  • We spend 7 beautiful days at the Stolentime by Rendezvous Hotel in St Lucia, Caribbean. Possibly my favourite hotel we've ever stayed at. 5 star all inclusive experience through and through, with amazing food, service, free activities, beach and atmosphere.
    👇 Check prices and availability for the hotel here:

    We also venture into Castries, the capital of St Lucia and spend a few hours at Rodney Bay, a popular tourist destination to the north. Finally, we take an island day trip to the south of the island, to witness the impressive Piton mountains - Petit Piton and Gros Piton, as well as dolphins, waterfalls, sulphur hot springs and snorkelling. Sounds too good to be true? It was. 😅

    😂 I know where my place is in society and it is not wallowing in the mud with strangers. 😅 Great video!

    I felt this. I'm at that age where yahooing and drinking is boring and I want to enjoy and learn about the place I'm at.

    I was born in one of the islands very close to St. Lucia: Barbados. I’ve always been curious why tourists have been choosing St. Lucia rather than Barbados, so this was great to see. The pitons are beautiful.

      My opinion, I found Barbados boring and too commercialised but with St Lucia there’s more things to do

    Great video. We have been to St Lucia, we stayed at Sandals Halcyon beach. What a great deal you got. You are so right sometimes what you need is just a nice relaxing holiday. Thanks for a great video. Take Care Chris and Sandra of Canada.

    Wait you talking about how many Brits were with you in St. Lucia reminded me so much of my honeymoon in Antigua. My wife and I are American so we are programmed to drive and walk on the right side at all times. The number one way we could tell our fellow Americans apart from the many Brits that were staying at our resort with us (aside from accent of course) was whether we would run into each other on the footpaths around the resort.

    • @davidellett9316
      @davidellett9316 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Also: I feel like St. Lucia has a ton of amazing resorts that kind of get overshadowed by the insanity that is the Jade Mountain resort. I think it’s really one of the nicest places in the Caribbean for a holiday

    • @davidellett9316
      @davidellett9316 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ok one more thought. We also met some very nice folks on our boat tour which circumnavigated Antigua, but it also was definitely a “party boat” environment. The thing is, we picked up extremely distinct groups of people at each resort the boat stopped at. The resort my wife and I stayed at was mostly younger honeymooners. Sandals was almost exclusively 50+ couples. And the other resort (can’t recall the name) was like early to mid twenties single people that the staff of the boat flirted with the entire time.

    Hoping all the best for this big decision - as someone that was introduced to you with your Japan videos (which I regularly watch as they inspired some places of my trip there in Spring), I hope you're moving over there!

      Those Japan videos were the best! I’ve watched them 2-3 times already salivating at my future Japan trip. I think my 1st video of suitcase monkey was the Maldives Instagram vs reality one.

    St Lucia's population is approximately 180,000. It's a very small island with an area of 238 sq.miles. it is also known as "The Helen of the West Indies".
    It is the only island with two famous Nobel Prize Winners. They are Sir Arthur Lewis and Sir Derek Walcott, who won awards for Economics and Literature respectively.
    St Lucia hosts the famous St Lucia Jazz Festival in May every year.
    The hurricane Season starts in June and ends in November . It's worth noting that the active hurricane months are August to October. However, hurricanes do not strike every island annually.
    Most visitors enjoy the warm, mud baths. It has been said that the mud baths are very beneficial for skin conditions.
    Great video. Very impressive and informative . Thanks.
