Great stay at Lodge Afrique, with a wonderful host that even provided us with beach towels and a coolbox for the beach. Beautiful and clean lodges in a tropical garden. Very tasty breakfast. All at a walking distance from everything in town.

Room set up was great.
Excellent accueil avec très bon conseil de Roanda Très bon emplacement Très bon petit déjeuner
Tolle Unterkunft mit super Frühstück und einer herzlichen Gastgeberin
Loved the decor and staff
Staff very kind and amazing! Rooms are big and clean. Bit moldy smell in the room.
Prachtige accommodatie, centrale locatie en zeer vriendelijk personeel. Ontbijt was erg goed!
Lodge Afrique est comme un petit paradis avec des lodges entourés d'une végétation luxuriante, au calme bien équipés : grande chambre, lit confortable et de grande taille, salle de bain spacieuse, petite terrasse, douche extérieure Le petit déjeuner est très bon avec chaque matin une nouvelle proposition et notre hôte aux petits soins. Des serviettes pour la plage nous ont été prêtés gratuitement, service de laverie proposé en supplément.
Schoon, gezellig en lekker ontbijt
Het was allemaal prima.
Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt in der Lodge Afrique, einem familiären, sehr gepflegten und liebevoll eingerichteten Anwesen. Unser besonderer Dank gebührt Roanda, die sich mit großer Hingabe um das Wohl ihrer Gäste kümmert. Für uns hat sie im Vorfeld großartige Trips organisiert, die den Aufenthalt zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis gemacht haben. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.
Hele mooie lodge met mooie kamers

Great setting! It feels like you're in a little forest.
Fijne hutjes met oog voor details. De gastvrouw Rhonda is erg aardig en behulpzaam. Er is veel te doen vanaf St Lucia
Eigenlijk niks.
Trotz viel zu früher Ankunft ein herzlicher Empfang einer Mitarbeiterin mit Willkommensgetränk u. Erfrischungstuch. Roanda, die Inhaberin kam sofort von einem anderen Termin, so dass wir unser wunderschönes Chalet beziehen konnten. Die ganze Anlage ist wunderschön, gepflegt und sehr geschmackvoll. Roanda ist überaus herzlich und hat uns mit vielen Tipps und Informationen versorgt. Eine Bootstour sollte man unbedingt über sie reservieren, dort ist man in den besten Händen. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut und wird jeden Morgen sehr dekorativ und individuell hergerichtet. Auch die Schmusekatze Daisy ist zu erwähnen. Das Auto steht in einem sicheren Bereich. Hierher würden wir jederzeit wiederkommen. Vielen Dank.
Da gibt es nichts.
Uitstraling, vriendelijkheid, alles was schoon, ontbijt. Alles was top!

Das ist eine sehr niedliche und schöne Lodge unweit vom Zentrum von St.Lucia. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, besonders Gerda mit ihren medizinischen Können.
Lodge Afrique is delightful. Its reception, sitting and dining areas have been decorated with such thought and attention to detail. There are pictures, memorabilia and artefacts all around giving the feel of a traditional lodge. There is a boardwalk which winds its way under the trees to the ronvaldo-style rooms. The whole place has a special feel. Roanda gve us a really warm welcome and made every effort to ensure our stay was enjoyable.
Die Afrique Lodge ist eine wunderschöne Unterkunft in einer ruhigen Seitenstraße und dennoch nur wenige Gehminuten von Geschäften und Restaurants entfernt. Besonders beeindruckt haben uns der traumhafte Garten sowie die liebevoll angelegten Rondavels, die hübsch eingerichtet sind und über ein geräumiges Bad verfügen. Überall findet man wunderschöne Dekorationen mit viel Liebe zum Detail. Das Frühstück war okay und das Obst wurde jeden Morgen kunstvoll arrangiert. Roanda ist eine sehr sympathische und äußerst aufmerksame Gastgeberin, ihre Tipps und ihre Fürsorge haben unseren Aufenthalt perfekt gemacht. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefüihlt - alles war einfach super. Sehr empfehlenswert!
The whole experience was amazing. Our host Roanda was such a joy to deal with. She was friendly, engaging and an asset to Lodge Afrique. The breakfast was excellent! Thank you for an awesome stay.
Sadly, the weather was not kind to us!! Otherwise, what's not to like!
Honestly a peak experience at lodge Afrique. Roanda, our host, was just lovely - so welcoming and helpful. The small houses are decorated with taste, very clean and well equipped. The hotel is very calm and quiet. The hotel is perfectly located in Saint Lucia, close to the restaurants but not in the main street which is perfect. Breakfast was amazing. Very safe with fences and security (the city is very safe anyway). Honestly nothing to improve everything was just perfect 😊.
Nothing - Could not have been better.
Well located, gorgeous gardens, beautifully decorated, great breakfast and staff, very comfortable rooms, decorated and maintained to a very high standard

Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtete Lodge. Man fühlt sich wie bei Freunden. Sehr zentral, sehr gutes Frühstück, gute Tipps. Danke an Ruanda für Ihre sympathische Art.
Es wäre schön, wenn man die schönen Kunst in der lodge auch kaufen könnte 😁
We were warmly greeted by Roanda and definitely the arrival the place exceeded our expectation. Such a beautiful colourful - African Style accommodation. delicious breakfast, clean room and a beautiful exotic garden. The all the staff were very friendly, helpful and informative. I can highly recommend this establishment and would not hesitate to book there again.
absolutely nothing. Everything there was to like
De kamer was erg schoon en was van alles voorzien. De gastvrouw was ook heel erg aardig en liet ons thuis voelen.
Beautiful African decor, exceptional customer service, excellent breakfast, nice rooms, very hospitable host

Top location in tropical garden, beautiful cottages very well maintained and run by Roanda. She is a perfect host and goes the extra mile to make guests feel home away from home. Staff is extremly helpful and does magic with breakfast every morning.
Roanda was absolute excellent. We were warmly welcomed by her on arrival with a welcome drink. She took the time to explain all the tours and activities available in St Lucia and gave us great recommendations. The palm trees and beautiful garden made us feel like we were on a tropical island. Breakfast was amazing, and everything exceeded our expectations. We truly loved our stay and will definitely be back.
That we could not stay longer
What was promised was delivered...
I can't think of anything to complain about...
Great garden and pool. Lovely place to relax
Nothing. Pillows could be better
Eine wirklich sehr schöne Lodge bis ins kleinste Detail passte alles. Wir wurden herzlich mit einem Begrüßungsgetränk empfangen. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und mit viel Liebe zubereitet.
Keine Beanstandung.
Behulpzaam personeel en locatie
Ruimte rook beetje muf
We had a wonderful stay at Lodge Afrique in St Lucia. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and from the start we felt genuinely taken care of — including a lovely welcome drink on arrival. The lodge has a really cool atmosphere with tropical vibes everywhere: palm trees, lush greenery, and a relaxed feel that immediately puts you in holiday mode. Nice pool. Location-wise it’s ideal: just a short walk to the town center with restaurants and shops nearby, so you don’t need a car to get around. That said, parking is available, which was super convenient. Breakfast was extensive, fresh, and very enjoyable — a great way to start the day. One detail we really appreciated: they even provide a cooler box and beach towels for a day at the beach, which is such a thoughtful touch. Highly recommended if you’re staying in St Lucia!

Wir fühlten uns bei Roanda von Anfang an sehr wohl. Die Lodge Afrique ist wunderschön angelegt – man hat fast das Gefühl, mitten im Dschungel zu wohnen. Roanda war jederzeit aufmerksam und hat all unsere Wünsche erfüllt. Ein besonderes Highlight war St. Lucia selbst: Wir konnten dort tatsächlich Nilpferde durch die Stadt laufen sehen, ein Erlebnis, das man so schnell nicht vergisst. Wir waren vom 25.12. bis 28.12.2025 vor Ort und haben jede Minute genossen. Die Nachtsafari mit Sakile war absolut beeindruckend – spannend, informativ und perfekt geführt. Insgesamt ein großartiger Aufenthalt, den wir jederzeit weiterempfehlen.
Lovely and comfortable freestanding huts in a lush green garden with an amazing attention to detail. There is not one corner or angle that is not decorated. Breakfast is also really good. Staff are lovely and attentative, and Roanda is an amazing host, she made us feel right at home.
Het ziet er in werkelijkheid mooier uit dan op de foto’s . De ontvangst was super vriendelijk en heel uitgebreid qua informatie. Het chalet waarin wij sliepen staat in een prachtige grote tuin vol met tropische planten. Roanda gaf ons veel informatie en tips en we voelen ons thuis. Het ontbijt was top en de locatie is op loopafstand van restaurantjes al met al een hele fijne tijd gehad en echt een aanrader om hier te verblijven.
Eigenlijk was er niks wat tegenviel. We vonden het jammer dat we weg moeten kunnen deze locatie iedereen van harte aanbevelen.
Everything was perfect. Roanda made us feel completely at home and was incredibly helpful. It’s a wonderful place with a beautiful garden and a perfect breakfast.

Our host was exceptionally professional and welcoming, with excellent communication even before our arrival. We were provided with many valuable tips about attractions in the area, which greatly enhanced our stay. The lodge itself is beautifully maintained and truly feels like a five-star resort. The rooms were spacious, immaculate, and exuded a sense of luxury. Overall, the experience exceeded our expectations.
We were greeted by the host on arrival, check was smooth
I dont have any dislikes, it was all good
Excellent lodge to experience the area. So many things to do in St. Lucia. :-). Very nice hosts!
Personnel charmant Organisation des excursions en amont Très beau jardin Chambre confortable Très bon petit déjeuner
Le seul petit élément négatif serait peut être la lumière trop blanche dans la chambre mais c’est vraiment un détail !
Prachtige tuin, comfortabele lodge, vriendelijke personeel, uitstekend ontbijt
Perfect location, love the little bungalows for privacy. Excellent breakfast and wonderful host!

Es war alles unfassbar schön
Wat een fantastisch gezellig verblijf aan het einde van onze vakantie. Je waant je op Bali (althans daar zijn we wel eens geweest dus zo voelde het) Roanda is een vriendelijke host. Het personeel erg aardig. Het zwembad is klein maar prima. het zijn 8 los staande 'huisjes'. Het beste ontbijt van onze vakantie! ruime kamer en badkamer. Minibar. Wifi prima. Goede locatie. Wij zijn naar het dorp geweest met de auto. Het is ook te voet te doen. Je komt in de avond dan wel hippo's tegen die aan het grazen zijn om de hoek... en ook Pumba's. Een leuke gewaarwording. Van hieruit ook het Isimangaliso Wetland park bezocht (zelf drive is prima te doen, wij zagen dezelfde dieren als tijdens de georganiseerde avond drive, die heel hobbelig was maar ook bijzonder) Ook de hippo en Croc tour gedaan.

De eigenaresse Roanda is enorm vriendelijk en heeft het tot in de puntjes verzorgd! Daarnaast verblijf je in een super leuke lodge en word je ‘s ochtends voorzien van een heerlijk ontbijtje. Daarnaast is het plaatje St. Lucia ook heel leuk om te bezoeken. Lekkere restaurantjes en mooie natuur!

Eine tolle Lodge inmitten einer gepflegten Gartenanlage. Es gab jeden Morgen ein anderes besonderes Frühstück. Sehr lecker. Das Personal auch sehr freundlich.
Nichts
Het ontbijt, de service, persoonlijke aandacht, oog voor detail...Echt in alles echt uitmuntend! Toen we vertelden dat we naar Cape Vidal gingen legde het personeel uit eigen initiatief 2 badlakens voor ons klaar in een strandtas... En wij moesten de laatste ochtend vroeg weg (06.30 uur) omdat we de huurauto tijdig moesten inleveren in Durban en van daaruit een interne vlucht hadden naar Port Elizabeth. Toen we dat het personeel tijdens ons verblijf vertelden zorgden ze " gewoon" dat er de avond ervoor een mooi ontbijtpakketje bij ons werd gebracht voor onderweg...hoezo service! En toplocatie op 400 meter van het centrum.
Beautiful, peaceful setting. Lovely comfortable rooms.
Pillows were quite hard.
De eigenaar is super vriendelijk en we voelden ons meteen welkom. Complimenten voor het ontbijt, echt heerlijk! Het zwembad was top en alles zag er heel netjes en verzorgd uit. Een absolute aanrader!
Niks :)
We verbleven 3 nachten en daar zijn we heel blij mee. De perfecte accommodatie om diverse activiteiten te plannen, maar ook te relaxen. De gastvrijheid, de rust en de geweldig aangelegde tuin. Iedere ochtend werden we weer verrast met mooie creaties van de fruithapjes bij het ontbijt.
Helemaal niets
Mooi rustige locatie net buiten het centrum. Goede voorzieningen. Relatief goede internet. Ee wordt veel aandacht besteed aan het creëren van een thuis gevoel. Bij het ontbijt een speciale starter. Aan de balie goede informatie over activiteiten.
Ontbijt is sterk gericht op engels ontbijt. Daarnaast is het aanbod heel beperkt. Te beperkt.
Wij hebben een fantastische tijd gehad bij Lodge Afrique. Roanda en Gerda hebben gastvrijheid enorm hoog in het vaandel en dat merk je in alles. Een niet werkende airco werd direct opgelost middels een andere kamer. Daarbij werd genoemd dat we ons bij elke opmerking moeten laten horen want "het is vakantie en je moet je laten verwennen"! Dames enorm bedankt voor ons relaxte en fijne verblijf.
Niets!
Onwijs vriendelijk personeel, en schone kamers, heerlijk ontbijt!
Prachtig lodge om een paar dagen te verblijven. Mooie tuin waardoor je aparte gezellige sfeer hebt. Personeel heel vriendelijk en bereid om alles voor je te doen.
Nice vegetation
Raining not so good
Absolut alles war erstklassig in der Lodge.
Wij hadden een fantastische tijd in saint lucia door Lodge Afrique! Zo vriendelijke, warme en behulpzame mensen! Wij zouden het iedereen aanbevelen om bij Lodge Afrique te verblijven. 🤩
Alles was perfect!
Friendly and helpful staff who went out of their way to help me when I was sick. The location was beautiful and made for a very peaceful ambiance.
Nothing to claim - everything o.k.
The staff were welcoming and so accommodating, organising multiple tours for us during our stay. The lodge is beautifully decorated and has an outdoor Indonesian vibe with a spectacular tropic garden. Good water pressure in the rooms. Breakfast was made with attention to detail, we recieved a cold and warm breakfast each morning. Can't fault them on anything. The location is perfect, off the main road, and peaceful. Wouldn't stay anywhere else if I came back to St Lucia.
Beautiful, personally run lodge. The deckway to your gorgeous decorated rooms makes you feel like you are in Bali. The personal attention from the host and staff were great. The resident cat cutie pie makes you feel relaxed and down to earth. The decorations around the main entrance have been meticulously thought about and really add to the tropical ambiance. The breakfast every morning was superb. The fruit served as a starter had a different design every day - one day a kebab, the other granola cups, wonderful presentation. full English breakfast, omelets, cheeses, yoghurt, orange juice and excellent coffee. Highly recommended - we will be back. The hosts and staff gave us loads of ideas for day visits and can help arrange early morning game drives. Every morning we were asked if we had spotted the resident "townie" hippos in town at night. Thanks for the excellent stay.
I would have liked an option to maybe have a breakfast as room service one day but they did offer a take away breakfast if you needed so i guess we could have asked for that.

Everything is beautiful. The breakfast is amazing and the service is the best.
The units are too close to each other, if the blinds are open you can see right into the next unit. However this didn’t bother us as we were out most of the day and came back in the late afternoon.
Lodge Afrique is a true gem! The attention to detail throughout the property is exceptional, with beautiful rooms that feel luxurious and inviting. The clever design of the property maximizes the number of chalets while maintaining privacy and charm. The staff are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Their knowledge of the region is impressive, and they offer excellent recommendations on activities and places to visit. Booking activities through the lodge was not only convenient but also more affordable than booking directly. Overall, our stay was absolutely wonderful. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing and well-organized getaway!
There was nothing I didn’t like about my stay. However, I wish I had sought advice on activities at the time of booking, as some were fully booked when the staff tried to arrange them for us upon arrival.
Sehr schöne Unterkunft, ruhig, mit ausreichend Platz, guter Service, geschmackvoll eingerichtet, sehr zu empfehlen.
Very kind team and extremely nice property.
I had an amazing stay at Lodge Afrique! Muriel, our host, went out of her way to make everything perfect. The staff were super helpful, giving us great recommendations and helping us book local tours we wouldn’t have found on our own. Muriel even dropped me off for my horse riding, which was such a thoughtful touch. The hospitality here really reflects the warm and welcoming spirit of South Africa. On top of all that, when I forgot my medication, the staff made sure it was sent to my next destination. Truly exceptional service!
Nothing I can think of!
