Sandals Grande St. Lucian - All Inclusive Couples Only

We visited Sandals Grande St. Lucia this past February and had a lovely time overall, though there were a few areas that could be improved. The resort itself is beautiful, but we noticed some challenges with the beach chair system. By our third day, we realized that many guests were arranging to reserve their preferred spots early, which made it a bit difficult to find available seating along the beach. We also noticed the atmosphere felt quite busy, though this seemed more related to the mix of guests rather than the resort itself. We did our best to enjoy the various amenities, though we found that restaurant reservations worked similarly to specialty dining on a cruise ship and required some advance planning. The food was pleasant, though it didn't quite reach the elevated level we had anticipated given the resort's reputation. During our stay, there happened to be an annual staff celebration taking place near our room, which was quite lively and went on for a while in the evening. Despite these minor challenges, we truly appreciated the natural beauty of the island itself. St. Lucia is absolutely stunning, and we would definitely consider returning to explore other properties. The sunsets were breathtaking and the water activities were wonderful highlights of our trip. While the price point is on the higher side, we feel there's room for the experience to better match the investment. If we were to try Sandals again, we'd be interested in visiting the Halcyon property, which had a more relaxed atmosphere when we stopped by during our stay.

My husband and I spent our honeymoon at Sandals Grande Saint Lucia, and it truly exceeded every expectation. From the breathtaking views to the exceptional service, everything was perfect — but what made it unforgettable was the staff. Every single person we met went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Eddie, the pool guy, always greeted us with a smile and great conversation in the early mornings. Regina kept the good vibes flowing at the bar, and the nightly shows were full of incredible talent and energy — Neville especially had us laughing nonstop and made every evening a blast. But the highlight of our trip was Mauka. He brought us out of our shells, hosted the best pool games, and made us feel like part of the Sandals family from day one. He truly made our honeymoon unforgettable — we’ll be coming back just to see our new friends again! If you’re considering this resort, don’t hesitate — it’s paradise with the warmest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet.

This was our 5th stay in 4 years here at Sandals Grande St Lucian (SGSL). Clearly it has our hearts. Before visiting SGSL we were avid lovers of Sandals Emerald Bay (which is currently under renovation to become a Beaches). We’ve visited many Sandals and SGSL is by far our favorite. Tell Nevil that J&J will be back in February! I loved spending my free time playing the games at the pool, participating in the activities. Nevils laugh is contagious. I can still hear him laughing. I miss him already ❤️. We’ve become so comfortable here that many of the staff are now family. Sanjay, Asson and Heather we’ve known since 2021. Every visit we book the stage cabana. You can’t go wrong booking. For those, like us, who usually book a club level room…booking a cabana is a way to have your spot for the day reserved. Heather and Sanjay are the dream team for cabana butlers! Asson fills in when he’s not stocking rooms. They will make your day! It’s so relaxing to go to your cabana and not have to worry about a thing. They bring your drinks, snacks, lunch. All the things. And please don’t forget to tip them! They are excluded from the no tipping policy because they’re considered butlers. There is also someone else I’d like to mention….it’s someone who I’ve been privileged to get to know over the years. His name is Michael. He takes care of the beach, rakes and cleans everything up. Every time we visit, I visit with him. He’s wise beyond his years and so very kind. And the smiles he gives brighten up the darkest of clouds. Because of our first visit here in 2021 and first to the island of St Lucia, we ended up buying a boat and sending it down there to start our own excursion company. SGSL has made an impact on us…The staff, the property, the island…all for the better. Things to do while at Sandals Grande St Lucian: 1. Hike Pigeon Mountain…easy walk off the beach near Butches. The most amazing views. 2. Get a massage outdoors at RedLane. The sound of nature makes it all the more relaxing 3. Book a cabana! And tip the cabana butlers 4. Enjoy a night at the bar near Kimonos,Soy and Bombay. It’s a hidden gem with peaceful tree frogs and a beautiful setting. 5. Take an excursion and do the mud bath! 6. Relax…it’s your vacation after all! Thank you Sandals Grande St Lucian for yet another amazing stay! See you all again very soon!

We chose the Sandals Grande St. Lucian to celebrate our 20th anniversary, and staying in the overwater bungalow was a dream come true — but our incredible butler team made it unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we felt like royalty. Karen, Ellone, and Tamara greeted us with warmth and genuine joy, and from then on every detail was flawlessly handled. They surprised us with thoughtful touches — champagne on ice and private breakfasts and lunches served on our deck as the sun sparkled over the turquoise water. They anticipated our needs before we could ask — morning lattes at sunrise, favorite snacks and drinks magically stocked. Each day felt effortless and full of small surprises that made us feel celebrated and cared for. Karen, Ellone, and Tamara weren’t just amazing butlers; they became our friends and brought such kindness and joy to every moment. If you’re celebrating love — an anniversary, honeymoon, or just each other — there is no better place and no better team. Thank you for turning our anniversary into memories we’ll treasure forever. ❤️

My husband and I celebrated my birthday and to say that the employees were amazing would be an understatement! I have to shout out a few people that made this the ultimate week for me. Vernelle, Neville, Beverly, Jasmin, Jenna, klen and lisa among so many others were absolutely amazing. There was one woman at the front desk that wasn't very friendly but oh well. ( I believe she was the supervisor.) Also the staff at the spa was top tier. I forgot the name of the woman that gave me my massage but she was totally awesome! Even the general manager and the event supervisor were all amazing, so long story short the resort was cool but for me it's the people who make this resort MAGICAL! The food would be the only thing that fell short for me.

Absolutely love Grande St. Lucia. From the grounds, to the service, to the people and the entertainment team and staff! Special shout out to Leana, Neville, Casius, and Tameka. They were amazing!
