I loved this beach! We were not guests as the hotel, but we came to this beach twice. We walked from Anse Chastanet to Anse Mamin, which took under 10 minutes. Anse Mamin is so quiet. The beach & water are absolutely beautiful. This was one of my fav beaches ever. The hotel security were kind & welcoming each day we arrived. We also patroned the restaurants at both ends of the beach. Both were delicious. We also bought beer and asked for an ice bucket which was really nice to have in our quiet spot. We opted NOT to visit Sugar beach after enjoying this beach so much. We did not rent beach chairs, but we could have. Highly recommend enjoying this beach.

During my stay, I also ventured to Anse Chastanet Beach, which is just a short 10-minute drive away. While the road may be a bit rough, the journey is well worth it once you arrive at this pristine slice of paradise. It's important to note that there is a luxury resort with the same name as the beach, but don't be fooled – the beach is public. Simply park at the entrance and inform the guard that you're heading to the beach.

We day tripped here from our Air BnB two times on our trip to St. Lucia, mostly for the snorkeling. The reef is roped off in one area to keep the boats out which is nice. The water here has nice clarity and the reefs were very impressive with a wide variety of fish on display. Even though this is a resort, the beach is public use and the staff were accomodating of non guests. We also ventured further north up the beach to snorkel near the pier and spotted sea turtles which was a highlight! The beach to the north of the main area offers a lot more sand and some more surf for the kids to play in as well as a burger bar. Overall, a must visit on your trip to St Lucia if you plan to snorkel.
