Other option could be book one property 5 nights cash (something like Westin JW or Meridien) and then 5 nights at StR. Or just do two rooms at LeMeridien for 10 nights all on points. Room quality, upgrade potential and food are priorities. I think W has the best reef but it’s not the most important aspect. We do want activities like, kayaks and things to keep young people entertained.
Thanks in advance for advice. I’m Ambassador
Depending on exactly when in May you want to go, St Regis has a Free Night + Free Half Board offer on the Marriott STARS rate for stays starting after May 10th 2022. Might be worth taking in to consideration in the calculations, especially when considering the cost of 4 adult transfers between islands. It's certainly the best Bonvoy resort there (along with RC).
