Rabot Hotel is a chic boutique hotel in St Lucia presented by Hotel Chocolat, a luxury chocolate company from Britain. Perched 1,000 feet above sea level, the eclectic 5-star hotel is nestled in a 140-acre rainforest estate, previously the oldest cocoa farm in the country. Taking inspiration from traditional cocoa farms, the hotel embraces a dark wooden design with traditional elements such as pitched roofs and stone walls.
Rabot Hotel presents 25 airy lodges. Echoing the overall theme, the rooms are all designed with a minimalistic white and wooden palette. On the inside, you will find detailed furnishing, a king-size four-poster bed, an open-sky rainforest shower, a Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser, and free wifi. The Luxe Lodges also have a private verandah with sun loungers and expansive Piton views.
A major highlight of Rabot Hotel includes its gorgeous outdoor infinity pool with uninterrupted views of the Pitons. Feel free to order a chilled cocktail and unwind at one of the wooden sunbeds. During your stay, you will also get to join the complimentary tree-to-bean experience, where you can learn more about the journey and production of cacao beans.
A restaurant and a bar are located inside the hotel. Rabot Restaurant is a breezy open-air dining venue with a cocoa-focused menu. For instance, you will find sophisticated dishes such as pork tenderloin marinated in cacao beer. For drinks, the Cocoa Bar is open all day with a diverse selection of beverages. Make sure you also try out the unique cacao-infused drinks.
