I would normally load a photo or two but I am using the office computer at The Rendezvous Resort in St. Lucia and cannot connect all the appropriate cables that the operation demands. Oh my…can you tell I’m been reading a Ye Old England novel right now? The operation demands? Very proper I am.
Yesterday I spent the day at the Rendezvous’ sister resort BodyHoliday at the very northern tip of the island. It is another drop-dead gorgeous location with the requisite beach, chattering palms and warm humid breezes.
It too, is an all-inclusive but with a huge emphasis on wellness and sport. There are eight spa treatments included with every week’s stay. This could be my dream place.
Plus everything you could ever want to learn is included; golf lessons, scuba, archery, sailing…it’s all waiting to be tried. And what, you may ask, did Ms. Sportif do?
I lounged by one of the pools near the Indian temple, listening to the steady waterfall sound, had a hot stone restoration treatment, drank yogurt smoothies and finished another book.
I finally roused myself to at least go to a yoga class (judiciously missing the Flat Stomach!! class) and then dined on blackened mahi-mahi accompanied by a lovely Chilean rose wine. I was hosted by Nigel, the general manager of the resort.
Wait. How could I forget the organic ginger semi-freddo surrounded by fresh figs? Oh my…
Back home at The Rendezvous I went to sleep to the sound of waves, tree frogs and crickets.
I’m not sure, but I think I’m really getting into this relaxation thing.
