Incredible Airbnbs in St. Lucia
Saint Lucia is renowned for its hotels and resorts. But these can break the bank, especially if you’re traveling with a larger group or need a separate workspace. So I’ve rounded up the best Airbnbs in St. Lucia for your trip to paradise.
The Ultimate St. Lucia Travel Guide
You’ll need to book your own tours and transportation, but this is a small trade-off for the luxury, space, and freedom an Airbnb gives you.
Here are the most incredible Airbnbs in St. Lucia!
Serrana Villa
Soufriere
4 guests2 bedrooms2 beds2 baths
If the view of the Pitons from almost every window doesn’t sell you on this home, then the plunge pool, high-speed internet, parking, and proximity to some of the island’s most popular attractions will. This property also makes it easy to hire a personal chef, chauffeur, tour guide, and grocery shopper during your stay.
Xhale
Cap Estate, Gros Islet
8 guests bedrooms beds baths
This villa is located in one of my favorite parts of Saint Lucia! You’re close to Pigeon Island (my favorite hiking spot) and The Naked Fisherman, one of the island’s best restaurants. The stunning Anse Galet Bay will be below you, and on clear days, you’ll be able to see Martinique.
Waterfront Condo

Villa Pierre

This villa is located in a more off-the-beaten-path part of the island, which means the nearby town and beaches are usually tourist-free. You’ll have unique views of the Pitons, and the open-air home is a perfect blend of luxury and rustic charm.

This spectacular villa is in the exclusive Anse Chastanet/Jade Mountain area of Soufriere. You’ll be surrounded by lush tropical gardens and stunning views of the Caribbean and Pitons. Each bedroom has its own patio, and the pool area is a tropical paradise.

How much does a trip to St Lucia cost?
The average daily costs for a trip to St. Lucia are:
Budget Trip: $165/day
Midrange: $275/day
High End: $600/day
What is the best time of year to go to St Lucia?
The best time to visit St. Lucia for the best weather is November to April. These Winter and early spring months have sunny days in the mid-70s and mid-80s.
The best time to visit St. Lucia on a budget is June – October, during the rainy season when crowds and prices are at their lowest.
How many days do you need in St Lucia?
A week is the perfect amount of time to spend in St. Lucia. This will give you plenty of time to explore the island, have beach days, and enjoy the luxury of your hotel, resort, or vacation home. I recommend flying in and out of St. Lucia on Sunday because traffic is at its lowest for airport transfers, and many restaurants, shops, and attractions are closed on Sundays.
What should I know about St Lucia?
1. The currency is the Eastern Caribbean dollar (EC$). Exchange rates are subject to fluctuations, so be sure to check this as your trip approaches. On average, EC$1 is equal to about £.28 British Pounds, $.37 U.S., €,31, and 2.45 Chinese Yuan.
2. Visa, American Express and MasterCard are widely accepted at hotels, car-rental agencies, shops, and restaurants. Most places will quote you in U.S. dollars, and you can pay in US$ or the equivalent of EC$.
3. ATMs are available at bank branches and shopping centers throughout the island to get Eastern Caribbean dollars. Most hotels and resorts can also exchange money for you.
4. Tap water is drinkable in Saint Lucia, so if you don’t want to pay for water at restaurants, you can ask for ‘regular’ water, which is cold tap water. You can also order still or sparkling water, which will come in a bottle for a fee.
5. Electrical outlets in St. Lucia are Type G. So if you’re from the U.K., you won’t need an outlet adaptor. But U.S., European, and other travelers will need an adaptor.
When should you not go to St Lucia?
St. Lucia’s rainy season is from June to November. During these months, there will be a chance of rain every day. The summer and fall is also hurricane season, which peaks in September and October. But the island rarely gets directly hit by a storm or hurricane, so you can score some budget accommodation and tour deals during these months.
Is St Lucia a safe place to visit?
I felt very safe during my entire trip to St. Lucia. The country has a low crime rate, but, as with any destination, you need to take precautions to keep yourself safe. Don’t walk by yourself at night, stay in a secure and well-located hotel or vacation home, use slash-proof, lockable, and RFID-protected bags and purses, and always have a charged cell phone with you.
Is food expensive in St. Lucia?
Street food is relatively cheap, between $2-4. Lunch at a local restaurant will be around $20. A two-course evening meal will start at $45 and go up from there. You’ll want to budget around $7.50 per alcoholic drink.
Is it safe to swim in St. Lucia?
Every beach on the island, including those that are part of the top resorts, is open to the public. Beaches on the eastern side of the island are considered safe for swimming, though you should still take all possible precautions. Beaches on the island’s western side are not safe for swimming, but these beaches are fun to explore via jeeps or horseback.
