Great Week at St. James

The resort is very nice with amazingly friendly employees. They are doing some updating and once those are all done it will really nice. The 100 building really needs attention. The food was top notch at any restaurant. This resort offered loads of water activities and the activity board was jam packed every day. The beach was a little murky but there are four pools to cool off in.

Loved it at St. James Morgan Bay

We enjoyed our stay at St. James, the property is a little old and needs some updates, but we knew that going in. They service is top notch and the employees were extremely friendly. The food is amazing we didn't have any complaints.

Very good

Nice place to visit. People very friendly and polite. Food and restaurant options good so you must be able to finr something to eat. Minor mechanical issues fixed very quickly. Steep inclines to rooms could make access difficult for some. Drive to and from airport could cause car sickness as roads are very challenging. Beaches well maintained and no problem finding lounges. Pools are kept very clean and inviting.

Beautiful settiing

St. James Club Morgan Bay is the loveliest resort my husband and I have had the good luck to visit. On arrival we were greeted by gracious reception, asked to sit down in the lobby, and provided with cool clothes moistened with mint to refresh our hands and face. Cold drinks were also offered, while we filled out the necessary forms. Then we were taken to our rooms on 'golf carts' and our bags carried upstairs. We stayed in the newer section, which sits up top of a small hill, facing the bay - e [... read more]ach room looks over the ocean. Every detail at SJC is looked after with an eye for detail - the wonderful food, the welcoming and attentive staff, even the uniforms everyone wears are beautiful. Each a la carte restaurant is worth visiting (we did not eat at Le Jardin, which had an additional cost) and ranges from beachside dining, to casual wharfside, and a great Italian restaurant with terrific pizza and pasta. The buffets serve excellent breakfasts and each day at lunch one of the buffets serves a themed lunch: Indian, BBQ etc.... The beach IS small - but perfect for children and adults who just want to splash around. The pool up top is where we spent most of our time. Tip: its quiet with just a few guests until approximately 2 pm. Fresh fruit and cool clothes are offered around 11 pm by the attentive bar staff. We didn't do any organized tours but those we spoke to really enjoyed them. We hired a taxi driver, who we met in Castries to take us on a tour of the lookout points and to Marigot Bay (don't waste your time there - nothing really to see and food is $$$$$). Tip: hiring a local driver independently of the hotel is much much less expensive and is negotiable. However it does mean you have to travel to Castries to find one... Weather was perfect - sunny warm with a perfect breeze and enough clouds to keep it from being unbearably hot. All in all a very pleasant escape to a lovelyresort....

Great resort

this resort is fantastic, the layout is great everything within walking distance. Food was realy good and staff are excellent and rooms clean and good size. Entertainment could have been better but was good for what it was.

Lovely Resort

Everything was close to our room - pools, beach, food, bars. Loved the café - was our favourite place! Grounds are beautiful, food was good and there was a nice variety. Staff were friendly. Entertainment was varied, although maybe a bit loud at times. Great extras included in price - banana boat rides and kayaking. Remember to make reservations for the a la carte restaurants. Outlets for CSA electrical located behind dresser - a bit far from mirror - should have asked for an extension cord.

Great vacation

They keep the grounds in excellent condition ,always sweeping , raking the beach everyday, and the staff were all very friendly and everyone spoke to you made you feel at home.The rooms were always cleaned and clean towels were left . The only complaint is that they need a better sound system and could get better entertainment for the night shows.

Great resort...luv the cafe room, good food.

Nice well kept grounds, luv cafe area, nice pools, good activities altho not busy so sometimes no one around. Staff are very nice, friendly and helpful. Food good,,just wish beach was bigger to be able to walk around more.

Great Time!

Wonderful resort. Very friendly staff. Truly enjoyed our time. Didn't go to the Jardin as we didn't want to pay for a meal at an all inclusive. Beach is on the small side. Overall though, we loved it!!

Our Best Vacation Resort Ever

This smaller resort was fantastic! We have travelled to many larger resorts in the Dominican, Mexico ....this was the best! Food - very good! Grounds well kept! Lovely size! The best part was the staff...they make you feel very welcome and they are very genuine and friendly..........I highly recommend the St James Club in Morgan Bay and we will be back for sure!

Great Vacation !!

We had a wonderful vacation, we were there Jan.25th to Feb. 01st 2015. It's a smaller resort which we loved and it's well maintained. We had an ocean view room, beautiful and clean. The staff was always so very nice, friendly and helpful. There is a good variety of restaurants on the resort and we had no problems reserving at the a la carte restaurants. The food was amazing, something for everyone and there is even some allergies warning on the menus (gluten, dairy, seafood). We had lots of fun, [... read more] but we also got to relax and unwind. All and all, it's a great resort, we had a wonderful time and we highly recommend St.Jame's Club Morgan's bay and St. Lucia.

Fun trip!

Pools were awesome. Restaurants were very good and the buffet always had good variety of food and different dishes every day. Rooms were clean and the views were awesome. Lots of watersports to choose from and lots to do around the resort. Beautiful grounds. Would definetely recommend to anyone.

Nice vacation

Positives - great food! The buffet was smaller than we were use to at most all-inclusives but the food was far better. The alacart restaurants were amazing. Great watersports which were included at no extra charge. Very friendly helpful staff. Best gym and aerobics classes I have been to on vacation. Andrew from the Bamboo restaurant was outstanding. Negatives - dated rooms and shabby lobby. Poor safes in the rooms - key locks which were broken into. This system needs to be replaced. Very hilly [... read more] which was fine for us but if you have any mobility issues this could be a problem. Also be prepared for a long drive from the airport - 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Quiet for the well behaved what a relief.

Great food. Best views of the ocean in the am quiet no obnoxious music around the pool. Very civilized. Wonderful tiny little beach and sitting under the almond trees. Bad point same music in restos all week long!

A Fantastic Stay!!!

Picturesque views, mouthwatering seafood and incredibly friendly staff who made it a 9.5/10 stay. A tropical vacation right out of a fantasy that's well worth the cost! The only thing lacking is a late night place to continue the evening after 11pm.

Relaxing Resort.

After a 90 minute scenic drive we arrived at the resort.The employees are very friendly but it took a long time before we could go to our room because of shortage of carts. The rooms are freshly painted and clean, with very good working airconditioners.There is a mini fridge in the room but when we checked it was empty and you have to buy your own water bottles and pop which was kind of expensive. Our favorite place to hang out was the newly opened coffee bar , the specialty coffees and pastrie [... read more]s are amazing and the girls are great!! Thanks for the super service and smiles. The restaurants are very good as is the buffet. The only thing at the buffet could improve is the temperature of the food. The beach is nice, with lots of things to do. The water is not blue but a bit sandy that doesn't let you see much when you like snorkeling. The free waterskiing and bananaboating are great and the kids loved them. The entertainment is very good we enjoyed the steeldrum bands and the fire limbo dancers very much.

Not All Inclusive

This resort is not all inclusive as they charge extra for premium food and 27 US per person if you want to go to the air conditioned restaurant. The room fridge is not stocked w/ alcohol. Overall the food was okay, my wife was sick from the hamburgers at the kids pool. The kids club was non existent and the water at the beach was not clear the whole time we were there. There is no food after supper so if you get hungry you need to go off resort or wait until breakfast. The elevator was broken, t [... read more]he kids were served alcoholic drinks the first night we were there, thank God we caught it , etc ,etc. If we had paid less it wouldn't have bothered me, but we ended up paying 5700 for two adults and 2 kids under 5 (which barely eat or drink they should have been free). Hence the poor rating and we won't be going back

Outstanding Resort - Highly recommend

We had a ocean view room . . . which was literally steps away from the ocean. We loved everything about this resort: 1.) excellent service 2.) loved that all the activities were included (we learned how to sail), went water skiing a few times 3.) Food was great, lots of variety, fresh salads! I am a bit of a foodie and was very pleased. 4.) never waited in line for anything

St. James Club Margan Bay- I will visit it again

This Hotel was extremely clean and well kept, the staff were amazing and the food was very good. I would recommend the resort the travellers. The islanders were one of the friendliest people I have ever met. You must try the adventure tours.

Average

The hotel was clean and mosquito free. The gym needed updated equipment. Disappointed with the quality of the food and presentation. Was a little bothered by birds flying around the buffet and eating area but I don't think there is much they can do about that since the restaurants are open concept. Staff was friendly and helpful. The entertainment was poor. No wifi in rooms only lobby which was an inconvenience. Elevator was not working had to lift luggage down stairs. St. Lucia's roads are very [... read more] mountainous so if you are prone to being car sick take some graval with you. Overall it was a fun week with friends which made up for the incidentals.
