The first view of the main part of the Escape Hotel and Spa is dull and depressing and it doesn’t get much better once you are checked in. The main block general accommodation is well below accepted 4 star standards. The main part of the hotel condition and working amenities would be hard pressed to make a UK one star... more

We stayed at the Escape for the first few days of our honeymoon before moving on to St Lucia. I was a little worried about staying there having read a lot of negative reviews but having blown a lot of money on the St Lucian hotel we couldn't justify the expense of upgrading to Mango bay so we upgraded to... more

We stayed end of June to beginning of July and some previous reviews were concerning however we had a good 10 day deal so overall we had value for money. Our room in the Spa area was faultless and the bathroom immaculate. Unfortunately we did have a wallet USD and £'s stolen from our safe which had a dodgy door... more

We booked this as a last minute deal for 1 week, and were not dissappointed! We stayed in a spa room at the Virgin exclusive Escape Hotel and Spa, Prospect Bay, and it was lovely. The staff were pleasant, the food was very good in both restaurants giving quite a good choice. The spa room was lovely (we heard better... more

We have just returned from the Escape hotel and spa and overall had a lovely holiday. I have to mention first though that we payed only £640 for 10 days all inc which was basically a two for one offer, this left us feeling we had great value for money. We had read the reports on Tripadvisor as usual and... more

We had a very pleasant week at this hotel. It was a great bargain as we booked last minute and it was low season. I have to disagree with the previous reviewer who stated that the hotel is on the East coast. It is actually on the West coast and faces the gorgeous Caribbean Sea and not the choppy Atlantic.... more

I guess if you are reading this review you are thinking of booking your holiday through Virgin, on an all inclusive basis, because that’s the only type of guest that stay in this hotel. 99% of all inclusive hotels are aimed at the budget traveller, and the Escape and Spa is no different. Reading the other reviews does leave you... more

Having read the many bad reviews on this site we would like to say that we having stayed in many expensive hotels throughout the UK and Europe we found that The Escape Hotel & Spa to be the equivalent of anywhere we have previously been. We visited in May 2007 with our daughter; son-in-law; one toddler and one small baby... more

My husband and myself stayed in the Spa rooms at the Escape Hotel, we travelled along with four other adults. I really can't understand the comments made by the person who said the place is not fit for a dog, are you sure you were staying at the Escape Hotel, in our experience the hotel was fabulous and the staff... more

Where do we start!! Depressing place. Room dismal and dirty. Need we say more. Lots of things out of order. e.g. Virgin rep, lift, & spa. more
