Visited St. Lucia with my wife and our friends. Beautiful island. The resort was very nice. Hotel staff were very friendly and accomodating except when you wanted to get change for a $50.00 or $20.00 bill. The resort is a bit tired, but you get over it quick. The food was very good. I tried Mahi-Mahi for the 1st time... More

Smuggler's Cove is a lovely resort. There are 5 pools and all are cleaned regularly (not sure why someone posted below that they are dirty). We used the kids pool the most for our 2 year old and it was fantastic. Never too busy and perfect for little people. The beach has black sand and seaweed, but again was very... More

We just returned from a 7 day vacation at Smugglers Cove, had read the reviews, so were prepared for it to be not top of the heap - and it wasn't, but for the price, it wasn't horrible. The property is bigger than we thought, with the rooms very spread out and while it looks pretty and colourful, there is... More

Have recently returned home from 1 week at this resort. There was a group of 16 of us and we had a great time. The hotel is very nice although some of the rooms are a little tired. Ours was missing its fridge and iron, but I don't iron on holiday so no problem there. The restaurants are all very... More

The staff were all very friendly. I also really enjoyed the extensive number of pools on the resort property. The rooms were very average though. The air conditioner wasn't working for the first 2 days. We also had problems with the patio door not opening. The decor in the rooms was outdated. The food was pretty good, but not as... More

We loved St Lucia, but this resort was "tired" to say the least. Bathrooms in disrepair, public areas unkept. Pools were dirty and dingy, beach area not cleaned lots of rubbish around. Beach chairs broken. Our expectations were not very high having read other reviews before our trip, and we were still disappointed. We are friendly and generous travellers who... More

Easy to see why this place gets mixed reviews - its in a good location and staff friendly. Smaller restaurants good buffet OK but all sometimes under staffed so have to wait. If you got a cheap package you will be laughing but its way over priced if you dont - we had to pay all inclusive fee which was... More
