Popular with celebrating couples, Royal by Rex Resorts is the northernmost of three adjacent partner resorts along Reduit Beach. A breezy, marble-floored lobby with a peaked bleached-wood ceiling, and plush royal-purple seating heralds the style.

Dedicated to health and fitness, rejuvenation and rest, and communal experiences, the resort does not include televisions in guestrooms. During the day, guests often stroll in spa bathrobes. Because the resort attracts Europeans as well as North Americans, topless sunbathing is common. Guests must be aged 16 or older during most of the year; between June 27 and September 25 the minimum age is 12.

The grounds of Almond Smugglers Cove total 26 hectares (65 acres), large enough that guests welcome hopping on the 24-hour shuttle service to get around. With its gently sloped, tropical-garden setting, this St. Lucia resort attracts an international clientele seeking holidays centered around beach and water activities. Its bungalow-style rooms are popular with families.

St. Lucian by Rex Resorts is adjacent to its sister hotel, Royal by Rex Resorts. The resort is conveniently located near shops and attractions along Reduit Beach, a long, sandy beach suitable for children and water sports.

Styled like a plantation house converted to a country inn, this St. Lucia hotel offers moderately priced lodging and a tranquil ambience for travelers seeking poolside relaxation and walking-distance access to Rodney Bay Village's many restaurants. Guests enjoy full access to all facilities at an adjacent 83-room partner hotel.

By offering complimentary wireless Internet access, Coco Palm attracts business travelers as well as vacationers looking for relaxation around the pool and on nearby Reduit Beach. Families come to the hotel in summer.
