Ti Kaye Resort & Spa

With one of the best locations in Anse La Raye, Ti Kaye Resort & Spa features stunning views of the Caribbean. Surrounded by sea and lush forests, the resort is a great base from which to explore the island further and experience the local Caribbean heritage St Lucia offers.

All of the Ocean View Cottages are nestled on a sloping shoreline, with large balconies and a double hammock offering constant ocean vistas. The spacious rooms have sleek wooden furnishings, contrasted with white canopy beds. They can have interconnecting verandas for larger groups or families.

For that extra bit of luxury, opt for an Ocean View Cottage with Pool, which has a plunge pool on the deck of the veranda and rocking chairs: sit back and enjoy evening views of the St Lucian sunsets.

The two restaurants combine international dishes with Creole flavours, making the most of fresh and locally sourced St Lucian produce, including from the gardens. The Kai Manje restaurant (in Creole, its name means a house of eating or food) offers fine dining paired with wine from an impressive wine list of over 600 wines.

For a more relaxed dining option, the Ti Manje restaurant is open daily for you to enjoy beachside snacks from homemade burgers to the catch of the day whilst lounging on the silver sand beaches at Anse Cochon cove. If you’re looking for a lively evening dining experience, don’t miss the Creole buffet and live band every Wednesday, bringing the Caribbean to life.

Enjoy tropical cocktails at the Kai Manje bar, perched on the cliffside overlooking the calm waters below and superbly designed to live in harmony with its green natural environment, with a unique handcrafted bar scalloped with coconut wood.

The Kai Koko Spa, built at the cliff’s edge with dramatic views of the silver sands of Anse Cochon, is a wonderful place to indulge in a relaxing treatment, using traditional methods and local, organic ingredients. Its treatment rooms are also crafted in coconut wood, and it is not surprising that both cacao and coconut feature in many of its signature treatments. There is a relaxation/meditation room with a private Jacuzzi perfectly positioned to take in the stunning Caribbean views. If lying by the beach or the pool isn’t for you, let off some steam in the fitness centre.

During your stay, combine land and ocean. Explore the surrounding lush forests of St Lucia, visit botanical gardens and waterfalls or explore the island’s heritage and rich Caribbean culture. Alternatively, there are plenty of ocean activities on offer: try your hand at non-motorised water sports from the comfort of the private cove.

Ti Kaye has its own PADI dive centre, presenting the perfect opportunity to go snorkelling and diving amongst an array of tropical fish and coral reefs. The hotel is located within a marine reserve, and divers can enjoy some of the best dive spots on the island, including the Lesleen M wreck, a 165-foot freighter that was sunk in the bay in 1986.
