Rendezvous

The resort is 1.3 hr drive from the airport. Also there’s a cemetery next to the resort, not a very good view if you want to make pictures for your memory. There’s no TV in rooms at all. They say it’s what they’re about, “Stolen Time”, but I think it should be optional. The room is good, the bed and pillows are comfortable. We didn’t see any daily activities besides pool aerobics. This was the first resort in 20 years where I didn’t play beach volleyball, despite a nice weather every day. The beach volleyball is on their schedule at 5pm, when everyone already left the beach, I asked several times to move it up the schedule but I guess it was easier to keep it at 5pm, less work when nobody’s there. The beach is public. There’re no private beaches in St Lucia. So on the weekend when schools are close, you’ll see plenty of local kids running around and swimming right in front of you. The food was good. I just wish the restaurants had more choice. There’re just 3-4 dishes to choose from for both, the appetizer and the main course. Of course you can choose extra dish, which you need to pay, I didn’t plan to pay $75 for a lobster, some people recommended in here, not in all inclusive resort. The biggest disappointment for me was the sleepless nights. There’re lots of tree frogs in St Lucia, you can hear them everywhere when the evening starts. When you hear them outside, it sounds nice, romantic. It doesn’t sound romantic at all when you hear it in your room, all night long. One if the tree frogs got inside the utility room, which is on the other side of the structure. Starting at 8-8:30pm and all night long it was making its noise. It’s hard to fall asleep hearing that. I asked the staff multiple times to do something, to check that utility room, to remove the frog. They said they did but couldn’t find any. Would be easier to check it after 8pm when the frog starts her song. We had to use a white noise on my phone to somehow overlap the frog’s noise. The staff is very good, attentive, everywhere, at the beach, restaurants, bars. They’re very polite and treat everybody well. No complains there. Only few people at the bar can make drinks, so you need to be lucky who you get. There was Michael at the pool bar, there were also a couple of female staff at the lounge bar, don’t remember their names. If you find someone who made a good drink, just stick to him/her

Just a short break of 2 nights but the stay was fabulous all round as usual. Most enjoyable and looking forward to next visit.

Fantastic staff , great resort . Service is first class . Excursion on Jojo’s speed boat outstanding. The only reason it is three stars is the beach is open to the public. It’s near the cruise ships which occurred many times. If you are relaxing with great service , the last thing you need is someone throwing a towel down in front of your sunbed , kids running around screaming. On these occasions we retreated to the pool . Also the airport next door was very busy , with up to 10 flights a day , prop planes bearable but the small jets were very intrusive, not exactly a relaxing environment. Food was a bit hot and miss, which was a big surprise. Also we went here as our Jamaica holiday was cancelled due to the hurricane, this also meant all other holidays raised their prices! We paid a lot more , and ended up getting less. I need to repeat it’s a lovely resort , and the staff are friendly, attentive, and give you a very good service.

The resort was beautiful and the two miles of beach was breathtaking! We stayed in a cottage and it was lovely! The food was also wonderful! I would definitely go back!

We have just returned from our third fabulous break at Stolentime. As usual, nothing was too much trouble for the staff (especially Sharma, Liz and Michael). We loved dining at the toes-in-the-sand Malabar Beach Bar. Do try the lobster! The breakfasts at the Terrace Restaurant are terrific - especially the omelettes, pancakes and waffles. Our favourite cocktail, the tropical sea breeze, was absolutely delicious. Stolentime provides great accommodation, beautiful grounds, fabulous dining, a huge variety of sports activities, plentiful beach beds and an extremely warm welcome.
