For some of us, chocolate is a food group.

That means it should be enjoyed daily. If that’s right up your alley, you’ll be interested in the newest promotion from St. Lucia’s Calabash Cove.

The secluded 26-suite hillside resort is celebrating the island’s Chocolate Heritage month in August with a Sweet Days In Paradise package.

The package includes private airport transfers; champagne on arrival; five nights’ bed and breakfast in a sunset ocean-view junior suite; a private champagne dinner featuring an entrée and dessert inspired by the island’s cocoa; and one chocolate scrub and manicure per couple at Ti Spa.

The deal, which is valid for travel June 1 to September 30, 2015, costs $2,490 (a savings of more than $600 – sweet!) and must be booked by August 31st.
