There are awards a property chases, and there are awards that are simply handed by the people who matter most, its guests. The Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice 2025 award is the second kind. It is decided entirely by traveler reviews, recognizing accommodations that rank among the top 10% of listings worldwide. For our family-owned, St. Lucian estate, this recognition is especially meaningful because it reflects the genuine experiences of those who have chosen to stay with us.
Why Guests Love Fond Doux
Nestled on a historic cocoa estate near Soufrière and the Pitons, Fond Doux offers a slower, more authentic side of St. Lucia. Guests stay in charming cottages surrounded by rainforest, enjoy fresh St. Lucian cuisine, explore he property through our Chocolate Heritage Tour, and experience the warm hospitality of our local team.
Many reviews mention the peaceful atmosphere, lush gardens, and personal service that make the estate feel less like a resort and more like a place to truly unwind.
A Sustainable Getaway
Part of what guests write about is how gently the estate treats the land it sits on. Fond Doux runs on solar power and rainwater harvesting, grows food in its own organic gardens, plants trees with guests, and works to cut single use plastic. Choosing to stay here is easy on St. Lucia, and that matters to the travelers who pick us.
