The 40 Best Resorts in the Caribbean: 2024 Readers’ Choice Awards

"Located on a powdery white sand peninsula, Sandals Grande St. Lucian seats its guest on the edge of Rodney Bay, the calmest waters on the island. Here, Over-the-Water suites built in Balinese style with glass-floored pools reveal the marine life below. For guests wanting more than the view of the life aquatic from above, the resort offers access to its waters to PADI certified scuba divers. Divers from all over the world travel to St. Lucia each year to witness some of the world's greatest reef communities and shipwrecks in balmy, crystal-clear waters. Experiencing one of the world's most comprehensive professional diving programs is a part of the all-inclusive package at this resort. Beyond the water, the resort offers land sports ranging from beach volleyball to croquet, table tennis to billiards." - CNT Editors
