Excellent and comprehensive review of those hotels and resorts , makes any travel accommodation for StLucia a breeze thank u for the fantastic video and for sharing
thanks so much!!
Looks like an amazing place to visit. Love that some are so well designed! Thanks for posting.
Thanks!
Great video! Excited to plan a trip - please post more videos!
Thanks - you can count on it - will post Tulum and Costa Rica soon
The Ladera resort is my number 1 dream place to visit ,hopefully ill visit one day
The view is about as good as it gets anywhere in the world
Please let us know what you think, and… in our community tab, we’ve posted a short video about where we are headed next, check it out!
Great review! I will be going there in January and my whole eye was set on Stanfield Villa until I watched this. At least I know I have options now.
So glad it was helpful. Figuring out where to stay can be a lot of work - hopefully less so now. Stay tuned for Tulum, LA, Paris and Costa Rica posting soon.
Thanks for your comment
Can’t wait
Have fun!
I cannot understand why only 6k Subs on this channel.
thanks... that's nice... we are still fairly new
What are your thoughts on Sandals Grande in Rodney Bay?
We try to avoid chains like Sandals as we are focused on more boutique experiences - so we didnt have that on our list. We did stay at Cap Maison - and we have a video about that - that's in Rodney Bay. If you want something a bit lower cost and that has an all-inclusive option - then there's Tu Kaiye - we have a video about that too. Enjoy St Lucia
Great video!! You didn’t get to Anse Chastanet?
I did not... maybe this isn't fair but the furniture in the online pics looked so bad I couldn't justify the cost.
About Jade Mountain Resort? Have you ever stayed there? I hear is one of the best in St. Lucia. Thanks...
Hi Victor - no sorry we didn't get there
Did you go to Calabash Cove? I am wondering who "ripped you off" on your excursions
I did not go to Calabash Cove that I remember - have fun
Looking at going for the month of February 2023, so I was wondering about airb+bs or short term rentals. Any recommendations?
nope sorry we only cover resorts/hotels
Last time I went , there was a huge beach resort called "LaTok". Is it still there?
Not that I ever saw
@@SwankGuide It was a Very Large Holiday Inn Resort. Last I heard, it got purchased by Sandals, with the title "Regency" but still with the name "La Toc", which is also still the name of the Road leading to it. There was another Holiday Inn north of the Airport, and it Also got purchased by Sandals. It's now named Halcyon Beach.
@@MatthewFordVictoria Stayed at The Halcyon Beach back in 1992 and it was great..a pity is was changed to a Sandals chain..
It seems to me that older folks wouldn't feel all that comfortable on islands that are very hilly not close to amenities like we see in St. Lucia. Even Jamaica isn't for us older folks trying to avoid noisy crowds, ships, and looking for a quieter atmosphere with amenities. We could be left with only Barbados.
I'll try to get to Barbados soon
Which resort did you visit that was disappointing and not shown?
Hi Nab838. It was the Fond Doux Resort - have fun in St Lucia
Ummm I want to go to all these places...
let's go
No East Winds?
The beach is pretty protected - wind was not an issue when I was there in Juanuary
Jade mountain?
Fair enough... I was there in Januray and Jade Mountian runs $2,500 a night... I dont think it's worth it but can't say for sure.
Jade is the best
Do you think it's worth $2000, and often $3000 or $4,000 a night? Yes the architecture and view are great - but at that price point the plastic outdoor chairs and chain hotel furniture give me pause. Would love to know what you love about it though. Thanks
@SwankGuide wondering the same!! Could it really be worth that much? Especially with some of the points you mentioned. The views do look top-notch, though....
