A group of us are traveling to the southern caribbean on the Adventure of the Seas visiting Antigua and St.Lucia. Does anyone have experience delivering items to the Sandals resort in either area? Which is the more convenient? Thanks!

Just curious, what would you need to drop off at Sandals at either location. We are staying at Sandals in Antigua this January, do they have a donation program for local causes? I didn't see a program like this at Sandals in Nassau when we stayed there a year ago.

Sandals Halcyon in St. Lucia is about a 7 minute drive from the cruise port in Castries. Sandals La Toc is about is about 11 minutes from the port headed in the other direction.

Take a look at the website in Foremco's post. Pack for a Purpose is donations for school kids in needy areas. Sandals is involved as drop off areas.

I had never heard of this organization before. Thanks for calling attention to it. I will gladly participate the next time I am cruising to one of the destinations on the website!

Thought you would, but it was for A&L_Ont. :)

 

Sandals Antigua is about 11 minutes away, so there's not much of a difference between the Antigua and St. Lucia drop off locations from a driving perspective.
