Independent hotels in Castries, St. Lucia

"First time in Saint Lucia, was breathtaking! I loved our resort! We went as a couple for my birthday and everything was amazing! Although it is a family resort, we still enjoyed as a couple because by the time we were done at the beach or excursions, the kids were either eating or in bed. Late night swims we had the pools to ourselves. The beach was empty and peaceful during the day which is where we spent most of our days ! Bar on the beach multiple bars in the resort including swim up bar! Buffet food was decently good, the Caribbean restaurant Calabash on the resort was DELICIOUS!! I also liked the jerk hut on the resort! There were so many pools—the resort was huge! The workers were very helpful and friendly! The people of St Lucia were very friendly. We left the resort to do some excursions which were amazing. We did zip lining, the waterfall, and Sulphur springs and mud baths! My favorite was the waterfall! Keep in mind arranging rides to explore the island off the resort is expensive around 200USD for there and back, but definitely worth it! Also had a birthday reservation dinner at Dasheene which is located at the Ladera Resort. It was breathtaking and the most beautiful dinner I have had. Coconut bay resort was exactly what we needed and I loved how it felt like we had it to ourselves! We definitely recommend and would go back! "

"We loved every minute of our stay at the landings. The room and facilities were clean and beautiful, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. We would love to come back!"

"St. Lucia is beautiful and the Villa Beach cottages were great. Full kitchen and roomy space right on the beach. Friendly people. Beach is clean and quiet. "

"Really liked the accessibility to the places around. "

"Fantastic week away with family. First time in Caribbean and this was a perfect place to go. Food was fantastic and as expected for a resort of this type. Would recommend Diamon Club for the private pool area and beach though didn’t find the butlers overly attentive though we didn’t press them to do things for us repeatedly as it didn’t feel right. Would return and would highly recommend."

"Simply speechless. Beautiful hotel with service and amenities to match. One happy family. "

"The scenery and greenery was very lovely. The island is absolutely gorgeous covered in flowers and beautiful sites. One thing to be aware of is the very windy roads so if you’re motion sickness sensitive be aware !"

"This was our first Sandals vacation and it did not disappoint! The resort was so beautiful and the staff went above and beyond to help. The food was delicious and there was a great variety to choose from. "
