Fall For Calabash Cove Resort & Spa on St. Lucia, The Bachelor's ‘Hood

Beguiling, Beachfront Resort Wins Hearts on Caribbean’s Most Romantic Island—the setting for the February 15 Episode of ABC TV’s "The Bachelor."

SAINT LUCIA, February 15, 2010 – St. Lucia captured the hearts of producers for ABC TV’s "The Bachelor", which filmed the episode airing Monday, February 15, on this stunning Caribbean isle known as the "Helen of the West Indies" and recognized as one of the most romantic and intoxicatingly beautiful locales in the world. Come see why with a stay at one of the island’s most beautiful, beguiling resorts—Calabash Cove Resort & Spa.

Nestled on a lush, tropical hillside sloping gently toward the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea, Calabash Cove takes romance to new levels with a secluded white sand beach and custom-designed boardwalk that’s perfect for candlelit dinners or romantic sunset strolls. The resort’s charming and unique accommodations include handcrafted teak and mahogany Water’s Edge Cottages right on the beach, Swim-Up Suites and luxurious Sunset and Ocean View Junior Suites. All accommodations feature private Jacuzzis and many offer private plunge pools, hammocks and outdoor rain showers.

Start your "Bachelor"-style St. Lucia romance retreat with a complimentary bottle of champagne on your balcony or in your Jacuzzi the moment you arrive at Calabash Cove. Picnic on a picturesque, powder-soft beach or take in the landmark Piton mountains’ dramatically soaring peaks, as Jake and Tenley did on their idyllic island date. Or, like Jake and Gia, stroll through one of the island’s quaint and colorful fishing villages, explore the thousand-year-old Pigeon Island nature park, or try your hand at deep sea fishing as you bask under the hot Caribbean sun. To recreate Jake and Vienna’s romantic excursion, take a chartered ride on the Brig Unicorn, one of the yachts used in the film "Pirates of the Caribbean” and stop in the town of Soufrière to see the Diamond waterfalls and Sulphur Springs.

Calabash Cove’s concierge service can help transform your dreams into realities with expert assistance in planning day-trips as you explore the island and each other. When you’re ready to head back to the resort, visit Ti Spa and indulge in some of its rejuvenating treatments, including couples’ massages that combine European techniques with St. Lucia’s rich tradition of plant- and fruit-based curatives. Windsong Restaurant offers seasonally inspired dishes made from the freshest local ingredients and unobstructed ocean views. Complementing Windsong’s elegant milieu is the convivial C-bar, which serves international cocktails and fine wines from the Calabash Cove Cellars. Relax together in Whispers, the resort’s music and reading library, or meander hand-in-hand the quiet walkways of Cove Gardens, an enchanting labyrinth of groves, ponds and terraces alive with fragrant local flora and fauna and the soothing sounds of birds and wind chimes.

In its fourteenth season, the "Bachelor" episode featuring St. Lucia aired on Monday, February 15, at 8/7 Central on ABC. For more information on "The Bachelor" visit the ABC Website.
