Sandals Grande St. Lucian Spa & Beach Resort

Frommer's Review

This 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; 5 outdoor pools; night club; golf privileges; 4 tennis courts; health club; spa; deep-sea fishing; dive shop; watersports; business services; room service; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility.
