Set amongst 60 acres of hillside, Windjammer is surrounded by lush tropical gardens and overlooks pretty Labrelotte Bay. Beautifully decorated in a Southern Mediterranean style, tiled walkways, sloping roofs and elegant white buildings make Windjammer one of the most attractive hotels in St Lucia. For ultimate luxury, an upgrade to villa accommodation is highly recommended. Located on one of the largest secluded beaches on the island, Windjammer is perfect for couples wanting to escape everyday life but is equally suited to families wanting to enjoy the extensive facilities that the hotel has to offer. The high-quality restaurants are yet another great feature, five different dining options from light dishes to mouth-watering gourmet specialities. The beachside bar is well located, overlooking the calm shallow sea making it the perfect place to enjoy the beautiful sunset.

My husband and I stayed at this place for a week and enjoyed our stay. The staff were polite and helpful most of the time. Our room was clean and comfortable. The complimentary breakfast was great with a lot of varieties. My favorite was the smoothy bar. The staff there could make any types of smoothy I wanted. We also enjoyed water activities, from sea kayaking to sailing. I would give this place 4 stars if we did not have the following two negative experiences. (1) We were incorrectly charged $200 for the free airport shuttle from and to UVF airport. When we explained to the hotel staff and managers that our package included the free airport shuttle, they refused to refund us the $200. (2) We booked a half-day trip for zip lining through the excursion office in the resort, thinking it would be more reliable and offer better services. We were wrong. Our trip was supposed to depart from the resort at 8:30 am. However, no one showed up until 9:00 am. While the excursion office offered us a full refund, we missed the opportunity to enjoy the zip lining.

Norovirus Outbreak!

There is a major outbreak at this resort that has been going on since January and maybe longer. I was very sick on my vacation. I feel there is poor hygiene here and as a result it’s spreading like wildfire. Yes it’s everywhere right now, but it’s really bad at this resort in particular.

There is a major outbreak at this resort that has been going on since January and maybe longer. I was very sick on my vacation. I feel there is poor hygiene here and as a result it’s spreading like wildfire. Yes it’s everywhere right now, but it’s really bad at this resort in particular. The buffet was still self serve when I was there but I hear they have finally switched it. I think that was a hot spot for sure.
Staff were lovely, food was good, resort is picturesque, but I wouldn’t come back. Hygiene at this resort does not meet my standards. Room was not cleaned every day and when it was it didn’t feel clean. Table was sticky, bathroom floors were grimy and floors were sandy.

If you want to spend a lot of money to go to an OK place and get sick, this is your place. Everyone in our party got sick and understand there was at least 20 others the same way. Staff was very kind to send a nurse and doctor....after $750 USD and an IV we got to at least enjoy 2 out of the 5 days there. I hate for the hard working staff but to…

Bad virus at the Windjammer resort

We were at the St Lucia Windjammer resort for 3 nights and four days. All four of us(adults) got sick as could be with what we thought was food poisoning. We saw several others getting sick or mentioning they had already gotten sick.

We were at the St Lucia Windjammer resort for 3 nights and four days. All four of us(adults) got sick as could be with what we thought was food poisoning. We saw several others getting sick or mentioning they had already gotten sick.
If you read other reviews, apparently it’s the Noravirus. If that’s the case, the place needs SERIOUS SANITATION. The same thing happens on cruise ships. The place needs to warn people and have hand sanitizer all over the place. Not a good time to visit until the bug is cleared from the property.

NO WAY I WOULD GO TO THIS RESORT AGAIN

We paid for all inclusive. It’s not what I call all inclusive. You only can get one meal for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We had an excursion booked for 9:30 one morning they changed it to 11:30 because so many cruise ships being in port. We thought we would go get some lunch before we did the excursion due to the change in time. The lunch…

We paid for all inclusive. It’s not what I call all inclusive. You only can get one meal for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We had an excursion booked for 9:30 one morning they changed it to 11:30 because so many cruise ships being in port. We thought we would go get some lunch before we did the excursion due to the change in time. The lunch meal would start at 11:30. So we decided to go through the breakfast buffet again. We were told we couldn’t do that because we had all ready been to the breakfast buffet unless we paid for it. How is that all inclusive?
We went to the gift shop and bought snacks to have something to eat before the excursion.
We get home after being home two months they add charges on credit card that we had already paid at check out. I will never come back to this resort.
This just happened in the week 12-18-2024
