⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rabot Hotel from Hotel Chocolat is one of the most unique hotel experiences I’ve had. Nestled in the lush hills of Soufrière, the property offers breathtaking views of the Pitons and an atmosphere that feels peaceful, private, and completely immersed in nature. The staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout my stay. One of the highlights was experiencing the property’s connection to chocolate—from the cacao growing on-site to the various chocolate-inspired experiences available to guests. The rooms are designed to embrace the surrounding landscape, allowing guests to disconnect and truly appreciate the beauty of Saint Lucia. The views alone are worth the stay, especially at sunrise and sunset. The food was thoughtfully prepared, the grounds were beautifully maintained, and the overall experience felt authentic rather than overly commercialized. If you’re looking for a resort that offers something different from a traditional beachfront stay, Rabot Hotel delivers an unforgettable experience.

We enjoyed our honeymoon at Hotel Chocolat. Food is 10 out of 10. Views are amazing. We had the luxe lodge and definitely recommend for couples. The verandah space is worth it. We looked forward to the daily delicious breakfast and chocolate truffles in our room mini bar. I miss it already and would love to go back again. Staff and concierge was amazing. Also booking anything from excursions or just a taxi was so easy. Location is very convenient if you want to be close to all the attractions and access to restaurants or nearby beaches.

Lunch at Rabot is an experience on its' own! The ambiance is super chill and classy at the same time. Their Soursop Mocktail in champagne flute is a sparkling dream. Amazing Breadfruut Balls and Salt Fish Fritters. Rice...oh wow. Vegetables like a painting and crispy. The Chocolate Ravioli unique. Then the desserts....... the Chocolate Creme Brulee and Chocolate Tiramisu were OUT OF THIS WORLD! I wanted to take home a tub of each, along with the lovely pastry chef!.

AMAZING !! Stayed with my husband for 4 nights. From start to end the staff, food and accommodation have been so so good. The staff are friendly and accommodating, rooms clean and well equipped, food and service are the best we’ve had. Nothing is to much trouble. The rooms are open to the elements which is an experience in itself. We did the tour of the farm, it’s a definite must. We made our own chocolate bars. John was our guide and he was great. Loads of information.

The hotel is gorgeous and the location is amazing but you are limited in choices to eat and drink around the resort, unless you take a taxi, which the resort is happy to arrange. The rooms are very lovely and comfortable and open to the elements which is lovely. This place would have got 5 stars if it wasn't for the breakfast! We paid for B&B but the 'complimentary' breakfast was literally a plate with 2 bananas, a slice of melon and a smoothie shot. Everything else we had to pay for and it was very expensive!! The staff were mostly very friendly. If you're happy to not wonder far you will love this place but we would have preferred to be able to walk into town

Hotel Chocolat is my favourite brand of chocolate to eat in the UK , so it was wonderful to be able to stay here for a couple of nights after we had stayed by the coast for a few days. Chocolate made from cacao grown in St Lucia is distinctively different from any other chocolate. It has a malty flavour which I love. The rooms are essentially luxurious cabins. There are shutters (no glass) and an open air shower, so you are fully immersed in the jungle-like setting. There is no air conditioning but it was cool enough for us a night time. You will see and hear all the little jungle critters! (The hotel provides earplugs) The views from the pool area and bar/restaurant are breathtaking. You can see the road from one end of the pool area , so we moved to the other end and the problem was solved. The staff are great and arranged freshly picked coconuts from the hotel grounds, so we could have rum cocktails. The complimentary tour of the plantation was excellent and very informative.

This spot is so incredibly beautiful! We stayed in the luxe lodge. Our view was stunning as we overlooked Petit Piton. stalling asleep to the sounds of birds and nature was surreal. I was nervous that the open air may cause the room to be warm, or have mosquitoes but neither of these things ended up being issues. The staff was so kind. Food was great. The place is kept spotless. I’d love to go back.

We stayed at Rabot Hotel from Hotel Chocolat for two nights as a stopover on the way from the airport further north, and it was honestly the perfect format for a short stay. What you’re really paying for here is the atmosphere: individual lodges tucked into the jungle, with night-time nature sounds that didn’t disturb our sleep at all, if anything, it made the whole experience feel more “St Lucia” and less like a generic resort. The lodge was also well set up for the tropics (mosquito-friendly touches like a canopy over the bed and practical little bits that make a difference when you’re surrounded by nature). The chocolate theme is not a gimmick, it’s properly woven into the experience. The hotel sits on the Rabot Estate cacao plantation, and your stay includes a tree-to-bar/cacao tour where you can learn the process and even make your own chocolate bar. The restaurants lean into it too: lots of menu items and sauces/cocktails featuring cacao or chocolate notes in a fun way. A major highlight was the infinity pool and the view of the Pitons — absolutely stunning and one of those views you don’t get tired of. Worth noting: this is not a beach hotel. There’s no beach on-site, but they do run a complimentary shuttle (twice daily) to a nearby beach. For us, the beach itself wasn’t the main event as the hotel is more about the plantation/jungle vibe and the views. As a bonus, it’s a great base for exploring Soufrière — the Sulphur Springs “drive-in volcano” and mud baths are very close, and there are great viewpoints and trails in the area. Overall, for two nights it was exactly what we wanted: atmospheric, unique, very on-theme, and a lovely way to experience this part of the island before moving on.

We had a good stay, not a great one. The hotel is beautiful and the grounds are kept very clean. Pool and view are gorgeous. I found the restaurant food was above average but the prices were high. They did a great job accommodating reservation times and it was a seamless process with the in room tablet. Also loved the chocolate tour and pavilion where it is held. A huge drawback was the horrible mosquito nets. We stayed in the Luxe lodge, which is a hefty price, so you’d expect not to be bitten by mosquitoes all night long. The net they use for the bed is open at the bottom and very difficult to tuck into the mattress. The Airbnb we stayed at before coming here (for a fraction of the price) had a much better net. Also, on our last day I ordered room service an hour before check out. It was just a sandwich with a side salad and fries. 50 minutes later it hadn’t arrived so we went to reception to check out and head to the airport. They called the restaurant to have it switched into a to go container but still we had to wait an additional 10 minutes. I feel like this meal should have been comped. We paid more for the meal as is normal for room service, but this service was not met. And the kicker was they provided no cutlery or napkins. When you’re paying a premium, I expect a little better service.
