Anse Mamin

St Lucia


Backed by lush rainforest, this dreamy secluded enclave of sand edges a gently curved cove that's about a 10-minute walk north of Anse Chastanet, or about 30 minutes from town. The resort also has sun loungers and a grill restaurant here but they are tastefully done and don't take away from the absolute tranquility.
