I had a wonderful time and would like to bring my 3 adult children next time. I think I will rent a car as well. I will keep all the info so I can contact you when we plan our next stay. I must admit my favorite experience was helping the fishermen at Cap and Bas Beach pull in the big fishing net then eating fresh fish with them after. I felt almost like a real St Luchian. It was a real honor to be included and help out. I also loved climbing Gros Piton. Our guide Damascus was very fit and knowledgeable. I am going to send him a pair of my sons hiking boots and some T shirts for future hikes. Thanks again for the hospitality. My first trip to St Luchia will be something I will remember forever and I know my children will love it as well. Sincereley Trish Morkin P.S. Cheli is a lovely person and very helpful.

Thank you for a wonderful stay at Viewtique! Cheli and the girls did a wonderful job of taking care of us, and it felt like we were leaving a friend. A wonderful new year's spent on St. Lucia. We hope to return!

I would like to thank all your staff on behalf of my husband and I. You were all professional and giave of yourselves. We would have love to leave something behind but things got out of have for the hurricane and have to spend more that we expected.
We loved your country and even though you did have a terrible hurricane we still did enjoy your beaches and everything that we were previleged to see, most of all the villa. I was very quiet and beautiful and did not want to leave.
I did take one of your plastic bowls becasue we had food that we did not want to throw away, Sorry.
All in all I just wanted to give you guys a shout out!

The arrangements were excellent, not perfect, but life isn't. The staff was excellent. Next time I rent a car, a little out of the way, however very relaxing. Will definately be back again.

Dear Tessa,
As Melanie's supervisor I very much wanted to let you know what a
fantastic help she was in assisting me to book a fabulous home via your
company (St Lucia Maison de Falaise— Three Bedroom Ocean View Villa).
For the past six days, I have been working to identify a house that my
partner and I could rent for approximately 11 weeks. I spent many hours
corresponding with well over fifty home owners and rental agencies to
track down a house in the Caribbean for our working vacation (we are
both academic writers).
Above all the home owners and rental agents I dealt with, Melanie,
without question, was the most professional person that I spoke with.
She answered all my many questions with poise and charm. Melanie was
most knowledgeable and very helpful in assisting me to make a very good
decision. I am very happy with the house, with her help, that I
selected.
It was a great pleasure to work with Melanie. You, as her supervisor,
should be very proud to have her representing your company. She is of
great benefit to your company and was a tremendous help to me.
Thank you. I will continue to utilize the services of your company in
the future, and will definitely seek out Melanie’s help.
Sincerely,
Rodd Hedlund, MEd

I stayed at Gateway Villas for a month in July and had an amazing stay. I stayed in one of the villas that was close to the beach. The property grounds were gorgeous and well pruned. There were even little mango trees with mangoes that were in bloom on the property. Truly a lovely Caribbean experience. My 5 year old enjoyed going to the beach which was visible from the property and only a 1 minute walk. Tessa and Cheli were so incredibly helpful and were able to give me helpful hints to help make my stay so memorable. I would definitely recommend any property that is fully run and managed by Gateway because they really put their clients first.

Melanie, Chelee & Johnson and of course everyone else at Gateway:
Thanks you so much for making my holiday there so enjoyable. Chelee (spelling?- sorry!) and Johnson especially went out of their way to help me and couldn't have been nicer & I really appreciate it. I have travelled a lot the last few years but sincerely you were by far the most pleasant & helpful and it really made it a wonderful relaxing vacation!
I have been telling everyone I know about St.Lucia and your villas and hopefully some will be able to visit you on their holidays.
Take care & I will see you again as soon as time & money allow!!

I have wanted to visit St. Lucia for a long time and a friend of mine from your sister isle, Tobago, recommened Gateway to me. This was the first time I actually planned a vacation on my own in addition it was going to be my Mom's birthday so I was really praying for the best. And I got it!!! As soon as we entered our eyes lit up. All the services were on time from the mintune we arrived at the air port and I saw the driver with my name to the jeep rental person. The best part is that it's really close to everything our favourite was Piegon Island Beach and for my Mom's birthday we went to Charhouse and got some ribs, try it So when next I go back to St. Luica this is definately the place to stay.

I just got back home from my vacation in St. Lucia. Staying at Gateway Villas made the most impact on my trip. All the staff, especially Tessa, Melanie and Calvin, were so attentive and courteous to my needs. The rooms, grounds and facilities are immaculate and absolutely beautiful.The most convenient part was the contracted driver Johnson who took me everywhere I needed to go all over the island. He was outstanding. Even when my friend's expected arrival was delayed, cancelled then delayed again (lol) he remained courteous and hospitable and kept me calm when I began to worry. He absolutely went out of his way, above and beyond!! I also enjoyed the catamaran tour arranged by barefoot. I was able to visit the Pitons, La Soufriere, the Sulfur Springs, the Botanical Gardens and Diamond falls, including a huge buffet lunch at a beautiful restaurant, snorkeling off a coral reef, additional site seeing, and all the rum punch you could drink all in one day tour (whew!! I was exhausted but it was well worth it!!) I also dined at BUZZ!! The food was indescribable, succulent and sumptuous! I visited the Rodney Bay mall, the beautiful Pigeon Point and had a shopping spree in Castries. My five days in St. Lucia were fun filled but way too short!!!! This was a trip for one and all. Perfect for couples and families in fact I plan to bring my children next year when I come back and stay with Gateway and for a much longer stay!!! The reasonable prices for everything, the accommodations, the staff and Lucian people, the courtesy and hospitality and of course the GORGEOUS island of St. Lucia will keep me coming back again and again!! Thank you all again for the best vacation ever!!!

We could not believe how wonderful our unit, our car and the property of Gateway Villas turned out to be. The staff was helpful and efficient and everything promised was delivered. It is our dream to return as soon as possible and enjoy the beauty and serenity of Gateway and St. Lucia.

We care about how you feel, if you have been with us, post your review here
Our group visited St. Lucia in early June (2002) on a medical missionary trip. We desired an AFFORDABLE, modern (newer) property to stay and Gateway Villa fit the bill perfectly. Each of the 8 villas that our group occupied was homey, bright, airy, comfortable, nicely furnished ...let's just say that it was more than we expected. All our needs or requests are eagerly and promptly met with a simple phone call to you Tessa. It is quite obvious that customer service is paramount to you and your property managment team.
As we worked hard serving the medical needs of the St. Lucians, it was wonderful to return to the villas each evening to relax, unwind, enjoy the spectacular views and cool island breeze.
Undoubtedly, each member of our group had a memorable experience and have individually stated that they would stay at Gateway Villas upon their next visit to St. Lucia. Thank you for the memories and we hope to return soon.
