The Landings Resort & Spa

St Lucia, Caribbean

Virgin rating

The hotel

The Landings’ signature cocktail sums up this deliciously decadent hotel, ‘Sweet Euphoria’. An all villa-suite resort, it delivers unforgettable moments like kicking off your shoes and sinking your feet into the sand at Callaloo Beach Bar & Grill — just one of its many dining options — or soaking up views of its private marina or Rodney Bay as you stretch out on your suite’s terrace. You can spend days letting the world drift by as you relax in its four pools, two hot tubs, sweeping sandy beach, and luxury spa and fitness club, or you can ramp up the energy levels with the range of water sports on offer. Little guests have not been forgotten either — they can create memories of picnic trips to Pigeon Island, sand sculpting, and fishing by the bay at their kids’ club or splash around in the kid's pool. Just remember, Rodney Bay Village is only 10 minutes’ drive away if you can bear to tear yourself from The Landings’ luxury.

Resort is phenomenal. Beautiful rooms, immaculate grounds, a great beach and wonderful staff.(shout out to Antonisious and Flavia). A real pleasure to stay here however, the food was borderline inedible. A real disappointment for a resort of this caliber. Luckily, we found some wonderful restaurants in the area and truly had a great time.

We just returned from a Girl’s Trip to St. Lucia where we stayed at The Landings. We can’t stop talking about this resort and how it exceeded our expectations. Just an incredible experience from the time we arrived to departure. Their customer service is outstanding. The entire staff was the friendliest most helpful that we have ever experienced. We had a 2 bedroom beach front butler villa. Fabulous! We would like to thank our incredible Butlers, Pero, Maverick and Ophelia (apologize if spelled incorrectly). We had 3 as they each had different shifts and days. Each of these people were so professional and helpful. We loved all 3 of them. In our eyes they should be nominated #1 Best Butlers of the year! St. Lucia is a beautiful island and we had a full week between pool, beach, sunset cruise shopping, etc. We didn’t do the all-inclusive only because we wanted to experience a few restaurants in St. Lucia too. The food we had at The Landings was still excellent. We went off-site to a couple restaurants recommended to us (Buzz and Spinnaker’s) both were incredible too. If you’re going to St. Lucia we highly recommend The Landings Resort. Read less

They were friendly, attentive, patient and responsive. They made us feel welcomed and pampered, but also gave us plenty of privacy to relax and do our own thing. I would definitely go back to The Landings on a return trip to St. Lucia! Read less

My friends and I went to the Landings for a girls trip (April 2024).  My overall summary would be that this is a beautiful property with a wonderful beach and apartment-style villas that would be ideal for families with children. From a food/service/amenities vs. cost perspective I would consider this a 4-star hotel, not a 5-star. We made the most of it and had a wonderful time. For more details: PROS - Beautiful, sandy beach with clear water, very swimmable.  - Staff for the most part was extremely friendly and kind, there were definitely some stand-outs but the people here are quite wonderful, especially as it appears they work long shifts.  - Spacious, clean apartments with full kitchens. We were upgraded to a 3-bedroom suite on an upper level and it was wonderful for our group.  - Located near Rodney Bay, which although it is a bit of a drive from the airport, was a great location and town to be nearby with restaurant options and shopping.  CONS - AI: I would not recommend the all-inclusive package that we purchased. I would consider it more of a food and beverage package, like on a cruise. It was just as expensive as other AI packages I have purchased in the past, but with many exclusions. Any seafood (even just a skewer of shrimp) or steak was an upcharge, among other items (basically, anything good). You could not get bottles of wine included so that you could have some in your room. One afternoon, my friend was made to carry a bottle-worth of wine up to our room in 3 large goblets by herself so that we could have wine in our room, but we were not allowed to take the actual bottle. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. It felt like nothing but a purposeful inconvenience. There were no snacks available in the room or minibar, and if you ordered food to your room there was a charge. Lastly, since AI was optional you had to wait for a receipt and sign every single time which was slow and annoying. - Food: I am completely perplexed by the reviews here that go on about gourmet food. Again, I would say it is not 5-star level, maybe 4. It is mostly edible, but very buffet-forward and very repetitive, mixed quality levels. The one decent restaurant on site (Callaloo) has a very small menu and is only occasionally open for dinner. My friend who is gluten-free was resigned to eating grilled fish and the same vegetables for most meals unless she wanted to pay the upcharge for shrimp or steak. - Service may be a training issue, it was a weird mix of overly-attentive water-pouring every 2 mins vs. never getting the coffee I asked for at breakfast. Service is always slow and you can expect every meal to take at least an hour or two.  - Resort Layout: this doesn't feel like a typical resort with a main pool area, and bar/lounge areas to use at night. It was very chopped up with the marina in the middle. Pools were scattered and small with no towel or bar service so we stuck to the beach area. Not much food/drink service at the beach or pools, I just saw one person occasionally walking around with a tray.  Net net, I think this hotel is for a specific audience who is not looking for the typical luxury all-inclusive resort experience and is OK leaving the resort for meals.
