BORRRING
Traveler Review By: A Gentry from Connecticut
Date of Visit: July 2005
We just returned from St. Lucia and I would not recommend the Rex to anyone.
Upon arrival to the island we got jacked by the porter for $10 to move our bags 6 feet to the taxi. Then at the resort our room was clean, but the bed had a horrible musty smell to it and I slept on the little wicker couch in the room for most of the week. I know this is the tropics and have traveled to similar islands before, but the ants were every where in our bathroom.
Then there are the pushy vendors on the beach, it is true that they will leave you alone after you tell them repeatedly that you are not interested; it was like trying to get a telemarketer off the phone, but you can't hang up on these people. If you like to dance and have a good time do not go to the Rex. The place dies after 8pm and their idea of entertainment is to sit and watch some guy play piano. Zzzzzzz We ended up buying a bottle of vodka and drinking in our room at night playing cards.
The staff is very nice, well most of them are, there were a few with a stick up their asses and it was almost like we were bothering them. I think some of the problem with the resort is that we were the only Americans there and everyone else was English. I'm sorry England but you guys wouldn't know a good time if it sat on your face and wiggled. =)
We went off the resort several times and we felt fairly safe during the day, but I wouldn't recommend it at night. It is a 3rd world country and these people are poor so watch your back. I don't know if I would go back to the island, but I do know that I will never stay at a Rex resort again.
So in closing if you want to sit on a beach and do nothing at night, go there. If you want to have a good time at night do not go there. you will be in your room most of the time. By the way what is with the men having to wear pants at night. It was like 400 degrees and we got turned away from one place because my husband was wearing tailored shorts and a linen shirt.
