Oh, what an amazing resort Cap Maison is! My wife and I looked forward to our second visit there, but we were somewhat anxious since we had been here before many years ago, and thought maybe it will have lost some luster over time. Sometimes when you have a great experience once, the second time isn't as good...possibly because you had experienced things anew, the unfamiliar can offer unexpected surprises; or maybe we simply play things up in our memory more than we should. I can tell you that once again though, we were simply blown away by Cap Maison! Yes, the resort is still singularly gorgeous, yes the venue for dining is spectacular, yes, the private roof top pool and huge villa rooms are comfortable and they boast great views...but the very best amenity they have are the amazing staff who work there, and the attention to detail they all extend to everyone. From the beautiful Deverney, their helpful concierge, to Julian and staff at the spa, to Tyler and Darrell at the cliff restaurant, to Bob, the helpful and attentive beach server, and Robert the knowledgeable and friendly Sommelier...even the thorough house cleaning staff...I wish I could list them all! Wow! Always a yes, always a "how can I assist?", never without a smile or open greeting. I truly don't know how they do it...but the entire staff is a collective family who can't wait to embrace you as one of their own. Don't miss dining one night on the small island Rock platform in the middle of the sea, or an intimate and very fun private roof top Barb-q, or the private gazebo breakfast on the cliff, or the tasty wine tasting in the Cellar. The intimate spa lesson experience for couples is so fun, as we learned how to make each other relax with new skills as we learned about the science behind the mechanics of a massage. Do you appreciate a talented bartender who remembers how you prefer your drink? You are covered here! This is the perfect romantic intimate getaway spot for a quiet, intimate, spectacularly luxurious experience. There are other great resorts on this West Indies island of St. Lucia, but I can tell you that Jade Mountain or Anse Chastenet are TWICE the cost as the Cap, and they offer a less personalized relaxing romantically unique experience. If an all inclusive experience is what you are after...The Cap Maison has a package for that here too...but on a scale that Sandals could only dream to provide. Having been married for over thirty years, we know that more than a spark can be found at the Cap; so if you want to bring back the fire of your honeymoon back, just book yourself a trip here as a Christmas present to reward each other...you simply can't do better than this! Sincerely, Charles & Jeanne There are many places we have been in this world, but I can tell you that as far as 5 star resorts go, this one should be on your bucket list for sure.
