Troubled singer Amy Winehouse is looking for a house on the island she has been on since late last year as she battles heroin and crack cocaine addiction.

She was seen hunting for homes with her dad Mitch - who rushed to the island after Amy's hospitalization last weekend - looking for a little place in the sun.

The estranged wife of Blake Fielder-Civil plans to split her time between the island and another new home in the leafy suburb of Hadley Wood, North London.

Amy Winehouse in St. Lucia: Rest and relaxation personified.

A Wino pal revealed: "Mitch and Amy have been looking at property while he has been in St. Lucia. They saw a few potential places this weekend."

"Amy loves it in the Caribbean and being away from it all has helped her hugely in her fight against drugs... She has been drinking and smoking cannabis but is still a million times better than she was in Camden."

Her family think the best way to keep her out of trouble is to have a house in the suburbs and a place in the Caribbean where she can totally get away.
