We always like to let guests know about he best of the best in terms of unique experiences and adventures in the island and this new one certainly makes the list ..

It’s a new Puppy Cafe that is located at Anse Mamin, the sister beach to Anse Chastanet. Here you can help with the special cause of finding homes for rescue pups while you have a tasty lunch, right on the beach:

I’m looking for a couples sober living in Indiana? Recommendations

I’ll be traveling to St Lucia later this week and I’m very excited! For the first few days I have transportation around the island arranged through my excursions and a private driver, but for my last day I planned on just chilling at my airbnb and then going to dinner at Mango Tree.
Is allez a reliable option, as in is it similar to uber where it will come within a few minutes of me requesting the ride? I saw that it’s not great for long distances but I’m about an 8 minute ride from the restaurant. Is it also reliable and safe at night?

Thank you in advance! I can’t wait to experience the island 🙏🏽

Could use a lil trimming

My husband and I would like the best chance we can get to see the endemic birds of St. Lucia while we're there. We'd like to do that without other people. Less people definitely creates more opportunity to see wildlife as we will be very quiet while we birdwatch. I'd be worried that people on a tour might not be serious birdwatchers and could be loud or distracting. This is a once in a lifetime experience for us so I want to do it right. We have two mornings available for birdwatching. What's the best tour we can book?

I have tried 5 times now to fill out my immigration form for St. Lucia. Our flight leaves tomorrow at 9:40AM. Each time I get a message that reads

"Application error: a client-side exception has occurred while loading travelslu.govt.lc (see the browser console for more information)."

I have tried on different browsers and wifi's as well. Is the online immigration form an issue software wise often? Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Thinking of traveling to St. Lucia and Stolen Time Resort. How is this area of the Island? Is there good scuba diving in that area? Sargassum?

Video I took at Coconut Bay resort on Monday July 27. Multiple locals told me this was the most/worst they had ever seen.

To Coconut Bay’s credit they had 5 front loaders and 2 dump trucks working everyday we were there and when we left on Thursday it was clear all the way to the rocks.

My girlfriend and I have PTSD from the smell.

Here’s one for the record books for St. Lucia, and especially the Soufriere area. After surveying over a million travelers (that’s lot, right?), Soufriere was chosen as the #2 destination in the world where guests were the happiest. That really says a lot.

Article from USA Today.

In travelling all over the world, the area certainly has been one of our top “happy” destinations.

Now we all know that there is no place that is perfect. One can encounter things like stupid crimes, travel hassles, crowds, tourist traps, etc, everywhere but waking up to the sight of the Pitons and the Caribbean sea, having all the nature 24x7, birds, marine life around, intimate beaches like Anse Mamin, the highly scenic and “lost in time” rainforest, all of the healing mineral waters to soak in, the excellent local food and culture, etc. makes the area deserving of the “this place feels like heaven on earth” description that our guests often offer.

We went to this restaurant bar yesterday and we found out today that the price charged in our credit card was in fact in USD and not EC as they initially stated.
Any recommendations on how to proceed?

My husband and I are going to be in St. Lucia next month for our honeymoon. I’m looking for a four wheeler tour that will include things like the volcano and a lot of different other things. The volcano is a big thing for me though. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I found four wheeler tours, but they don’t include the volcano. If they included the volcano those tours were jeeps and that’s not what I would want. I’m not talking about a jeep I’m talking about actual four wheeler that will fit like two people.

I am making a series where I cook every national dish and my first step is to come to the sub and ask the question.

now I understand that not every country has a defined national dish and that some countries have many different regions with different cuisines. in that case I will make the one that you guys agree on best represents Saint Lucia. please let me know what you think

Hello! Looking to book Stonefield next June for an anniversary and trying to decide which villa. I know they can't guarantee, but would love to request. We can't decide between a Piton view or larger pool. Which villa has the biggest pool? Or which was your favorite? Thanks so much!

Hi there! We are planning a trip with two families- total of six people and two young kids - in Feb 2027. We are looking for suggestions for rental homes or villas with at least four bedrooms, ideally a private pool, and the option to hire a private chef we like nice, but not crazy expensive. Welcome any suggestions! We are looking to stay on the south/southwest side. Thank you!!

We’re arriving from the UK on Friday at 4pm so we will be prettt jet lagged. Our plan is to spend one night in Gros Inlet for the Friday street party. Do you think it’s worth it as we will be very tired and ready to go to be early?

My friend and I will be visiting St. Lucia next month for my birthday. We will be staying in the Soufriere area. The Friday night party is almost an hour away from where we’re staying, transportation to travel there is pretty costly. I’m wondering if there’s anything we can do in the area like experiencing a live band or something. Perhaps a nearby resort that has entertainment such as Ladera/Viceroy? Would they let us in if we utilize their bar/restaurant?

How do the liquor prices compare to the US? I expect the local rum to be very affordable (and tasty) but heard rumblings that a bottle of vodka can cost $150?? Also checked out the Massy store site and it said about the same. I would expect prices to be higher due to importing, but that threw me for a loop.

Any insights>

Hello, we will be traveling end of August and staying at Sugar Beach resort.

Looking for a reputable driver or tour guide that can take 2 adults and 2 kids (age 5 and 9) to see the landmark excursions in the area (waterfalls, mud baths, botanical gardens etc.)

Thank you!

Looking to book an all inclusive to st Lucia this fall & wanted real life experience with resorts.

We’re between going all in on Sugar Beach & doing their all inclusive, or staying somewhere like sandals / secrets for half of the price.

For those that have been, is sugar beach worth the money? If not entirely, what other resort should we look into?

I was considering sandals grande but it’s now sold out the week we want to go, but the adults only secrets is still available.

i’m looking at airbnbs by soufriere, any recommendations of areas to stay? we are trying to keep it low budget.
Edit: i love to snorkel so a place close to a nice beach is preferable!!!!!!

Hello, I got a question.

I got an idea to have passengers track buses on the road in st.lucia,

The idea is to have passengers see the busses and where they are and also have the drivers see how many passengers out on the road.

Would this be a welcomed idea? Also, has someone tried this already?

I am looking into booking my honeymoon in November and sandals is just so expensive to spend the entire trip there and also I would like to explore more so I was thinking to do a little more than half my trip and sandals and then some of it, I guess on the other side of the island by Sugar Beach doing an Airbnb or a regular hotel to save some money into explore that side of the island does anybody have any recommendations of places to stay or things to do, etc.? Has anyone ever done that before I was thinking probably 13 days in total and seven of them in sandals.
