Royalton Saint Lucia
Chosen for the moment.

Saint Lucia is not a backdrop — it is a deliberate choice. A secured beachfront diplomatic campus at Cap Estate, at the strategic centre of the Eastern Caribbean, housing plenary, the Sovereign Capital Room, ministerial side-rooms, and accredited media in one footprint.
