Overall Ratings & Reviews Fond Doux Eco Resort

Amazing resort set in the side of. Mountain. Beautifully maintained grounds and rooms/cottages. Hiking trails, pools, a chocolate factory all on-site. We had a hotel room. It had a front patio, refrigerator, large shower w hot water--all super clean. The restaurant was good, but pricey. Staff was very helpful and we wanted for nothing. We would definitely stay here again.

Fond Doux Resort is an absolute gem and we enjoyed it so much more than anticipated! From the moment I arrived, I felt surrounded by the most beautiful, untouched nature. The sounds of birds, tree frogs, and rustling leaves were constant companions, making it feel like I was truly immersed in the rainforest. Everywhere I turned, there were towering trees, colorful flowers, and fruit hanging from branches—it felt so alive and vibrant. We stayed in the cottage furthest away, which meant walking through the forest and up a series of stairs to get there. At first, we thought it might get tiring, but honestly, it was magical every single time. I found myself wishing I could do that walk every day—again and again—because it made me feel so connected to the nature around me. Our cottage was so private, and so many birds came to visit, almost like they were just as curious about us as we were about them! We also loved spending time at the pool, soaking in the beautiful views and just enjoying the peacefulness of the resort. I was truly so sad to leave. In fact, before checking out, I even walked back up to our cottage one last time, just to see it again and take in the moment. If you love nature, the sounds of the rainforest and want an authentic St. Lucian experience, Fond Doux is the place to be!! I absolutely loved my stay and I shall cherish my time there. Thank you!!

We had a wonderful week on St Lucia and the Fron Doux was a big part of it. It felt like home with the very attentive staff

The property is gorgeous and beaming with trees producing fruits and spices, beautiful flowers, and their heritage cocoa. The chocolate made exclusively onsite is so incredibly delicious and the smell wafts through the air. Every staff member is friendly and attentive to your needs to ensure a pleasant stay. The restaurant serves food grown on the property and every meal was delicious. The history of the plantation and of St. Lucia is preserved and acknowledged at Fond Doux. The quaint cottages are built from French Colonial homes around the island that were dismantled and repurposed. At Fond Doux they are committed to being eco- friendly to protect the beautiful rainforest they have been given responsibility to care for over the past two generations.

Such a beautiful setting with excellent hospitality. We loved our very private cabin (Calabash) nestled amongst the rainforests. The resort respected its history and delicate ecological spaces. Every staffer went above and beyond. We felt cared for and appreciated as guests, this by far was a bright and shing star in all our travels. Meals were delicious, properly prepared albeit a limited menu. Loved the nightly chef's specials. Housekeepers were very attentive and responsive to our needs with clean crisp sheets and shiny floors. My wife and I were so relaxed. This is not a cookie cutter, everything brand new, corporate-owned resort. The owners (Mr. and Mrs. LaMontagne) were lovely people. We want to thank everyone on the resort for sharing such a beautiful island retre

Super friendly staff. Great breakfast. Restaurant was very good and reasonably priced. Gorgeous well maintained property. Very authentic and charming cottages. Excellent front desk with concierge service. Highly recommend

Unique

The area is beautiful. The rooms are clean. The staff is friendly.

I had a fantastic stay as a solo traveler. The service from every single staff member was excellent, and my room was spotless. I was very satisfied with everything. The food was delicious, and I really appreciated the available transportation to Sugar Beach.Thee hiking trail on the property was a wonderful bonus—I highly recommend it! The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful, and they offered many great services. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Loved our private cottage, including the outdoor shower. Staff were wonderful. Proximity to waterfalls and sulfur springs/ mud baths was great. The hike up to our cottage was steep. Food quality was generally good (fried fish and lobster/shrimp dishes were a miss). Singer one night was excellent. The pools need to be maintained (we weren’t comfortable using them), and the old faded books at the pool should be discarded and a new rack with doors installed. Despite these items, we still really enjoyed staying there. Some investment would bring the rating up to “excellent”.

Nice setting and staff, but property / room rather run down for the price.

Really lovely little place in a beautiful lush setting. Comfy & quiet rooms with aircon and a wonderful buffet breakfast with a good variety of hot & cold food, fresh fruit and cakes. We had lunch and dinner at the restaurant, good price (cheaper than in town) and delicious food. The staff was really friendly. We used the free shuttle to beautiful Sugary beach and walked to Tet Paul - a lovely walk with a beautiful view. Having a car would be a plus to get to the mud bath, volcano, waterfalls, Soufrier and beach. They are all about a 15-20 min drive away. We used taxis but they are a bit expensive on the island.

The property is a little tired and needs a refresh.

A very special place my cottage so wonderful very quaint. Dinner at the restaurant was amazing

The gardens are beautiful and well maintained. The front desk is very helpful arranging transportation.

Special thanks to Ferisha and Clinton who were especially helpful but you can’t go wrong staying at this place. The accommodations were fabulous and the staff was very nice and helpful. We met the owner and his wife as they were eating breakfast and they we soooo accommodating. With our initial booking we could not get the deluxe house we reserved but we still got the two bedroom cottage. Very spacious and nice. Be prepared to walk, but the walk is very beautiful and the entire grounds are serene. I would definitely recommend staying here and can’t wait to come back!

Love that this hotel is St Lucian owned and an eco-friendly establishment.

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.

Overpriced relative to level of service and quality of Accomodation’s.

It’s was very private and intimate for couples. Just amazing.
