We went for our honeymoon and had the loveliest time. The people were so friendly and the views were incredible. Food was good, with Hunters probably being the best in our opinion. The steak was delicious and cooked perfectly. Our butlers, Reana and Dell were incredible. So attentive, helpful, and friendly. They really were what made this stay… Read more

I enjoyed my stay at the Royalton overall. My butlers Darnell and Neil were a 10/10. They were extremely helpful, attentive and kind throughout my stay. I came here to celebrate my bday and they helped accommodate me during my stay. I liked how attentive they were to me and my companions needs. I loved my beautiful bday decor and it helped elevate my bday experience. They always made sure to remind us of any activities taking place and to book reservations for dinner. My initial room was not ready because of some issues the room had. So my butlers assisted me with a more spacious and nicer room. We were up since 5 am in the morning and made it to St.Lucia at 1:25 pm and arrived to resort, I was ready to shower and relax. I am happy we did not have to pack up and leave to go back to our original room. The room had a slight damp smell to it. However, it was nothing debilitating. Lastly, I would have liked if Diamond Club members would have had more access to top shelf liquor in places limited only to the diamond club lounge. The Diamond Club lounge is not opened late like the other bars. So it would have been nice to have those premium liquors in other places as that are opened late. My companion and I’s favorite restaurant was Hunters Steakhouse. The food at this resort was meh. so I would not stay here for the perks of the food. I enjoyed only certain items from Calyso as well. If I’m being honest here, I would not recommend Royalton if a person wants to stay here and expect really good food. I enjoyed Scores Bar because the dj was great. I liked the Afro beats night on 11/08/24. That was our favorite night at Scores. This resort had a nice relaxing vibe to it, good customer service and cool entertainment. Read less

Have just returned from a week at the royalton and absolutely loved it. The rooms were spacious and clean, the food was lovely with massive variety in the buffet and across the a la carte restaurants and the resort itself was beautiful. We booked via TUI but used the helicopter transfer on our arrival at St. Lucia which was an amazing experience and really cut down on our travel time to the resort, we got the TUI transfer back to the airport and that took around 1.5 hours. We booked a boat trip on the beach from Peter at Typhoon Resorts which we would definitely recommend, we visit the mud baths, water fall, a traditional creole restaurant and went snorkeling at sugar beach. We loved our stay at the Royalton and would definitely return. Read less

My overall experience at the Royalton in St. Lucia was great. The Diamond Club experience made it extra special. The hotel grounds are beautiful and there is plenty to do. The day activities and music by pool were my favorite. The beach is absolutely stunning, very calm and clear waters. The amenities that the Diamond Club offers are top notch. Favorite part of the trip was having our own butlers, Nikita and Nelson. They were so helpful - especially Nelson. He went above and beyond to get to know us and ask questions that would ultimately help him make our experience memorable. He remembered our favorite drinks and made sure the Diamond Lounge was stocked with them. He scheduled all of our dinner reservations and recommended his favorite restaurants. He also made our friend’s birthday extra special by decorating her room beautifully. She was so happy and absolutely loved the details. He also suggested we go to the Street Party and even set up the transportation for us! That was our favorite night. Everyone at the hotel was so friendly and willing to help. The service at the beach was impeccable and the food was delicious! Will definitely be returning soon! Read less

I stayed at the Royalton during October with my husband, sister and her family (two children agree 1 and 4, and husband). This was my first stay at a Royalton resort. It’s a huge resort with something for everyone. Plenty of places to eat, a decent beach area, and a very nice Gym and Kid Club. We had upgraded to the Diamond Suite which includes a butler service. A massive thanks to Kaysha and Dwight for being amazing and helping ensure our stay was amazing. The Diamond Suite rooms itself maybe slightly more spacious. I would say that the hotel rooms and amenities are more 4 star than 5 star in that the rooms are a little dated and need an uplift. We used Nexus Tours for transfers and day trips, they are great. We also used the photography services which was lovely and we ended up with some lovely pictures. The photographers were great with the kids too. Good entertainment each night on the beach and in the entertainment area. On the whole a great location, and a nice hotel with all that you could want from a beach holiday. Enough variety for everyone. Read less
