Jalousie Plantation ReviewPerched within a seemingly endless grove of coconut palms in the Val des Pitons, this is an elegant resort for visitors looking for privacy. It originated in the late 1990s, sprawling across one of the most desirable building sites in St. Lucia. The property is so large (130 hectares/321 acres) that vans circulate to shuttle guests around. An ongoing renovation of the headquarters and the tile-roofed villas was expected to have been finished in 2009, with 52 additional units added. Many of the resort's accommodations are in individual villas or villa suites (slightly larger, with separate sitting rooms) that dot the hillside. Villas and suites have private plunge pools. In addition to the villas, 12 Sugar Mill double rooms are in two buildings; they're slightly smaller but still have private terraces. Facilities: 4 restaurants; 4 bars; babysitting; children's programs; 3-hole golf course; health club; fitness classes; squash court; outdoor pool; on-site disco (Fri and Sat nights only); room service; smoke-free rooms; spa; 4 lit Laykold tennis courts; watersports; dive shop Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
