BodyHoliday Saint Lucia

This is a place like no other! It’s a choose-your-adventure wellness resort! Want to pack your day with hikes, fitness classes, beach volleyball and sailing? You can do it! Want to spend the day on the beach, swimming in the turquoise water and having cocktails delivered to your lounger? You can do that too! The food is amazing and they are diligent with asking about preferences or allergies. Finally, the wellness center….beyond relaxing. The daily spa treatments included in my stay were the perfect end to a busy day. I will be back!

Our expectations were exceeded. The staff and employees really make you feel at home and we had many interesting conversations. Fun music and dancing….. don’t miss the sunset cruise! Nice tourists come here: not the “ boozing” crowd. Great food in a variety of restaurants for all tastes: vegan, vegetarian, fish, meat etc. Amazing breakfast buffet. Great swimming beach for snorkeling and seeing beautiful colored fish ( no turtles). Our first all inclusive resort experience and it was positive. Massage, yoga, tennis, water aerobics, music on the beach, dance lessons, etc. Truly something for everyone. No need to leave the resort during your stay. One caveat: the transportation by shuttle vans can take 1.5/2 hours from the airport.

BodyHoliday itself was a nice resort, but you have to be mindful of the people who visit. Ladies, beware of Simon Bitton. That man tried to target me on my trip there and failed miserably. He's one of those people who will play on your emotions by telling a sob story about his childhood and ex-wife to win your sympathy. He'll then "randomly" pop up where you hang out and try to make conversation with you or sit near you (after monitoring you from a distance). He looks for single women around their 40s who tend to be more trusting and sympathetic. He realized I wasn't the one and fled, but ladies, be careful when you are on vacation. If you are travelling alone, watch the company you keep. If you are in a group, check in with one another often, and beware of someone who seems a little to interested in your company, especially if they know you want nothing to do with them. Let's stay safe on holiday.

I stayed at BodyHoliday for the first time in April 2008; 17 years later I have returned 12 times, staying 5 weeks in 2008. I began traveling at the age of 14 and I have had the opportunity to experience many beautiful properties all over the world but I never had any interest in returning to a property like a do with BodyHoliday. It's addictive and you will find a huge percentage of return clientele who will agree. The property is flawless, the vibe and the incredible staff are what make the property so amazing. You can find something to do every hour or content yourself with doing nothing. The food is excellent, the beach is lovely, the rooms are comfortable but this is a place where you certainly will have no interest in spending all your time in your room. The SPA and your daily, full body massage is definitely a big part of the all-inclusive experience and the massage therapists are very well trained. When BodyHoliday invites you to "Give us your body for a week and we'll give you back your mind", they aim to make good on their promise. There are so many "wanna-be" wellness resorts but BodyHoliday is the MOTHERSHIP of all.

spent a fabulous week at this splendid resort. There were so many best parts: the friendly and very attentive staff in every area, the complementary treatments every day, the beautiful, healthy food, and the gorgeous location. My room was a haven! I would like the staff to wear name tags.
