-> Check In The check-in process was a bit awkward. The bell boy asked for my credit card saying it was company policy and it was only to keep on file. After a lengthy wait, he returned with a $300 authorisation saying that it had been taken in case of any damages to the room and/or equipment. This should have... More

When we mentioned to friends that we were going to stay at Rex Resorts in Rodney Bay, they advised us against it saying that the place is not what it used to be. We had never stayed at Rex Resorts in St. Lucia so we decided to give it a try for just 1 night. There are two Rex resorts... More

I heard of the Oriental, an upscale Asian Fusion Restaurant and was immediately intrigued. When I did a stakeout during volunteer work, I was awestricken by the beautiful décor and the menu. It truly represented Asian Fusion; Chinese, Indian and Thai cuisine. Upon perusing the cuisine, many of the items infuse influences from Singapore and Malaysia. Though pricey, it is... More

We traveled with a 13 month old daughter and we loved the place. First, I will start with the arrival at the airport. The airport personnel and security officials are very friendly and the whole airport check in process was very smooth and quick. A mini-bus came to pick us up and we were on our way to hotel within... More

My husband and I just came from Rex yesterday after spending an all inclusive weekend. This is the first hotel I've been to as a local and received such excellent customer service. We were greeted by Buju who was just so much fun. Being right on the beach was a plus. The room was good enough, ac worked great and... More

The hotel itself is clean, the food is good(mostly local cusine, which was great!). Staff, were helpful and pleasant. Nice atmosphere, as the hotel is... More
