La Pelle

Great location in a friendly and safe neighbourhood. The view from the balcony was incredible. Had everything you need for cooking etc. great big powerful shower too in the bathroom. The host was really friendly too and helped us with our luggage. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Soufriere.

Only downside was no air conditioning in the living room or kitchen so basically meant we had to relax in the bedroom which wasn’t ideal

I loved the view, the balcony, and the air-conditioned bedroom and it was clean and secure. The full kitchen, living room and bathroom are nice, although I barely used them since I was out and about. I did make use of the fridge, toaster oven, microwave, tea kettle and dishes. It was very clean and the host was responsive whenever I had a question . The neighborhood and waterfront in Soufriere are a bit of a mixed bag, but there’s so much to do in the soufriere area. I wish I’d had an extra day or two.

The only thing I would change is providing some sugar or honey to go with the tea bags, and possibly reaching out to the guest with a welcome and asking if they had any questions. I felt a bit isolated,

Spacious top floor apartment with nice decor and balcony. Flat is in good location in friendly neighbourhood, a couple of minutes drive to a supermarket, 20 minutes walk to the beach and restaurants. There is also a lunch time restaurant Fedos just a couple of minutes walk doing lovely St Lucian dishes.

Lounge/kitchen did not have air-conditioning but did have a fan.

Location on the 3r floor with a beautiful balcony. Close walk to shops and restaurants. Great bes and shower

The raised floor to the living room & bathroom a bit of a hazard during the night. The host on site was friendly.

Aspect looking onto the town

Clean, spacious apartment. Very comfortable bed & generally very well equipped. Adriana who met us & showed us round was welcoming & helpful. The location was perfect for us surrounded by local residences & a 15 minute walk to the seafront. Nice view from the balcony. Lovely large fluffy towels & generously supplied.

Minor issue but the bathroom door kept sticking, just needs adjustment. The step up & down between the kitchen, living area & the bedroom took some getting used to. We didn't find the washing machine? The 30+ steps up to the apartment could be a problem for those with poor mobility.

Very nice and comfortable apartment in Soufriere with great view to the Petit Piton.

Easy 15 minute walk to anywhere in town. New, clean. Manager Mora is very helpful and quick to communicate.

No issues but the screen door to the balcony has no handle or anything on the inside of the door to use to slide the door open/closed. Maybe add a duvet/comforter for beds

The people

Too short a visit

The place was clean and spacious. The shower is nice and big, with glass, so no curtains sucking in to you. Everything seemed pretty new. Bed is comfortable and they give lots of pillows for options. Adequate dishes and all you should need for appliances big and small. There was beer and water in the fridge - such a nice touch. Enjoying that drink on the patio is lovely! The view here is great. You see the town, a piton and ocean. The location is good. It's in a spot where you get a piton view but don't have to go up high within the village, so while the road isn't great it is nowhere near as bad as the roads to some of the other places further N and NE in Soufriere. We walked to everywhere in town and only used our rental car for things outside of town. Great value for this place! If you want a nice view, clean, modern, private and convenient place to stay at a good rate this should be one of the top contenders.

The lighting needs improvement. There is no light in the kitchen (we brought a tent light for this thanks to other reviews). 2 of the 3 bulbs in bathroom were out and light in living room didn't turn on via a switch (couldn't reach pull string so not sure if the pull string, bulb out or in general not working). Roosters and dogs making noise but you'd hear them staying anywhere right in Soufriere. Could use blackout curtains in bedroom. A/C unit temperature display is very bright at night but, there is a fix! There is a button on the remote that turns off the display.

Fantastic view, especially from the bedroom, nice balcony, comfy and spacious. All in all a great apartment.

AC not available in kitchen, living area. Lighting in kitchen very poor. The bathroom sink blocked but was not fixed after asking the host. Be happy with the local cocks and dogs who get verbal quite early.

This was a great location in Soufriere, close to the supermarket, the beach, walk to diamond falls and botanical gardens, and has a great view and balcony as well!

Location was very good - close to grocery store and walking distance to beach. Definitely gives you a more local experience compared to resorts. The hosts were welcoming and helpful. The space was clean and comfortable.

Air conditioning is only in the bedroom (common and expected in this part of the world), but we could only partially open many of the windows so was difficult to get a breeze. Otherwise the space was perfect for us.

Great accommodation, very clean and in really good location. Close to grocery store, restaurants and other attractions. Very recommended 👍

La Pelle is situated in the New Development area in the back streets of Soufriere, about 20 minutes walk to the centre of the town by a variety of routes and about 7 minutes from a good supermarket. It is part of an attractive looking building and has an excellent view over Soufriere towards Petit Piton both from the balcony and from the bedroom. The bed was very comfortable and the bedroom very effectively air conditioned. We were met on arrival and shown around the property, and it was useful to have this contact while we were there. The main room was very sizeable with a high ceiling, large new kitchen and big dining table.

The aircon did not extend beyond the bedroom except in the form of a high ceiling fan which moved the warm air about. Bizarrely, there was no light in the kitchen area at all, and we had to use mobile phone torches in order to cook in the evenings. The apartment is approached by 36 outside steps: not easy if you are carrying suitcases. As a relatively fit couple in our 70s we just about coped, but be warned!

We had an excellent stay. Everything was very clean and the updated. Our host was very helpful and made check in and out very easy. The location was great and close to all the area’s attractions and beaches. We will definitely stay again on the next trip down.

Really lovely apartment. Modern, stylish and well kitted out. The view from the balcony was gorgeous and well protected from the regular showers giving us a wonderful place to relax.

Slightly longer walk down to the town and beach than we had anticipated and for those in hire cars be warned that the road to the apartment is very bumpy (as many in St Lucia are!)

Spacious and comfortable with lovely view from the balcony. Host very friendly. Handy for Massys supermarket and Fedo's Restaurant. Good location for exploring attractions around Soufriere.

Not enough lighting in cooking area.

The apartment is beautifully furnished, wonderful view of the Piton. Very close is super restaurant Fedo's, supermarket is 5 minutes walk, 15 minutes to the beach. Even Diamond Falls are accessible on foot. Owner helped with booking taxis and local tours. Helpful and nice lady. I did not have the slightest problem with the accommodation.

Location excellent, 15 min walk to seafront. Nice beach. Easy going local restaurants. Very friendly locals .

No hairdryer was literally the only short coming !

View from balcony, bedroom and kitchen. Air-conditioning and 2 fans. We were helped up stairs with a case

A light in kitchen area needed for food preparation and lounge globe with fan replaced.

The apartment was modern and clean. It was well equipped and the hosts were attentive and were quick to react to any questions we had. Lovely view of Soufriere and petit Piton from the balcony.

There was almost no light in kitchen so if you wanted to cook after dark it was challenging. Also there were no bedside lamps in the bedroom.

It’s brand new, we were the first guests. Incredible mountain and sea view both from the balcony and the bedroom - perfect for watching sunrises and sunsets. Well equipped (all kitchen appliances you could wish for, toiletries, towels and beach towels etc) and the hosts (Isaiah) are very helpful and friendly. They carried our luggage, got anything we needed, and also offered to organise trips. The AC is very quiet and efficient in the bedroom. Very convenient location for Pitons, Grand Eden estate, Anse Chastanet, mud bath, botanic gardens, waterfalls, anything in the South. For lunch, Fedo’s nearby is excellent. For groceries Massy offers great variety and it’s only a few minutes walk.

You can park in front of the building, but the street is quite narrow so you end up blocking the entrance - just a minor inconvenience. Also the streets in Soufrière are quite difficult to drive on, but this is true for most of the island.

The location is great, less than 5 minutes away from the town. The place is fairly new, so everything works and is in a great condition! The hosts were always reachable and responded promptly....
