Are you dreaming of a destination wedding in St. Lucia after seeing The Bachelor? We can get you there!

Recognized as one of the most romantic places on the planet, the legendary island of Saint Lucia serves as the ideal setting for the final dates of “The Bachelor: On The Wings of Love.”

From cruising the coastal waters to exploring the lush landscapes, Saint Lucia offers Bachelor Jake Pavelka and the three remaining bachelorettes the tropical escape of a lifetime.

What happened last night?

Jake whisks his potential future wife away to Saint Lucia for exciting daytime excursions and unforgettable overnight memories. Each date is filled with emotion and anticipation as Jake learns what his future might be like with each potential mate. At the end of each evening, the Bachelor presents each bachelorette with an invitation to spend the night in a special fantasy suite at Cap Maison, an elegant luxury resort and spa located in the north of Saint Lucia.

Jake and Tenley Explore Historical Properties on Island

For his date with Tenley, the couple take a helicopter ride over the lush tropical scenery of Saint Lucia to view the beauty of the iconic Piton Mountains. After landing at the Balenbouche Estate, the couple enjoy an idyllic picnic with stunning views. Offering complete tranquility and authenticity, The Balenbouche Estate is a historic Caribbean plantation guesthouse located in the southern town of Soufrière.

The two continue to relish their alone time with an intimate dinner at The BodyHoliday LeSPORT, a world renown spa resort located on the beach. Specializing in rejuvenation and relaxation, LeSPORT provides an award-winning dining experience with local and organic fare to help unwind after an exhilarating day.

Jake and Gia Indulge in the Local Island Flavors

Adventure is the focus of the second outing where Jake takes Gia on a fishing trip to Gros Islet. Situated on the cusp of the Rodney Bay Marina, Gros Islet is a colorful fishing village full of island life. The couple delight in the possibility of catching a variety of indigenous sea life like blue marlin, king fish and yellow fin tuna, as they bask under the hot Caribbean sun.

The boating excursion is followed by a casual jaunt through the markets where local vendors offer tourists a variety of handmade memorabilia, spices and foods. After the sights and sounds of the bustling bazaar, Jake and his bachelorette trek to Pigeon Island for a private beach picnic. A 40-acre islet connected to Saint Lucia’s west coast, Pigeon Island is a beautiful nature park which reflects a thousand years of history.

Jake and Vienna Experience Sailing the Caribbean Sea

After the adrenaline rush of fishing, Jake and Vienna are able to unwind with a chartered ride on the Brig Unicorn. “The Brig,” as she is affectionately called, is instantly recognizable as one of the yachts used in such blockbuster movies as Pirates of the Caribbean and Roots.

Aboard the vessel, visitors have the chance to tour the fishing villages of Anse la Raye and Canaries before reaching the town of Soufrière to see the Diamond waterfalls and Sulphur Springs.

Although Jake is having a spectacular time, he is apprehensive as he realizes he has to eliminate one of the women he has fallen for at the rose ceremony the next night. The natural splendor of Saint Lucia makes Jake’s decision even harder as he must say goodbye to one bachelorette and send her home without his heart. Jake and his bachelorettes settle in at either Cap Maison or LeSPORT where they are able to share their true feelings in a private retreat.

Rose Ceremony: Passionate Decisions at Private Luxury Property

Set atop a private ocean-front bluff with panoramic sunset views, Cap Maison is the ideal setting for the traditional rose ceremony. The award-winning property is located in Saint Lucia’s Cap Estate, a secluded section running along Smugglers Cove beach and a preferred choice for discerning guests. The tranquil estate set the stage for a heighted sense of emotion as Jake endured the painstaking process of selecting his final two bachelorettes.
