"We had a lovely room and bathroom and the whole guest house is excellent. Mandy and Simon are fabulous hosts and their only interest is that you have a good time. The cooked breakfast was one of best I have ever had. Without doubt we would choose to stay at the Bhangazi Lodge if we were visiting St Lucia again."

"The property is beautiful and I loved the boardwalks through the forest. The staff was very helpful, professional, and friendly - they went out of their way to accommodate me as a vegetarian and the chef made a delicious curry even though it wasn't on the menu. Thank you for the lovely stay!"

L’accueil a été parfait et le petit déjeuner excellent. Tout le personnel est aimable."

"Outstanding experience, truly a highlight of our trip! The accommodation was amazing felt like luxury but you were still in nature. The tent was very clean and the staff turned over our room daily for day and evening (example tent flaps up during the day for more light and closed at night). Staff were friendly, meals were good, and the evening camp fire was a great way to meet other travelers.
The stand out was the amazing game drives, our driver and guide Taisa and tracker Derek were great and...

"My wife and I recently spent a night at Leopard Tree Lodge in St Lucia, and it was absolutely wonderful! From the warm welcome to the peaceful atmosphere, everything exceeded our expectations.
What We Loved:
✅ Beautiful Setting – The lodge is nestled in a serene, natural environment, with lush greenery and a relaxing vibe. Perfect for couples!
✅ Comfortable & Clean Room – Our accommodation was spacious, tastefully decorated, and spotlessly clean. The bed was very comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep.
✅ Friendly Staff – The team was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home.
✅ Great Location – Close enough to St Lucia’s attractions (like the estuary and restaurants) while still feeling secluded.
Highlights:
The tranquil ambiance—perfect for unwinding.
The lodge’s charming design, blending nature with comfort.
We only wish we could have stayed longer! Highly recommend Leopard Tree Lodge for anyone visiting St Lucia—whether for a romantic getaway or a peaceful retreat. We’ll definitely be back!"
