Tropic Breeze founder, Jo Plummer, recently spent a few days at St Lucia’s world class all inclusive lifestyle resort – BodyHoliday. The mantra of “give us your body for a week and we’ll give you back your mind” underpins the resort’s schedule of activities combined with a daily spa treatment … you really can choose to be as active or as relaxed as you please, particularly with the beach and Caribbean Sea temptingly set out before you.

What can I say! It has been a number of years since I last stayed at the BodyHoliday and allowed myself enough time to take part in the extensive list of activities and spa treatments on offer, and I am now kicking myself for leaving it so long as the resort exceeded my expectations yet again. As a solo traveller on this trip, it highlighted how welcoming the resort and the guests are to one another. I had only been in the resort for a few hours before I spotted a familiar face from the airport lounge earlier in the day, which is often the case for many BodyHoliday clients who make friends and return year after year.
I was pleasantly surprised by the level of respect the locals, guests and staff had for the new COVID19 policies and procedures that have been put in place. As expected, masks were worn throughout the journey and in all indoor areas. We were reminded to socially distance and wear a mask where it is not possible but I found that everyone was more than happy to do so. When dining in the restaurant I was shown to my table where I could then remove my mask, and instead of helping myself at the buffet the team now serve you – one of the girls I spoke to during the trip agreed that this was probably a bonus as it meant there was a little more portion control compared to our usual ‘help yourself’ portions!
The Elemis facial was a real treat for me after the long journey wearing a mask, and as it is one of the all-inclusive daily treatments I would definitely recommend booking another one in before your journey home. The following day, I enjoyed a tennis lesson with Neil and a few Tropic Breeze clients then tried my hand at archery which they tell me can help improve patience and focus, whilst helping you relax!
I was extremely lucky to stay in one of the brand new Oasis Villa’s on this trip. Their location on the top of the hill, on the same level as the wellness centre meant I had the same incredible views across Cariblue Bay. Guests who book one of the villas have all the same all-inclusive benefits with the addition of a personal concierge service and the option for one of the chefs from the culinary team to cater for you within the villa – perfect for those celebrating a special occasion during their stay.
Overall, I am so pleased I managed to get back to the BodyHoliday and spend some time enjoying the resort as a guest. If you are looking for a holiday to combine a variety of activities and various opportunities to relax in an understated atmosphere – the BodyHoliday is for you!
