To fully experience Creole cuisine with an international flair, coupled with friendly, plantation hospitality, dining at La Haut Restaurant is a must! We specialize in a wide selection of local Creole and international dishes, using only the finest, locally grown fruits and vegetables. Enjoy our local fish specialties in this order of popularity - flying fish, dorado, snapper and kingfish, not forgetting the fish cakes. Other specialties are clam chowder, pumpkin chips, coconut chicken and succulent Lobster (seasonal) prepared with fresh herbs from our very own Plantation. La Haut prides itself in preparing healthy and wholesome food using the finest and freshest ingredients. The open-air restaurant overlooks a breathtaking vista that is described by locals and visitors alike as "perfect". Relax on one of three outdoor balconies and gaze onto the spectacular view of The Pitons, the charming town of Soufriere, the Sulphur Springs, and of course, the turquoise blue waters of the Caribbean Sea - all while savouring the very best in authentic Creole Cuisine. |
Afterwards, stretch your legs in the restaurant lounge and enjoy our collection of Caribbean artwork and handicraft. Play a game of snooker, practice on the antique piano, or choose a book or game from the guest library. Or take a stroll in the manicured gardens while taking in the abundance of tropical flowers. Or simply choose a different chair with another perfect view... and don't forget to visit our gift boutique, for a souvenir of La Haut Plantation to help you cherish your holiday. From cocoa house to guest house - La Haut's scenic serenity and tropical tranquility abounds... Our pleasant, family run guesthouse is situated on a lush mountain 770 feet above sea level on the west coast of St. Lucia overlooking the Caribbean Sea, the Pitons and the Soufriere rain forest. Part of a 52-acre former coconut and cocoa estate, the Guest House possesses a unique history. |
| Although the rich aroma of cocoa beans no longer wafts through the air, you can enjoy the perfume-scented, tropical fauna or the warm salty breeze that blows off the Caribbean Sea. The surrounding gardens boast an 8-foot freshwater swimming pool, an array of tropical plants and a small bird sanctuary. Guests are given a plantation tour and encouraged to stroll around the plantation to witness daily farm life at La Haut - complete with a few goats, cows, an aviary and two adorable donkeys, Jenny & Paula. |

Things To Do La Haut Plantation is ideal for nature lovers seeking tranquility or casual adventure in the unspoiled Caribbean island of St. Lucia. La Haut is only minutes away from most of the island's main nature activities and many historic sites that provide once-in-a-lifetime experiences. |
Beaches Relax on the volcanic sand at Anse Chastanet, which offers excellent scuba diving and snorkeling facilities. Take a water taxi to the Jalousie beach and see the island from the sea. Best snorkeling on the island under the cliffs by the Hummingbird beach. (20 minutes)

Sports & Adventure Climb the Gros Piton Mountain and for the more adventurous the Petit Piton. Views from both are a once in a lifetime experience. Scuba diving under the Petit Piton sheer rock wall has been described as one of the ten best in the world. Mountain bike, fish, kayak, whale & dolphin watch, bird watch. Walk on the Wild Side…or simply walk along the main road. La Haut is 770 ft above sea level and the town of Soufriere is a cool walk down the mountain but a good challenge coming back up even for the fit. If tired, there is always a place you can stop for a drink and relax, or walk to Livity Studio, ½ mile higher up La Haut on the main road for a wide selection of local arts and handicrafts.
