"A family‑owned boutique property, Cap Maison Resort & Spa feels private and secluded despite being close to livelier parts of the island; newly inducted into Relais & Châteaux, it offers several foodie‑favorite dining experiences overseen by award‑winning executive chef Craig Jones." - Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila is a bilingual travel writer, editor, and content marketer.

"Set on former plantation grounds amid lush jungle and dramatic coastal views, this intimate St. Lucia property fuses old-world elegance with modern luxury—many villas offer private pools, whirlpools, or rooftop terraces for privacy and panoramic ocean vistas. Beach access requires descending a staircase, but the resort compensates with two pools, tailored wellness options (including on‑terrace massages), and inclusive packages that bundle meals and select beverages for a seamless, indulgent stay." - Meagan Drillinger Meagan Drillinger Meagan Drillinger left New York City for a life on the road.

"At the northern tip of St. Lucia, on what used to be the sugar plantation, Cap Maison sits clifftop like a small orderly village. This cluster of three-story white buildings has a Spanish (via Caribbean) colonial architectural motif with its characteristic Moorish inflections, painted tiles, and dark wood. The 49 rooms are kitted out with local paintings and richly upholstered furniture (including an oversized chaise longue at the foot of the bed), balconies, louvered shutters, ceiling fans, A/C, iPod docks, and Bose speakers, as well as lovely bathrooms with painted ceramic sinks. Some suites come with a private plunge pool but, should you prefer company, there is a small cliff-edge cascading pool as well as a larger one surrounded by chaises. At the bottom of a long staircase down to the sea is a small protected beach for swimming and snorkeling." - CNT Editors

Resort guests also have access to a shiny motor yacht for sunset cruises and day-trips (lunch in Martinique, anyone?). The exceptional restaurant, which overlooks the water, expertly prepares dishes like mahimahi with a garlic brown butter and dark greens. Staff are friendly and solicitous and will arrange meals in your suite or a car and driver, generally catering to your every whim."
