Honeymoon Reimagined: Rainforest Adventures & Beachfront Luxury in Saint Lucia

Start your journey by heading straight into the island’s lush interior—settling into Rabot Hotel, set high above Soufrière with panoramic views of the Pitons.

Spend the afternoon unwinding, enjoying the cool mountain air, and easing into St. Lucia’s slower rhythm.

I recommend an early dinner overlooking the cacao groves, especially if you love fresh, local cuisine with a twist.

• Insider tip: Book a room with an open-air layout so you can fall asleep to rainforest sounds and wake up surrounded by greenery.

Today is your deep-dive into St. Lucia’s rainforest beauty.

Start with a guided hike through the lush trails near the estate—the perfect way to see local plants, wildlife, and sweeping mountain views.

Cool off afterward with a swim at Toraille Waterfall or Piton Falls, both easy to access and incredibly refreshing.

In the afternoon, return to Rabot for a cocoa-inspired spa treatment. It’s one of the most unique wellness experiences on the island.

• Tip: Go early to the waterfalls to avoid crowds and enjoy the pools almost entirely to yourself.

This day is dedicated to exploring St. Lucia’s volcanic and cultural side.

Begin with a tour of Rabot Estate, where you’ll learn how cacao is grown, harvested, fermented, and transformed into chocolate—a hands-on experience that feels both fun and surprisingly educational.

From there, head to the Sulphur Springs for a volcanic mud bath and mineral soak, which locals swear by for glowing skin.

End your final rainforest evening with a sunset cocktail and a quiet dinner surrounded by the sounds of the jungle.

• Insider note: Bring a swimsuit you don’t mind getting stained from the mineral-rich mud.

Spend the day immersing yourself in the authentic heart of St. Lucia.

Start with a morning visit to the Sulphur Springs, the world’s only drive-in volcano, where you can soak in mineral-rich mud baths and take a warm dip in volcanic pools—a unique experience that’s both fun and rejuvenating.

From there, wander the charming streets of Soufrière village, stopping by local markets to sample tropical fruits, artisan chocolate, and handmade crafts. Take a guided tour of a cacao plantation, where you’ll learn about the chocolate-making process from bean to bar and even get hands-on with tasting sessions.

End your afternoon with a scenic drive along the coastline, pausing at lookout points to admire the Pitons and snap unforgettable photos.

• Insider tip: Hire a local guide who can share stories and hidden gems for an authentic, memorable experience.

Dedicate this day to pure indulgence at the stunning Viceroy Sugar Beach, nestled between the iconic Pitons.

Begin with a morning swim or paddleboard session in the crystal-clear waters just steps from your villa.

Enjoy a leisurely brunch overlooking the beach before heading to the rainforest-inspired spa for a couple’s massage—the ultimate way to unwind.

In the afternoon, lounge in your private plunge pool or stroll along the soft sands of your secluded beach, perhaps with a chilled glass of champagne in hand.

As the sun sets, savor a romantic dinner at Bayside Restaurant, where fresh local ingredients and spectacular views create a dining experience you’ll remember forever.

• Insider tip: Request a villa with Piton views for the most breathtaking sunrise and sunset moments.
