Calabash Cove Resort & Spa

Everything about this place was a dream. This was our perfect, secluded, romantic honeymoon spot! Whether we dined at the Windsong Restaurant, the swim up bar, or chose room service, the service was so friendly, quick, and top notch. Whether we had breakfast, lunch, or dinner choosing from the set menus or the daily specials, the food was amazing. Whether we got some sun and swam at the secluded beach, the infiniti pool, or in our own Waters Edge Cottage’s private plunge pool, the views were breathtaking. We never left the Calabash Cove for six days and had the honeymoon of our dreams.

We came here for the second half of our honeymoon on an all inclusive package. We stayed in a beach front cottage w/pool. In general the Calabash was great. The grounds were very well kept and the staff was very friendly and accommodating (with one exception which will be mentioned as one of the few negatives). The views and amenities were perfect for a relaxing stay, and there were kayaks and paddle boards that could be taken out at any time from the beach for some exercise. Cottage: our room was very nice. The sleeping quarters was air conditioned (which was a very nice reprieve from the heat and humidity), while the bathroom, open air shower and living room area, that could be opened up to the outside, were not. There was also an outside deck with a private plunge pool, hammock, a dining table and some lounge chairs. There was a well stocked bar, fridge and coffee machine in the living room as well as a large wall mounted flat screen TV we never used (since this room was not air conditioned and occasionally had mosquitos it would have been nicer if it was in the bedroom where things were more closed off to the outside elements). The living room did get very warm and would have benefited from a larger fan that could be operated during the day without turning the lights on (they were tied to the same switch) to get more air movement. However, the only real negative was the bed mattress. Despite the 5" thick memory foam pad on top, there were significant indentations on both sides that you sunk into. By night 5 both of us had very sore backs and found ourselves trading off sleeping in the middle of the mattress where there was much more support (neither of us are very heavy people). It was almost comical that the person in the middle sat 4 or 5 inches higher than the other. I did mentioned this to the front desk and they were surprised saying the mattresses were replaced a year ago...hopefully they buy better quality mattresses in the future. Spa and gym: We did not use the Spa so we cannot comment on that. However, we did use the workout facility which had some basic cardio equipment, free weights and a bench. If I'm honest they could use a cable machine or something to give a few more lifting options. The food: in general the food was good, but it was hit or miss on if it was "great". There was decent variety, but it seemed the best dishes were what was listed as the nightly/daily specials. 5 nights was about as long we could go without the menu starting to feel a little repetitive. As we were all-inclusive we did not pay that much attention to pricing so we cannot comment to much on that. The drinks were all good...again, all inclusive precluded us from worrying about price. The staff: In general, the staff was all great. They were all very friendly were great to talk to. We tipped on everything (mainly because we felt it was deserved and we are accustomed to it), but never felt they expected it. If we had any general questions about the island or a request they were super accommodating. However, there was one exception who for some reason seemed to have an issue with us from the very first interaction we had with her. We would watch her have friendly interactions with couples and groups (as all the other staff did) and then come to us and be extremely short and unwelcoming. For the life of us we have not been able to figure out why as we were always polite, had no special requests, and tipped well on everything. It was very confusing to us especially when the rest of the staff was so nice and welcoming. We wouldn't let this deter anyone from going here by any means, but it did sour a bit moments of our stay for sure. Overall, we would definitely recommend Calabash's all inclusive package for a relaxing stay in St. Lucia.

We went in November 2024 to watch T20 cricket, W Indies vs England and stayed at the magical Calabash Cove Resort and Spa Our hotel was beyond good, the food was exceptionally tasty and the St Lucian people fabulously friendly and welcoming. What a superb experience, especially the Hotel Head of Security

We LOVED Calabash Cove. The resort itself is lovely. Intimate, clean, peaceful and plenty of amenities. Spectacular views, great food and gentle waters to swim in. The true jewel in the crown though are the people that work there. These are people who are clearly valued and enjoy their jobs. Warm, generous and hilariously funny. We will 100% be back!

We wanted peace and privacy and that’s exactly what we got. What a wonderful experience. The staff were so kind and always responded quickly. The view from our cottage was just was to die for. The beach was just a few steps from the cottage. The private pool was the cherry on top
