This resort is frequented by many young people on honeymoon who can be very disappointed when they get here. It is the poor relation of the 3 Sandals resorts i.e. the others are larger and their facilities are much more luxurious. In fact Halcyon is not luxurious at all. It is fadded glory and the Bayside restaurant is a hut... more

My husband and I booked a 5 night stay at the Halcyon from 8/30-9/4, and overall, were very pleased with the trip. The ride from the big airport was long & windy, but our driver was very nice, the van was air conditioned, and we stopped along the way for a Piton & the view. Once we arrived, check in... more

We stayed here for 10 nights in Feb 2010 for our honeymoon, it was simply a gorgeous place to be, St lucia is amazingly beautiful and Sandals Halcyon is superb. If a quiter more intimate and friendly vacation i what you want then pick this one over the other 2 on the island, as they are very large, very faceless... more

My wife and I made our second trip to Sandals Halcyon (5th trip to a Sandals Resort) in June. Our room was luxurious and romantic. The property is covered with lush, tropical fauna. There are beautiful flowers and plants around every corner. The views of the sunset off of the beach are fabulous. The PIer Restaraunt extends over the water... more

My wife and I recently visited St Lucia and stayed at the Sandals Halcyon. This is a beautiful and quiet resort with lush gardens and a great staff. Melissa Alexander was our concierge and she was absolutely remarkable! She made sure all of our plans were made and the times were appropriate for my wife and I. She went out... more

We had high expectations after hearing from others how wonderful Sandals resorts are. We were somewhat disappointed. We had one of the updated rooms, and we were very impressed with it. We booked the cheapest room possible, but we got a room in a great location. It was right between the pool and the beach, near the beach bistro. The... more

My fiance and I debated for quite a while as to where we should get married. After much discussion, we decided to get married on Pigeon Island in St. Lucia. We went with Awesome Caribbean Weddings, and they were wonderful! Our photographer, Bill Mortley, did an incredible job making sure we had a vivid, unique record of our amazing day.... more

When we think back on this vacation it was our favorite! It had things both of us look for in a vacation!... more

We are a couple from washington state on our first tropical vacation. We also planned to get married there, just the two of us. I'll just start with the wedding. The wedding was "free" with the 7 nights stay, but they do charge you a $500 "goverment fee". Either way, cheap wedding. The wedding coordinator was very sweet and helpful,... more
