Our Honeymoon
We had the best time on our honeymoon. The food was amazing. We had couple massages that I scheduled later on in the week. Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. The only thing we had that wasn't so great was Kelley's for dinner. It took someone a very long time to take our drink order, while everyone else was receiving their drink orders and someone taking our order, we didn't. It took someone about 15 minutes to do so and that person was someone's butler. Besides that, the food there was very good.
Overall, I would go again in a heart beat!
Elopement
We are so very happy with our stay! We decided to get married at Sandals Halcyon Beach & every detail was taken care of perfectly! The wedding team was amazing & made our day absolutely perfect. (Shout out to Elizabeth!!!) Then theu even continued to make the rest of our stay memorable. The resort was lush & beautiful. Loved the lagoon pool. Highly recommend this resort & if you are considering getting married...Halcyon Beach is the place to do it!
Amazing
Jeanson and jeaneve were amazing and i loved sandals best entertainment coordinators
Great experience
Much quieter than Sandals Grande, but I appreciated that, and it still has plenty of games & activities. Jean (entertainment) and Candia (bar tender) were two that really stood out, but overall all the staff was great.
Not as many food options as some of the other Sandals, but still plenty of variety for a week and all the food was good. I don’t recommend the returning guest dinner, as it’s very drawn out and not worth the bottle of rum.
The ocean water here isn’t super clear, so if that’s a priority for you, maybe check the Grande. Otherwise, this is a great option.
Exceptional 30th Anniversary Getaway at Sandals Halcyon
We had a wonderful time celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary at Sandals Halcyon, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, every staff member we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. The food throughout our stay was outstanding. We enjoyed dinner at Kelly's Dockside twice because we loved it so much. The service was excellent, and the menu did not disappoint. We started with the crab cakes and then enjoyed the swordfish and snapper entrees, both of which were incredibly fresh.
We also took advantage of the complimentary shuttle service and had dinner at Gordon's Restaurant at Sandals Grande St. Lucian. Dining at the end of the dock with beautiful views made for an unforgettable experience, and the food was absolutely delicious.
One of the main reasons we chose Sandals Halcyon was its relaxed and low-key atmosphere, and it delivered exactly what we were looking for. The beach and grounds are beautiful, well maintained, and offer a feeling of privacy that makes it easy to enjoy.
A special shout-out goes to Chris, the beach bar runner, who made our stay even more memorable. His friendly personality, exceptional service, and drink recommendations were fantastic. We even ran into him again during the Taste of St. Lucia night at the portable Rum Bar, where he specially crafted a guava drink for us that was absolutely amazing.
Overall, our anniversary celebration was everything we hoped for and more. We are already looking forward to planning our next trip, and Sandals Halcyon is at the very top of our list. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing, beautiful, and memorable getaway.
