HM Review - Sandals - St. Lucia Regency - lots of pics
I finally got around to uploading pics from the honeymoon. Here is a brief review on our fantabulous vacation ![]()
We flew into Miami and had a two and a half hour layover - NOT FUN...once we got to St. Lucia we then had about an hours drive from the airport to the hotel again NOT FUN...but as soon as we got there we were relaxed. We stayed in the Concierge suites and our butler met us in the lobby with a much needed tropical drink.
He unpacked our bags for us and made dinner reservations for the week at all the restaurants at the resort that needed them. Through out the vacation our butler would surprise us every night when we got back from dinner - from a bottle of champagne and candles on the table, to a rose petal bubble bath surrounded by candles and soothing music playing in the background...
The resort was super -clean, our room was great and we had an amazing view of the ocean and the ocean bluffs. There are three pool areas on the resort - we stayed at the one near the Italian restaurant the whole week. The drinks at pool were yummy - Sandals Angels and Banana Daiquiri’s - four or five of those and you suddenly feel like the calm pool turned into a wave pool - at least I did![]()
- the bartender was very generous with the liquor...![]()
The food at the resort was probably the most disappointing. Then again I don't know what Caribbean island has GREAT food - don't get me wrong it was ok - it just wasn't good GOOD. Out of the 7 restaurants that were available - I would say 2 were good...the rest were 'ehh' - the Caribbean restaurant - The Piton was the best - SURPRISE SURPRISE, followed by the French restaurant - La Toc...
They offered a lot of excursions – but they all were pretty much the same or a combination of two or three different trips. We did the land Volcano and Rain Forest one. What a BEAUTIFUL island…the scenary is breathtaking…it was raining throughout most of it…but once it stopped the island turned this incredible shade of green…DH and I were in awe.
Overall we had a great time...we met some really nice couples from all around the world, we relaxed, we ate, we just soaked it all in. Anyone who is going to the Sandals Regency in St. Lucia - you are in good hands...the island is GORGEOUS and the people very friendly![]()

just try and get a direct flight into the island – avoid the layover in Miami or see if you can fly into the airport closer to the resort – the drive is NOT fun…long and winding roads…remember the Dramamine
