Gros Islet, Saint Lucia, Saint Lucia
Boutique Beach Hotel
East Winds Inn, a boutique five-star all-inclusive retreat tucked into a secluded bay on St. Lucia's northwest coast, weaves Caribbean warmth with intimate charm, offering a soulful escape amid lush gardens and a pristine beach.
The 30 cottage-style suites, wrapped in plantation-style timber, glow with soft linens and vibrant tropical accents. Air-conditioned rooms feature king-sized beds, flat-screen TVs, coffee makers, safes, minibars, and private bathrooms with showers and premium toiletries. Private patios open to seafront or garden views, where frangipani scents drift on the breeze, crafting a cozy haven for couples.
A private beach, shaded by palapas, invites barefoot strolls, while an outdoor pool glimmers under swaying palms. Complimentary Wi-Fi keeps guests connected, whether lounging by the water or swaying in a hammock, watching local fishermen haul in their catch.
The Flamboyant Dining Room serves international and Caribbean cuisine, with breakfasts of fresh guava and warm pastries, and themed dinners featuring jerk-spiced fish or local lobster. The Bamboo Lounge hums with live calypso bands, while Sunset Bar crafts champagne cocktails against golden-hour vistas. Almond Deck offers post-dinner drinks under starlit skies, with beachside gazebos for romantic dining.
The open-air garden spa, nestled among tropical blooms, soothes with massages and plant-based treatments in two serene rooms. Weekly yoga and Pilates classes unfold in a breezy pavilion, while a small gym and fitness track keep energy flowing. Guided garden tours reveal exotic flora and birdlife, led by the head gardener.
Complimentary snorkeling, kayaking, and paddleboarding explore the bay's coral reefs, while Caribbean Divers arranges scuba adventures. Rum tastings, chocolate-making sessions, and Gros Islet's steel orchestra visits, curated by attentive staff, weave in St. Lucia's vibrant spirit.
Situated 7.8 km from Pigeon Island National Park and a 10-minute drive from George F. L. Charles Airport, East Winds Inn offers free parking and seamless access to St. Lucia's coastal and cultural gems. This intimate retreat balances relaxed comfort with the lively rhythm of the island's soul.
