Sugar Beach, A Viceroy Resort

The Sugar Beach, a Viceroy Resort has scored a failing F rank, making it a hotel to avoid for dog owners visiting Soufriere, St Lucia. Unfortunately, this resort does not offer a welcoming environment for your canine companion. Dogs are not allowed in any of the common areas, including the bar, restaurant, or lounge, which severely limits the experience for dog owners. Additionally, dogs cannot be left unattended in rooms, complicating plans for guests who wish to explore the resort's amenities. The resort lacks essential dog-friendly services and amenities. There are no dog beds, food/water bowls, or treats provided, so you'll need to bring your own supplies. The absence of nearby green spaces or parks further diminishes the convenience for dog owners looking for easy walking areas. Without any dedicated spaces for dogs or additional services like dog-walking or sitting, the resort falls short of providing a comfortable stay for your four-legged friend. The hotel charges a steep fee of USD 150 per stay, which is expensive compared to many other hotels, especially given the lack of amenities and services. The weight limit is 40 pounds (18 kilos), which unfairly restricts medium-sized dog breeds like our founder's Labrador, showing a poor commitment to canine inclusivity. With these limitations and high costs, Sugar Beach is not a dog-friendly choice. To get the best possible room rate, always call the hotel and book directly using +1 758-456-8000, and if you mention that you found them on Roch Dog you might even get a discount.
