You’ve flown over one of the jewels of the Caribbean and have had to stop for a deep clean when all you want to hear is… chop, chop, let’s explore Saint Lucia.
Of course, the best way to first see Saint Lucia and its stand-out Piton Mountains is in a bird’s view.
And how much closer can you get than by chopper as we found out over Barcelona and the Grand Canyon.
So if you had your head turned down the first time you saw a copter, say in Magnum PI, or now I’m A Celebrity, read on.
Because luxury boutique resort & spa, Cap Maison in Saint Lucia has raised the bar with its ‘Fly & Save’ offer.
Giving guests the chance to kickstart their summer getaway with a VIP arrival in a helicopter.
From Hewanorra International Airport to George F.L Charles Airport in the north
Where a private car will take them on the remainder of their journey to clifftop billet Cap Maison in the exclusive Cap Estate.
Mud, glorious mud
You’ll get to enjoy the Sulphur Mud Baths, horse-riding along a beach, a coco ‘Bean to Bar’ experience and a Rainforest Zip Line Adventure.
Some of which we’ve enjoyed elsewhere in Barbados and Tobago and would obviously like to repeat.
While Saint Lucia boasts the only Drive-in volcano in the Caribbean (grilled burger please!!).
Nothing to worry about here… do like the islanders and just go with the flow.
Cap Maison offers newly refurbished hacienda-inspired fully fitted and furnished rooms.
Two to three-bedroom suites are available, as are smaller one-bedroom suites with roll away beds in various living spaces.
All suites feature a private pool.
Water thrill
The well-situated beach is set within a shallow cove and features its own water sports centre.
If you only like to dip your foot into the choppy waves of water sports.
Then Hobie Cat sailboats, like Bubba’s on Barbados maybe, are probably more you than kayaks, snorkelling and windsurfing but I’ll let you make up your own mind on that.
And the two on-site award-winning restaurants The Cliff at Cap and The Naked Fisherman and the beach restaurant The Naked Fisherman.
And who knows it might do what it says on the tin, if it was tinned, but, of course, it’s straight out of the sea.
