  Another great holiday in paradise

  Another holiday in paradise We went to windjammer in late October and had a great time with a group of friends for two weeks, the all inclusive menu was way above our expectations and service was good and enhanced thanks to Both the Ambassador service and The Butler service, special thanks to Ambassador Jean Pierre and Butler Wisley, and Bar staff member Elijah who always seems to know what our order was going to be, we loved it so much we returned with our extended family on 8th January only to be greeted by the staff who remembered us and attended to all our needs. The Butler service worked seamlessly even reserving tables for one of our parties Birthday The restaurant menus had changed as apparently they are still on a constant improvement track As some of our party have different quisine needs we were offered a choice of food from the other restaurant menus on site so we could all be together at meal times. The Bar staff worked flawlessly even concocting special cocktails for some of our party. I have read some of the less favourable reviews on here and can only say they must have visited a different resort !! Or had an ulterior motive!! Special thanks to. Rohan in upper deck who was amazing on both occasions Butlers Ian, Bridget, The amazing Wisley and of course lovely Marcus Bar staff Elijah (aka George Foreman 😎) and Christian, in fact all the bar and restaurant staff We will definitely return and hopefully stay at one of the new Ocean Point properties which look ultra modern and amazing Time to stop as I’m sure no one will read to the end !!

  Overall Good / Little Disappointments

  Stayed in a villa at Windjammer Landing & Resort in St. Lucia. While the overall experience with Exceptional Villas and Windjammer was good, there are some things they fail to mention and I was not overly impressed with Windjammer. There were some little things that added up, which made me decide this would not be a place I would stay at again. All inclusive is quite expensive and the expectation is that everything would be kept stocked at all times. None of that happened. We had to call over and over to get items like water and soda restocked. Towels were left in a bag outside the door or on the floor somewhere. Sugar and creamer for the coffee was always out and multiple calls had to be made to get it restocked. This is not the type of service I was expecting. Exceptional Villas fail to mention all the stairs in the villa and the pictures do not show them either. Constant up and down 27-33 steps multiple times a day is not ideal for older guests and should be mentioned. The villa itself is quite dated and not what I am used to when described as luxury. Windjammer restaurants are good. Food is excellent. However, the majority of options require a reservation which is not ideal if you don't want to be tied down to a schedule. Also, some of the restaurant service is very slow. 3 hours for dinner is pretty lengthy especially if you have children. Windjammer convenience store is great to have but they charge different prices to different people for the same items. This happened to us several times at the store and the souvenir shop. Overall, we had a good time and St. Lucia is beautiful. We have visited the country several times but I wanted to try a different experience. We will definitely be going back to Sandals for future Caribbean vacations.

  The Windjammer Landing = An Absolute Gem!

  My family and I recently returned from a week’s stay at the Windjammer Landing and absolutely loved it. For us, Windjammer felt like a home away from home, where you’re visiting much-loved family. It was that welcoming! I’m not sure exactly why, but the size and layout of the resort, the accommodation types, the AMAZING staff, and the people who have been returning here for decades certainly have a lot to do with it. We stayed in a fantastic 2-bedroom hilltop villa with a sprawling patio, a private plunge pool, and absolutely stunning views. The unit was updated, very clean, and well-equipped. It was really nice to have a full kitchen, even if we didn’t utilize it much beyond the basics. The plunge pool was a big hit, and we used it almost daily in the late afternoons and evenings. It was a tad chilly at first, but soooo refreshing after a long day in the sun. As for the shuttle service to get us up and down from the hilltop, it was fantastic - a super short ride, and we never had to wait more than 2 - 5 minutes to be picked up. The main pool is really lovely, though admittedly, we spent most of our time at the beach, which was equally lovely. It’s a horseshoe-shaped beach with white sand and set along a beautiful, calm bay. Unlike some resorts, where getting a lounger is like participating in the Hunger Games, the Windjammer has tons of very nice ones under umbrellas and palapas. No matter the time of day, we never had an issue finding 3 or 4 loungers together. The striped towels were really nice quality too. The food and drinks were good to very good, and the portions were just right. We had particularly good meals at Papa Don’s and the Upper Deck, but we also loved Jammers when we wanted to keep it particularly casual and/or the guys wanted to watch a game. We did the all-inclusive package, which was a good fit for us, but you could easily forgo it if you have a kitchen in your unit. I would just stock up at a grocery store, as the choices at the Windmart can sometimes be a bit limited depending on demand and timing. There was live evening entertainment in the main resort area throughout the week, which we enjoyed. From flame throwers to steel bands, DJs, saxophonists, and singers, it was great. I think it was usually done by 10:00 or 11:00 PM? During the day, I think there was music playing at the main pool, but not in a super loud way, so if you’re looking for a booming club-like vibe, this won’t be the place for you. The water sports were a huge hit for us, and we took full advantage, going tubing, wakeboarding, sailing, snorkeling, and more. Special shout-out to Denver, who went out of his way for all of us, especially our son. I’ll wrap by going back to the staff who were all so incredibly kind, professional, and helpful. They are truly outstanding and are a huge reason why Windjammer is the gem that it is. We had a 10/10 experience at the Windjammer and can’t wait to go back!

  Hit and Miss…

  This is a stunningly beautiful resort. You cannot fault the beach and pool area for its beauty! The hotel is built on a hill allowing for nice views, but can be tiring to get around, however, the shuttle service is very quick and efficient. We never waited more than 3 minutes for one to arrive. We also really enjoyed the tennis courts. Staff are also, for the most part, very friendly. However it didn’t quite reach our expectations in a few different ways. Our room wasn’t ready on the first day until past 6pm, and even then there were issues with cleanliness. We found an old acrylic nail on the floor in our bathroom. Food is hit and miss. Sometimes delicious (recommend the Italian!), but sometimes genuinely bad (avoid prawn pasta at dragonfly). Not what you expect from a leading hotel. Service is very very slow at times. Get your beach-side lunch orders in early as you may be waiting an hour and a half otherwise! However, drinks / cocktail orders were speedier and delicious! Turn down service is variable. Sometimes you get it, sometimes you don’t. Also, a couple members of our party developed a stomach-related illness (not sure if food poisoning or a virus) and were wiped out for a day. We are aware of other guests on the resort also getting sick, so maybe steer clear if you value your health. Overall an enjoyable and pleasant stay, but value for money is unfortunately not there.

  Take the good with the bad.

  This is a five star looking resort. Location and views are stunning. Depending on which villa you are staying in, it will be 3 or 4 star in reality. Many villas are beautiful but with maintenance and stocking issues that take a long time to resolve. Some villas are old and run down looking. Bath tubs in showers not draining properly, sticky doors and windows, hot water taking 10 minutes to flow, and missing kitchen utensils and gadgets. The food is very overpriced and not very good. We found the food off property, to be more reasonably priced and better quality. The entertainment is hit and miss. There is a lot of noisy construction going on in different areas that is a problem for some. Having said this, it’s a beautiful resort, but with the food and lack of attention to detail, it will never be a five star resort.
