Sandals Grande St. Lucian

We had a wonderful stay at Sandals Grande St. Lucian. We were lucky enough to stay in the updated rooms. The furniture and decor was beautiful. Jasmin, our room attendant, did an amazing job and left a sweet inspirational note every day. The activities staff was excellent especially Nyah and Nevill. They brought the energy to the activities around the pool each day. The nighttime entertainment was excellent! Especially the Water and Fire show. We were blown away by the talent! Part of the resort was closed due to construction, but you would have never known. There was some construction noise, but other than that everything ran smoothly. All of the restaurants were open, the spa services were still offered, the bars were all open, and the pools and beaches were not affected. The actual spa building was closed. The massages were done outside. I was Leary of having a massage outdoors, but it was wonderful. Cynthia made me feel at ease and did an amazing job. They would also come to your room for some services if you preferred. I wish I could remember more names to give shoutouts to because there were so many wonderful people from bar tenders, wait staff, room attendants, etc. it was an excellent vacation and I would highly recommend it!!

I would give this resort 5 stars if it weren’t for the guy on the beach “Big K” who scammed some old ladies in our wedding party. Paid $1100 for 7 of us to do the Rum and Chocolate tour, but we only got to do half the chocolate tour and missed the rum tour. Driver showed up 30 minutes late! Driver took 2 hours just to get us to Castries and another 2 hours back to Sandals.

Imran was the best bartender, he was not just a bartender, he became our friend…we are forever thankful we got to know him, he taught us so much about the island! He was always friendly and created the best drinks! Imran, always remember “bless her heart”

During our stay we were guest at Sandals La Toc but we had the great fortune to have dinner at the Bombay Club at Sandals Grande. The General manager Della John should be so proud of the hotel and all its staff as the meal was one of the most authentic and delicious that we had in St Lucia. We were so lucky to have 2 Indian chefs, Sundar Singh & Harbeer Singh cooking the most delicious food. The poppadum came with chutneys and a yogurt dip. The samosa, lamb chops, chicken tikka and fried fish were absolutely delicious. Front of house we received a very warm welcome from Harish Ahuja who you could tell had years of hospitality experience and as we had overeaten on the starters was kind enough to allow us to take a short break by the bar outside the restaurant. The other staff Denia Baptiste, Amanda John, Selma Philbert and Brittany Joseph were all so friendly and attentive, I didn't even notice that they had brought me another beer when I finished the one I had. I think together they are a dream team and I would highly recommend anyone staying at any of the Sandals resorts in St Lucia to make this a must visit on their trip.

If you’re getting photos taken during your visit, be sure to ask for Ansel! She was incredibly kind, friendly, and made the entire experience so much fun. She kept us engaged the whole time and captured the most beautiful memories we’ll treasure forever. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer—highly recommend!
