Sandals Grande St Lucia-Thanks for your message and interest in our Sandals experience. In spite of the major drama with my passport falling off my car (such a retard!!) the entire trip was wonderful. I have never been treated so well or so graciously anywhere in the world as the folks there in St Lucia treated us. They had upgraded us to one of those Rondevals (I owe you forever if you were in any way responsible) and we lived like royalty!!! Since it was her birthday, the first night there the butler came in with baloons, champagne, and did a bubble bath with rose petals....incredible.....the honeymooners couldn't have been treated any better than we were. Again, if the Sandals staff upgraded because one came available because of Tori's birthday, kudos to them!! And if you had anything to do with it, thank you from the bottom of my heart.I definitely want to spend a week there, in one of those Rondevals in the future...perhaps Tori's graduation next year. I will get with you and book really early. The food was superb wherever we ate.....breakfast in the room each am.....mid afternoon snack....We never had quite enough time to tour or do much anywhere but the Grande, but with staying in the unit we had(7009), we never had to. The dip pool, hot tub, outdoor shower, misting spray ....and our view of the beach and Ft Rodney were incredible right from out place.From when we checked in at the Concierge, baggage, transfer from airport to the Grande....and back on mon....all was first class or better. I made sure to meet the manager as we left and commended the entire staff.Yes....it is an expensive trip, but the island, the people, and the resort are well worth it.....best trip ever!!!.
