St Lucia, Caribbean

There is only one BodyHoliday! This fabulous resort is known world-wide for its holistic approach to mind-and-body holidays, and it was one of the first hotels to recognise the needs of single travellers. We have partnered with BodyHoliday for many years so we know it intimately and cannot recommend it highly enough.

Bodyholiday is a renowned 5-star luxury all-inclusive resort, with a host of awards over many years including multiple Condé Nast Readers’ Choice accolades, Tripadvisor Hall of Fame status, Tatler, Jet Setter and Wine Spectacular magazine awards.
The resort is unparalleled in terms of its facilities, service, and cuisine. The Wellness Centre is one of the best in the Caribbean.

Live in the USA – Canada or mainland Europe? 

We can offer direct flights from many USA cities and also from Toronto in Canada. In Europe you can fly from London or from Berlin or Amsterdam via Barbados. Please email or call us on +44 289 446 2211 for full details and prices. 

But it’s not just the resort that is fantastic. With fabulous beaches, volcanic twin peaks – the Pitons – and a tropical rainforest, St Lucia comes pretty close to being heaven on earth. So while it might be hard to tear yourself away from BodyHoliday’s idyllic setting and fabulous facilities, a day trip or two, perhaps to Diamond Falls or the drive-in volcano, is well worth the effort.

We offer year-round flexible departures to BodyHoliday, which has a worldwide reputation for looking after single travellers and was one of the first Caribbean resorts to build designated single rooms. Because of this, we trust the resort’s staff to Host on our behalf.

We know that whenever you visit, you will have a memorable holiday, leaving the island revitalised and rejuvenated in body and mind. Many activities and sports are included in the resort’s offering, but please do not feel that you have to be a sporty person to enjoy BodyHoliday: you can do as much or as little as you wish each day.

The Body Holiday

BodyHoliday resort (formerly LeSPORT) offers guests luxurious accommodation across 155 rooms, including 29 purpose-designed Single rooms, and extensive facilities that include a comprehensive Spa. Set on its own private beach area, the spacious resort is carefully planned to provide room for activities as well as quiet spaces for relaxation and meditation.

The resort is well-managed, constantly evolving to offer guests the best experience. The most recent changes include a new juice bar and sushi counter at Wellness Cafe and a refresh of TAO, the Asian fine dining restaurant. All rooms have new air-con units, with further updates in the resort’s luxurious ocean view and ocean front rooms. Behind the scenes, the main kitchen has had a total update to stay ahead of the highest health and hygiene standards.

There are 3 pools: the Cariblue freeform pool, the Infinity pool by the Pavilion, and the Wellness Centre’s holistic pool, plus a designated swimming and snorkelling area at the beach.

The hotel boasts 4 restaurants offering different styles of food from deli-style lunches to the lovely open-sided Cariblue (restaurants not necessarily all open at the same time). At dinner each night, BodyHoliday Hosts arrange tables of 8 exclusively for the enjoyment of single travellers. Because we offer totally flexible departures to the resort, we cannot guarantee whether or not there will be other Friendship Travel guests at the hotel, but you can expect to meet single travellers from all over the world with plenty of opportunities to meet over dinner, in the Spa, by the pool and during activity sessions.

From the watersports centre, the activities team offers group instruction and equipment for a host of sports on and in the water, as well as on land. Activities include water-skiing, windsurfing, sailing, snorkelling, kayaking and scuba diving (one shore dive per day for certified divers), tennis, archery, fencing, yoga, Tai chi, Pilates and other fitness and relaxation classes.

The Wellness Centre (open 364 days a year) offers every guest an initial assessment which forms the basis for a personal programme, and all guests benefit from one complimentary Spa session every full day of the holiday, with a menu of key treatments to meet your needs, including body wraps, massages, facials and other therapies!

The all-inclusive package means that, as well as breakfast, lunch and dinner each day, all soft and alcoholic drinks – including premium brands and champagne – are included. You can even take afternoon tea if you fancy a snack. As you’d expect, the food is fresh and delicious with plenty of healthy options as well as guilty pleasures.

There’s something happening every evening, from welcome cocktails to beach barbecues. The Clubhouse is the main bar, where much of the nightly entertainment takes place and there is also a piano bar which is open until the last guest leaves.
Please note that BodyHoliday permits children aged 12+ during Christmas, Easter and high summer holidays, but operates a 16+ adult-only policy the rest of the year.

April 2020 sees the introduction of a new St Lucia Tourist Accommodation fee, however, The Body Holiday WILL NOT charge their guests any extra for this as their prices remain inclusive of all taxes and charges.

As far as creature comforts are concerned, single travellers are spoiled rotten! The 29 designated Standard Single rooms are spacious, with a king-sized bed, large windows, marble bathroom, air-conditioning, mini-fridge, hair dryer, free WiFi, iPod dock, bathrobe and beach towels.

Location

St Lucia is a tropical Caribbean island of just over 238 square miles, packed with natural beauty from the volcanic cones of the twin Pitons to lush rainforests, dramatic waterfalls and amazing beaches.

Body Holiday is on the north coast of the island with lovely views across the Caribbean Sea. The airport is on the opposite side of the island, and our package includes road transfers to BodyHoliday: helicopter transfers are an exciting alternative at extra cost.

Although you will find it difficult to drag yourself out of resort, we have a wide range of optional excursions that make it easy to discover the volcanoes and jungly interior, catamaran trips along the amazing shoreline in search of dolphins, and activities like golf and horse-riding.

Note that while all necessary equipment is provided at BodyHoliday, your suitcase should include appropriate footwear and sportswear for the activities you will be doing: cycling, jogging, hiking, aerobics, yoga, tennis etc. Your travel pack includes more information.
