Destination informationDestination information

Boasting some of the Caribbean's loveliest mountain scenery, the volcanic island of St Lucia is covered in lush vegetation. Our Sandals hotels are on the northwest coast, so we highly recommend you take some excursions round the island to appreciate its diversity. The famous Pitons are an essential stop, as is the drive-in volcano and botanical gardens.

Twilight Check-in
Check in at Gatwick the evening before you fly to save time and hassle in the morning.

Check in, Chill out Enjoy the last few hours of your holiday relaxing by the pool rather than queuing at the airport. Virgin's popular check in, chill out service is available at all Sandals resorts in St Lucia.
