La Haut or Le Haut, literally means "the height" in Patois, a french dialect that is commonly spoken by St. Lucians. La Haut sits 770 feet above sea level on a hill overlooking Soufriere, one of the oldest towns in St Lucia.

Part of a 52-acre former coconut and cocoa estate, the Guest House possesses a unique history.

Nearly 100 years old, the main guesthouse was originally a cocoa house used for fermenting and drying cocoa beans picked on the estate. In 1995, the building was converted and refurbished into a 6-room guesthouse. The self-contained cottage is a refurbished copra house where coconuts were processed.

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.
