Welcome to C'est La Vie, a lovely 5 bedroom villa with private pool and walking distance to a pristine stretch of sandy beach. This luxury vacation rental is located on the Trouya Pointe peninsula between Castries and Rodney Bay in the North of St Lucia. C'est la Vie has been planned so that you can live your vacation on a whim. The five bedrooms are divided between three properties located within lovely mature tropical gardens.
A short pathway leads from C'est la Vie to a tranquil, secluded Couti Cove Beach from which snorkelers may search for reef fish or lobster and strong swimmers may circumnavigate the peninsula and find themselves in another quiet cove with a beautiful sandy beach. This is the site of a future cluster of Luxury Villas being built by the Owners of C'est la Vie and it can also be reached on foot in about five minutes; either cove is ideal for a picnic or a barbeque.
C'est la Vie is situated close to the Windjammer Landing Hotel, between the city of Castries and the area of Rodney Bay with its restaurants, Marina and shops. It is close enough to be a part of the activities yet, due to its location, remains apart from and undisturbed by the bustle.
Rodney Bay is one of the most popular yachting destinations in the Caribbean. There is a beautifully landscaped Marina with restaurants, bars, shops and galleries. The Bay is worth visiting during the day to browse through the shops and enjoy a waterside lunch or at night when it becomes lively due to the many night time venues.
For the most part, St. Lucian beaches are relatively short, but with five miles of white sand on Rodney Bay, Reduit is the place for a long stroll by the shore and a swim in calm waters. One of the most popular beaches on the island, it is fronted by the Rex St Lucian Papillon and the Royal St Lucian hotels.
Castries the Capital of St Lucia is a small bustling city of pretty gingerbread houses that hug the hillsides surrounding the shops and busy harbour. Castries has suffered four major floods over the last 200 years but this has enabled the city to be rebuilt on a grid making it easy to explore. The colourful market on Peynier Street has interesting local produce such as arts, crafts, herbs and spices. The Catholic Church in Castries is worth a visit. It contains many paintings of biblical scenes where all the characters are black.
A completely relaxing environment has been created to provide you with complete freedom to choose...what to do, where to go, when to eat...we provide the options but it's your choice.
Designed in traditional Caribbean style with some Balinese influence, this luxury St Lucia Vacation rental offers a free flowing layout allowing comfort and privacy amidst carefully landscaped tropical gardens, abundant with fruit, where often the only sound is birdsong or the lapping of waves on the nearby shore.
THE ACCOMMODATION
The bedrooms at C'est La Vie are divided between three properties. The main villa houses 3 of the bedrooms and The Cottage and The Apartment have one bedroom in each.
The five bedrooms of this lovely St Lucia Villa rental exude an authentic Caribbean ambience with natural breezes combining with ceiling fans to comfort and nurture you whilst air conditioning is available if required.
Each room is named after a nearby tree and the Julie Mango veranda is slightly reduced in width in order to accommodate the spreading branches.
The rooms are spacious with an abundance of closet space. Flat panel televisions are provided and DVDs may be borrowed from our collection or rented from the nearby library.
