​Hey Ya’ll!! My boyfriend and I had an awesome start to our week in St. Lucia here @ Janus’s Sapphire Apartment. From the messages and tips, pre-arrival and along the way. 

Janus couldn’t have been a better host. When we arrived in the airport we followed Janus’s advice and stopped at Massys (grovery store) which is super close to UVF and got steak & chicken, meat, rice and veggies and of course some Piton beer to have for our first night. Driving here in out rental (Chevy, tiny car) made the drive here such an adventure! After a few stops for pictures at the lookout spots as you come down to Soufriere, we met Janus and got up to the apt. right at Sunset. 

We soaked in the view, settled in and made ourselves at home. The next morning we woke up early a head to hike Gros Piton – wow! We love hiking, and that experience right there is at the top of our chart (ask for Chad if you go!) When we finish we went to Sugar Beach for lunch & Sunbath & Swimming. Came back to the apt, showered and then walked down to the water and grabbed a drink @ Pitit Peak to watch the sun set. 

We then walked to Orlando’s and had a lovely dinner there! We’re heading North tomorrow morning to do an ATV tour and stay at the St. Lucian by rex resort for New Year’s Eve! We will be checking out some of the other amazing suggestions listed in this book over the cost of our stay. All we know is that we’re already talking about how we can live there one day. 

Enjoy all this magical Island has to offer. 

Thanks again Janus!

All the best!
Elizabeth & Austin
