Question: Has anyone ever stayed at this resort in St. Lucian?

Question Description:
The Sandals Grande St. Lucian Spa and resort? In the Ultra Luxury Beach Rondoval Suite w/ Private Plunge Pool and whirlpool? If you have I would love to know what you thought about it and if you had any suggestions on whether you would recommend staying there or not? If yes why and if not why,please I need some help deciding on a Honeymoon spot and so far this is my top choice!Thanks for any help given!Also would you recommend your favorite place to stay while traveling to these places? I really would like all- inclusive, I hear that is a much better deal if you drink and well I drink! And it seems soo much easier to have all food and drinks paid for! I like the idea of knowing it's all paid for- except for the extras we do.

Answer#1: Sorry haven't stayed there, but have heard good things about it, also about smugglers cove. Try trip advisor they have plenty of hotel reviews with pics and a very helpful st. Lucia forum. Contrary to the previous poster I enjoy St. Lucia and find the people to be very friendly. I just returned from my second trip there and had a wonderful time. The Friday night jump off is something not to be missed, the music is good, people friendly, and the fish is excellent. St. Lucian's love to party. There are a lot of beautiful sights to see on the island and the locals really try to make tourists feel welcome.

Answer#2: I haven't stayed at that resort but I've seen it and been around St Lucia. I find the whole island to be very depressing. It is a very beautiful island and a great botannical garden that Napoleon's Josephine gave to the people. Touring the island by helicopter is cool. And some great restaurants. But the people have about 48% unemployment and it shows in their attitude. Everyone looks miserable. Dasheen is a fabulous restaurant to eat and see the sunset (make a reservation). I didn't care for the island near as much as other islands I have been to and wouldn't go back. Have you looked at Tahiti? Fantastic place for a honeymoon. Takes a good chunk of money though. Bora Bora or Huahine or do both. Maybe even Vahini Island Resort for two nights, then Huahine then Bora Bora. You will love those places. About 10 to 12 grand for 10 nights would cover everything.. St Lucia has "Jump Up" street dances at night and very very loud music that the locals do and last al night because too many people have no reason to get up in the morning. If you want no crowds try the Bahamas, like Eleuthera, rent a house on a beach where you will see no one at all probably. Great honeymoon for just the two of you. Super friendly people. My vote is Eleuthera or Tahitian Islands for a honeymoon.
