St Lucia Rendezvous vs Sandals Halcyon |
|
I'm looking into an April Honeymoon and am trying to decide between Rendezvous and Sandals Halcyon. I like the All-Inclusive and Couples Only themes and they seem pretty similar. It seems like there's more to do at Sandals and I can visit the other resorts, but the room facilities look out-of-date. Rendezvous seems to have nicer rooms, but there are only 2 resteraunts and no mini-bar in any of the rooms. Does anyone have any pictures of the rooms at Rendezvous or Halcyon, especially the bathroom area? Thanks for the help. Report as inappropriate |

jschimiz, This is somewhat of a reprint of a post I did previously: I found these pictures on pbase.com of the Grande Luxe Ocean View room at Sandals Halcyon. This is the same room category we stayed in at Halcyon in 2001. The only updates that have been done to these rooms since our visit, have been a new wall paint/color, they are now a pleasant green color.
These pictures should give you a pretty good idea of what the rooms and bathroom (Deluxe Room, Premium Room or Luxury Ocean View Room) will look like. All the rooms at Sandals Halcyon are basically the same (other then location on the property), with the exception of the top category "Honeymoon Beachfront Concierge Room" affording a bit more space for a love seat and the mini/fridge/bar in the room and a peaked ceiling. The bathroom counter should be a bit longer also. The second story rooms of all other room categories also will have a this peaked ceiling. Some say this gives the room a larger feel. The only room category that has a mini/bar/fridge at Halcyon, is the " Honeymoon Beachfront Concierge Room" None of the rooms at Halcyon have room service. First picture below, is of the view from the "Grande Lux Ocean View Room" this is building # 9 on the Halcyon map. Our "Grande Lux Ocean View Room" was in the building to the left in the picture, we looked out over the lawn, we had no Ocean view even though we did pay extra for this room :-(. www.pbase.com/jmalmquist/image/16304988 picture of Grande Lux Ocean View Room and Bathroom below.

Thanks for the pictures, they actually look pretty good, or at least better than some of the reviews made them out to be. Report as inappropriate | ||||||
