Sandals Grande St. Lucian, built in a traditional British Colonial style, is set on an isthmus with the Caribbean Sea to the immediate North and the tranquil Rodney Bay on the South. The venerable, 200 year old Fort Rodney sitting atop a nearby hill to the southwest protects the bay and would appear to also protect this manicured beachfront resort. Every guest room and suite at Sandals Grande St. Lucian features a private balcony or patio. Each spacious room includes air conditioning, telephone with data port, iron/ironing board, coffee maker, satellite TV, clock radio and the private baths include a double vanity, heated mirror, make up mirror, shower/bath, hair dryer, and telephone.
Sandals Grande St. Lucian combines historic British flavor with the unparalleled service, this hotel has been redesigned to mimic the British Fortress at Pigeon Island (a National Park).
The resort`s 4,800 square foot ballroom will be the largest and most technically advanced meeting and banquet facility on the island. The resort also offers three restaurants, three bars, evening entertainment, two pools, and tennis.
The Sandals Grande St. Lucian is approximately 6 miles (10 minutes) northwest of the town of Castries, on a Causeway between Pigeon Island and Rodney Bay. It is 10 minutes away from SLU, and 90 minutes from UVF.
