The hotel itself creates a romantic setting with it's idyllic beaches and gourmet dining, but if you do have the kids in tow, the Sun Kids Club has daily itineraries to ensure they have their own adventure; giving you time to relax at the chic Buddha Beach Bar with a cocktail in hand.

My fiancée and I booked Sugar Beach for our wedding in October 2024 and we are so glad we did. From the moment of arrival to our departure, we were made to feel like special guests. On the day of our arrival, We were personally shown to our room by one of the of the reception staff and were delighted with our home for the next 10 nights. On our first visit to the restaurant, we were greeted by Vikram who showed us around the restaurant before seating us. His service never faltered throughout our stay and his personal touch made us feel very special. A lovely man and a credit to Sugar Beach. As mentioned, our wedding was booked for the 25/10/24 and Nadia, our wedding coordinator, looked after everything. She was so friendly, relaxed and professional and nothing was a problem for her in arranging our special day. On the days leading up to our wedding, we relaxed in the most beautiful place, enjoying the stunning grounds of the hotel, the fantastic food and drinks and the attention of the dedicated staff. Sadul, one of the pool bar staff was another lovely man who we enjoyed speaking to every day. He looked after us so well. The day of our wedding. WOW! Nadia and the other staff members made our day absolutely perfect and a day we will never forget. From the ceremony to our private meal on the beach, everything was simply perfect. Again, this was down the lovely staff did everything they could to make our day special. Food at the hotel was amazing with a vast choice of dishes to choose from. Everything was freshly cooked and the Catering staff clearly took pride in the food they served. Sadly, we witnessed some guests who found fault with the service of some restaurant staff but this was totally unfounded and nothing more than the rudeness of the guests themselves. We particularly enjoyed the Buddha Beach Bar and restaurant. Fantastic food and drinks and again, great service from staff, especially Cedric, Nelson and Jamal. This is a long review yet I don’t think does justice to the experience we had. I have mentioned some staff personally however, all staff from gardeners to cleaners should be praised for their hard work. I can’t wait to return! Read less

They truly give me a great start of the day. Pamela, Isabelle, Loretta and Satyam are a great team, also Anita their yoga teacher is very accomplished. I would like to mention Vanessa from Sun life, she has been very helpful and attentive to us throughout the year.Recently I also have been having yoga and pilatus classes on the jetty at La Pirogue and this proves to be a very relaxing experience as well. All in all a great place for all your fitness requirements. Wishing you all a blessed Xmas and prosperous New Year Read less
