The bedroom was big & cool with a modern air conditioner. The bed was king size. The bathroom was large with a big walk in shower. The parking was easy & safe. Ruphena was a friendly & accomodating host. She showed where the cool restaurants were in Vieux Fort & gave us fresh Mango’s for breakfast. She gave us a bottle of Rose wine for a special toast. Thanks Ruphena!

First of all Ruphena was very lovely and accommodating. She went out of her way to make our stay a wonderful one. The Villa was very clean, and spacious. The view from every level was spectacular. It’s a short ride from the airport. We will stay at Banbou Terrace on future visits and highly recommend it to anyone who is planning on visiting the island.

Villa was very nice and clean. It's like you brought home with you on your travel. Scenic vew was to die for. Especially for sunrise. But best of all the highlight of the whole experience was the hostess Ruphena. She is super friendly and helpful. She will go above and beyond just so that your stay there is one to remember. Definitely would recommend to anyone and for sure my future stay whenever i am on the island.

Property was clean and host very accommodating
