    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    The views from the Bel Jou Hotel are on the money. From its hillside setting, you can lap up the sprawling coastline and countryside.

    This adults-only place is plonked on the outskirts of Castries, St Lucia's bustling capital. It's only a couple of minutes' drive to swap hotel digs for the harbour scene, and there are a couple of top-drawer beaches the same distance away.

    Island life's all this place knows, so you can mosey around tropical gardens, plough into Caribbean cuisine and loosen up at pilates classes. A couple of pools fringed by Bali beds and rattan sofas cap things off.

    60th birthday paradise

    Three of us visited the Bel joy for my 60th birthday. We had a lovely holiday. The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. I would highly recommend this hotel. The only thing I would say is the travel guide advised me that there was a bar on the beach belonging to the hotel bit there was not.
    25th Aniversary getaway

    My Wife and I chose this hotel and St Lucia for out 25th Anniversary and could not have chosen better. We travelled with another couple and had a garden bungalow. The accommodation was functional, very clean and well proportioned. Really only slept and changed in the room, the rest of the time was either exploring this spectacular island or relaxing around one of the two pools. The staff could not have made us more welcome, they became friends not really staff!! Nothing was too much trouble for them and they genuinely wanted you to enjoy yourselves. From Brandon, Glen and Lyndon operating the bars, to Jaffrey organising the sports activities and aqua aerobics, themed BBQ night (Awesome) Bianca and her every energetic enthusiasm around the various evening entertainment. The hotel spa was great and used that twice whilst we were there. I mean, every sing member of staff were brilliant, even the very happy grounds people and any other staff member, they all make a fantastic difference. The food was amazing, huge choice, morning noon and night still trying to burn off all those additional calories. :-) Having never been to the Caribbean, we could not have asked for a better first time trip. The Hotel is currently having some building work done which I'm sure will just enhance what is already an awesome hotel. Great, Great Great!! Thank You Bel Jou, do what you do best, and to Dean the hotel Manager, well done and keep them happy! Your staff are your biggest asset!
    Lovely hotel with brilliant staff

    My wife and I booked a 2 week holiday at Bel Jou and on arrival we were made very welcome and shown to our room which had a balcony giving views over Castries to the sea. The room was comfortable and clean and the bathroom had a walk in shower. There was a good choice of food from the buffet restaurant and house wines (with endless refills) were included. The drinks selection was also reasonable The hotel has 2 pools- our favourite was sited in the lovely gardens and had a self service bar!. The hotel is built on a hillside above the town but there is a complementary shuttle bus service into Castries and to Vigie beach. Thursday was barbecue night - the 2 we attended were excellent - great food a selection of local entertainment all rounded off with a good disco. The hotel closed for a refit on our last day and we were concerned that the service would deteriorate but there was no problem at all. As the clientele shrank, the management decided to substitute the buffet with a la carte dining. Some reviewers have complained about this but where is the problem in being offered a la carte for the same price! On our last night we were the only guests in the hotel and at dinner, we found that 3 of the staff had arranged to dine with us - a really nice touch!! On the last day the staff were having a closing party but they still came to check that we were OK. We joined them for lunch and a game of cricket before being sent off like royalty. Enjoyed every minute - fabulous!!
    Cannot fault the hotel or the amazing staff

    We visited Bel Jou in early June 2019. We were a group of 15 staying in St Lucia prior to attending a family wedding. We cannot praise the hotel highly enough and we will definitely be returning. It spoke volumes that most of the guests were returning visitors, who had clearly experienced the amazing staff and lovely atmosphere of the hotel before. It was an outstanding and very relaxing experience. We very much enjoyed all the food, some of our group said the gym was excellent and the entertainment was superb. No complaints at all and no single outstanding member of staff - they were ALL amazing. See you again as soon as we possibly can!
    Lovely staff, peaceful holiday, very relaxing, but lots of steps!

    Do not really need to repeat all the positive comments made previously - we found them all to be true - the hotel was quiet as it was heading toward refurbishment closure, but staff maintained a friendly, helpful service and we had a great holiday. Do find out what day the steel band from the local special school will be playing at lunchtime (I think they visit fortnightly) as they are well worth supporting. We had seen them on a previous holiday, and the dedication and concentration is inspirational. Only one reservation - if you have mobility or breathing problems this might not be the hotel for your as it is impossible to avoid the numerous steps.
