Sandals Grande St. Lucian Spa & Beach Resort ReviewThis is the best accessorized of the three Sandals resorts on island. The luxury resort lies adjacent to the causeway on the northern tip of St. Lucia, linking the "mainland" with Pigeon Island, with the Caribbean Sea on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other. Set on a landscaped 1-hectare (2 1/2-acre) lagoon, the megaresort occupies a site 10km (6 1/4 miles) northwest of Castries at Rodney Bay. With a private golden sandy beach, the most lavish lagoon-style swimming pool on the island, a state-of-the-art spa, and a choice of six restaurants, many find it hard to tear themselves away from the grounds. Even the least expensive bedrooms are spacious, with antique reproductions in an English colonial plantation style. The fourth-floor rooms have better views, service, and space, and are more comfortable overall. For the ultimate in luxury, ask for one of the two-dozen "swim-up" units with their own free-form pools and terraces. Facilities: 6 restaurants; 6 bars; golf privileges; health club; Internet; 5 outdoor pools; night club; room service; smoke-free rooms; spa; 4 tennis courts; watersports; deep-sea fishing; dive shop; rooms for those w/limited mobility Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.

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.
