A huge thank you to our Host at Ingwenya Lodge, Madeleine. Other than beautiful and spotless accommodation with a beautiful view- she provided us with priceless information on all the activities Available. Madeleine should double as a guide for St Lucia, her knowledge and love for the area filters through. We took her recommendations and maximised on our trip and will be back soon to finish exploring. Thank you for being key in making our stay memorable — at Ingwenya Lodge.

We viewed several lifers from our deck, with sightings of the Crowned and Trumpeter Hornbill, Yellow/breasted Tinkerbird, Diederik’s Cuckoo and many more. Everything was neat, clean, comfortable and excellent value for money. The Host Madelein , was Superb!

We had an excellent stay at Ingwenya lodge. Our host was very friendly and helpful in recommending things to do around St. Lucia, and the accommodation itself was lovely. We had all the facilities that we needed, and despite the electricity going off for a day during the stay (this was an area-wide problem), we could still use our lights in our room.

Situated in a quit street the lodge is a great place to stay for discovering the wetland. Madeleine was very helpful with recommendations and everything else we needed. Our apartment had an amazing sea view. I would definitely recommend it and stay there again.
