Fond Doux Estate
Fond Doux Plantation & Resort
A centuries-old cocoa estate at the foot of the Pitons, offering tours from cocoa pod to chocolate and preserving an 18th-century plantation house.
Fond Doux Estate lies in the valley south of the sulfur springs, on the way to Sugar Beach. It has about 250 years of history and still produces cocoa and tropical fruit. Estate tours explain the whole process of cultivating, fermenting and drying cocoa, and you can taste homemade chocolate. The restored 19th-century plantation house has been converted into boutique accommodation, and the restaurant serves Creole dishes. It pairs well with the sulfur springs and Tet Paul on the same day.
