Industry Involvement and Awards

Saint Lucia

Saint Lucia offers intimate settings in a genuine, natural landscape of gorgeous palm-fringed beaches, within the rainforest, among embattled ruins or at the foot of the Majestic Piton Mountains.

Saint Lucia, the fairest Caribbean island, with all its rich culture and history is the most enchanting place ever created. While British customs and traditions prevail, there is a decidedly French influence that permeates this paradise island in local accent and rich, refined cuisine.

Why Saint Lucia?

  • The friendliness of people - St. Lucia has been defined as the friendliest people of the Caribbean.
  • Attractions and Amenities - There is an abundance of natural attractions and facilities to keep everyone busy: from walking treks, water-based tours, climbing the Pitons, zip lining, Catamaran, buggy rides, deep sea fishing, whale watching and rum tours.
  • Economic Stability - The St. Lucia currency is tied to the dollar so it’s resilient, and due to the strong economic activities taking place on the Island, a new hotel and resort will be built on the southern part of the Island.
