The BodyHoliday

I was completely wowed by the bodyholday when i went last month. The whole package of the all inclusive food, drinks, sports and treatments was fabulous. The staff really looked after everyone. The quality of food and wine was great and there was a great vibe across the whole place. My only issue was that my stay wasn't long enough! Can't wait tp go back

We were fortunate enough to be able to come back again and the holiday was great. The room, the activities, the treatments, the staff, the bodyguards - were excellent. TAO was better this year than before - the lamb was great. The food in other restaurants is ok. We tried sailing this year and our guides were good and very patient. We also enjoyed the welcome reception/cocktail party and the chance to sample some different treatments for booking the next day. The sunset cruise for returning guests was on a catamaran this year and not the pirate ship but was good and we met some lovely and interesting people. The weather and the views over the lovely, blue sea are excellent. We will not be back next year but hopefully will be back at some point in the future.

This is a great hotel, and it is hard to define what makes it special. But I think it is the staff. They are well chosen and trained. Service is key, not just when you ask but they pre-empt your needs, and it is always with a smile and a friendly greeting. The ethos of the staff carries over to the guests, many come back year after year and it creates a very open welcoming atmosphere, especially if you are on your own. There are too many activities to list, and they keep extending them. It does not matter if you are a beginner or a fitness freak, they have the facilities and skills to accommodate you The guest. I like the sailing and this year they have a girl instructor in the Boat Shed who competes for St Lucia in the Olympics as well as some very sexy new boats in the bay. Also liked the Yoga, they did one lesson that was all about technique, which was 1st class. Most treatments are included, but you can upgrade to more specialist therapies for example they now have a resident osteopath Maor who is good and does a range of therapies. I could go on forever, food - great, cocktail - fantastic etc etc etc. You just have to try this place for yourself.

This is the ultimate holiday for giving your body a treat. With a spa treatment every day, a stunning location, great staff, amazing all-inclusive food and drink, it is hard to think what could better!

Just returned last night from a 5 day stay with two other couples from South Carolina. We had an incredible time. The best thing about Body Holiday is the people. The human resources dept, must be the best in the world. The staff knows your name after a day. They are always smiling and striving to help. This includes everyone from management to the people who clean the rooms. The fitness staff is the best I have ever seen. Instructors are kind but push you to your limits. There is something for everyone...from walks to water aerobics to high intensity interval training to very advanced spin classes. After that you can have a rejuvenating massage, have a delicious light lunch and then back to Abs class or maybe just lounging on the beach with a Pina Colada. About 80% of the guests were from the UK and that was a big plus. Their genuine friendliness is only exceeded by the St. Lucia natives on the staff. More Americans should come here. It is a well kept secret My wife likens the Body Holiday to a famous spa and exercise/diet resort in Arizona and that is quite a compliment. All ages are here and we felt very comfortable being 70+. Special thanks to Charms, Sophia, Donna, and the fitness staff.( esp. body stretch and Pilates and HITT. One example will show what I mean about the staff. Two couples in our group were lounging in the quiet upper pool. A member of the scuba staff walked by and mistaking him for a waiter, one of the ladies asked for four cocktails. He could have said "I'll get you a waiter or not my job description." Instead he was back in 5 min., smiling with 4 cocktails. In my 5 days, there were many things like this that prove this is a very special place. Yes, the AC did go out for a day and they moved heaven and earth to get it fixed. Cannot wait to return and will be communicating with my new friends from the UK.
