St. Lucia

Pros: Staff is phenomenal, food is plentiful and tasty, resort is lush and truly beautiful.
Cons: Pier Restaurant service was painfully slow, unusual for this resort-bad night maybe?

My fiancee (now husband) and I searched for the "perfect" resort to vacation and marry, deciding between two islands, the Turks & Caicos and St. Lucia. To keep this short, we decided on St. Lucia and haven't regretted this decision at all. The flights ...

Pros: Scenic, picturesque, many tours and activities
Cons: Very expensive, underdeveloped

My wife and I spent our honeymoon in St. Lucia at the Jalousie Hilton Resort & Spa. We wanted someplace more quiet and secluded than the all-inclusive "spring-break" atmosphere of the Sandals Resorts and others in the North end of the island. We chose ...

Pros: One of the most beautiful islands in the Caribbean.
Cons: Food is expensive and not too good. Accommodations are ramshackle for those on a budget.

We spent about a week on St. Lucia in Jan '05 and it was one of the best islands we were on. My wife and I aren't typical package tour travelers, so we just showed up on New Year's Day and hoped for the best. St. Lucia is a high, volcanic island that ...

Pros: The Resort's STAFF, The RESORT, The FOOD, The Island, and it's beauty.
Cons: A select FEW unpleasant Finer Dining Staff members.

As my way of saying thanks to others who have taken the time to share their experiences (the Good, the Bad & the Ugly), here's our story. The good far eclipsed the bad in our experience. All are detailed here. The wife & I spent 8 days at this ...

Pros: No work, all service, dreamy place!
Cons: Having to leave

For a chance to kick back and be completely catered to, this is the way to go. Our honeymoon here was superb and relaxing, as all we had to do was be there. Overall the food was delicious and plentiful, the staff is pleasant, thorough, and sometimes sig ...

Pros: Service, location of hotel.
Cons: Distance from airport.

We went to St. Lucia for our 25th Anniversary in November. We chose Sandals because it was a couples only resort. There are 3 Sandals in St. Lucia, and after some research, we settled on the Grande because it was the newest and biggest. I am pleased to ...

Pros: Beautiful, secluded, lot of nice locals, different
Cons: 14 hr travel from Chicago, safe or not to go out on your own?

Since strangely? there is no category in Hotels/Resorts for the Sandals Grande, I have opted to put my review here, since obviously it is on the lovely island of St. Lucia. Let me start by saying as a resident of Chicago, getting to St. Lucia is no eas ...

Pros: great food, drinks, people.
Cons: none.

We just got married May 17, 2003. For our Honeymoon, we choose the Sandals Grande St. Lucian. We have both lived in Boston for about four years now and used to party pretty hard. Now we are mellowing out and wanted a resort that was tropical and relaxing...

Pros: A Romantic Paradise setting with Spectacular Views.
Cons: Very underdeveloped outside the resorts.

If you've ever seen the twin Pitons (mountains) of St. Lucia featured in many Caribbean advertisements, chances are the picture you're looking at was taken from one of the rooms at Ladera.

The Ladera Resort is perched 800+ feet above the sea...

Pros: Extremely Friendly People, Excellent Healthy Food, Great Beaches, Great Weather, Too many to list
Cons: Pesky mosquitos

My fiance is Lucian. He was born in St. Lucia and most of his family still lives there. In August of 2001, he sent me to St. Lucia for 2 weeks with his oldest daughter and one of his sisters. It was a vacation I will never forget and it is an...

Pros: Scenery
Cons: PRICES, Food, Activities, Beach

St Lucia was probably one of the most unique sceneries we have seen. The Piton's are truly amazing..especially when you take the helicopter ride from the airport to the hotel...which we HIGHLY recommend.

We went in Early Jan 2003, and...

Pros: Beautiful island with great weather and fabulous hotels.
Cons: I think it rained one day. We caught up on our sleep.

We were really looking to be pampered as part of an almost two week honeymoon. We choose Saint Lucia because of the beauty of the island and the international draw of the clientele.

We chose Le Sport because we received excellent reviews from...

Pros: There are places to go to get AWAY from SANDALS
Cons: They ruined our Weddingmoon, dirty, cockroaches, nothing like the brochures!

Please do not trust this resort with your Weddingmoon unless you want to regret it for the rest of your life.
The was absolutely no concierge service in the concierge suites, cockroaches scurrying in the bathroom, bugs in the freezing cold personal...

Pros: Incredible view, great snorkeling, the perfect get-away spot
Cons: Not for those who want a lot of convienence and night life

We did a great deal of research looking for the perfect get-away spot for out honeymoon. Our criteria included relatively small, good snorkeling, a nearby rainforest, and a lot of relaxing solitude. The name "Anse Chastenet" kept popping up in every...

Pros: Scenery, People, Food,
Cons: Not that I can recall

We have just returned from Rodney Bay after spending Easter. My self and my wife booked last minute for a long weekend, and our travel agent managed to get the last room available at the Candyo Inn, a simple friendly 10 or so room hotel right in the...
