This is an average B&B in St Lucia. I would recommend it only for an overnight stay and if all other areas in town are full, as was the case with us. The male owner is a very lovely and sociable person and provided great advice on what do to when in St Lucia. The room we stayed in was... More

I don’t really know where to start so I will summarize as much as possible: - Booked into African Dreamz (African Ambience sister guest house with same owners) as there was no where else available over Easter. - Greeted by a highly agitated owners wife who threatened to “kill her husband” for moving the bookings registry and made a fuss...

We found mobs to do and the owners made excellent recommendations. It takes but a few minutes to work out the village and what's available - it's all... More

Nice property, close to ' the citycentre', good advise on trips etc. But all in all it just doesn't give you the wonderfull feeling that south african guesthouses tend give you. St Lucia itself (so many hippo's!!!!!) is ok for a night or two, but the town itself is pretty dull.

We've stayed in a variety of guest houses in S Africa over the years, but African Ambience proved to be disappointing. On the plus side, the house itself is clean (apart from lizard droppings on the bed, but hey this is Africa), and the bedrooms pleasant enough. Their garden is stunning, and the house is situated within safe walking distance... More
