Here is the story of a family that vacationed in St Lucia
My husband and 2 of my children (5 and 3) recently stayed at Sugar Beach a Viceroy hotel in St Lucia for our winter vacation. Sugar Beach is located in St. Lucia in the West Indies. Having traveled all throughout the Caribbean we were expecting the resort to be upscale and the beaches warm and inviting. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to be waited on hand and foot by butlers transported all around the expansive property by tuk-tuks and to have access to not only a pool in my villa but also an enormous pool practically empty each day of our trip.
More about the Sugar Beach Viceroy Hotel
Sugar Beach resort is nestled between the Piton Mountains with Gros Piton on one side and Petite Piton on the other. It?s located right outside of Soufriere which is the town Sugar Beach is in on the west coast of the Island. St. Lucia is known for its lush rainforests and mountains but no two more famous than the Pitons so we were nestled right in the center of the action. We really had no reason to leave the resort it has several restaurants some formal and some more casual and also has bars and lounges for evening entertainment.
They have a lovely kids club for the children to enjoy during the day and offer nightly babysitting.

Our villa was like a home away from home and gave us all of the comforts of home while treating us to unparalleled Caribbean beauty and warm calm oceans. The beach is a cove so it’s as beautiful as it is calm. The resort offers beachside barbecues, romantic dinners on the beach that your 24/7 butler can arrange. It’s all at the touch of a button. They really didn’miss a single detail.
What did you love about St Lucia?
The Rainforest Spa was a barefoot luxury at the highest level. My massage was invigorating and my wrap detoxifying. I felt like I was in Bali or Hawaii half the time it really was like NO other Caribbean experience I have ever had before.
We did leave the property to head to the waterfalls which were close by and they were amazing. The children enjoyed them. Most of the days were spent kayaking, on the catamaran, paddle boarding or taking the Sugar Cube the resorts pontoon boat from one side of the beach to the other. It was luxury at the highest level and you would be remiss to come to St. Lucia and not stay or at least visit Sugar Beach.
We did a dinner at Jade Mountain which was lovely and it happened to be the Blue moon that evening so the views were spectacular and the food was top rated and exquisite. Who needs the long flight to Hawaii when you can go to St. Lucia?
If shopping is your passion (and lucky for me it is) you will have a field day at By Rory a UK based clothing store offering up the best in Chic UK resort wear designs. I’ve been the envy of all of my friends with my gorgeous Beach cover-ups that they won’t be able to find in the US!
From craters to Sulphur Springs to waterfalls to fine dining there truly isn?t anything that you can’t find in St. Lucia. I need to go back because I definitely left my heart in St Lucia.
