Uptown Guest House

Spent 4 lovely days at Uptown (which is more commonly known as "Talk to Me" locally. Andrea and Michael were accommodating and warm hosts and two young women I met who they employ were lovely to talk with, and both enjoyed sharing information and tips with me about what to see in the area. The location is about 1.5 km from town, as one drives up the mountainside. The view from my room (two large wooden windows floor to ceiling) was absolutely stunning! All of Soufriere and Gros Piton to enjoy! The room I (for a very reasonable price through Expedia) had a shower (flick switch for hot water) and toilet and stove. The hosts invited me to use a fridge in their kitchen which I could access any time. This allowed me to have breakfast and coffee (yes! A coffee maker!) before heading out for the day and gave me a place to keep a couple Piton chilled :) Meals could be provided by the hosts but I didn't take advantage this trip - maybe next time. It always smelled very good! As a single female traveller I loved the sense of family and comfort here - there are only 8 rooms and before long everyone was familiar and my hosts were easily found if needed. A wonderful home away from home for the casual traveller who is seeking an experience of life in St Lucia and not a resort. Thank you Andrea and Michael! See You again I hope! The pictures include a view Of my lovely window opening over the city and Piton, a stunning view From the communal balcony and a picture inside the room (after I'd messed up the bed lol)
