Sandals Halcyon Beach

My favorite activity was the photo scavenger hunt! It was so fun running around learning the area and interacting with everyone!

Great entertainment and hotel

The resort is very charming and relaxing. The food is just average but the servers and all the staff are great. They need many more shade structures on the beach

Leaving Sandals Halcyon Beach today after a 10 day stay and it's been the most relaxing holiday I've ever had. Wonderful resort with everything you need and a lovely laid back atmosphere. Rooms are nice, food and drink are great and it has 3 nice pools, with the Crystal Lagoon probably the nicest one I've swam in. The staff are friendly, attentive and efficient even at busy times. The beach isn't as nice as those at the other two Sandals in St Lucia and the snorkeling isn't great either, but these are the only negative points, are obviously outside of Sandals control, and are more than made up for by the positive points already mentioned. A fantastic place and one I hope to return to soon!

This is our second Sandals holiday (first one being St.Vincent last year), so our expectations were extremely high. The Positives - ALL the staff are friendly & welcoming A MASSIVE shout out to Vince (barman) incredible human, very friendly, welcoming and just knows what he is doing, never had an empty glass! Delores (works in the restaurants) glorious Delores, what a welcome each morning, such a sunny nature, bang on her game and gets everyone & everything organised. Julianna (chamber maid) looked after us amazingly, always smiling, welcoming and happy The gardens are immaculate and gardeners work tirelessly to keep this way The beach is wonderful We really liked the small resort The food in the Bayside Restaurant of an evening was very good. Soy the sushi bar was incredible and by far our favourite, food was fresh and flavourful. Kimonos is great and a fab experience The Negatives - We booked a (as quoted by Sandals) “ Crystal Lagoon Poolside Luxury” Let me tell you it was far from luxury, we backed into a very busy noisy main road. There was no mosquito net over the louvred window in the bathroom, so had plenty of biting insects coming in (kept the door closed at all times). This was very very disappointing! There was just a bath with a shower overhead, the tiles & mastic around the bath was black (would imagine mould). We had 2 cockroaches in our room The resort overall desperately needs a refurb, it looks very tired and worn. Kelly’s Dockside restaurant needs to have spot checks done, service was not very good The air con in Mario’s & Kelly’s Dockside was so cold it made it an uncomfortable experience, people were sitting in jumpers shivering. The standard of the food was nowhere near that of St.Vincent, sadly this was one of the things we were looking forward to the most and got us hooked on Sandals. There was a lot of confusion over a courtesy room, people being told there was none and having to change in the toilet, to others being told they could pay $100 to keep there’s on for the day and others saying being told they were at full capacity. I really hope that Sandlas invests the much needed money into this resort as it has such beautiful surroundings
