Tucked away on gently sloping, tropical beachfront on the northwest coast of St. Lucia, Calabash Cove is one of just a few select luxury resorts on this magical Caribbean island. Lush natural surroundings, tranquil privacy and the luxury of impeccable, discrete service invoke the incredible lightness of romance.

Each sumptuous Waters Edge Cottage is replete with private pool for late night dips, outdoor rain shower for tropical sensations, private Jacuzzi for sipping Champagne the right way, and a lazy patio hammock for communing with nature. Dramatic views across the bay with its radiant Caribbean sunsets are certain to command your attention, and the beachfront is but steps away. When night and stars steal across the sky, curl up in the spacious living area as sea breezes drift gently through. Each cottage offers a TV/DVD/hi-fi system, refrigerator, coffee/tea maker, and of course, room service to deliver for-your-eyes-only dining pleasures and drinks.

For your cozy couple’s massage, the resort’s Ti Spa is adjacent to the 40-foot Sweetwater infinity edge pool poised at the bay's edge and the beach. Relaxing and revitalizing treatments combine European technique with St. Lucia’s rich tradition of plant- and fruit-based curatives. Each can be enjoyed in a private treatment room or in the privacy of your room. The spa’s Fitness Centre is outfitted with Cybex cardiovascular equipment, and a beauty salon offers hair treatments and mani - pedi services.

Love is a kind of hunger, as they say. So show off your newly-wed glow at Windsong Restaurant. Offering an international menu with Asian inflections, the fine dining venue specializes in seasonally inspired dishes made from the freshest local ingredients. Unobstructed views across the Caribbean Sea enhance the menu’s sensory delights, and the kitchen’s chef de cuisine aspires to make Windsong the first Michelin star restaurant on the island. Complementing Windsong’s elegant milieu is the convivial C-bar, which serves international cocktails and fine wines from the Calabash Cove Cellars amid lively island music. Let an authentic West Indian Planters Punch stoke your passion or sample C-bar’s signature "Paradiso", made with Crème de Banane, lime, dark rum and pineapple juice.

For a quieter retreat or intense game of chess, Whispers is the resort’s music and reading library. Or meander the quiet walkways of Cove Gardens, an enchanting labyrinth of groves and terraces alive with fragrant local flora and fauna. Recline together to the soothing sounds of birds, crickets and wind chimes.

But the charm of St. Lucia’s natural treasures begs more than observation – take your honey’s hand and get interactive! Area activities offer an endless smorgasbord of adventure and fun. Snorkel or sail the Caribbean’s translucent blue, hike to the summit of a breathtaking Piton, enjoy a romantic picnic by a Love Pond, soak in natural hot springs, ride a zip-line through a rainforest canopy, stroll through a quaint fishing village, view exotic wildlife like giant turtles, search for ancient petroglyphs, cool off under a waterfall, drive into a volcano, rock climb, golf … the list goes on and on with activities to suit every inclination. Calabash Cove’s concierge service will help transform your dreams into realities with expert assistant in planning excursions and day-trips.

With a honeymoon destination like Calash Cove eager to fulfill every whim, even devout bachelors and "never-again" divorcees might reconsider the virtues of the knot.
