About this property

Spectacular Villa situated in a Tropical Garden with Panoramic Ocean View/Breeze


Our reviews say it all, this villa is just like home in a Caribbean surrounding!

Coco View Villa is conveniently located in a country hillside setting surrounded by lush plantations. Organic fruit and vegetables in garden! Save on groceries! The view truly is spectacular; we've been told numerous times that it's one of the most incredible on the island.

This scenic villa is abundant in flora and fauna and you can just sit on the deck and enjoy the beauty all day and all night long! The sunrises and full moons are incredible as they shine across the ocean. The breezes are fabulous and wonderful to have in the Caribbean heat! The villa faces the south east which provide great natural breeze and perfect temperatures in the afternoon! Direct Caribbean afternoon sun can be stifling. This villa has the ultimate Caribbean exposure!

Each deck is private and has over 300 sq ft of outdoor space and the villa is situated on a half acre of beautiful palms, flowers, and fruit and vegetables for your dining pleasure! In the season, we can also arrange for crab and lobster to be brought to you! Chef available upon request. Fine West Indian Caribbean cuisine. All types of cuisine available as well.

Coco View Villa is situated on a lush hillside overlooking both the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea. The villa has one king bedroom suite available. The 1/2 acre property has fruit trees and a number of garden vegetables for your dining pleasure! It's an eco friendly environment that is located close to the International airport and beaches of white sand that are famous for kite and wind surfing! All amenities available within 10 minute drive. There is great local dining as well.
Coconut Suite: 1 bdrm, king with full kitchen and 300 sq ft of deck.

The unit is completely furnished with modern high quality furnishing and is completely private.

Guests have laundry access, amazing wifi, cable and all the amenities of home!

The gardens include a variety of fruits and vegetable of which some are available year round, others seasonal: pineapple, banana (8 varieties), mango, coconut, apple (golden & love), orange, lime, lemon, grapefruit, passion fruit, avocado, sugar cane, onions, lettuce, tomato, potato (white & sweet), eggplant, Caribbean ground provisions (tania, dashene & breadfruit). Flora includes Palm trees (Traveller, Saw Palmeto, Christmas, Coconut), Bird of Paradise, Allamanda, Ixora, Firecracker, Hibiscus, and Bougainvillea. Our local farmers quite often deliver what isn’t available in the garden to the villa. Or you can take a walk and go pick them yourselves! The hillside and villa are a Garden of Eden! Albeit predominantly seasonal, always some available!

The neighborhood is quiet and friendly. There are 4 fresh water springs on the hillside and two of them are used in bottling Bamboo Springs water. It's a small plant hidden in a banana farm higher up the hillside. Morning walking tours can be arranged, 5 kms in the countryside area with challenging hills (if desired).

All of our guests seem to have truly enjoyed their stay with us and we hope you decide to visit us as well!

We are currently offering amazing local cuisine, ranging from 3-5 star, your choice.

Welcome to Coco View Villa!

Amazing property in a perfect location

We really enjoyed our stay at Coco view villa in the hills near Vieux Fort. The property is just a short drive from the airport and the beautiful beaches. The views from the property are stunning. Huge thanks to our host Ken for making our vacation so special (Ken’s wife Dianne was away during our stay so we didn’t get to meet her but we did chat on the phone). Ken and Dianne have created something really special and we do not hesitate in recommending this property to others who want to experience the real Saint Lucia. We are already planning our next visit.

Pictures don't do it justice

Don't miss out on seeing the South and all the amazing things it has to offer. We asked for Diane to feed us for a few meals. She fed us so well with fresh produce and local foods. Don't consider staying anywhere but Coco View! It was magical, like a treehouse. We were on the top floor which had the best views of our whole trip. Ken and Diane make this place what it is. They have built the most amazing home and have the most beautiful grounds and garden. They helped us put together fun itineraries to see the whole island...and went above and beyond to make this the trip of a lifetime. If you are looking at staying here....don't think twice! Just so it!

Coco View villa - amazing view and amazing people

We stayed at the villa for 12 days and enjoyed our stay very much. Our host Ken was outstanding with all that he did. We have traveled a lot but never experienced such hospitality. Ken was not only helpful, caring and responding to our needs/requests, but he become our friend and we felt as a part of the family there. The view from the villa is outstanding - you can see ocean and enjoy beautiful sunrise. The description of the villa match what is indicated on the vrbo website. There is a lot to see and enjoy in St. Lucia, but for us the most outstanding was close community ties in Pierrot (location of the villa) and the fact that they embrace you as their own. Thank you Ken and Diane

Beautiful Sunrise

This is a great place and a beautiful home. The host Ken was awesome and showed us around the community where we enjoyed the local people and food. The sunrises at this home are spectacular and it was nice and clean with a great kitchen to cook in. Ken and Diane have the best dogs and they were very friendly and well behaved. Word of warning tho, the whole neighborhood has dogs and a few of the neighbors dogs bark all night. If this is not something you are used to it could make for a sleepless night unless you have earplugs.

A beautiful place. The house would be exceptional anywhere but happens to be situated on a lush mountainside very near incredible beaches. Ken is the kind of person who truly enjoys and excels at being a host and will make you feel at home. Could not imagine a better spot for a trip to St. Lucia for those with a bit of adventurous spirit.

Superb hosts

The property is located away from the main tourist areas of the north and is set on a hillside amongst tropical surroundings. The terrace had stunning views of the Atlantic and the local people were lovely. The owners Diane and Ken were superb hosts, providing a lovely welcoming rum punch on arrival. Their gardens produced a bountiful supply of fruits which we could help ourselves to. They have a wonderful knowledge of the island and are happy to help with ideas and directions to get the most from your stay. They are currently working on landscaping the gardens which will provide easy access to enjoy the gardens and pool. The accommodation was clean, tidy, and very comfortable with everything you need for a home from home experience. A thank you also to Karen and Ish who manage the property when Ken and Diane are away, it was also a pleasure to meet you both and thank you for arranging a special viewing of Mamiku Gardens. We will definitely return to our new friends sometime soon hopefully.

Amazing hospitality and views

We stayed here for a couple of nights, but we would have stayed longer if we know how great it was before making our travel plans. The villa is very close to the airport, with spectacular views of the ocean and with a lush garden where you can find any tropical fruit you can think of. Diane, the owner was great communicating with and making the arrangements. Karen and Ish were amazing hosts that turned into great friends. Aside from the delicious meals they cooked, they let our kids hang out where they were staying and also their nephews were visiting so our kids had a blast with their nephews. Also we appreciated the "local" advice towards sight seeing and dining. Thanks for a wonderful time!

A tranquil and lovely setting for a perfect St. Lucia vacation

The view from the balcony was simply stunning! The first word that came out of my mouth upon arrival was "WOW"! The villa has everything you need for a relaxing vacation. We stayed at the lower level Palm Suite, with 2 bedrooms, a living room, and a well-equipped kitchen. I made breakfast everyday and barbecued one night. The owner Diane and Ken are sweet fellow Canadians. Diane was always responsive to emails and we communicated numerous times before our departure. She also checked in with us many times during our stay. The property manager Kimberly is equally friendly and helpful. They were all very accommodating and tried their very best to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We were here to celebrate a birthday and I asked Diane to help with ordering a cake - ended up with Kimberly's personal baking! They are just super nice people. They have maintained a very nice garden with fruits and vegetables that guests are welcomed to enjoy. Diane made sure we had fresh coconut water so she had their gardener made us a huge jug. They were delicious with the fresh lime from the garden. We were eyeing the pineapples but too bad they weren't quite ripen yet. I did manage to use the spinach for our breakfast omelettes. The villa is about 15 minutes from Vieux Fort, 20 minutes from Laborie and 50 minutes from Soufriere. We have rented an small SUV. There are a few nice restaurants in the areas; not fancy "5-stars" eating places but they have the local vibes and the food were delicious. Definitely enjoyed going to "Mamma Tilly" - she cooked from her heart! Those breadfruit balls were so tasty! A "must-go" if you are staying here. We went there twice! There is a Massy Store (grocery) in Vieux Fort and it's adequately stocked. Ken and Diane are avid "sailors" and we went on their boat for a private sailing day-tour. Despite being sea-sick it was an awesome trip. They were so attentive to our needs. We were taken to this private beach and had a picnic lunch there. Diane prepared snacks and a delicious lunch including rice, vegetables, pasta salad and fish. We enjoyed this experience very much. They have all the snorkeling gears for us to use. This is not your "typical" vacation rental. It is more like a home away from home and it's run by people who truly care. It's tranquil and it offered us a haven to catch some much-needed rest. It's more than what we've hoped for and thank you!

Stunning views and top notch accommodations!

Ken and Diane’s rental villa was fabulous. Outstanding views from a large patio/deck where you can eat or just relax. The rental was very clean and nicely decorated. Bedrooms very nice size with comfortable beds. Ken and Diane were gracious hosts, showing us local places to eat and visit. You will not be dissappointed with your stay here.

A really relaxing stay in lovely surroundings

We really enjoyed relaxing at CocoView on the large terrace with amazing views. We were well looked after by Diane, Charles and Kimberley and certainly go back as soon as time permits. Enjoyed shopping for locally caught fish and the local vegetable market and picking the juiciest limes in the garden.

Gorgeous view in a unique location

We stayed at the villa for 4 nights in early February 2018. Communication was easy and quick from our initial contact onward. It was an amazing experience and we'd highly recommend it! We were super comfortable--everything was clean, kitchen was well-appointed, and upon our arrival we were warmly welcomed and offered beautiful fresh fruit and coconut water from the gardens on the property. What really made our stay exceptional--aside from the stunning view and the pleasant space--was how at home we felt. Kim, who's helping manage the property this year, was absolutely lovely, incredibly helpful with directions and tips for local attractions, restaurants, and more. She helped make our visit a truly exceptional one, and we're so glad to have had her there, she's a great asset! Villa is an easy drive from the airport, Vieux Fort, and the beach, and about an hour + to Castries and the north. We found plenty to do in the area but did make a day trip to Rodney Bay--worth doing, but it made us appreciate the peaceful setting of the villa and the less touristy Atlantic side of the island a whole lot more! If you're going to St. Lucia, this place is definitely worth visiting--real hospitality in a stunning location!

True Local Vibe Caribbean Stay

I couldn't agree more with the previous two reviews. The house & gardens are spectacular and meticulously maintained! The house had everything we needed to feel comfortable and cook fresh meals. Wade & Theresa were so kind and accommodating as well as informative. They were terrific with my 8 year old daughter, and a wealth of knowledge for local spots to check out and tips to travel about the southern part of the island. We were also encouraged to help ourselves to the terrific fruits and vegetables the garden offered. The view simply can not be captured in a photo, its breathtaking. We wish we had booked two weeks if only for the pleasure of having coffee in the sun on the expansive deck the Coco View Villa has. We rented an SUV (recommended) and drove to Sandy Beach everyday (5 minutes) it was beautiful and quiet. We were sure to schedule a day on Ken & Diane's boat and it was the highlight of our trip! They are great hosts, knowledgeable and fun! Sailed down the west coast, snorkeled and enjoyed a fabulous lunch of lobster, conch & more! Sailing back we were able to lend a hand in catching a huge beautiful red snapper they cooked up for dinner right there at sunset....perfect heavenly day! We (including my daughter) can't wait to book again and spend more time with these awesome folks! We especially loved the location of the villa, we often vacation away from tourist areas for the experience of local flare, we got exactly that! Thank you, Thank you!!!

Amazing View and Hospitality

My lady and I had a great experience at the Coco View Villa and with Ken and Diane on their sailboat. We spent the entire day on the water snorkeling, eating great fresh seafood and fruit as well as enjoyed the local beverages: Rum Punch and Peton Lager. Wade and Theresa were excellent hosts of the villa and were very willing to help us with places to see and where to get fresh fish and lobster right off the boats! We rented the top floor which had an awesome view of the ocean, we really didn't want to leave since we had seen most of the Island the week prior. The only regret is that we didn't book a longer stay there! Highly Recommend this place if you are looking for some R&R with a view.

BEST VACATION IN OUR MANY YEARS OF TRAVEL

We stayed at Coco view villa jan. 24 to feb. 3 its a spectacular place with views of the coast and the towns below. Ken and Diane were great hosts on our catamaran sail down the coast they provided a beautiful lunch in front of the Pitons The managers at the villa are Wade and Theresa you would be hard pressed to meet two nicer people. They attended our every need teaching us the local culture taking us to a local Lician farm and explaining the gardens at the villa. We cannot say enough about there hospitality. The villa is all you will need for a wonderful time.
