Ti Kaye Resort & Spa St Lucia

Ti Kaye Resort & Spa is located on the secluded Anse Cochon cove on the legendary island of Saint Lucia – perfectly nestled along the cliff side overlooking the serene waters, which hungrily lap the silver sand on the secluded beach below.

The resort is often described as inspired by nature; each cottage purposely built into the landscape, drawing from the beauty of its lush natural surroundings.

Equipped with modern amenities and some unusual quirks, guests are invited to unplug and indulge in the purposely built outdoor shower, dip in their personal pool or simply relax in the double hammock while watching the sunset from their balcony.

Enjoyment of the postcard perfect views and all Ti Kaye has to offer while relaxing in your cottage, affords total privacy by design.

ROOMS & SUITES
Nestled on the cliffside above Anse Cochon cove, one of the best snorkeling bays in St. Lucia, 33 charming cottages line the sloping hill. Each cottage, or ‘ti kaye’ (Creole for ‘little house’), is purposely built for stunning sunset views over the Caribbean Sea and to afford an all-consuming breathtaking view of the azure waters below and is accessible by a matrix of paths and stairs which are lit up at night.

All accommodations share certain aspects including a private outdoor garden shower and a large balcony with a double hammock and rocking chairs. Full glass windows and door allows natural light in and insulates the room thus keeping heat out and cool air from the air conditioning or ceiling fan in.

Although we offer a quiet escape from the world, free high-speed Wi-Fi is available all over the resort for the guests who can’t completely unplug. For more details on each room category, please view the listing below to find the perfect fit for you!

OCEAN VIEW COTTAGE WITH POOL
There are 11 Ocean View Cottages with Pools, and these are located closest to the cliff’s edge offering the best, unhindered views and more privacy. Very popular with our repeat guests, these individual and private cottages tend to sell out first.

These cottages have the largest private deck out of the three room categories, as well as a private plunge pool. The location of these is indicated by the round blue dots on the map. All Ocean View Cottage with Pool rooms have a stunning view of the Caribbean Sea and feature a large bedroom, spacious deck with two rocking chairs, table and a double hammock.

They also have ceiling fans and air conditioning, four poster beds with mosquito nets, complimentary tea and French press coffee facilities, a mini-fridge, telephone, hairdryer, iPod dock, in room safe, walk-in closet, iron and ironing board plus daily maid and turn down service. Beautiful outdoor garden showers are open to the stars and lined with tropical plants. Power is both 110v and 220v.

OCEAN VIEW COTTAGE
Similar in design and amenities to the Ocean View Cottage with Pool category of rooms, the Ocean View Cottages do not however have a private plunge pool.

Offering spectacular views of the Caribbean Sea these rooms are priced slightly lower than the Ocean View Cottage with Pool but are still surrounded by nature with each of the individual 8 cottages being near the cliffside. All Ocean View Cottages have a great view of the Caribbean Sea and feature a large bedroom, spacious deck with two rocking chairs, table and a double hammock.

OCEAN VIEW ROOM
Our Ocean View Rooms are the standard room category offered at the resort and are styled like a duplex (semi-detached). There is no connecting door inside, but the veranda balcony is separated by a door which can be locked or left open if your family or group has occupied both sides.

Out of the 14 Ocean View Rooms, 3 rooms have 2 queen beds instead of the usual king bed in the remaining 11 Ocean View Rooms and all other room categories. Equipped with separate entrances at opposite ends guests are still in a private room, with private amenities.

Although the Ocean View Rooms are set further back and higher up on the property, each room inside is the same size as our Ocean View Cottage and Ocean View Cottage with private plunge Pool rooms. All Ocean View Rooms have a view of the Caribbean Sea and feature a large bedroom, spacious deck with two rocking chairs, table and a double hammock.

Its conveniently located in the bay right in front the resort. Ask about our kayak dives to the wreck.

BEACH & WATERSPORTS
Ti Kaye is located in a bay called “Anse Cochon” which translated means “bay of pigs”. Since we are a volcanic island, the dark (basalt) rocks produce a black sand. This mixed with the coral sand gives us the silver or gray sand you find on our beach.

Watch out, it gets really hot during the day so wear slippers. There are 166 steps down to the beach. Going down is easy; it’s coming back up that’s hard so just take your time. We do have a Bellhop however, so if you are unable to make it please ask one of our team members to get you a ride.

On the beach you will find hand-made wooden pergolas, wooden sun loungers with luxurious padded cushions, side tables and large Tucci umbrellas. Lastly, please note that all beaches on St. Lucia are public. We are secluded but not private so we do have others to share the beach with.

KAYAKING
Kayaks are available for complimentary guest use at Ti Kaye Resort & Spa. Take a single out to enjoy a quiet morning on the water or go exploring for the afternoon with a partner in a double. The clear waters of Anse Cochon allow you to see marine life below as you follow our coastline.

DEEP SEA FISHING
Our waters are abundant with a variety of big game fish, such as Blue Marlin, Sail Fish, Yellow Fin Tuna, Wahoo, and Dorado to name a few. We strongly believe in conservation and thus strictly practice the tag and release of all billfish.

As Saint Lucia is a volcanic island, the water drop-off area where the fish congregate, lies only two miles off the coastline, therefore facilitating faster and easier access to the best fishing grounds.
