From the beginning stages of the trip planning process all the way up to our last morning there, Steve and Danielle were incredibly friendly and so helpful. The greeted us upon arrival with a cold beer and a delicious meal, and from that point on, we felt right at home. We rented the Cottage, which is the larger, free-standing room... More

I have stayed in alot of good guest houses over the world but this is miles ahead of the rest. Nothing is to much trouble for Steve and Danielle. The food for evening meal is not only fantastic but cheap as well. I will be certainly coming back in the future. Alan A More

“Carribean Gem”

We recently stayed in St Lucia for a wedding and were lucky enough to be staying at the boiled frog guesthouse. We are frequent travellers worldwide, and have stayed in many different properties, but can safely say that this is the best place we have ever stayed. The place is beautiful, a stones throw from the beach and a short... More

“Like an all-inclusive at hostel prices”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

The Boiled Frog is run by Steve and Danielle Unruh, two young Canadian expats who tired of suffering through northern Canadian winters. They are cheerful, always helpful and have a slightly quirky sense of humour. Steve, an aspiring novelist, relates that a lady in a supermarket checkout line once accused him of being Jesus. Danielle watches all the cooking shows... More

Our experience at the Boiled Frog was fun and relaxing. Danielle and Steve were awesome and made us feel very at home from the moment we met them. The rum drinks (I can't remember the name of them) were delicious and enough of a reason to visit on its own. On top of that, the nearby beach is beautiful and... More

St Lucia's motto is "Simply Beautiful", they should add "Simply Amazing" for the Boiled Frog !
