Staying at Hotel Chocolat was a great way to immerse ourselves in the rainforest of St. Lucia. I'd recommend staying here for a few nights, as it is certainly worth it, but there isn't too much to do to fill out a longer stay. Room We stayed in a Luxe Lodge, which I highly recommend. The room was huge and had loungers that allowed you to enjoy the view of the Petit Piton and the resort's grounds. There is no air conditioning, and in the summer, it was still pretty warm at night. We eventually got a standing fan from the front desk, which helped a lot. Pool The pool was incredible. I remember thinking it was too small in the photos, but because the resort isn't that large, we never found it full. There was always plenty of space to swim and oftentimes we were the only ones there! This was a 10/10. Food The food was pretty pricey and was good. I don't think anything was too special, and I actually love chocolate! I just don't think the food was a showstopper except for the incredible pesto-style dip they served with the bread. I am still dreaming of that! Vibe This is a very relaxing place. It is quiet and there are even signs all around that say "Shhhh...Tranquility." So if you are looking to zen out, this is the place for you! Activities We took part in the tree to bean and bean to bar experience. They were both wonderful! We also had an incredible sunset yoga class that was free, which was a nice perk. Staff Everyone was great, but Gina stole the show. She was so fun and sweet to us. We loved getting to know her and seeing her everyday.
