We can’t say enough good things about our stay at the Sandals Halcyon Beach. Probably the biggest compliment would be to the staff. They make you want to return.

We can’t say enough good things about our stay at the Sandals Halcyon Beach. Probably the biggest compliment would be to the staff. They make you want to return. I kinda felt like I was saying goodbye to friends, when we left. It was my 65 birthday and the staff made me feel like a queen. Someone brought chocolate cake to our room and then champagne to the pool area. It was amazing! Dania did a great facial. She was so sweet and did a great job. I had my hair done and she was very sweet. There were several other gals that loved on us every day, They always had a smile when they greeted us. Shenelle, Estelle and Venezia. Thank you for taking such good care of us. The grounds are beautiful. They work every day, making sure everything looked good. Beautiful gardens and flowers in every color. Even a thin frail painter was friendly. Food and drink are plenty. We did go over to the other Sandals on the island. The transportation is easy and it offered a little different feel. We loved Barefoot In The Sand. Americans are not as friendly or accommodating. We could learn a little about service, from our friends at Halcyon. Read less

Laura from housekeeping was a standout sweetheart… Kind, friendly, helpful and accommodating in anyway we needed. The hotel itself has a setting and grounds that are beautifully landscaped and well kept. It’s a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere and we interacted with many other employees that were so kind, friendly, courteous and helpful! Read less

Sandals Halcyon was recommended to us as being the more quiet and calmer resort out of the 3 Sandals resorts that you can travel between. The staff were all so friendly and greeted us every time we passed them. The daytime poolside DJ (Jeanson) and the country night DJ (Adam) were fantastic at getting the guests to participate. We had a lovely Club Level orientation guided by (Angie) who helped made our stay feel like our home away from home. The sushi restaurant (Soy) was our most favorite place for predinner appetizers. We recommend any future guests to go on the Soufriere Adventure Cruise and Taste of St. Lucia excursions. Read less

I have to start by saying this Resort was nice. We opted for a Club room with a balcony with a bathtub. The room was clean and cozy. While the resort was nice the people literally stole the show!

I have to start by saying this Resort was nice. We opted for a Club room with a balcony with a bathtub. The room was clean and cozy. While the resort was nice the people literally stole the show! There aren’t enough words to describe the amazing people we encountered on this trip. It was amazing from the moment we stepped foot on the resort. Specifically, Leome who was our server at Mario’s on our last full night. Celina who greeted us with the brightest smile every single morning at Bayside for breakfast. Nikklev, the chef, who made sure my husbands dreams of Cocoa Tea came true. Nasha, who was the most wonderful server for our private dinner. Even in the rain she was amazing and kept the most pleasant smile on her face. There were two very specific ladies who went above and beyond. Even until our very last moments on the resort. Ms. Lloni. I mean WOW. We met her towards the end of our trip. But you wouldn’t have known that. It truly was like she was a long lost family member. She truly went out of her way to make sure we had the best time! Lastly, but certainly not least, Ms. Natalie. I have to giggle at how blessed we were to have crossed paths with Natalie. It truly was the biggest blessing to have her during our stay. While the whole staff was phenomenal, Natalie was the one! She was the shining star that kept us going our entire 5 day trip. When I alerted her of a concern, not only did she assure me it would be taken care of, she actually did the leg work to get it taken care of. I cannot think of one thing that Natalie didn’t handle while we were there. To say she went above and beyond would not be enough to describe how amazing she was nor enough to describe her passion for what she does. If you ever get the chance to cross paths with her, consider yourself lucky! Overall, I would recommend this resort. If you’re looking to relax and surround yourself with great people for a few days while in St. Lucia, this is the place to be. Read less
