May 4, 2022 News Room

TORONTO, ON – May 4^th, 2022 – The Saint Lucia Tourism Authority (SLTA) has launched a bespoke accommodations program to showcase 400-plus smaller accommodation properties in Saint Lucia.

Collection de Pépites features a broad range of one-of-a-kind island jewels, including local B&Bs, boutiques, inns and luxury villas. The name originates in the island’s French heritage and means a collection of small pieces or nuggets of gold.

The aim is to introduce travelers to properties that have 35 rooms or fewer, which may not be as well-known as the island’s larger hotels and resorts. Many of the properties offer distinct opportunities for visitors to discover culture, culinary and wellness experiences within intimate accommodations.

Collection de Pépites has a dedicated page on the Saint Lucia website, www.stlucia.org/collectiondepepites, where travelers can find detailed information on the types of accommodation and search by their specific criteria such as location, family-friendly or price.

Visitors can choose their accommodation and click through to book directly on the providers’ site. All participating properties have been accredited by the SLTA to provide an added layer of reassurance. Ongoing reviews and checks will take place to ensure quality control and safety management.
