St. Lucia
Hello all,
Been a while since I have posted in any Newsgroups. Hopefully this finds everyone well. I have a question about St. Lucia. My wife and I are looking to go somewhere different in the Caribbean. We have been to Jamaica a few times, having hit Ocho Rios once and Negril twice. We have stayed at The Grand Lido and Couples Negril in Negril and Couples Ocho Rios in, you guessed it, Ocho Rios. We have heard that St. Lucia is awesome, but wanted to get any feedback we can from people who might have already been there. We are looking at hitting the Sandals all inclusive resorts, which is also a first for us. I have always heard good things about them, but anyone also have experience with the Sandals organization? The resorts we are looking at staying at are Sandals Grande St. Lucian: http://www.sandals.com/main/grande/gl-home.cfm and Sandals St. Lucia Regency: http://www.sandals.com/main/lucia/lu-home.cfm. We are leaning towards the Sandals Grande, as neither my wife nor I golf. Both of these resorts look great, but we are hoping to go somewhere with people more our age, and where the nightlife is fun. We also want to get off the resort and see the sights. Anyone know how safe St. Lucia is? The last time we were in Jamaica things seemed a little shaky. Might have been because we just went to war with Iraq and most of the people we spoke with were pretty upset about it. Anyway, we want to get off the resort if possible, so the resort with the most to offer outside of the premises might also be a winner. I will leave it here as I have managed to ramble on long enough. I appreciate any help or feedback anyone can give me. Thanks Rob |

St. Lucia
Rob,
My wife and I stayed at Sandals in St. Lucia Nov of 2003 and had a great time. The Staff on the resort is very nice and accomidating. They have Shuttle busses running between all 3 Resorts on the Island so no matter where you stay, you can enjoy all 3 resorts. (They do not make you wear wrist bands so you are not treated diffirently depending on your sandals resort). As far as the Island, we felt very safe. Everyone is very friendly Scott |
