How to Choose a Sandals Resort in St. Lucia

Sandals Grande St. Lucian

There are three all-inclusive Sandals resorts on the island of St. Lucia. Each offers you something a little different. By evaluating details about your personal likes and dislikes you can choose the perfect location for your trip to this tropical paradise.

Instructions

1. Decide what size of resort you would like to visit. Sandals Halcyon is small resort and the oldest of the three, while the others on the island are larger and more spread out.

2. Choose the characteristics you prefer when it comes to the surrounding waters. The Grande St. Lucian sits on Rodney Bay and has calm waters with very few waves. The other two resorts have waves that gently crash against the shore.

3. Decide how important pools are during your vacation. The Grande St. Lucian has the largest pool of the three resorts, and its pool also provides a view of the beach and ocean.

4. Determine what type of resort layout most appeals to you. At the Regency, the resort is spread out with some rooms residing on the cliff side. The grounds of the Halcyon are compact and intimate. The Grande is moderate in size and covers a larger area than the Halcyon.

5. Choose the best location for you based on the above criteria. Then visit travel Websites and forums to read reviews of the property and ask questions to determine if this is the perfect location for you.
