Why Choose St Lucia Or The Cap Maison Hotel?

All around the world, summer holiday destinations flatter to deceive; thats not the case on the Caribbean Island of St

. Lucia or at the Cap Maison Hotel.

St. Lucia - the authentic Caribbean

You may well have experienced some holiday destinations where local culture is hard to find. They may have become hopelessly international and have lost any vestiges of their original charm. The island of St. Lucia is different. Here you will find an authentic Caribbean culture that is an intriguing mlange of British, French, African and original Carib. Nowhere is this better illustrated than in the local language, where you will find English used in all formal situations, but the majority of the local people speak a French patois in their homes.

Even in the countryside, this authenticity is visible. St Lucia is one of the few islands in the region that retains significant elements of its original tropical rainforest. This can be explored along prepared paths designed to allow you to experience the jungle without putting its precious ecosystem at risk.

St Lucia the traditional Caribbean

Of course, holidaymakers visit this magical island for many different reasons. It may be that you are simply interested in relaxing and unwinding and, if so, you wont be short of opportunities to do so here.

Even people on some of the other Caribbean islands might be inclined to agree that St. Lucia has some of the best beaches around. The waters surrounding the island are crystal clear and ideal for things such as diving, snorkelling and simply splashing about and having fun.

Through its network of exclusive sporting and accommodation facilities, such as the Cap Maison Hotel, St. Lucia offers visitors the opportunity to engage in things such as horse riding, golf, hiking, parascending and boating. Sightseeing is also plentiful, given the ancient history of this island and the sites and locations left behind by the French, British and African people that eventually settled here. Try visiting the town and surroundings of Soufrire with its history and drive-through volcano or Fort Rodney and the capital of Castries.

Some visitors look for luxury accommodation and superb natural surroundings but also other things to do to occupy their time in situations where they simply seek a change from the beach. If that sounds like you, then this might be the island that will meet your requirements.

St. Lucia the discerning destination

If you are seeking luxury and something that is a little different from the normal run of the mill Caribbean destination, this island might provide exactly that. Although it is a popular stopping-off spot for cruise ships, the islanders have never set their objective to be the accommodation of mass-tourism. It is possible here to find quiet tranquillity and hotels of the highest standard.

The Cap Maison Hotel is one such but there are also others. You certainly will not be short of choice in terms of finding the very best standards of accommodation in the region.
