St. Lucia VS. Aruba???

What do you all think??

I am looking for an all inclusive. And I was told by some that Aruba has great places to eat and is Beautiful. The weather is also perfect. But it would not pay to do an all inclusive.

But I was also told that St. Lucia (Sandals) is great. Its all inclusive. But I would have to worry about the weather...

DECISIONS!!!!!

Your input would be great

Re: St. Lucia VS. Aruba???

I've heard really good things about the Sandals resorts on St. Lucia, especially the new one. I think there are 3 Sandals resorts on the island and you can visit and use the amenities at any one of them while staying at one Sandals. So you can dine at any one of their 12 or so restaurants, use the different beaches and pools, etc. and never get bored.

We are looking into St. Lucia for our HM because the island has so much to do - rain forests, volcano, and lots of beaches and water sports.

Good luck with your HM planning!

Re: St. Lucia VS. Aruba???

Either one is a great choice-but just be careful with Sandals resort in general. My girlfriend and her husband went in June to Sandals in Turks & Cancos (spelling??) anyway, it was terrible. Horrible food and service-almost came home early.

Ohhhh I am in love with Bucuti's web site and I check the web cam everyday! Please tell me all the details! Did you stay in the new Tara suites? Did you do the meal plan? Are there activities walking distance? Thanks.

Re: St. Lucia VS. Aruba???

Definitely ARUBA I just love aruba that is where my FH proposed to me at. We stayed at the Wyndham Resort beautiful and food was excellent every place we ate at was delicious. The whether is amazing because they are just below the hurricane belt so it hardly ever rains and if it does it is like a sun shower and that is it we are going back for our it was just romantic!
