Do you think that St.Lucia-Sandals Grande-would be a good place for a wedding/honeymoon?Wht R sme things to do
MY FIANCE AND I ARE PLANNING A WEDDINGMOON TO SANDALS ST. LUCIA. I WAS JUST WONDERING ABT SOME OF THE EXCURSIONS AND OTHER THINGS. HOW WAS THE SERVICE? ROOMS? OVERALL STAY? THANK YOU
The cool thing about Sandals in St. Lucia is that you have access to all three of their resorts on the island, no matter which one you stay at. There are free shuttles that leave regularly throughout the day.
That said, my wife and I loved our honeymoon at the Sandals – Halcyon Beach resort. It is the smallest of the three (Grande is the largest), and that was nice, because we got to know the staff and other guests over the week we stayed. By the end of the week, half the resort knew us by name! I imagine the experience at Grande is much different, but that may be more up your alley if you are not as social as my wife and I are.
There are ALWAYS activities going on, so you are free to do as much, or as little as you want. We typically alternated days – one day we would participate in all kinds of activities, the next day, we just lounged at the pool (and enjoyed the many swim-up bars), napped, and did newlywed stuff (wink).
We did a few excursions, and we enjoyed them all. Some are free, but most of the good ones you have to pay for. They fill you in on all the details at your orientation meeting (the first morning of your stay). If you participate in some of the “parties” they have, they often have contests with prizes, and you can win a “pay” excursion. That’s what we did – we played their version of “The Newlywed Game” and won two tickets on a sunset cruise, which was a blast!
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. I wish you both the best!
