Suesancy Posted October 11, 2009 #1 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Hi - have just been on the Ports of Call boards trying to find out about day passes to Sandals in St. Lucia. A couple of years ago people were saying there was a booth on the docks/in the port building(?) which was selling day passes at 50/60$ per person - instead of the price they quote - which is apparently 110$ per person!!! Huge difference....just wondered if anyone had been there recently and noticed whether they still do this booth - and if so what the prices are these days? Would really appreciate any information - thanks a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted October 11, 2009 #2 Share Posted October 11, 2009 We stopped in St. Lucia twice on our cruise in February and did not notice a booth selling Sandals passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travlnblueberries Posted October 11, 2009 #3 Share Posted October 11, 2009 We'll be going in feb. and I could let you know then. When do you plan on going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suesancy Posted October 11, 2009 Author #4 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Hi - thanks for the offer but we will be there on 6th January - so too late. I guess we will just go with the flow and take a taxi to a beach if there's no booth. Certainly not paying $110 each for it - but would probably have paid 50 or 60$. Thanks again - hope you enjoy your trip in February. Regards Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheffer Posted October 11, 2009 #7 Share Posted October 11, 2009 We bought a Sandal's day pass several years ago inside the tourist area in St. Lucia. There are a couple of different Sandal's in St. Lucia, and you can find out by contacting them directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisergal 1 Posted October 11, 2009 #8 Share Posted October 11, 2009 We were just in St. Lucia a few weeks ago, and didn't see anyone selling passes to the Sandals resort in the port building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suesancy Posted October 12, 2009 Author #9 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Many thanks everyone for your comments....am guessing from the most recent reports that this is no longer done. Will email them, as suggested, and see what I can find out. Thanks again for your assistance - much appreciated. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger The Mainer Posted October 12, 2009 #10 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I would'nt spend the money. Sandals is on Dickenson Bay. You can take a taxi to Dickenson Bay and there is a nice beach bar/restaurant right near Sandals. We have done this many times and the beach, food is great.

Roger The Mainer Posted October 12, 2009 #11 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Disregard the above message. I had the wrong Island. I'm thinking about Antigua. Sorry. Roger The Mainer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp20 Posted October 12, 2009 #12 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Hi, we were just in St Lucia on a 10 day cruise and it was everyone's favorite port. We were in a group of family and friends ranging from teenagers to 76 years old. There were 22 of us in all and we went on a tour called CORSOL TOURS it was $50 for ea. of us which we paid after the tour. We swam in a waterfall in the middle of a botanical garden, we took a boat to a private beach that looked like Fantasy Island with a bar and one side was a marine preserve where you could snorkel and the other side was a white sandy beach. We were fed local food that was amazing and we went to the Sulfur Springs and we were fed banana's right off the plants; the list goes on and on. It was the best tour we have ever been on in all our years of cruising. Please look them up, I found this tour through Cruise Critic and I'm so grateful that I did. It made our trip.

Did your trip involve land and sea? If land how long were you driving, I am a little nervous about the winding roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Ellen1 Posted October 12, 2009 #14 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Did your trip involve land and sea? If land how long were you driving, I am a little nervous about the winding roads. Hi there -- we took this tour a couple of years ago, and absolutely loved it. But the name is Cosol, not Corsol. The roads were kind of windy, and I wished I had worn my wrist-bands or taken some Dramamine. Also, related to the windy roads, Cosol was keeping a very close eye on the weather that day. Rain was expected, and a few weeks earlier, storms had washed out the one-and-only road from one side of the island to the other. People were stranded, but I don't know if anyone missed their cruise ship. Cosol wanted to make sure that didn't happen to us. http://cosol-tours.com/ You'll have a BLAST on this tour... :) Mary Ellen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellbon Posted October 12, 2009 #15 Share Posted October 12, 2009 i loved his tour. so much food and rum. I might use him again in 2011 just to eat. i sat up front and i was fine driving. Plus with all the stops I was never in the van that long. i wish we had more time at the waterfall as i never got in it.. had to wait forever to use the bathroom. he had to chance his beach as you can not longer drive into the resort if not staying there-must go by boat.
