The Landings Resort & Spa, Saint Lucia — All-Suite Beachfront Luxury on Rodney Bay
Set along an 800-foot stretch of soft white sand on Rodney Bay — at the foot of the Pigeon Island Causeway on the northwest tip of Saint Lucia — The Landings Resort & Spa is the island’s only all-suite resort with its own private yacht marina. Eighty residential-scale suites in one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts, butler service, a 7,000 sq ft Soleil Spa, and four pools sit alongside a 24-hour internal golf-cart shuttle and a calm, beach-shaded setting that has made it a long-time favorite for families and milestone celebrations alike. Book your stay through InterStays for personalized concierge support before, during, and after your trip.
Why guests choose The Landings
The Landings is Saint Lucia’s only all-suite resort built around a private yacht marina — the island’s only marina-resort combination of its kind. Opened in December 2007 as Saint Lucia’s first private residential yacht community, the property has 80 villa-style suites housed in three-story residential buildings, each large enough that the property feels more like a high-end private community than a conventional hotel.
Three things set the resort apart. First, the suites — every one is full-villa scale (from 950 to 2,670 sq ft), with full designer kitchens, separate living and dining areas, in-suite washer/dryers, and private balconies. Second, the 800-foot stretch of white-sand beach is one of the longest privately-managed beaches on the island, with views toward Pigeon Island in one direction and the rest of Rodney Bay in the other. Third, the on-site marina hosts owners and guests arriving by boat — useful for sailors and a striking visual centerpiece for everyone else.
Butler service is included in all Beachfront and Ocean View suites (and available on request for Marina View). The optional Meal-Inclusive plan covers à la carte dining across all four restaurants. The property is family-friendly without being a ‘family resort’ — kids are welcomed and have a dedicated club, but the all-suite design means everyone has space to spread out.

The Landings operates four restaurants and three bar / lounge concepts on property, designed to give you genuine variety without ever leaving the resort. All venues are accessible on the optional Meal-Inclusive plan, with à la carte ordering and seasonal menus.
Suru (formerly The Palms)
Cuisine: Asian fusion — local traditions blended with global flavors
Setting: Open-air patio with marina views; elegant signature dining room
Hours: Dinner only; reservations recommended
Dress code: Resort chic — no swimwear or beachwear
The resort’s signature dining room — recently reconcepted from the original Palms into Suru, an Asian-fusion concept that celebrates both Saint Lucian and Pan-Asian traditions. The setting is one of the most photographed at the resort: open-air patio with silhouettes of palms framing the marina, candlelight, and moonlit beach beyond. Best for special occasions, milestone dinners, and romantic evenings.
The Beach Club Restaurant
Cuisine: Caribbean-themed with French, Asian, and African influences; themed international nights
Setting: All-day beachside restaurant at the water’s edge
Hours: Daily for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
The Beach Club is the resort’s main all-day restaurant, set just off the beach with sea views from every table. Breakfast is buffet-style with à la carte options; lunch and dinner run from casual Caribbean fare through more elaborate themed evenings. Live music and impromptu dance floors make the evenings particularly lively. The adjacent Turquoise Beach Bar serves rum punches and tropical cocktails throughout the day.
Callaloo Beach Bar & Grill
Cuisine: Caribbean farm-to-table — salads, sandwiches, small plates, grilled specialties, signature creole dishes
Setting: Directly on the sand
Hours: Daily for lunch; dinner on select evenings
Named after the iconic Caribbean dish of fresh greens, Callaloo is the relaxed beachfront grill — and a consistent guest favorite. The menu leans into local specialties: jerked mahi sandwiches, tiger shrimp creole, conch salad, breadfruit-and-saltfish croquettes, and bright tropical salads featuring papaya, plantain, and passion fruit. Pair with a Piton beer or a rum punch. Many returning guests describe this as their favorite restaurant on the property.
The Coffee Shop
Cuisine: Coffee, smoothies, juices, pastries, light bites
Setting: Lobby café and roastery
A grab-and-go café in the main lobby — useful for early mornings before excursions, mid-day pick-me-ups, or quiet coffee before the day starts. The roastery offers freshly brewed coffee alongside sweet treats and smoothies.
Bars & lounges
- Viscount Lounge — elegant cocktail bar in the main lobby; cocktails, Champagne, and a refined evening setting
- Turquoise Beach Bar — beachfront rum punches and tropical cocktails alongside The Beach Club
- Callaloo bar — beach-level drinks service throughout the day at Callaloo
In-suite & private dining
Private chef service can be arranged in-suite (useful given the full designer kitchens in every accommodation). The resort can also stock your suite with groceries in advance through its in-suite grocery provisioning service — order ahead and your kitchen is fully provisioned on arrival. There’s a $10 service fee on orders under $50, and prices reflect Saint Lucian retail (typically 2–3x US prices).
6. Optional Meal-Inclusive Plan
The Landings is not all-inclusive by default — most guests book the resort on a room-only or B&B rate. An optional Meal-Inclusive plan can be added to any booking, covering à la carte dining across all four restaurants. The plan also includes house wines by the glass, beer, and cocktails at the bars, and grants access to the resort’s non-motorized water sports program.
Practical notes
- The plan is à la carte — no buffets dictate your evening
- All occupants of the same suite must be on the same plan
- Children’s pricing applies
- Subject to applicable service fee and government VAT
- Reservations recommended at Suru and The Beach Club
Travelers tell us the Meal-Inclusive plan is a strong value pick for stays of 4 nights or longer, especially when you’d otherwise drive into Rodney Bay for dinners. For shorter stays, or for travelers wanting to mix in local restaurants and in-suite cooking, room-only or B&B with the private-chef option often works better. InterStays can help you decide which plan fits your trip.
Soleil Spa
Soleil — named for the Caribbean sun and the warmth that runs through the property — is the resort’s 7,000 sq ft signature spa. Set on the second floor of the lobby pavilion with views over the marina and Caribbean, it features eight treatment rooms (some with private outdoor hydrotherapy terraces), a relaxation lounge, and a full-service beauty salon. The treatment menu spans massages, facials, body wraps and scrubs, and signature rituals like the Rich Honey Bee Wrap and the Isle Classic massage. The Landings positions Soleil as the Caribbean’s only female-focused spa program — though all treatments are available to all guests.
Treatment options
- Eight treatment rooms including couples’ rooms
- Outdoor hydrotherapy terraces in select rooms
- Signature rituals using local ingredients
- Pregnancy-safe treatments available
- In-suite spa treatments arrangeable on request
Sports & Fitness Center
The state-of-the-art Sports & Fitness Center is adjacent to the spa and open 24 hours. It features cardio and strength equipment, group exercise space, and personal training services. Two floodlit tennis courts and pickleball courts round out the on-property sport facilities, with rackets available and lessons bookable through a resident pro.
Beauty Salon
The full-service beauty salon offers hair styling, manicures, pedicures, and bridal beauty services — useful for weddings and special-occasion stays.
The private marina
The Landings is built around its own private yacht marina — Saint Lucia’s only resort marina of its kind, established when the property opened in 2007 as the island’s first private residential yacht community. The marina hosts moorings for resort guests, residence owners, and visiting yachts. For sailors, it’s an unusual ability to keep your vessel steps from your suite. For everyone else, the boats and the marina lights at night are a major part of the resort’s character.
Complimentary water sports

The setting is sheltered and calm with views toward Pigeon Island National Park to one side and the rest of Rodney Bay stretching to the other. The beach is fully serviced with loungers, umbrellas, palapas, and butler beach service. The water is shallow and gentle — particularly good for younger swimmers.

10. Families & Kids
The Landings strikes a deliberate balance — genuinely family-friendly without ever feeling like a family resort. The all-suite design with kitchens and separate bedrooms is part of it: kids can settle into their own room, parents have living space, and meal flexibility is built in. The adults-only pool gives couples and singles a quieter retreat when needed.
Kids & Teens Club
- Complimentary Kids Club for children aged 4 and older
- Daily staff-led activities — arts and crafts, beach games, themed days

Romance Package
The Landings runs a published Romance Package for stays of 4 nights or longer. Standard inclusions are: daily breakfast, private butler service, a bottle of champagne with rose-petal turndown on arrival night, and a one-hour couples’ massage at Soleil Spa. The package is layered with the resort’s standard butler-included Beachfront and Ocean View accommodations.
Honeymoons
Beachfront and Ocean View suites with private plunge pools are the strongest fit for honeymoon stays — particularly the One Bedroom Beachfront category. Private dinners can be arranged on the beach, on the Champagne Deck, and in the Viscount Lounge. The optional Meal-Inclusive plan removes friction from the trip.
Weddings
The Landings hosts destination weddings across multiple venues, including South Beach, the Champagne Deck, the Viscount Lounge, and beachfront garden settings. The wedding team handles licensing, ceremony, reception, and welcome events. The all-suite design also makes the property well-suited to small wedding groups taking over multiple suites in a single building — InterStays can help structure group bookings.
