We have been to 5 Sandals resorts and this is the first property we chose to rebook within moments of being there. The location is amazing; yes, a long ride from the airport, but an opportunity to receive a guided, almost private tour of the island and its beautiful properties and people. From the moment we stepped out of the transfer shuttle, we knew we'd be back. The lobby is exquisite, offering a multitude of seating types and alcoves featuring a variety of retail spaces, including a bar. The beach is long and beautiful, and the water warm and calm. Its white sands are surrounded by mountains. The adjacent national park includes Pigeon Island, an 18th century military site used in both World Wars. Climbing it was a joy, including the views of Martinique, a mere 25 miles from St. Lucia. We stayed in a butlered suite in a very quiet location resplendent with panoramic views of the mountains, the Caribbean, and the gorgeous grounds. Food is of high quality, especially Barefoot and Toscanini, and the service is outstanding. The Lucian people are happy, kind, service-oriented, and proud to call Saint Lucia home. The property is well-managed, including its hotel manager who brings his lengthy Sandals resume and quality insight to the property. He is a joy to speak with. Our butlers, especially Makaiah, are a delight and left us surprises on a daily basis with impeccable service in between. Despite meeting several guests who have returned annually to this property since it opened 23 years ago, never did we think we would book a return trip not even half way through the existing one. However, never had we experienced the Sandals motto for its returning guests until this stay... "Welcome Home."
