How to get to Beausejour Residence
- An exclusive residence at St Lucia’s most exclusive address
Saint Lucia is serviced by daily international flights into each of its two airports. There are direct flights from the UK on Virgin Atlantic and British Airways, and JetBlue flies a service direct from New York. Air Canada and West Jet also provide direct service from Toronto. American Airlines flies regularly from Miami to Hewanorra as does its regional service, American Eagle into George F.L. Charles Airport.
Beausejour House at Beau Estate is located in the district of Soufriere, approximately 15 minutes from the town centre, 45 - 60 minutes from Hewanorra International Airport and 1 ½ hours from George F.L. Charles Airport in Castries. Because of its remote location, we recommend arranging for an airport transfer for an additional cost at the time of booking. You may also consider a helicopter service. St Lucia Helicopters offers airport transfers by reservation.
While Saint Lucia is relatively small and accessible, driving here is not for everyone. Should you wish however, to rent a car and drive to Beausejour, print a copy of the directions provided.
Driving Requirements & Directions
Key Facts:
- If driving a rented vehicle you must first get a driving permit at the airport. You will need your driver’s license and will be required to pay a fee of $21US Dollars.
- You must pay an exit fee from the Airport Car park.
- The journey from Hewanorra International Airport to Beausejour is 26 miles.
- We drive on the left hand-side of the road.
- Roads are narrow with sharp hairpin bends.
- There are no street or road names along the way except in towns; however, they are ambiguous.
- Speed bumps are situated outside all schools.
- Mini buses (taxis and public transport) can drive very fast and will overtake you. Therefore, please take extra care.
Directions:
Exit the Airport Entrance and turn right to begin a coastal drive to Soufriere. Follow the wide concrete road until you come to a small roundabout. Turn right and follow the road, through the traffic lights, keeping the landing strip on your right and the coast to your left. Continue along this road past the communities of Laborie and Choiseul, being mindful of the many hairpin bends and steep inclines along the way. Between 30 and 40 minutes into the journey you will come across a two storey pink building on the left hand side of the road. Pass the building and turn left just after the speed bump. The road is narrower so proceed with caution. You will come to a small bridge without railings that will take you across the river followed by another after about five minutes. After another five minutes, turn right at the yellow hut, and across a third bridge to a concrete road. Follow the road up and then down hill until it levels. As it levels, you will come across an oval roundabout. Take a sharp left here and drive until you come to the entrance of Beausejour.

"Visiting Beausejour a year ago was an inspiration and this place holds a special position in our bestseller book; ‘Tropical Homes of the Eastern Caribbean'. We are happy to be back and include Beausejour in our upcoming book once again. Thank you all for your hospitality. "- Derek Galon, March 2010
