Property Description
Villa Piton is now CERTIFIED TO HOST as per St Lucia Ministry of Tourism. Listed as private villa #68 ( Villa Piton) at stlucia.org. Villa Piton is an uncommonly beautiful private Caribbean vacation residence, built by the legendary American architect John DiPol to perfectly reflect the splendor, serenity, and tradition of the tropical paradise and culture surrounding it. Located between the majestic Pitons, which are designated a UNESCO World Heritage site, the villa creates enduring memories of the perfect vacation.
It is certain, this is a place unrivaled. We owe tribute for the architecture to the American designer, John DiPol, who built the Villa Piton as his masterpiece and private residence. Employing DiPol’s trademark “open air”-concept, the home is the spirit of DiPol incarnate, expressing its rich surroundings by fusing the lush natural landscape with native St. Lucian materials and furniture to engender a space without bounds.
From the first moment you set eyes on the Villa Piton, your soul will find serenity. The open tranquility of the villa resounds in its nuances and design, as the natural St. Lucian granite and cedar woodwork rise gently from its space high upon the ridge between St. Lucia’s most celebrated Pitons, as if nature had intended it.
Beyond the breathtaking waterfront surroundings, unparalleled view, and plethora of amazing local attractions, your villa stay features an amazing array of standard amenities, accommodations, and features. In addition, our professional and friendly villa staff can help you to tailor your ultimate dream vacation experience, including home-cooked, traditional gourmet Creole meals, special event planning assistance, and a wealth of other concierge services.About pets:No pets allowed.About checkOut:Check out before 10:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 3-17.Swimming pool is 8" from Living room!.About customRules:Cooking fee $30/person/breakfast lunch or dinner only no cash.Pay with Credit Card Square reader at Villa.

Unreal! Amazing! Postcard views!
The trip was amazing! It brought me and my partner a lot closer to one another! Our first night there the power went out but I can’t even complain because we lit candles and played drinking games in the dark. The next day the staff helped us get it back on. Miss Mary was great and she cooked us an authentic dish and was very helpful. Words cannot describe this trip you just have to experience it. My advice is to bring plenty of bug spray lol. Our driver Tender was great! Actually the best! He took us to Victoria to party with the locals and we had a really great time eating the street food and listening to music! Tender (our driver) made the trip very very enjoyable!! We love Tender haha. The property and the views are amazing! Oh yea make sure you bring converters for the sockets because the plug ins are different so we were all using one phone charger. I took some amazing photos and videos. I have a drone video of us on the property and it looks like some out of a movie. I love the property and I will be back soon! I wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else!! Thank you so much!! I give it a 10/10

The Villa had stunning views. The drive there is a challenging. Great communication from Kermit. The staff was very responsive and helpful.

Holiday Vaca
The view is indeed unbeatable! Contrary to the last post, I had no trouble communicating with the owner/host prior to our visit and found him very responsive. For those interested in having Mary cook, I can attest her cooking is fantastic. The only surprise was that the cost of the food is not included in the $40/per person cost so just be prepared to pay $50-60/per person for the meal depending on what you have. By comparison whole family loved Martha’s Table about 20 minutes away and our family of 6 ate there one day for about $20/per person. Hotel Chocolate and The Mango Tree were pretty comparable in cost to what Mary charged (also highly recommended) if you are interested in a night out at a fancy restaurant.

Somewhere over the Rainbow
Amazing! Fantastic! Best vacation home and location we have stayed at, coming from vacation homeowners. This property is remote in an amazing architectural masterpiece tucked into the rain forest with a commanding view of the Caribbean Sea and the Pitons. Our drive through a "chocolate and banana rain forest daily left us in awe. The local population are some of the nicest people we have met, the local cuisine is worldclass quality yet simple. This property is a getaway not a resort.

Incredible view, Super cool house
One of the top three views of any place I have ever visited. Right up there with the entry into Yosemite and the view over the caldera of Santorini. The house is set up perfectly to enjoy the view.
Mary and TJ were great. Very helpful and made us feel at home. Definitely ask Mary to make dinner for you.
As with most Caribbean nations, the roads can be a bit trying, so get a four wheel drive and you’ll be fine.

Great Family Friends Trip!!
We had 2 families with kids. We stayed for 3 nights. The views are incredible!! Very private. And lots of breeze to keep cool. Some of us got a bit eaten by bugs at night, but all the beds have bug nets, bug spray was provided, and some of us were totally fine and didn’t get any. Overall not a huge deal. The staff did a grocery shop for us for some staple groceries for our first day. And Mary, the housekeeper, cooked us dinner our first night!! It was incredible!!! Highly recommend having her cook a dinner! Would LOVE to go back!!!

Amazing House and View!
It’s hard to put into words the majesty of this property. It sits right next to Gross Piton and has an incredible view overlooking Sugar Beach. St. Lucia is a very rustic country similar to St. John, USVI. Mary and her family cooked a traditional local dinner for us one night and it was fabulous. Be careful traveling in the towns and stay in very visible areas. Or just stay on this amazing property. Best view of any property that I’ve ever stayed. Constant rainbows over sugar beach. So qmazing!

Best view in all of St Lucia!
Hands down, the best view in the entire country! Everything about the house is amazing and I would absolutely stay there again. Greg cleans the pool each morning and he was very kind and helpful in getting us what we needed. In terms of in-country staff and support, Greg was the highlight!We did have two issues during out stay.1.The directions we were given to the property did not reflect recent changes to landmarks and the closure of a primary road leading to the property. Google maps did not offer an alternate route to the property. We called the in-country contacts provided however none answered our call. This was quite stressful as night was approaching, and we were at a loss for what to do. Luckily a kind local woman was able to get in touch with one of the contacts and once he was engaged, he responded promptly. The property owner was also relatively quick to respond and help. 2.During our 6-night stay, housekeeping was only provided once therefore we had to actively pursue getting things like trash bags, paper towels, clean towels, etc. I would offer three key recommendations for your stay.1.Rent a car. This is a must have considering how far out the property is from town and activities.2.Only buy groceries at a Massy Grocery store.3.Bring power strips (with the correct adapters) if you have lots of devices needing chargeOverall, we were very pleased with the experience and while there was a couple hiccups, the positives far outweighed the drawbacks!

A tropical artistic expression nestled between two mountains
This place doesn’t even seem real. The pictures, even the video we found on YouTube, didn’t come close to what we experienced. This place gives you the kind of experience you can’t even understand until you’ve lived it. Immediately after walking in and seeing the view, my family and I were in love. This house is not just a house, but a work of art worthy of being in a museum. We could feel the creator who designed this truly loved house and placed it in a perfectly picturesque corner of this beautiful island. Both pitons are visible, one to each side, when you walk through the open air space from the front door to the back with palm trees swaying in front of the sun setting over the ocean. Everyday you wake up to a beautiful sunrise that makes you wonder if it’s real. Goats and geckos constantly asserting a peaceful chill to our experience. Overall this stay was the most breathtaking experience my family and I have ever seen. The staff are wonderful and kind. Expect an amazing trip if you decide to book here. The road to this paradise can be tattered and torn. But the treasure that this magical abode offers is beyond worth it. Worth the time, the money, the effort…. This isn’t a building. This is art installed at the grass of paradise.
