As a Green Globe–certified resort, we depend on our surrounding forest to provide clean water, fresh air, thriving habitats, and the natural beauty that defines Fond Doux. Our Tree Planting program invites guests to take part in this stewardship by planting a young tree anywhere within the resort’s gardens. We’ll label it with your name, creating a living reminder of your time with us. This complimentary activity is a meaningful way to give back to the land we all enjoy and to leave a positive impact that will continue to grow long after your stay.
ON-SITE ACTIVITIES
At Fond Doux Eco Resort, unforgettable experiences begin right on the estate. We believe that the magic of a St. Lucia vacation comes not only from eco-conscious accommodations and warm hospitality, but from meaningful moments you can see, taste, and explore. Whether you’re joining a hands-on chocolate-making tour, wandering through our historic cocoa plantation, setting off on a lush nature hike, or simply taking in the sights and sounds of the rainforest, adventure awaits just steps from your cottage.
ACTIVITIES
Pools
Our iconic triple cascading pool sits at the heart of the resort, offering three interconnected basins between 13 and 15 feet in diameter, each overlooking lush mountain scenery and vibrant tropical vegetation. Nearby you’ll find rainforest hardwood loungers, convenient bathrooms and showers, and even a charming poolside library with books and board games to enjoy throughout the day. If you’re craving a tropical drink or a light snack while you lounge, simply pick up the poolside telephone and place your order for delivery.
Just steps from the 5 Fingers Restaurant, our newest addition — a large infinity pool — provides a serene, elevated place to unwind. With sweeping views of the estate and a peaceful atmosphere perfect for a mid-day dip or sunset swim, the infinity pool offers a modern complement to the timeless charm of our cascading pools. Together, they create two distinct ways to relax and soak in the beauty of Fond Doux.
ACTIVITIES
Nature Trails
Three scenic nature trails wind through the resort, giving you the chance to explore the beauty of Fond Doux at your own pace. Wander past vibrant tropical flora, spot local wildlife, and take in sweeping views of the surrounding rainforest. Along the way, you’ll encounter historic ruins and landmarks that tell the stories, traditions, and folklore of this centuries-old plantation — turning every walk into a journey through both nature and history.
