Hi!
My fiancé and I are getting married in Barbados and coming for six nights to St. Lucia for our honeymoon. I have read many reviews and would love to stay at some of the nicer resorts, but they are well out of our price range. We are looking to spend less than $4,000 for an all-inclusive hotel/resort. We are in our late 20s and want to find a balance between privacy and romance and mingling with other fun people. We plan to do excusions around the island, which is why our nightly rate cannot get too high.
Right now, we are considering Rendezvous and Windjammer Landing as the two front-runners. I just came across Ti Kaye today, but it doesn't appear that they have an all-inclusive option. I have found that all-inclusive helps keep a reasonable budget since food and alcohol are already covered, so an all-inclusive is a must.
Heard the Rendezvous is great, but it is mainly retired couples. Not that it is a problem, but I think it would be nice to have the option to socialize and dance a little if we wanted. It doesn't sound like that is an option at Rendezvous, though the Couples Only is definitely appealing.
Windjammer has many mixed reviews about being chaotic and loud, but also a great place with many options for food and activities. I like the more intimate feel of a smaller resort, and I don't know if Windjammer is just too big.
We are going in late June, so hopefully some of the rates will be better since it is a slower season. Any feedback or other options would be welcomed!! We do not want to do a Sandals, though I understand they are beautiful. Just a little too mainstream for us.
Thank you!

Ti Kaye is in a beautiful location, rather remote and has many steps down to the beach, which is a great snorkelling beach BTW.
They do offer meal plans, MAP (modified american plan meaning breakfast and one other meal, usually dinner), so this can help the budget. They have an impressive wine cellar and make fab cocktails. We've not stayed here, but have visited for cocktails and lunch.
Another favourite of mine is Anse Chastanet, it is on a beautiful dark sand beach with snorkelling right off the beach. They offer various meal plans inc AI. Not sure how much it is, but it is not as upscale as some. Some rooms don't have aircon, for me thats not an issue since this location is rather breezy but for some it can be an issue. In this case choose a room with aircon (think the more expensive ones have it). The crowd is a mixture of families, young people and couples, all sorts really, Americans & Europeans. Alot of Caribbean hotels main evening activity is the meal.
Thank you for your feedback! I really appreciate it. Great feedback about the cocktails and views. I will look into their AI plans. Thanks again.
I would second Ti Kaye and Anse Chastanet.
