Beach House Mirage

We stayed at the Mirage Beach Resort Feb 24th - 27th 2020 and had a fabulous time! The cottage is very rustic and somewhat dark inside but was a perfect fit for our group of 2 couples. The resort is perfectly located right on Laborie Beach and has a wonderful, private outdoor sitting area. Swimming is great in the shallows however the bottom turns from sandy to weeds / coral just over waist deep. A floaty will fix that issue no problem. The town with shops and restaurants is a 15min walk down the beach. We felt very safe and enjoyed soaking up the local culture. Everyone in town was very friendly and we felt very safe venturing into town during the day and evenings for dinner. Mamma Tilly's was a fun and authentic dinner out. If you plan to cook at the resort I suggest stopping for groceries at Massy's near the airport as opposed to shopping in Laborie as selection is quite limited and costs are much higher. Overall I would highly recommend the Mirage for those wanting to get out of the main tourist areas of Saint Lucia and experience more of the local culture, Lastly, the owner (Florence) was awesome. She was very accommodating when our arriving flight was delayed 3hrs waiting for us at the gate as we arrived. Thanks Florence for allowing us the pleasure to stay at your resort. Mike
