Resort for a day

[jess98ac]

We're thinking of just doing a resort for a day while we're in St. Lucia. Can anyone recommend one where we could also book a couples' massage?

[jcwalk19]

I would recommend the Rensezvous or Le Sport- both do couples massage and reasonable day passes inclusive of all food drink, watersports. Rendezvous is nearest to Castries only 5 minutes in taxi, Lesport is in the north of th Island and takes about 20 minutes or so to get to. The Lesport has a wider range of spa treatments on offer (but lots of steps) and also has a marine reserve for snorkelling.

 

Have a grat time!:)

I'd also like to find a nice resort with a nice beach for our day in St Lucia. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[dabear]

we also would like to spend a day at a resort that has a nice beach and possible snorkling or water sports. Any suggestions?

Try Windjammer Landing - my family and I spent the day there whilst on holiday in St. Lucia and had a wonderful time. We had a lovely 3 course lunch, used the pool and the beach and its not too far in a taxi from Castries!

We're looking for a resort for our day in St. Lucia also. I don't think Sandals accepts kids. Does anyone know about Rendevous or Windjammer? And how to get a day pass? Thanks for your help!:)

Rendezvou is adult only.

What do they charge for a day pass at these resorts? Are drinks included?

[familyof4cruising]

Are these resorts for children also?

[familyof4cruising]

Has any one been to the Windjammer in St. Lucia ? How far from pier? Are children allowed? thanks

[familyof4cruising]

It's about 15 to 20 minute drive depending on traffic. Great five star resort. Any cab can take you there.

 

Are children allowed? Is it worth a day pass or just better off going to a beach? thanks

Jalousie Plantation has many of the things you mentioned - couple massage (we had the one in the private cabana on the cliff overlooking the sea and Pitons, beach, snorkeling, kids allowed. We said at the resort in December, so I'm not sure what they charge guests to come onto the property. The resort sits in between the Pitons, so the views are spectacular.

I am a timeshare owner at the Windjammer. Have been there 7 times and can answer most questions. First, it's about $16-$18 taxi from the cruise ships. The resort is perfect for families with children. The beach is beautiful and safe. There is Jammers restaurant right on the beach where you can get a great lunch. They have a terrific watersports activity center where you can rent windsurfers, sunfishes, pedal boats, and waterski. They also have a free snorkeling boat that takes you out at 2:00 for about an hour, however the snorkeling is not great. I have had the couples massage and can recommend it. As far as day passes, I can't help because I have done only land vacations there. I am going to email my contact person to see if I can give out her email to make reservations and see what's available for cruise ship passengers. Having checked out many of the other resorts on the island, I'm always happy to come back to the Windjammer. I feel it's the nicest resort north on the island.

SuzeyQ,

 

How long did it take for the Windjammer to get back to you? I have emailed them twice and have not gotten a response.

Also, did they tell you if you needed to make a reservation for the day passes.

Thanks,

Barbara

We recently went to the Windjammer and purchased a day pass with hopes that we could try waterskiing, knee-boarding, tubing and the bannana rides only to find out the the motorized water sports don't start until 4:00 pm. This was definately not worth the $20.00 taxi ride just to use the paddle boats and water tramoline. We went back to the reception desk and complained and they did give us the cost of the day pass back but it cost us another $20.00 to get back to the pier.
