My Husband and I have just returned from the Bel Jou after spending two lovely weeks there. This hotel sits in a perfect position overlooking Castries and what beautiful views. We ate some of our meals on the verandah and looked at these amazing views whilst our glasses were always topped up by the waiters. The waiters and waitresses at... More

This report is the honest views of my wife and I without any hidden agenda. First impressions of the Bel Jou were of a well maintained hotel with security a main consideration. A high wire mess fence surrounded the property with the boundary being regularly patrolled by security staff 24/7. The rooms were of a good size with the en-suite... More

Just returned from a fantastic 2 week holiday at the Bel Jou on St Lucia. We asked for and got a room on the top floor. The view overlooking Castries and the sea from the room was amazing, so much better than the hotels on the beach. Beds were very comfortable, and the AC worked well. The food quality was... More

As the title above suggests the Bel Jou is a home from home for British Elderlies. Whilst the rooms are clean and comfortable the decor is old fashioned but the rooms are well serviced each day. The hotel is situated up a hill away from Castries and the beach. A minibus service does run to take you to a number... More
