St. Lucia is a beautiful Caribbean island boasting picturesque views and unique culture. However, TikToker @soph_sim_travels notes there are some elements to watch out for.
According to this travel enthusiast, St. Lucia is unnecessarily expensive, especially when compared to other Caribbean islands "far more enjoyable and just as beautiful."
She detailed how she spent between $6,000 to $8,000 per week, but she put up with rats by the pool, bad food, dirty rooms, and intrusive staff. It is not clear where she stayed.
She highlighted the rainy weather, travel times, beach vendors, and boring excursions as unsavory. Other travel enthusiasts have also highlighted the disappointing excursions.
