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.

A 3 star hotel at 4+ star prices. No turn down service, even on request, non existent to minimal service at the beach and pool, have to set up you own chairs on the beach and get your own towels. The Butler service is poor to non existent. They performed none of the services detailed in the literature provided by the hotel. Example, Butler offered to bring us a drink when the bar opened, we are still waiting and we have been home for 2 days ( lol). Just one example of many. “The Landings Experience” is walking around on a cold tile floor because while they provide robes, they do not provide slippers. Is this luxury or an elevated experience? Just crazy for the cost. No tables or towels readily available at the pools. These are basic amenities and are absent at the resort. Choose another property for the cost. This would be a different review if the price was half to a third of the cost. You will have better luck at a typical Hilton or Marriott. Read less

Wonderful place. Family friendly but there weren't kids running all around. So good for relaxing with the family. After we worked through an AC issue that lasted 2.5 days (READ BELOW), our family of 6 adults plus an infant really enjoyed our stay at The Landings. Our units were a 3-bedroom beachfront and a 2-bedroom beachfront. Both were clean, spacious with spectacular views. Our booking came with butler service, which I highly recommend! Our butlers, Ophelia, Maverick, and Pero, were all extremely attentive and doting on us. Ophelia was our primary butler and she was absolutely amazing. On the flip side, there were two things that disappointed us: (1) Dining choices: We got the all-inclusive and were disappointed with the number of choices for dinner. Dinner has two options (one being buffet) or room service. That being said, The Palms (for the days when it was open) was fabulous and we went there twice. We had room service several times and that actually was pretty good (order from The Beach Club or The Callaloo if possible!) And we were disappointed that the drink options were cheap wine and liquor as this is a 5-star resort. But I would still recommend going with the all inclusive if you do want to drink as the prices for food and drinks are insanely inflated. (2) AC issues We got two units, and the 3 bedroom beachfront 3rd floor unit was absolutely stunning. HOWEVER, when we arrived on a Thursday, the air conditioning wasn't working. The blowers were barely going and all three bedrooms and the living room were between (82-86F / 28-30C). We notified them immediately and their staff was very nice but the problem didn't go away despite them sending various maintenance people over. It seems they were trying to do a major stall, giving us excuses like "it's the third floor and those units struggle more" (our response: do other tourists really put up with 82-86F?) or after a late evening temp check they said "it seems to be cooler than last time we checked" (our response: it's 8PM, the sun has gone down and it's still 82 inside). Unfortunately they didn't have anything to move us to until Sunday. But they did move us then, and we were really able to start enjoying the vacation. I pushed for some kind of compensation for our troubles and at checkout (after reminding them that we had spoken of it earlier) and was given some token credit which we applied to spa charges. So that was helpful, but we would have far preferred to have had a working unit. I came to learn that the units are all individually owned and The Landing manages them and facilitates the rentals. So perhaps their hands were tied with major expenses. I don't know. I'll say that through all this the staff was VERY nice and professional. My recommendation is to call prior to putting down your final payment and confirm that any unit they would put you in will have a working AC. Bottom line: Had we not had the AC issues, I would have given them 5 stars. Read less

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
