Accommodation
HOTELS: St Lucia has a range of accommodation to suit every taste and every budget, from deluxe hotels to self-catering apartments. All-inclusive holidays are also proving very popular and several hotels now offer this option. Most hotels provide some form of entertainment in the evening, from calypso music to the ever-popular limbo dancing. Details are available from hotels’ reservation desks. A government tax of eight per cent and service charge of ten to 15 per cent are added to bills. A leaflet giving hotel and guest-house rates is produced by the St Lucia Hotel and Tourism Association, PO Box 545, Castries (tel: 452 5978; fax: 452 7967; e-mail: slhta@candw.lc; website: www.stluciatravel.com.lc).
The Tourist Board also publishes an accommodation rate sheet. Grading: Many hotels in the Caribbean offer accommodation according to one of a number of plans. AP is American Plan: room with three meals; MAP is Modified American Plan: breakfast and dinner included with the price of the room plus, in some places, British-style afternoon tea; CP is Continental Plan: room and breakfast only; EP is European Plan: room only. Hotels in St Lucia are also graded on a scale from 3 to 5 stars.
GUEST-HOUSES: A wide range is available; some offer self-catering facilities.
