Castries, St Lucia (June 5, 2007) – Starting June 1, 2007, the Caribbean island of St Lucia is offering big savings and invites Caribbean-Americans to cash in on them. The St Lucia Super Summer Savers promotion plan, an incentive of the St Lucia Tourist Board, gives all visitors, including returning Caribbean nationals, an opportunity to enjoy the beauty and splendour of St Lucia while saving with huge discounts.
All visitors are eligible to receive discounts up to 40 per cent off at participating hotels and up to 25 per cent off tours, attractions, restaurants, golf, spa services and car rentals, while attractive incentives are being offered to the travel agent community.
“While we are offering these incentives to all visitors, we are acutely aware that our overseas Caribbean nationals patronize our destination during the summer period to take part in Carnival celebrations, so the timing is perfect,” said Maria Fowell, the island’s Director of Tourism, who added that the offers are valid until November 30, 2007.
