Sandals Grande in Saint Lucia's resort is beautiful and all the staff is extremely welcoming. I have plenty of people to mention and that I appreciate from our trip. I traveled with family, and without a spouse, so I was venturing around alone and talking with employees frequently. All the employees are very friendly, talkative, and welcoming, as long as you treat them with respect and love, they'll do the same. Entertainment and night-life was active, however, I would suggest karaoke every other night, if not every single night (only one night of the week), everyone loves drinking and singing together. There were a large variety of options from restaurants, activities, bars, pools, etc., plenty to keep entertained or just relax. Front desk area/spa - Wendy worked the Island Route front desk directly next to the main entrance. I would walk by a few times a day and always get a wave or hello with a smile from her. - Raequelle worked at the main front desk and was so nice to my family and I. She remembered all our names after our first time meeting. She was our host at the returning guest dinner - eating and talking with us throughout the night and we all enjoyed her company and personality. - Kareem and Sherville in the loyalty center were also both very accommodating, polite, and were always smiling. - Keturah gave me my first manicure ever. I had a really fun time talking to her and Madonna during the process. And she did a great job. I would talk to the staff at the spa desk every time I'd walk by and they were all so polite, funny, and helpful. Food and drink servers were constantly serving left and right and most people (guests) aren't as polite and appreciative as they should be. I have a few that were my favorite, made amazing drinks, and just had pleasant conversation with me every time I was with them. However, all the food/drink service staff is wonderful. - Kachel served my first drink the day we got there, and I kept going back to find her throughout the week because she was so sweet and made an amazing special drink. - Saskia & Tylus by the pool bars both were also great and I loved talking and hanging out with both of them all week - Deandra who I believe was training was also super sweet and nice to interact with all week, she worked in the pool bars and at the breakfast restaurant - Kevin, Remy, Matthew, Peter, Twixxy, Vinea, Egbert, and really everyone who worked at these bars was very friendly and helpful. - Sasha and Laurin at the Barefoot restaurant were both very sweet and we had good conversations with both. Diving/snorkeling - Rochelle was one of my favorite people I met. She pushed me to do the Soufriere dive by the Pitons and I saw a turtle just like she said I would :) I would go down to the aqua shop when I had nothing to do just to say hi and talk with Rochelle. - Michael, Ken, and Carola were also in the shop throughout the week and were very helpful and fun. Other employees - Melissa was friendly and happy to talk to - gave us hot sauce and rum samples by the pool and helped us in the gift shop - Tonya was also in the gift shop, very nice, and helped my mom get a palm tree decoration. - Tomica worked in entertainment - I asked her to do my karaoke song with me and she did, which I loved. - Everyone in entertainment was very sweet, energetic, and ran great activities, I just can't remember all the names. The housekeeping was perfect throughout the week also. Everything about this place is awesome, and the lovely staff is what makes it so great. I can't wait to come back some day and see all my friends again :)…
