As guests of C’est la Vie Villa, you’ll have a butler on hand to help with anything you need, such as snorkeling equipment for the villa’s secluded cove; or if you’d prefer to top up your tan on the beach, there’s a quiet, golden sand shore about five minutes walk away on the other side of the peninsula.

There are many reasons for guests to love this St Lucia vacation rental, which is the dream base for a memorable holiday.
