What's Included?

Holidays at Saline Reef Villa are designed to ensure all guests have time to relax and enjoy the beautiful villa and island of Saint Lucia. You worked hard to get here; you deserve to take it easy and let the hospitality professionals take care of the details.

PROFESSIONAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT AND CONCIERGE

Property Management is provided by the on-island rental agency, Blue Sky Luxury (BSL). Margueritte Martin is the BSL concierge assigned to Saline Reef Villa and is available for any need. BSL coordinates and oversees every aspect of the rental experience and will meet you at the Villa upon arrival to coordinate and assist. A wide array of activities and services are available for an additional fee. For special requests, please make arrangements through the BSL concierge who can assist with transportation needs, reservations, tours, activities and more. Special arrangements that require outside staffing can be made at your request - for example, a professional chef, a cocktail waiter for the evening, or live musical entertainment.

AMENITIES

Similar to a fine hotel, each bedroom suite is provided with luxury linens, cloths, towels, mats, bathrobes and a hair dryer. Each suite is freshened up daily. A variety of locally-sourced lotions, soaps and bathing products are provided. The entire property is regularly treated for mosquitos. Portable beach chairs, towels and a small cooler are available for guest use. Pool towels and beach towels are refreshed daily. Unlike at a hotel, you won't be competing for a pool lounger or table space and every guest there will be part of your own party. 

SECURE AND PRIVATE LOCATION NEAR NUMEROUS ATTRACTIONS

Saline Reef Villa is set on the northwest coast in the prestigious Saline Point area of Cap Estates. Its views are unspoiled and privacy is complete: none of the very few nearby villas have sightlines into the property. The local Rodney Bay area on the west coast is the entertainment, activity and shopping hub of Saint Lucia and is ~10 minutes away. It has so much to offer: upscale and casual restaurants; bars and clubs; shopping; spas; golf courses - including the new Cabot Saint Lucia; a world-class marina; professional cricket; and of course, beaches and parks like Pidgeon Point. The rugged east coast is just a few minutes away by car in this narrow part of the island, so the choices are many. Taxis are plentiful and rental cars can be delivered to the villa. The property is fully fenced and gated; you will be provided a key fob to open and close the gates when you choose to go out. The villa is also equipped with a monitored electronic security system.  

PROFESSIONAL STAFFING

Angel is the main housekeeper and day-to-day service coordinator – she is on duty 6 days a week and will cook and serve any two meals per day for you: breakfast, lunch if you're staying in, or she'll prepare an early dinner for you ready to heat and eat when you choose. Meal prep, using food you purchase, and housekeeping is included with your villa rental. See Meal Services, below, for additional details. If you require additional meals or services, simply inquire. Consult with Angel or the BSL concierge.

Angel will make any snacks, drinks etc. She will prepare a batch of her famous house-made banana rum punch – to die for! Angel has been with Saline Reef Villa for over 20 years, and her mother was the main housekeeper before her, so she’s knows everything there is to know about the house and how to get what you need. Juliana assists Angel part-time with housekeeping, cooking and more. She also fills in on Angel's day off (normally, Saturday).

Alfie is the outdoor areas specialist and "maintenance man." He will clean the pool and prepare outdoor guest areas for enjoyment daily. He will ensure your lounger towels and cushions are ready for you and generally make everything outside look spic and span. If anything needs to be adjusted or repaired, just let him know; he will do anything you ask to make your stay more pleasurable, and if he can’t do it, he will find someone from our many contractors who can. He will see that your luggage is taken to your suite and help you get acquainted with the house amenities. Alfie has also been with Saline Reef Villa for over 20 years and knows where everything is and how everything works. 

Oliver is the gardener and will make sure the garden plants, lawn and and pots are kept looking their best during every day of your visit, He maintains  the wonderful array of flowers and plants known to attract St Lucia's amazing variety of birds (especially the many hummingbirds that live in the garden). His main language is the local patois but he speaks a little English and understands French. If you need something specific from him, ask Alfie or Angel to translate.

Saline Reef Villa has a separate area, apart from the main structure, dedicated to the staff and their work. They do not need to utilize the main house areas other than to provide their services. The staff are there for your benefit and anything you want, just ask. They are very pleasant, hard working and will always do their very best for you. They are very proud of what Saline Reef Villa has to offer. Please note that our housekeepers are not trained nannies and should not be expected to look after and/or babysit infants or children. If you do make any baby-sitting arrangements directly with the housekeepers, please be advised that this will be at your own risk.

MEAL SERVICES

To best serve you, the BSL concierge will reach out before your visit to ensure your villa is stocked as you wish when you arrive. No need to rush to a store upon arrival! The concierge team can arrange for groceries, beverages and other supplies to be delivered to your holiday home in time for your arrival and during your stay. Angel can assist with any additional needs for supplies after you have settled in. There are farmers markets in the area and locally-sourced fruits and vegetables can be delivered directly to the villa for a nominal fee.

You can choose  to have up to two meals prepared for you each day - coordinate with Angel or Juliana. Morning and/or lunch menus will be prepared on-site daily to your specifications utilizing ingredients you choose to purchase. A variety of options are available for your evening meal, including home-made in advance for later heat-and-serve. You may also choose to have dinner out at a wide variety of restaurants in and around Rodney Bay. Meals can be set up for you at any of the many tables, indoors or outdoors. Just tell Angel or Juliana and it will all be done for you. Relax - you have better things to do than fuss around in the kitchen!

LAUNDRY

The housekeeping staff will wash on-site anything you leave in the laundry baskets. You can have the staff launder clothes during your stay, and for a small additional fee, they will ensure that your clothes are beautifully ironed, folded and/or hung in your wardrobe. Please make arrangements directly with staff for special laundry needs. It is great to have your clothes all washed and ironed during a longer stay or before going home!
