Feel the Love: New Romantic Escapes in 2022

January 19, 2022 by 



While traveling during a pandemic remains challenging and ever-changing as we closely monitor protocols and regulations daily, we can still put together a wish list for future travel and plan trips while carefully watching Covid parameters and restrictions. Just because you may not be able to take one of these trips on Valentine’s Day, these are all new, romance-inspired experiences that are doable throughout the year.

Love All Things – Going Vegan in the Caribbean


Whether you’re opting for a plant-based diet for health, environmental, animal-rights or other reasons, travel options for vegans are more accessible and easier to find. If you or your partner are vegan, planning a getaway with vegan-friendly offerings is less cumbersome than it used to be. One of the most popular all-inclusive, adults-only boutique hotels in Saint Lucia, Calabash Cove Resort and Spa now offers an all-vegan dinner for the first time ever. The vegan dinner menu features dishes including Yellow Split Peas Soup with sweet potato, Tempura Cauliflower Bites, Sesame Braised Eggplant, Pan Seared Tofu, Vegetable Stroganoff, Grilled Cinnamon Pineapple and more. The cost is $195USD per couple inclusive of taxes and includes a bottle of Prosecco. The culinary team at Windsong Restaurant can accommodate guests’ special diet needs and personal requests. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, Windsong Restaurant offers an eclectic menu inspired by Asian cuisine using the freshest, local ingredients in every dish. The restaurant offers diverse vegetarian and vegan dishes with an international flare. For more information, visit www.calabashcove.com.

A Festival That Celebrates More Than Music Each year, Saint Lucia comes alive with rhythm, colour, and creativity—and in 2026, the island’s most anticipated cultural celebration promises to be bigger and more inspiring than ever. The Saint Lucia Jazz & Arts Festival , taking place from April 30 to May 10, 2026 , is a vibrant fusion of world-class music, immersive art, and authentic Caribbean culture. For travellers seeking more than just a beach holiday, this iconic festival offers an unforgettable way to experience the soul of Saint Lucia—where every note, every brushstroke, and every performance tells a story. The Saint Lucia Jazz & Arts Festival is far more than a traditional jazz event. Since its beginnings in 1992, it has evolved into one of the Caribbean’s premier cultural showcases, blending genres such as jazz, R&B, reggae, soca, gospel, and pop with theatre, visual arts, and culinary experiences. In 2026, the festival continues this rich tradition with an expanded arts programme running from April 25 to May 15 , transforming the island—especially the capital, Castries—into a living gallery of creativity. Visitors can expect: Open-air art exhibitions and installations Theatre productions and spoken word performances Film showcases highlighting Caribbean storytelling Pop-up performances and cultural activations across the island From bustling city streets to serene coastal communities, the festival invites guests to explore Saint Lucia through its artistic heartbeat.
