Who says you need a plane ticket to enjoy a vacation? Sometimes, the best getaways are right in your own backyard. A staycation in St. Lucia offers all the beauty, relaxation, and adventure of a tropical escape, minus the airport lines and travel stress. Whether you’re craving peace and quiet, a little romance, or a weekend with the girls, here’s how to plan the perfect staycation in paradise.
1. Choose the Right Location
The magic of a staycation lies in switching up your surroundings without going far. Kaye Devo Villa, nestled in the heart of Choiseul, gives you that ‘away-from-it-all’ feeling with stunning views, tranquil vibes, and all the comforts of home (and then some). It’s the perfect base for exploring the south of the island or for doing absolutely nothing.
2. Set the Mood
Just because you're still in St. Lucia doesn't mean you shouldn’t treat it like a real vacation. Light some candles, pack your favorite robe, bring a good book, and leave your laptop at home. Kaye Devo has all the cozy corners you need to truly unwind, plus that dreamy outdoor space perfect for a morning coffee or sunset drink.
3. Indulge in Local Experiences
Use your staycation to rediscover what makes St. Lucia so special:
Book a private chef to cook a Creole-inspired dinner.
Explore the Choiseul Art Gallery or local craft shops.
Hike Gros Piton or visit the nearby Waterfalls.
Treat yourself to a local spa treatment or a soothing beach massage.
4. Plan a Theme (or Don't!)
Want to make it extra fun? Choose a theme:
Romantic Retreat: Rose petals, wine, stargazing on the deck.
Girls’ Getaway: Spa night, cocktails, movie marathons.
Adventure Weekend: Waterfalls, hikes, and beach hopping.
Or… just freestyle it. Sometimes the best moments are unplanned.
5. Unplug & Recharge
Set boundaries. Let friends and family know you're “off-duty.” Ditch the work emails and go offline for a bit. Play music, take naps, soak in the silence, or the laughter of your loved ones. Kaye Devo Villa was made for this kind of soul-refreshing reset.
6. Support Local
Stock up on fresh fruits and snacks from a nearby market, order from a local restaurant, or grab some Choiseul-made rum or cocoa sticks to sip under the stars. You’ll be surprised how much there is to explore right around you.
