Almond Morgan Bay ReviewBeefed up by a $6-million renovation, this all-inclusive resort sits beside Choc Bay on an 89-hectare (220-acre) site 4.8km (3 miles) north of Castries. Very sports- and entertainment-oriented, with a well-organized children's club, the hotel is suitable for singles, couples of any persuasion, and families. Although there's another Almond Resort on St. Lucia, this is the better of the two, thanks to its renovation and its devotion to fine dining. Mass-market buffets here are rare. Sit-down meals in any of the on-site restaurants focus on artfully small portions and an innovative cuisine. The club's core is a wooden building with decks overlooking a free-form pool. The accommodations are in three- and four-story wings, each pleasantly and comfortably outfitted in English colonial furniture. The grounds are artfully landscaped and seem to descend in a funnel-shaped cone toward a complex of swimming pools and a sandy beach. Each features one king-size bed or twin beds, plus patios or terraces. Expect an enlargement of this hotel during the lifetime of this edition, with the addition of at least another 100 units.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
