Wonderful stay in a great location for Castries and northern part of island
Clean, spacious 2nd floor of house atop a hill looking over the Castries port. Don't be put off by security bars on doors and windows - we had no issues. Because on a hill, breezes flow through the house, and you can open the double doors leading to the balcony and sit out there and watch the birds, the port and the vistas (including Martinique in the distance when it is clear). Master bedroom is air-conditioned - just close the blinds and all doors leading out of the room if going to use.
Good and prompt communication with owners and property manager via Whats App. Detailed directions on finding house (if coming up the hill from Castries, Old Military Road drops sharply to the left of the road sign). They identified a glitch with the WiFi before I knew of it; it was promptly addressed and no further issues. (Cleaner accidentally unplugged power strip from 220/110 converter).
Minutes from Castries and a nearby grocery by car. Walked to La Toc beach (10 minute walk via the Sandals road that is just across the street from the driveway). Well stocked with games for families and adults.
Kitchen is very well equipped, including microwave. We cooked most meals; you'll need to bring everything except salt and pepper.
If you're noise sensitive, you will hear the planes and helicopter from the airport on the other side of the port, but it is not a busy airport (approx. 12 incoming and 12 outgoing commercial flights (propeller) per day in June.
We would happily return.
