Luxury Soufrière Holidays

Holidays in Soufrière place you at the heart of St Lucia’s best natural attractions. The Pitons - two volcanic spires that rise into the sky – provide a staggering backdrop, along with the surrounding ocean and rainforest. Soufrière is a laid back town, making it the perfect base for a Caribbean holiday with your partner, family or by yourself.

Soufrière translates to “sulphur” in French, so it should come as no surprise to learn that the town is surrounded by mineral baths and hot springs. Head to Sulphur Spring, a beautiful area known for its springs, or visit the Diamond Botanical Gardens, where you’ll find exotic botanical gardens and cascading waterfalls. Those who enjoy keeping active should hire a bicycle and pedal the trails through the old sugar plantation at Anse Mamin.

It wouldn’t be a classic Caribbean getaway without the beach. We recommend the stunning Anse Chastanet Beach; it’s just 30 minutes away from the town and treats its visitors to views of vibrant green rainforest, white sands and turquoise waters. Anse Chastanet also offers fabulous snorkelling and scuba diving off its shores. Its coral reef is recognised as one of the best dive locations in the Caribbean.
