Rabot Hotel From Hotel Chocolat - Soufriere

Adults-only boutique resort on a working cacao plantation in Soufriere, Saint Lucia

Cacao-Inspired Dining & Bar

Rabot Hotel From Hotel Chocolat Soufriere operates an open-air restaurant and Cacao Bar, both using cacao from the hotel's own Rabot Estate. The restaurant serves contemporary dishes influenced by West Indian and British cuisine, with roasted cacao beans used as a savoury spice and garnish. The bar offers cocktails made from fresh local juices and a selection of cacao-based drinks, including Hotel Chocolat's Velvetised Cream.

Cacao Spa & Wellness

The hotel's Cacao Spa provides treatments using fresh ingredients gathered daily from the estate, such as banana leaves, peppermint leaves and cacao nibs. Guests can book Cacao Massages, which are prepared with antioxidant-packed cacao beans grown on-site. The open-air rejuvenation area also hosts yoga sessions set in the forest surrounding the lodges.
