  Should be More BodyHolidays in the World

  This is a great place. It is so nice to get exercise while on vacation. The dinner table for solo guests is also a wonderful treat. The daily treatments are very fine. The staff have excellent integrity and are amazingly kind. My only issue is : there should be more BodyHolidays in the world.

  A restful break by the sea

  Although initially we were quite underwhelmed by the property (dated and very worn/in poor repair in places) we settled in and had a really good time. To be fair to the management they took our feedback on board and tried to rectify issues we had. The staff were lovely, very friendly, very courteous, well trained and eager to please. Food was generally good. Lovely beach, beautiful sunsets, beautiful early morning hikes to scenic locations around hotel, great range of inclusive classes and activities including sunset yoga on a beautiful deck over the sea. Generally the daily treatments were good too. We felt very rested after our 9 nights and despite initial issues do understand why people return. If you are going just expect more of a 4 star offering and you will have a great time. 🏝️🌞

  Never Again!

  The holiday itself was absolutely beautiful—there’s no complaint there. This has been a favorite destination for my family for years. Unfortunately, this time, after my departure, unexpected charges appeared on my account. When I reached out to customer service, I received no assistance. I've been trying to resolve this issue for over a month now, yet there’s been no explanation or solution. Instead, the reception staff vaguely "assume" that the charges were for trips and fail to provide invoices. The customer service is shockingly poor and completely unhelpful, which tarnishes the reputation of this otherwise wonderful establishment. It’s such a shame. Despite it being a long-time favorite of ours, I can’t see myself returning after this experience.

  Good, but there is room for improvement

  Our issues began shortly after we had made our booking and we wanted to reserve treatments via the Webroom (the resort's on-line booking engine). The Webroom wouldn't let us register, we reached out to Body Holiday repeatedly before someone sorted the issue out and got back in touch with us. After we were finally able to access the Webroom, each time we attempted to make a booking, we received an error message saying 'the time was not available.' We would select another open time slot from the 'available times' only to receive the same error message. You can imagine, by the time we arrived at the resort, most massages, treatments, etc. were booked up and we had trouble scheduling anything in person. The resort itself is nice, but I would hesitate to say it's luxury. (also, it is worth noting that the resort is on the northern coast of the island, and the airport is on the southern tip. Which means you have a two-hour drive over some narrow, windy roads to get to and from the resort) It is located on a lovely private beach that provides wonderful scenery and sunsets. There are multiple pools, restaurants, activity areas, etc. to enjoy sprinkled throughout the resort. It is so large that every morning they offer a new guest orientation tour to familiarize you with the property, which we found very helpful and I would recommend to first-timers. Our favorite aspect of the resort, and indeed why we chose it, was the variety of activities offered every day. Not only were we able to try/learn activities we had never experienced before such as archery or pickleball, but the instructors who are there are at the top of their fields. The man running the volleyball clinic while we were there was a two-time olympian. The man giving golf lessons has represented St. Lucia internationally multiple times. The list goes on. My point is that receiving such instruction from experts is nearly unheard of and would be expensive, but it is available at Body Holiday. Additionally, they offer numerous activities off of the resort such as hiking the Pitons, daily runs, etc. The last thing I want to mention is the restaurants. There were five, I think, some more casual and others fancier that required a reservation. (I found this irritating also, there are five restaurants, but not a single one has a sign of any kind. As first-time guests, we had no idea which restaurant was which, some of them are adjacent to each other, and some change to be different restaurants at different times. We found it confusing) The fancier restaurants we ate at (Windows and Tao) were very good. The atmosphere, food, and service were all fantastic. The casual restaurants; Cairblue, The Wellness cafe, and the Pavillion Grill leave a lot to be desired. The staff at these restaurants was indifferent and did the minimum. We felt as if we were inconveniencing them asking for anything. Additionally, the food at these restaurants was average at best. The portion sizes were small and nothing we had during our stay was particularly good. Over all we had an enjoyable trip and we would recommend Body Holiday to anyone looking for an active/relaxing tropical holiday in the Caribbean.
