Sandals Grand St. Lucian

 Last month my husband and I traveled to St. Lucia. It was our first time visiting this island. In the recent year, I have had many requests for couples wanting to vacation there. I needed to experience this island myself. Sandals Grand, St. Lucia was the resort we decided on. There are three Sandals properties on the island each of them beautiful in their own way.

It was a one and a half hour drive from the airport to the resort. There was a constant view of the ocean, mountains and the locals - even driving thru part of the rain forest. Upon arriving to a new destination, I love just taking it all in.

 

This island is full of many activities to enjoy such as zip lining, catamaran cruises, a tour around the Pitons, hiking, volcano, the Botanical gardens and so much more.

 

Right away, I fell in love with the size of this resort - not too small but not too large. It offered just the right amount of amenities for you to enjoy during your stay there.

 

The dining was very enjoyable and everything we had was great. This resort offered dining options that were more casual. The pub for lunch right on the beach or for a more formal experience, the Italian restaurant or their Butler exclusive restaurant called Gordons.

We started our week in a Lagoon View Concierge room, which offered room service, a full mini bar, balcony and a sitting area. The last two nights we were upgraded to a Rondoval Suite with private pool and whirlpool. This room was amazing and not missing a detail.

The included water sports were endless: kayaking, hobie cat sailing, paddle boarding, snorkeling, diving, water skiing and a glass bottom boat tour. You could experience something new every day. For me, I enjoyed paddle boarding every day. It was my first time and loved it!

 

All good things must come to an end and this time our Butler walked us

to our private transfer in a BMW, all guests enjoy this service when having a butler.

I will be back one day to visit this island as it really made an impression. When I think of my clients visiting this island, it is great for so many: the outdoorsy person, beach lovers, honeymooners and destination weddings. I am excited to help you plan a vacation to St. Lucia!
