Budget Hotels in Choiseul, St. Lucia

"Resort review The good: The place definitely had vacation vibes! Beautiful. Great beach, great pool. The bad: Staff isn’t as accommodating or friendly as I was expecting. Often rude, especially bartenders. (Servers are mostly good.) We had the all inclusive package and they gave us a purple hand band to wear during dining so they knew our meals & drinks are covered already. Yet, we STILL got a bill for each order!!! It’s so annoying. Bands are pointless. The all-inclusive option is definite not worth it. It didn’t include room service. If you’re gonna tip, tip in cash, always. Because the credit card tip doesn’t actually go to the servers. (Servers told us this.) The hot tub water is never actually hot. Hot tub was not working most of the time and we kept asking for it to be fixed. Our room key almost never worked. We kept asking for it to be fixed. They’d promise they’ll fix it “today,” but nothing. We kept needing to have staff open our door for us. My key didn’t work even on my last day. They tried to compensate us for our inconvenience by offering us a free meal at a local restaurant or a 30-minute massage. So they tried - but the troubles remained. The food was not good at all. It’s always a buffet for dinner (& btw, when it’s not buffet, if you eat anything from the buffet like the dessert & soups - even just the soup - it costs $40), and it wasn’t satisfying at all. Prices are for some reason in USD. Overall, NOT recommended, honestly."

"The ocean was not visible from my room but I did have a have the view of the lazy river and a beautiful palm tree with coconut and every morning their were beautiful hummingbirds that flew around the tree. "

"***NOT CHILD FRIENDLY!!!!!*** It has not been enjoyable and my daughter calls it “the hotel with the horrible singers” (karaoke singing) until 1030pm or later. When that’s done, you can hear the people at the bar until sometimes 12am. It took 5 nights for us to be moved. I can’t understand when I’m checking in and have my 6 year old daughter, and I am put in a room directly in front of the karaoke bar, how can’t you foresee me complaining? I couldn’t be ANY closer. All staff shrugged and stated nothing that we can do. It is a very small property. "

"The main building of the property including the rooms and the dining room and bar were kept very clean. The staff members were generally friendly. Special thanks to Garfield for arranging our catamaran tour with Sea Spray Cruises and Vanessa in the dining room for her consistently cheery service. We purchased the all inclusive plan and found the food to be very good. The beach was a short walk away and stores and restaurants were nearby. Nice, locally owned boutique resort."

"The view from our room of the beach and ocean was good. The staff was very hospitable, competent and gracious. We enjoyed everything about the resort except a couple of restaurants had less than outstanding food. The majority of restaurant options were very good."
