Stade’s West Indies Rum Distillery

a month ago

Our Stade’s tour day was one of our trip favorites. The distillery was a very cool up-close look at the process of making rum, the tasting was delicious and the beach area on their property is spectacular. The facilities are so nice and clean, they offer a nice variety of tasty food and drinks… and the staff… they are absolutely the nicest humans!!!! Plan to stay and enjoy the quiet, beautiful, private-feeling beach… it was wonderful!

The Manager, Ramon, welcomed us among other friendly staff. Due to the unstable weather patterns caused by tropical storm Jerry, they had emailed us offering to reschedule the tasting due to the poor weather but unfortunately we were already en route when it was sent. Still, they were very accommodating and went ahead with the tasting anyways. Our server, Serai (sorry not sure if spelled that right) was very upbeat and positive despite the looming rain clouds. She provided an informative presentation while serving us 4 different rum samples. We stayed long enough to have lunch and another drink before a significant storm finally hit. Understandably, they had to close up the beach club early, but management offered that we could come back later in the week (once Jerry had passed by) and use the beach club. We took up that offer 4 days later. This facility has a beautiful and quiet beach. They have all the beach club essentials: washrooms(toilets), small but separate changing stalls, indoor showers, lockers, an outdoor shower, some beach loungers with umbrellas, and spacious deck area with additional seating. This was a relaxing experience. Highly recommend this excursion because for $30 US per person as you are getting both the rum tasting and the beach club on a peaceful beach. For $70 US you get a tour of this working distillery along with the tastings and beach club. Just a heads up for families: while the beach is great for flying kites and the ocean has the beautiful green and blue hues, the refreshing water does drop down quickly to 5-6 feet and deeper so might not be the best idea for small children.

We had a great time doing the rum tasting tour at Stade's beach location. It is a really beautiful setting and had a fabulous beach with loungers that is included in the price. We also had lunch there and the food was really good. The weather didn't allow us to enjoy the beach like we hoped but the rum was tasty and the tour guide is adorable. I highly recommend it.

This is the best rum tasting, drinks, food, and beach. The customer service was outstanding. Joy provided exceptional customer service. The rum was good. The food was good. The beach was good. We will return and spend the day here. I highly recommend Stade's.

Great distillery, tour guide was full of positive energy and knowledge. I liked the darker between the barrels part of the tour - felt like going into the heart of the aging rum. Beach and bar is very nice, if you do fancy staying for a swim - also not busy in may when we went. Highly recommend.
