Thank you for watching and commenting. I will say that some people had great reviews, but it was not good to my standards and on the hotel review page I found 3 other reviews that stated they got food poisoning during the same time I was there. I believe there are better hotel options. I hope you find a great place and have an amazing time!
apart from the room service taking years and the crazy drive to the resort, I seriously enjoyed every second of the experience. The people are super friendly and the vibes are just chefs kisses.
Very informative vid, thanks for keeping it real! You had me hollering at the food part 😅 Now im second guessing my trip there because it's expensive and I want value for my money 😌
🤣🤣I'm glad it was informative. They fooled us on the room service!! 🤣🤣They got better the second time around. Definitely see what your expectations are for the amount of money that you are spending and see if it can be met. I hope you have a great time and get your money's worth.
Hello! It was a perk just from my Marriott status, but honestly it wasn't anything over the top. There was a building that we had access to where they had free snacks (finger foods) and drinks and a pool area that was only for the Diamond Club members. Other than that I didn't see any other benefits.
Great detailed review. I think everyone has different expectations for resorts so I can see why this missed the mark on somethings for you. I've been to St. Lucia and it is a great country and i had a great time, but I was at a different resort.
Oh yea, I love Sandals. I went to Sandals Dunn's River in Mar 2023 the opening day. I have a vlog on that as well. AMAZING! I might visit St. Lucia again and stay at Sandals! Thanks for watching!
How come you didn't go to Sandles in St. Lucia? I ask because Ive been researching like crazy and the Sandles seems sooooo dated....the whole property, rooms, layout of the property seemed sooo large and choppy. Maybe Im wrong.
Hello, thanks for watching! The only reason I chose the Royalton is because I wanted my Marriott points. Also, I didn't know about Sandals in St.Lucia because I didn't look at any other resorts besides Marriott😔
I love Sandals. I went to one in Jamaica recently (a vlog is up for that) and it was amazing. However, when I look at the rooms in their Bahamas locations it looks dated as well
I personally would not say there again. I would probably try a Sandals Resort. However, we had a good time, but I've experienced better at other places and that's what I'm basing my review on and the price.
Went in April, we loved it. I guess it's what you put into it. Why room service when there are so many choices in the restaurants. I went for a vacation not to stay in the room. We were Diamond Club our butlers Olivia and Marlon were the the best. Loved the people! Loved the excursions, we didn't jump off the boat they had drop down stairs. We were well taken care of but are not very needy (Canadians) Hope this helps.
Thanks for watching. I wasn't looking for help, I was giving MY review/experience. Why room service? Because on vacation sometimes want to relax and instead of going out, we would rather stay in the room abs have the food brought to us as this is a n options. I like to take advantage of the things that are offered and paid for (Americans). Im glad you had a better experience than we did!
I went last year and did not experience anything you did , must be a new chef. Everything I ordered room service was superb 👌 👏 🙌🏾. Now I'm scared to go back next year. 😮😂
The food in the restaurants was good. The first room service was trash! The second time was better though. Hopefully we just went through a rough patch
Yes, I was disappointed in the service big time. Hopefully they see all of the reviews and adjust. I plan to vacation on St. Lucia again, but to another resort.
@@SocialWifeMelissa Hello, thank you for watching. I didnt use any points to upgrade. Im an Elite member so they automatically try to upgrade my room when I check in somewhere. However, they said they could not upgrade my room because I had a swim up room so they gave me the Diamond Club access instead of a room upgrade....I hope that makes sense😁
I’ve been debating this Royalton for 2 years but after hearing you say the standard of Sandals which i been too this a 3.7 I’m good and your food talk was 😂
🤣🤣It wasn't horrible, but I wouldn't recommend it. Since you already experienced Sandals...just know they are not on Sandals level🤣. I could've believe the room service, but it was better the next day. I hope you have a great time regardless of where you stay😁
Thank you for your review! I just booked but now I am glad I watched this. I agree 1,000% about Sandals. They set the bar so high, it's kinda hard to compare!!! I will continue my search!
I hope you have an amazing time! I'm thinking about visiting St. Lucia again and try another resort. Is there anything you recommend doing that I didnt do?
Hi, we are planning to go to the same hotel and just curious what's the difference between "adults only" and the other section with kids. Is it worthy to pay some extra $$$ for "adults only" and also do both share same beach or they are separated ?
I'm not entirely sure about the rooms, but the resorts are literally right next to each other. There was a sign next to one of the pools that states its only for the adult side of the resort. I honestly don't think we went to the beach at the hotel...sorry, its been months and we go to different places and I tend to get them mixed up. 🤣
😂😂😂😂screaminggggg..I really hope you have a great time. I've looked at other reviews and they had different experiences so I hope yours is on the great side. That first night of room service was not it, but it was better the second time😁
@@Cedes1424 it was great! The food was amazingggg, the views were good. The vibes were great. I loved it. Only bad things were it’s up in the mountains far away from everything, the water wasn’t as blue as I’d like, and I paid for diamond club but didn’t really use the perks because it was inconvenient.
Did you enjoy the vlog? If so, go ahead and subscribe to my channel. Jamaica is up next😎
i was about to book and then I saw your video! thank you so much! You saved me so much money and agony!

I'm happy for your experience! Unfortunately, for most of the people that we encountered, they were not super friendly.
Thank you for sharing!! I just booked!!
I hope you have an amazing time!! Stay hydrated!
Great hotel
Great ppl
Great food
Rooms bars pools Ocean were Great...been there twice love the place..
I'm glad you had a great experience! Me, not so much.

You can do it again. plan ahead..visit all the Caribbean Islands or do a Caribbean criuse..yea..glad you are safe and had a great experience..
Thank you! Yes, planning ahead is now a priority.
Great video! Can I ask which block you stayed in, looked like 4 or 5? Thanks
Thank you! I'm sorry, this was a year ago and I don't remember the building number, but I out the name of the room in the video. Hopefully that helps
Yass, sound like they were very chill lol.. the room was very nice and very informative info to know, tfs sis really enjoyed watching
St Lucia is a vibe
Did you elect for the Diamond Club and if so, was it worth it? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Sandals sets the bar real high 🥰🥰
Yes they do!
Sandals sets the bar real high 🥰🥰 If you haven’t been try Sandals Dunns River❤️❤️
Oh yea, I love Sandals. I went to Sandals Dunn's River in Mar 2023 the opening day. I have a vlog on that as well. AMAZING! I might visit St. Lucia again and stay at Sandals! Thanks for watching!
come to think of it i did see your Sandals vlog it made me excited to visit last month 🥰
@trenaceclarke6888 thank you!
Girlll they got y’all with the food, like whattt!! What they advertising was nun like the menu, smh.. ok back watching 🤗
Right!! I'm like hold on na..what is this🤣🤣
Did you fly into to UVF? How long did it take you to get to the Royalton Resort?
Yes. We flew into UVF. It took about 1 hour and 45 minutes to get to the resort.
How come you didn't go to Sandles in St. Lucia? I ask because Ive been researching like crazy and the Sandles seems sooooo dated....the whole property, rooms, layout of the property seemed sooo large and choppy. Maybe Im wrong.

Soo now it’s like do I send the hotel a strong email about reviews I’ve seen then book or book somewhere else that don’t have rooms that are as nice

This was intended more for the person questioning the comment about St. Lucia sucked without any explanation.
Very nice ❤
I will say this is the best hotel here in 🇱🇨😍
I wish I could agree, but it was a 3 star at best in my book. I plan to visit again and stay at Sandals.
I went last year and did not experience anything you did , must be a new chef. Everything I ordered room service was superb 👌 👏 🙌🏾. Now I'm scared to go back next year. 😮😂
The food in the restaurants was good. The first room service was trash! The second time was better though. Hopefully we just went through a rough patch
Yes, I paid $65 in August for a private shuttle
I knew we should've booked a private one with Trip Advisor, but I thought a taxi would be the same
I hear Sandals St. Lucia is awesome, so next time, if you decide to go back, go to Sandals and book private transportation.
@@the_ambitious_lady I wish I knew before I went. I love Sandals and they provide transportation for free
Who did you book through sis?
I'm torn between Sandals La Toc or Royalton St Lucia
We just went there a couple weeks ago. Service wasn't great, food was okay but not great.
Yes, I was disappointed in the service big time. Hopefully they see all of the reviews and adjust. I plan to vacation on St. Lucia again, but to another resort.
THANKS FOR SHARING VERY INFORMATIVE BEAUTIFUL RESORT👍🏿 BUT THE ROOM SERVICE😂
The room service first time around was crazy!🤣
Totally different.
Your room looks amazing so thankyou for sharing, what room number was you please?.
