| Ladera
Resort St Lucia. Nestled
1,100 feet up on a sloping hillside overlooking St. Lucia's
Piton mountains and the cobalt vastness of the Caribbean sea,
Ladera is truly one of the most intimate and romantic escapes
anyone could ever wish for or even imagine. With our unique
open-air design, each of our units offer a breathtaking
panoramic view of the mountains and sea, bringing Mother
Nature right into your living room. These unique features
combine to form a vacation experience that is truly special. |

Accommodations
All
units are constructed of tropical hardwoods, stone and tile. Each is
furnished with hand-built 19th century furniture, wicker and
accessories. Decorations come from local artists and craftsmen. The
resorts own botanical garden supplies fresh-cut flowers and living
plants to each unit. Most room categories come outfitted with a
refrigerator and complimentary "welcome stock", Villas include
coffee making facilities.
The
most unique design feature is the integration of the open-air
concept. Each unit is built with only three walls, totally exposing the
westward view from each room to the Piton mountains and the Caribbean
sea, not to mention one of the most romantic sunsets in the entire
Caribbean. Deluxe Suites are open on two opposite sides, exposing an
incredible two-way view.
The
Three bedroom Villas are multi-level and feature either a private
swimming pool or personal plunge pool. The Luxury Villa also features a
stone waterfall that feeds the swimming pool. One and two bedroom suites
each have a personal plunge pool either inside or outside the unit. The
Deluxe One Bedroom Suites showcase a stone waterfall feeding a slightly
larger plunge pool, as well as a spectacular two-way view.
