Reviewing Sugar Beach Resort – A Viceroy Resort….in St Lucia
The beach at Viceroy’s Sugar Beach resort in St Lucia boasts white sands in an area typically known for a much darker color of sand due to the volcanic nature of the area
The former Jalousie Plantation Resort located between Gros Piton and Petite Piton in St Lucia has been renamed Sugar Beach Resort and it is surely as sweet as the name implies.
Sugar Beach is luxury at it’s finest with everything you need for a luxury escape without all of the hoopla found at many larger resorts.
What you will find at Sugar Beach is excellent accommodations, superior service, attention to detail and a world class spa
What you won’t find are energetic entertainment staffs encouraging involvement in the party going on…this is about relaxing, rejuvenating, and experiencing one of the most dramatically beautiful settings for a beach resort anywhere in the world
Luxury Villas on the hillside offer many amenities, among which are-
- Four-poster bed with silky high-thread-count Egyptian cotton linens and romantic voile draping
- A walk-in closet/dressing room
- iPod docking station
- Complimentary internet access (either WiFi or hard wired)
- Large flat screen TV & DVD player
- Private bar
- Tea and coffee making facilities
- In-room safe
- Signature bathroom amenities
- Large bathroom with Victorian-style claw foot bath and enormous walk-in shower
- Over-sized plunge pool and private patio
- Personalized butler service
If lounging next to a gorgeous and relaxing pool is your idea of the perfect escape then it’s tough to find a more gorgeous setting than this…
The resort is primarily an EP style resort (European Plan – as opposed to all-inclusive) where dining is found at any one of 3 restaurants on site, or venture into nearby Soufriere for something very local. One event that is not to be missed is the Friday Fish Fry at Anse la Raye. This is a great evening activity in a small fishing village just a 45-minute drive from Sugar Beach. The main beachfront road is closed and the fishermen bring their catch right up on to the beach and it’s slapped straight onto the BBQ grill.
An all-inclusive dining option is available as an option
Spa
I’m not sure exactly how a spa is defined as world class, but if a setting immersed in the rainforest where individual treatment bungalows are scattered along the hillside and built from the native surroundings then the Rainforest Spa is surely world class…

Relaxing Royal Bamboo Massage
Hot Candle Massage
Hot Stone Massage

I am sure you will agree that it would be tough to find a more gorgeous setting for a luxury resort, and am confident that if your desire is to experience a superior resort in a tropical paradise then Sugar Beach has to be at the top of your list of possibilities
