St Lucia Jazz from St Lucia’s best Villa Rental
St Lucia’s most Luxurious Villa Rental, Akasha has just seen the line up for this year Jazz Festival and it is truly full of stars and quality – a little like the villa.
The line up over the week has international and local artists who will perform across the island including Pigeon Island where the main attractions will be. This is just down the road from the Akasha – Luxury Villa Rental a mere 6 minute drive away. Not only that you can actually see the stage from villa!!
