I was asked to be at a friends wedding in St Lucia back in '06. The couple had booked a Sandals Hotel, and had indicated that I should stay there, although I was a single travellor.

I had previously worked in the Caribbean, and was familliar with Le Sport and the then sister hotel La Source on Grenada which I had day visited many times, so for me the choice of Le Sport for my stay on St Lucia was the prevebial "no brainer"

I was not dissapointed, my two weeks at the hotel were the most relaxing two weeks I had spent in a long time, ironicly, the worst part of the whole break was the visits to the Sandals hotel for the wedding celebrations!!

As a single travellor, I have found that your choice of destination can be limited, or you can be hit with excessive single room supplements (which on all inclusive resorts, I don't understand!)
At Le Sport however, the single travellor is welcomed, and the level of attention from the staff is very high.

For me, Le Sport ticked all the boxes, I was able to play as much golf as I wanted, and then spend lazy afternoons on the beach, and then maybe have a massage before afternoon tea. Although I didn't try the Tao restaurant, the main restaurant suited my time keeping and the food was in fact very good. Although my room was spacious, I had upgraded from a standard to a deluxe, it was showing signs of needing a refurb, it was however confortable.

I found the entertainment in the then beachhouse a bit naff, but if anything, this added to the fun.

In summary, St Lucia, great island, Le Sort good hotel, met some really friendly & nice people, would go back tomorrow if there weren't other places on my list.

Six of us have just returned after ten nights at Le Sport and we all had a brilliant time. There was a wide age difference in our party .My daughter 25 is pregnant my youngest son 20 and there were no problems for anybody. The food is great, the rooms beautiful and every single member of staff couldn't do enough to make our stay amazing. We can't wait to get back there. We would recommend the Grenadines trip we had a perfect day treated like royalty on a catamaran with just 8 guests it felt like a private charter. We hired a car for the day it takes ages to get fron a to b but it was a great experience. How anybody could be unhappy with Le Sport is beyond me it's a little piece of paradise.

I visited this wonderful resort over the Easter holidays. I would really recommend it for singles, girlie groups, mothers and daughters and couples. It's a great place to chill out and relax and to sample plenty of activities. I love to keep fit and everyday there were plenty of classes for me to choose from including pilates, body pump, stretching, toning, step aerobics etc. The food is superb, very fresh and lots of seasonal food on offer, one definitely won't go hungry here. My only complaint of the place is that there are quite a few cats loitering around in the many restaurants. Apart from that complaint, I really loved the place and felt rested and rejuvenated after my stay.

We had our wedding at Le Sport on 3/11/08 and loved the place. We actually were originally staying at the sister property, Rendezvous, (which we were VERY disappointed by but that's a whole other review). After spending 4 out of 10 days at Rendezvous, we rented a car and checked out Le Sport and fell in love with it. The staff was very eager to help us and moved us (and our wedding) without issue. We stayed in a remodeled ocean front luxury room right on the first floor. It had a beautiful view of the beach and the room was very nice and I have no complaints to speak of. The beach, unlike most other resorts we saw, was very secluded. All beaches are public in St. Lucia, which is not a big deal during the week, but on the weekend they can get quite crowded. Since Le Sport's beach is harder to get to and more secluded, there was hardly ever any locals there. The beach is also quite beautiful and calm (unlike the beach at Rendezvous which was quite rough with cloudy water). There is also a lovely reef right in front of the beach that offers good snorkeling and scuba. In fact, Sandals brings their guest over to the reef by boat daily (if that tells you something). Scuba lessons are offered for free at the resort and I recommend taking advantage of them. If you like long walks on the beach, however, this is not the place for you as the beach is not too long (approx 1/4 mile). That said, St. Lucia would not be the place for you at all since most of the beaches are relatively short from what I could tell, with the longest one being the beach at Rendezvous which was only 2 miles long or so. Besides the great beach, the property is beautiful, the food is good, people extremely friendly and helpful, and the spa services are great. Speaking of the spa, you have a treatment included every day with your stay. Fantastic! I would recommend Le Sport mostly for couples. Please leave the kids at home. There were only a few there, thankfully, but you will find that most people come for a romantic holiday. Also, the beach allows topless sunbathing, another reason to leave the kids home. As I said, we had our wedding there, and the staff went out of there way to make it perfect. It was a perfect setting for a small wedding. I'm thinking hard trying to come up with something negative to say, but I can't think of anything. Oh, you may see a cat or two that lives on the property. They stroll around during dinner, but they are harmless and most people seem to like them. I suppose they keep the rodents away at least. One last thing, if you are an American, know you will be in the minority in St. Lucia. We found that most of the visitors were British or Canadians. Not that this is a problem at all, just pointing it out. One recommendation, although tipping is not required or expected, I found that service, especially on the beach improves significantly if you discreetly slip them a tip now and then. A few dollars will go a long way to ensuring you get a drink promptly from the bar or on the beach.
