St. Lucia Estuary as a hub offers various types of accommodation establishments. Since St. Lucia is developed with nature conservation as its main objective, no development took place in the sensitive coastal zone. For many years development where kept below the tree line, this not only added to the sense of place, but also kept the light source below the sky line and this had a low impact on breeding sea turtles and migrating mammals.
For the fisher men and their families self catering accommodation has always been an option, yet with the growing demand in foreign tourist with the same family needs, many of these establishments have upgraded and offer a variety off in house luxuries. This may range from bathrooms en suite to Satellite TV and air-conditioning.
Bed and Breakfast establishments literally popped up like mushrooms since the influx of foreign tourist reached an all time high in 1999. These establishments are more for the market who need extra luxuries like in house laundry, dry towels on demand and breakfast served. Instant local information and the sense of security that some one cares.
Lodges offer extra luxuries and comforts. Dining rooms and entertainment areas. Well serviced rooms and gourmet meals. Large garden areas with the added sense of security and some one who can see to all your needs.
