Live Well St. Lucia — Ownership, Not Extraction

The Plan

Tourism is 65% of this island's economy. Almost none of it is owned by St. Lucians.

The hotels along the coast, the flagship names on the shelves — most are owned by foreign chains and investors who fly the profit back out. An island that runs on tourism keeps very little of what tourism earns. We want to turn that dial back, one property at a time — buying boutique stays and running them on a written profit share with the people who work them, so the money stays on the island instead of leaving it. We're looking to 2027 to make the first move — the first, not the last.

Step one

One stay

Acquire a boutique property and operate it on a written profit-sharing agreement with the people who staff it.

Step two

Shared upside

Every property we run operates on a written profit-share with its team — housekeeping, front desk, grounds, kitchen — a share of what the property earns, not just a wage.

The point

Owned and shared

A growing set of stays where ownership stays on the island and the people running them share in what they earn. The team's stake is structured to grow with every property we add — the portfolio grows, their share of it grows too.

From Alycia

It took leaving to see it.

My family is from Vieux Fort, where my dad grew up. We spent a lot of time on the island as kids — then life pulled me away for the better part of a decade. When I came back at thirty, after ten years gone, it hit me all at once why people fly across the world for this place: the pace, the sun, the water, the healing, the sheer abundance of it.

So I started paying closer attention to how the island actually works — who owns what, where the money goes, and what stays. An economy built on tourism, with almost none of the ownership in local hands. That's the thing worth changing.

Follow along as I document it: the boutique stays we're acquiring, the people who run them, and the island itself — so you can come feel the abundance for yourself.
