East Winds St. Lucia- All Inclusive

We split our stay in St Lucia, 4 nights in the south and 6 nights further North at East Winds. We are not really beach people but we loved East Winds. There was enough to do as well as time to relax. We stayed in room 27 which was lovely, it had a sea view and the feeder on the balcony attracted lots of birds including hummingbirds. We took part in the yoga and pilates, we had massages and I had a facial. We went out on the hobie cat a couple of times, the paddleboards and used the snorkeling gear (although not too much to see). We did the excursion to Pigeon Island and the walk with Simeon on a Tuesday morning and the rum tasting was brilliant. The quality of the food and wine was exceptional and all the staff are so lovely and very helpful. We loved every minute of our stay and would love to return again one day. Thank you for such a great holiday.

You won't find a better place to stay. Anywhere. This little Boutique-by-the-beach location is exquisite, caters to your every need, is safe, friendly and surrounded by lovely gardens. Where-ever you walk you'll see something beautiful, whether it is the hummingbirds, some new flower, or the Beach itself. Very private and relaxed, the sunchairs are extremely high-quality with excellent padding and are under fixed-post thatched umbrellas. Waitstaff will gladly bring you any drink or snack, and they loved my new Mocktail! (ask for La Zo and see if you like it too) The rooms have everything you need, and the sunken-in showers are a delight. Bed is super comfy, good sized spaces for hanging, luggage racks, bathroom spaces etc. On arrival my bed and the whole room and bathroom were decorated with flowers grown on site and changed a few times for fresh ones. It was a magical holiday. I wish I could live there. The restaurant is excellent and I'm told lots of people from nearby resorts come just for the all-inclusive drinks and meal menus. Very fair price. The restaurant staff are very accomodating. You'll love the changes in menu every day and the fresh fruit blends they offer at breakfast. I didn't want to leave the grounds at all but I did take a tour on a yacht which went down to Soufriere, and we had the mud experience and the waterfall and then snorkelling in the afternoon, with lunch provided by East Winds kitchen. Far better than I was expecting, it was a truly lovely day. The musical entertainment is quite varied and I enjoyed every performer, however, they have a Pianist who is most extremely talented and makes any evening a highlight of your stay. Just sitting in the Hexagonal Bar, with the Book Exchange and the Orchids can be a pleasant way to spend the day, but I confess the gentle tides and the pink lounge chairs called me again and again. The water is truly emerald in colour, and due to the little bay, easy and gentle to swim or float in. The Yoga room which caters to pilates etc is a huge, wooden decked- open space and I enjoyed the walking tour of the Garden with Sylvanus very much indeed. I am counting the days until my return. I won't stay anywhere else in St Lucia.

Small boutique resort and perfect for a quiet holiday. One restaurant with a fresh menu everyday. Staff were friendly and made you feel at home. Would definitely to back and recommend.
