How to Experience the Best of St. Lucia

A Complete To-Do List

A Place of Beauty, Wonder, and Awe

Ah, St. Lucia. That lush green gem in the Caribbean where the mountains touch the clouds and the cocktails touch your soul. Whether you're looking to relax like royalty or adventure like a caffeinated pirate, St. Lucia delivers, especially when you’re kicking back at one of its world-class all-inclusive resorts.

Not sure where to start? Don’t worry. We’ve created a St. Lucia to-do list so complete, it might just come with a tan.

Check Into an All-Inclusive and Pretend You're a Celebrity

Seriously, if your resort doesn't greet you with a cool towel and a fruity drink within 30 seconds, are you even on vacation?

Top Resort Picks:

• Jade Mountain Resort – Luxury suites with private infinity pools overlooking the Pitons, offering unmatched views and exclusivity.

• Serenity at Coconut Bay – Adults-only, ultra-luxury accommodations designed for privacy, comfort, and personalized service.

• Sugar Beach, A Viceroy Resort – Located between the Pitons, this beachfront resort combines pristine natural beauty with world-class amenities.

Once you’re checked in, activate vacation mode. That means no email, no news alerts, and no guilt about eating dessert at every meal.

Soak in the Piton Views without Climbing Anything

Sure, hiking the Pitons is technically “a thing.” But you can also admire them from the infinity pool with a frozen drink in hand.

If you’re feeling a bit adventurous, try a Piton catamaran cruise. You’ll get great selfies, ocean breezes, and maybe even a dolphin sighting.

Take Advantage of Resort Activities

All-inclusives are basically summer camps for grown-ups. Join the morning beach yoga. Compete in the pool volleyball tournament. Dominate trivia night with your oddly specific knowledge of '90s sitcoms.

Worst case? You try something new. Best case? You earn a plastic medal and bragging rights until the next vacation!.

Spa It Up

St. Lucia’s spas are next-level, and your sore-from-napping muscles deserve it. Most resorts offer full-service spas with oceanfront treatment rooms and ridiculous-sounding services like "volcanic ash detox" or "chocolate truffle wraps."

Let them smear you with local herbs. You earned this.

Explore Outside the Resort (Briefly, Gently)

We love a good all-inclusive bubble, but St. Lucia has some gems worth venturing out for.

Try:

• Sulphur Springs Mud Bath – It’s warm, it’s weird, it smells a little...volcanic. But your skin will glow like you were kissed by island angels.

• Toraille Waterfall – Easy to access, beautiful for photos, and refreshing enough to cancel out one too many rum punches.

• Local street food – Seek out grilled fish, fried plantains, or St. Lucian roti. Your resort buffet is great, but the island’s real flavors live outside the gates.

Just make sure your resort arranges transport, and you're back in time for sunset cocktails.

Say Yes to the Romantic Extras

Private beach dinners. Sunset sails. Floating breakfast trays. Do any of these things make sense in real life? No. But in St. Lucia, they’re mandatory. If you’re traveling with your partner, this is your chance to turn up the romance. If you're solo? Treat yourself like you're dating Beyoncé.

Take Too Many Photos, Then Unplug

Yes, that mountain view deserves a dozen angles. Yes, the breakfast spread is Instagrammable. But at some point, put the phone down and actually be in paradise. The Wi-Fi can wait.

Now, You’re Ready!

St. Lucia is the kind of place where you can do everything, or absolutely nothing, and still feel like you’ve lived your best life. With an all-inclusive resort as your home base, you’re already winning. Add in a few adventures, a massage or two, and an unreasonable number of cocktails with umbrellas in them…and boom. You’re doing St. Lucia right.
