How close is Rodney Bay to Anse Chastanet? How long of a drive is it? Is it reasonable to stay at Anse Chastanet and party in Rodney Bay?

It's quite a drive between the two . The roads are very narrow and twisting. It would be over an hour...don't think it would be do able after partying...not on those roads .We rented a car a drove there but it was a day trip .

We stayed at Anse Chastanet Dec. 2005 and had a wonderful time. We did not go anywhere by car but instead took water taxis. They can arrange for you at the hotel, but we hooked up with "Dr.Feel Good" -- don't let the name scare you-- He said his real name was John, and he did a great job showing us around (and cheaper since the hotel did not take a surcharge)-- he even arranged a guide to hike us up the Grande Piton. Have fun!

It's quite a distance over pretty winding roads where there are no street lamps at night. For someone unfamiliar with the roads, I'd think at least an hour.

No, to your 2nd question. Depending on how long you're planning to stay, you might consider splitting the trip. Staying at the Royal Resort on Reduit Beach in Rodney Bay for a weekend and then moving on the Anse Chastenet for a quiet, more relaxed end to your holiday. Have a lovely time!
