Villa Piton Caribbean Castle | Enhanced cleaning measures. CERTIFIED TO HOST!!!

Villa Piton is now CERTIFIED TO HOST as per St Lucia Ministry of Tourism. Listed as private villa #68 ( Villa Piton) at stlucia.org. Villa Piton is an uncommonly beautiful private Caribbean vacation residence, built by the legendary American architect John DiPol to perfectly reflect the splendor, serenity, and tradition of the tropical paradise and culture surrounding it. Located between the majestic Pitons, which are designated a UNESCO World Heritage site, the villa creates enduring memories of the perfect vacation.

It is certain, this is a place unrivaled. We owe tribute for the architecture to the American designer, John DiPol, who built the Villa Piton as his masterpiece and private residence. Employing DiPol’s trademark “open air”-concept, the home is the spirit of DiPol incarnate, expressing its rich surroundings by fusing the lush natural landscape with native St. Lucian materials and furniture to engender a space without bounds.

From the first moment you set eyes on the Villa Piton, your soul will find serenity. The open tranquility of the villa resounds in its nuances and design, as the natural St. Lucian granite and cedar woodwork rise gently from its space high upon the ridge between St. Lucia’s most celebrated Pitons, as if nature had intended it.

Beyond the breathtaking waterfront surroundings, unparalleled view, and plethora of amazing local attractions, your villa stay features an amazing array of standard amenities, accommodations, and features. In addition, our professional and friendly villa staff can help you to tailor your ultimate dream vacation experience, including home-cooked, traditional gourmet Creole meals, special event planning assistance, and a wealth of other concierge services.

Villa Piton

Amazing! Truly on top of a mountain! Open air with plenty of wind. Rain mostly at night but short bursts days. Some bugs but nothing major. The driving is a bit hair raising but you get used to it quickly. We kept busy with adventures in and around Souxfriere daily. 3 great restaurant meals and 2 cooked by Mary. I can’t say enough about Mary/cook, brother Greg/Jack of all trades, Larry/driver for dinner twice, and the extended family who helped with our 2 dinners. They all were friendly and so helpful connecting us with others. The beach at Sugar Beach resort is fantastic. Restroom and bar all open to us. The drive down is steep but worth it.Kermit was incredibly helpful with info and we did almost everything he suggested. Would definitely return!

Unsurpassed view

Overall, we loved staying here. Beds were comfortable, kitchen functional, and the spacious layout afforded plenty of privacy between bedrooms for two couples. The view was incredible, nestled between the grand and petit pitons with the sea in the distance. Rainbows appeared daily. The breezes kept us comfortable day and night. Like most venues with a spectacular view, it was not easy to get to as the roads were not the best. The staff was friendly and attentive, took care of our needs and was happy to give us invaluable advice that only locals can provide. Our only problem was with showering as only one of three showers was adequate. Overall a great stay.

Amazing House and View!

It’s hard to put into words the majesty of this property. It sits right next to Gross Piton and has an incredible view overlooking Sugar Beach. St. Lucia is a very rustic country similar to St. John, USVI. Mary and her family cooked a traditional local dinner for us one night and it was fabulous. Be careful traveling in the towns and stay in very visible areas. Or just stay on this amazing property. Best view of any property that I’ve ever stayed. Constant rainbows over sugar beach. So qmazing!

Great Family Friends Trip!!

We had 2 families with kids. We stayed for 3 nights. The views are incredible!! Very private. And lots of breeze to keep cool. Some of us got a bit eaten by bugs at night, but all the beds have bug nets, bug spray was provided, and some of us were totally fine and didn’t get any. Overall not a huge deal. The staff did a grocery shop for us for some staple groceries for our first day. And Mary, the housekeeper, cooked us dinner our first night!! It was incredible!!! Highly recommend having her cook a dinner! Would LOVE to go back!!!

Unreal! Amazing! Postcard views!

The trip was amazing! It brought me and my partner a lot closer to one another! Our first night there the power went out but I can’t even complain because we lit candles and played drinking games in the dark. The next day the staff helped us get it back on. Miss Mary was great and she cooked us an authentic dish and was very helpful. Words cannot describe this trip you just have to experience it. My advice is to bring plenty of bug spray lol. Our driver Tender was great! Actually the best! He took us to Victoria to party with the locals and we had a really great time eating the street food and listening to music! Tender (our driver) made the trip very very enjoyable!! We love Tender haha. The property and the views are amazing! Oh yea make sure you bring converters for the sockets because the plug ins are different so we were all using one phone charger. I took some amazing photos and videos. I have a drone video of us on the property and it looks like some out of a movie. I love the property and I will be back soon! I wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else!! Thank you so much!! I give it a 10/10

Charming, Unique, Unforgettable

We had an absolutely wonderful time at this charming house. The property is beautiful, full of character and unique details with amazing custom tiling. The views from the house are breathtaking, and the peaceful, quiet neighborhood made for a truly relaxing getaway. Greg was a delight to see every morning when he came by to clean the pool—always friendly and attentive. We were also treated to a delicious home-cooked meal by Mary on our first night. Nesha was also a delight and came by in the middle of the week to freshen up our towels and make sure we had everything we needed. Renting a car is a must for exploring the area, but be prepared for some adventure. The roads are narrow and a little steep. However, once you get used to it, driving through the dense foliage is an unforgettable experience that adds to the charm of the location. The house is just a short drive to the bottom of the hill, where you can walk along the beach to Sugar Beach, and it's a fairly easy drive into town for supplies or dining. The house has an open-air design that immerses you in the surrounding nature. I would advise to bring bug spray, as the open-air concept does come with its share of insects and lots of lizards! We left with some bug bites :) The homeowners were very friendly and easy to communicate with, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. We would definitely come back and highly recommend this property to others looking for a serene and charming retreat in St Lucia.

Breathtaking open view of the pitons

A spectacular open view of the pitons in an enchanting house designed by architect John Dipol. Artistry is seen in the tile work ( in the master bathroom it feels emersive) iron work, overall design of the house. The open to elements concept house means lizzards and bugs. Lizzards eat mosquitoes and are harmless. Mosquito netting over the 4 poster beds helps. Room fans, full modern kitchen. Mary and her grandchildren made an excellent first meal for us. Marcus and staff are wonderful! St. Lucia mountain driving is not for the faint of heart but the house and feeling of open, alone grandiosity of 2 piton view is more than worth it.

A tropical artistic expression nestled between two mountains

This place doesn’t even seem real. The pictures, even the video we found on YouTube, didn’t come close to what we experienced. This place gives you the kind of experience you can’t even understand until you’ve lived it. Immediately after walking in and seeing the view, my family and I were in love. This house is not just a house, but a work of art worthy of being in a museum. We could feel the creator who designed this truly loved house and placed it in a perfectly picturesque corner of this beautiful island. Both pitons are visible, one to each side, when you walk through the open air space from the front door to the back with palm trees swaying in front of the sun setting over the ocean. Everyday you wake up to a beautiful sunrise that makes you wonder if it’s real. Goats and geckos constantly asserting a peaceful chill to our experience. Overall this stay was the most breathtaking experience my family and I have ever seen. The staff are wonderful and kind. Expect an amazing trip if you decide to book here. The road to this paradise can be tattered and torn. But the treasure that this magical abode offers is beyond worth it. Worth the time, the money, the effort…. This isn’t a building. This is art installed at the grass of paradise.

Holiday Vaca

The view is indeed unbeatable! Contrary to the last post, I had no trouble communicating with the owner/host prior to our visit and found him very responsive. For those interested in having Mary cook, I can attest her cooking is fantastic. The only surprise was that the cost of the food is not included in the $40/per person cost so just be prepared to pay $50-60/per person for the meal depending on what you have. By comparison whole family loved Martha’s Table about 20 minutes away and our family of 6 ate there one day for about $20/per person. Hotel Chocolate and The Mango Tree were pretty comparable in cost to what Mary charged (also highly recommended) if you are interested in a night out at a fancy restaurant.

As with most Caribbean nations, the roads can be a bit trying, so get a four wheel drive and you’ll be fine.

Villa Piton was is as magical as you can imagine. Difficult to explain to put into words, you just have to go there. Location, management, the villa were exceptional. Kermit was extremely helpful as 6 star ratings ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I am from the island of St. Lucia knowing that my island has always been the most beautiful but the views where the villa is located is mesmerizing. I fell completely in love there and definitely plan to go back as soon as the end of this year maybe before. Miss Mary you are as wonderful as my grandmother when I left home at the age of 12 coming back home after 15 years you filled that loss I had as a child from my family and I thank you for everything. Kermit thank you again for everything and I will definitely be in contact again. Thank you and the entire staff for making this magical journey extra special.

Beautful villa in an amazing setting!

Villa Piton was a beautiful house in a gorgeous location. Nestled between the Pitons with an incredible view, the open air concept made you really feel at one with nature. The only sounds you really heard were the birdsong or the sea breeze rustling the palms. Kermit, the host, was immediately responsive and helpful, and the local staff at the house were welcoming, kindly, and available when needed. The house itself was well-furnished and clean, featuring local art, and an awesome ambiance. It was not hard to get to from the airport (though if driving I would recommend a good GPS and preferably getting there during the day) and provides easy access to the beautiful Sugar Beach and the challenging Gros Piton Hiking Nature Trail. All in all, I couldn't recommend Villa Piton enough. Hopefully we get a chance to visit again!

Amazing house, amazing location, wonderful host.

Villa Piton is a truly amazing place. The property, the views, the location are all breath taking. Highly recommended. The host - Kermit - is incredibly responsive and answers all questions that we had. The staff living nearby were super helpful and yet, not intrusive. The house is amazing. Plenty of space to spread out and relax. There's a constant breeze throughout the day and night because it's located on the top of a crest. The location is fantastic. This is the part of the island you want to be at. We would recommend hiring a guide - we used "Simon Says" and he was great. He arranged trips for snorkeling, boat rides, the sulphur springs and the rainforest. This location is great if you don't want to be with all the people at the big resorts, but instead you want to get more of a feel of what the island is like. Highly recommended.

Paradise!

This property is incredible. The house is beautifully designed. The open air room plan allows for the warm breeze all throughout the house and incredible views of the ocean and the Pitons. It felt like we were so close to nature, while still able to enjoy all the comforts of electronics, Wifi, etc. The house is "off the beaten path" and very private. The housekeepers are extremely friendly and accommodating. Mary's dinners were outstanding! Some other points for travelers outside of our great experience at Villa Piton - -Sugar Beach is the closest beach and has the greatest views of the Pitons, also offering resort like beach service, food & Wifi. While we were originally turned off by Sugar Beach because of high cost, we did return 2 more times because of its proximity and amenities. We found the trick for Sugar Beach is to park your vehicle at the back gate, just at the bottom of Villa Piton and walk along the beach line to the main beach chairs - this will save you entrance fee. Last point about Sugar Beach is you will get more of a resort typical crowd - younger, louder and the typical local peddlers. -Anse Mamin was our favorite beach as was truly one of a kind. The sand is like nothing we have ever experienced before and there was great snorkeling just off shore. The beach was secluded, friendly and quiet while still offering beach chair service, food and drinks. Your best method of getting to Anse Mamin is to again walk down the beach line from back entrance at Sugar Beach and hire a water taxi at Sugar Beach to drive you over. -A few points about driving: First, do not skimp on your vehicle. The roads are a challenge to say the least and you will find security in a newer, nicer SUV type vehicle. We rented a 2-door Jeep Wrangler and it did what we needed it too but, it was older and definitely used - leaving concerns with tire wear and braking performance. You will definitely want a vehicle with very good brakes!! While we do recommend a rental car for driving to and from the back entrance of Sugar Beach, we were not wanting to do a lot of exploring because of the challenges with roads. Especially, the one time we decided to drive to Anse Mamin beach - you truly do put your life at risk driving along a mountain side cliff on this journey. Al in all - St. Lucia will definitely be one of our most memorable Caribbean trips!

Villa Piton Soufriere

Everything was above the expectations: absolutely stunning views (pictures cannot tell how beautiful the surroundings and the view are), great service an delicious cooking by Mary, communication was easy, timely and precise. The place is on the hill and located between the Pitons opening most dramatic view you can imagine towards the Carribean see below. Tge Villa was built using open-air concept, it is absolutely private and is not overlooked by neighbours, and what is very important in tropics - it has no bugs, insects or similar even if you turn on the lights by night! You will not regret you stay here if you are bigger company up to 8 people or a family. Probably the best location in St Lucia!
