bkava1969's Full Review: St. Lucia
My husband and I went to St. Lucia for our honeymoon in Dec 02 and were disappointed with the overall value of the experience. We stayed @ Ladera Resort which was breathtaking yet short on amenities. Since the resort is so remote (2 hour drive from airport)you are almost forced to rent a car to get a feel for the island and it's people. This is pricey and full of dangers as the locals are such con-artists who rely on tourism dollars for anything and everything.
When leaving the island, no one informed us of the 'exit' fee that must be paid before they will let you board your flight; it must be cash and only in their currency- so save your EC dollars in anticipation of this ridiculous fee that is designed to extract more cash from you!
