Can we make this hashtag go viral ? 😊 My husband and I almost booked Jade Mountain for our honeymoon…so glad we did not make that mistake! We especially enjoyed the chef, local restaurants…and the grapefruit juice! Thank you Jermal + Shane Boy for showing us a good time in St. Lucia. The team made this place feel like home. We will be back!

To Future Guests

This has been the most amazing vacation of our lives! Jermal is amazing and takes care of everything to  make our stay special.

Our first night my husband and I went to have dinner at Ladera. It had a spectacular view and the food was delicious. The next day we did the Jermal tour of Soufriere. We had breakfast mango tree and went off on the tour.It was one of my favorite days on the island. Jermal is also an amazing Photographer. The pictures at the mud baths and waterfall looked like it was taken by a professional. He also took us to eat lunch at a local restaurant “The Dream Bar” it is a must go if you want to experience local food. At night we went back to Mango tree for dinner.

On day 2, we decided to be brave and climb Gros Piton. It was tougher than we thought. I am still sore by the time im writing this. After that we had lunch and Piton here by the beach. At night we had chef Ramsey come and cook for us. The food was great and chef is a very upbeat guy. You cannot go wrong with him.

On day 3, we took it easy since we were so tire from the hike on the previous day. We went to the Botanical Gardens and it was beautiful! The waterfall takes your breath away. Also the mineral bath was pretty good for our Sore muscles. We went to the Paradise hotel beach after.

There is this boat juice bar and their Pina colada is a must! Beat Pina Colada ever!!! After a relaxing day at the beach and in the pool we went to eat dinner at Orlandos. Great food, great chef, great environment! 5 star!

This trip has been amazing! The house, the view, jermal, the food and beauty exceeded mine (and im sure everyone’s) expectations

We had a magical 5 day in Soufriere thanks to this beautiful island, the kind people and the breathtaking villa! Huge thank you to Janus for making our stay completely effortless and making us feel like VIP’s. Everything we wanted to do was easily arrange for us by Janus, Jermal or Shane who were so kind, patient and considerate.

Day 1:- we got in, in the afternoon. Shane took us to buy groceries on the way in (his recommendation) and Jermal brought us food from a local restaurant to the villa. We read and enjoyed the spectacular view on the Patio.

Day 2:- We hiked Gros Piton in the morning, after making a quick breakfast. Jermal took us to the right spot, handed us over to a guide who walked up with us. Definitely recommend the hike! It’s a well paved trail with beautiful views. It feels like walking up a long staircase. We did it in closer to 3 hours with some stops along the way. The Jermal took us to Malgretoute beach which is the only beach open to tourist because of COVID. It was really relaxing, food was good and water was super clear. We ended up going twice. The View of Pitit Piton is Beautiful while you swim.

Day 3:- We were sore! Janus took us to see some of his other incredible villas and we made brunch at home and swam in the pool. Later we went for a walk along the coast towards Jade Mountain and Chef Ramsey met us at home and cooked us a delicious meal! It was $$$ was absolutely delicious and felt like a private restaurant. Definitely the best food we’ve had on the island.

Day 4 :- we went diving with Chester off Hummingbird beach. Chester was amazing. The son of a fisherman who now plants coral and is a dive master. We saw coral we’ve never seen before and we have been to the great Bamia reef. We grabbed food at Blue Anchor and Orlandos (both delicious) and head home for a swim. We ate left over from Chef Ramsey and cooked dinner @ home.

Day 5:- We did the Tet Paul Nature trail. It was incredible to learn about the farming community that sustains and is sustained by the fruit and vegetables that grow there.

The Pineapples were adorable. The view between the Pitons is unbeatable. Don’t miss it! Then we went back to Malgretoute beach for our last swim and fish burgers.

There is also a little fruit boat where we got fresh coconuts. He has a blender on the boat to make cocktails. Jermal hooked us up with a dinner reservation at Ladera. They put us at the best seat with spectacular views and sunset. The food was delicious!

Staying with Janus is the way to go! Everything was taken care of and people treated us like royalty
Thank you Janus, Jermal & Shane
