Anse Chastanet Resort is renowned for its easy access to spectacular diving, but it also holds the key to unlock thrilling adventures, gourmet dining and rejuvenating wellness programs for its guests. Located on a 600-acre estate with two stunning beaches that border a marine protected reserve, it is home to the organic Emerald Estate farm, which supplies the resort with fresh produce and cacao, and four restaurants, including an entirely vegan one, where guests enjoy exceptional culinary diversity. Guests can also take complimentary yoga and fitness classes and escorted walks and hikes in the island’s lush landscape.

You won’t be disappointed if you are seeking a vacation experience that allows you to discover the natural beauty, local food, arts and culture of St. Lucia. For more than 50 years, the resort has been a hideaway that is in complete harmony with its natural environment. The individually designed rooms have tropical flower-draped balconies and louvered windows, offering stunning views of the Pitons and Caribbean Sea, and are decorated with original art and furnishings made by St. Lucian artists and craftsmen, including Madras textiles incorporated in the room decor. Anse Chastanet also supports local artisans in the resort’s boutique and pop-ups and hosts nightly live music. For guests, it all adds up to an authentic Saint Lucian experience.

Divers love the resort’s location, just moments from spectacular dive sites that are only a 10- to 15-minute boat ride away. The on-site dive shop, Scuba St. Lucia, is a PADI Five Star operator.
