Ocean Pool Villa Suite

St Lucia is an enchanting tropical destination. Enjoying an average temperature of 29 degrees, the Island is home to untouched greenery, lush rainforests, beautiful mountains and volcanoes, as well as absolutely stunning beaches. The St Lucian people are warm and friendly and love to party, and there is always plenty going on; highlights include the Jazz festival held on Pigeon Island in May and Carnival season takes place in July.

The Landings Resort is nestled on the sun-kissed shores of Pigeon Island Causeway Beach by Rodney Bay on the North side of the Island. The Landings Resort and Spa is one of the most exclusive destinations in St Lucia, and Ocean Pool Villa Suite is in a fantastic spot with tantalising views of lush tropical landscapes over the marina and bay areas.

This first-class resort offers privacy and luxury and a wealth of excellent facilities.
The private beach is gorgeous, with white powdery sands and plenty of sun loungers set up close to clear, calm waters. The non-motorised water sports such as snorkelling and paddle boarding are free, and for an additional charge, there are plenty of exciting motorised water sports to enjoy.

There are wonderful dining options at the Landings, with The Palms serving internationally inspired local dishes, the Beach Club offering casual all-day dining and the Callaloo Beach bar and grill with a farm-to-table concept. Relax with a rum punch or three at the Turquoise Beach Bar, or for a refined tipple, try out the Viscount Lounge with its choice of fine wines, spirits and champagnes.

The resort offers all sorts of onsite entertainment, so whether sunrise yoga calls to you or how to make a rum punch is more your style, there is sure to be something that appeals. Land and sea excursions are easily arranged through the resort and are highly recommended, as St Lucia is a magical destination with mountains, volcanos, waterfalls and scenery that will take your breath away.

The Pigeon Island National Park can be reached over the nearby causeway that was built to link the Island to the mainland. This beautiful nature reserve is full of history and makes for a great day out. Historically this was a highly strategic point for battles throughout the ages, and there are plenty of forts and military landmarks to discover and learn from. This vast park has plenty of green spaces, signposted hiking trails and two peaks that are a hiker’s delight with the gift of spectacular 360 views waiting at the top.

The hustle and bustle of Rodney Bay offers fabulous beaches, lots of shops, bars and restaurants and plenty of things to do and see.

Unforgettable and great fun is the Gros Islet Friday night street party. Locals and tourists gravitate towards traffic-free streets set up with craft stalls and barbeque stalls. Soca and reggae blare from huge speakers as you enjoy a rum punch or beer and decide which fish fry-up to sample. The party atmosphere continues long after sunset, with crowds dancing in the streets.
